"I'd rather hit them early and lose them, than risk deep hooking one." Amen brother, totally agree. Well said.

Over the years I find that I've gone from wanting to catch the most fish and the largest fish to hoping that those fishing with me have the best time. I still want to catch big fish and/or a lot of them, but seeing those with me light up when they bring in a nice bag is a great feeling.

Thank you korda for bringing us viewers the best fishing moments with Carl and Alex ever I'm gutted Alex has stepped back they made great viewing together

Never been into carp. My first Pike still sticks in my memory. Frosty and foggy morning with a spinner and absolutely fell in love with Pike.

If I was any more Aussie I would bleed vegemite yet I never get bored with watching videos about fish we don’t have in Australia because the quality, inspiration and entertainment value of your work is so good 😎🎣👍

Carl and Alex are inspirational legends. ❤️✔️

One of the best angling presenters on social media. Intelligent, articulate and without pretentious over excited hype. Brilliant videos. Korda you are onto a winner with this brand ambassador

The more I watch your videos, the more I wish I was able to get out and go fishing again. But, I thoroughly enjoy seeing you and your friends catching the big, and small fish. Please keep the videos coming, and have fun.

It's so nice to see you Carl enjoying other people catching fish. When I go fishing with a friend we always say that we caught fish as we get back home, even when I did not catch anything and my friend did. It is the experience together and spending time with friends. Then it doesn't matter who catches fish. Love your videos Carl and Alex!

what an absolute surprise and a pleasure to see my local river where i learned to fish 40 yrs ago and where i worked for 32 years being fished by such enthusiastic lads and what fantastic catches you had. well done

I don’t think Carl and Alex have ever produced a rubbish video, they are all entertaining.

Yet again, another fantastic video! Well filmed and edited as well as presented! Very well done guys! One of my favourite channels by far!

Amazing dudes - i just love how you are with the fish and how you treat the in the correct way, you are always so clear in what you teach and show us .. many thanks

Fishing and friendship sums it up perfectly Carl. A very heartfelt way to end a great video. Life's not always about ourselves but often about the small things we can do for others. A much nicer way to live

Many years ago I caught a 21lb pike on the river derwent in Spondon. There were also dozens of perch at 3lb plus. Amazing how all these predators were concentrated all in one place.

Well done lads, admire your dedication, took me back 60 years, my Pike days, now I fish for the fun, the scenery, and the table, those Pike days were my springboard to a love of those isolated beutifull places, for away from the mad world.

Awesome to have early access... Thanks once again gents!!! Stunning viewing! Waiting patiently for the BIG news...

Dan yeoman is such a great guy. So humble. Sweet video boys keep it going ! River piking is my favourite type of dangling

Those pike you landed were so chill! Almost like they were happy to pose for the camera :-) just stumbled on your channel - your editing is so great! Im not even particularly into fishing but that was really nice to watch. Cheers from Amsterdam!

I started fishing only around 5 months ago. I knew pretty much nothing about knots and pike and carp and ect. I knew how hooks work and approximately what i need to do when fish bites (lift the rod and reel in). Thats it. Fishing Tutorials and this chanel litteraly taught me all the knots and strategies and everything about the gear i need to have. You guys are my teachers and my inspiration and i am very gratefull to you. So far my biggest pike was 17.5lb and any spare time i have i go fishing. Most of my gear is Korda as well because it's your sponsor ;) and you have no idea how many lures I have lost in snags and trees and bushes while trying to learn how to cast :D it would be amazing to go fishing with you guys, would be amazing to learn more from the best :)

I’m in love with your videos because you’ve shown the beautiful picture of your homeland-those pictures of riverside and bridges & pounds and fields in late fall time..-thanks guys one more time and tight lines 👊👊

Best fishing boys on the internet in England. Thanks Carl and Alex. Had nights and nights of Fun just watching you and learning from you. Thanks boys.

Llandegfedd Reservoir near Usk/Pontypool in South Wales used to have some monster Pike! IIRC its where the UK record of 45 or 46lbs was caught! I'm going back a few years because I've lived in the USA for 23 yrs. We catch pike on the Yampa River near Steamboat Springs in Colorado..... but they aren't all that big. Great video Carl 🤙🍻

good to see some fellow pike lovers who treat he fish with respect, tight lines

Well done Carl 👏 hopefully you get a big pike soon and the pond is looking amazing 🤩 cannot wait until it's done 👍

These videos never fail to put a smile on my face! Once again, thanks guys!

Fantastic video guys. Fascinating to hear you talk about the change of the tide being the productive period for a bite. I live in Australia now and a hugely sought after fish here is the Mulloway, or sometimes called jewfish. They are also a finely tuned predator and are best targeted during the tide change where the water is slack. The theory being they can attack bait without expending too much energy due to the slack water. They then return to shelter from the current again and repeat

“My friend Dan” = Superstar carp angler and all round heartthrob Dan Yeomans. Great video, enjoyed that.

Those pike you have over there in the U.K. are gorgeous! Well done Dan.

I love the triple S. Small stream surprisings. After i caught a 35 pound mirror in my tiny homestretch river, where mostly brown and rainbow trout lives, i never ever underestimate them. Much love guys, stay well.

I love your guys videos and they brighten my day and seeing you guys always put a smile on my face.

Your attitude towards other people catching is really good to watch.

Great video guys i love supporting both of you

I don't fish anymore but, i'm envious of the fun and the thrill of your fishing.

Love Pike fishing, great video!

well done again boy's, nice video and had fun with a mate, thank you,👍👍

Just had this pop up on my KZfaq algorithm. Great video, well shot and narrated. Enjoyed it.

Well done Carl & Alex ! I wish Winter will soon over and you have more fish !

another enjoyable video. Just great to listen to your stories and imagine my next fishing trip

Saw the notification as I woke up and for a moment thought I'd slept until 12. Great video lads!

😂😂 I like your thinking if you are the only one there 😂😂. Lovely video guys and some bostin pike. Fair play to Korda for supporting you both. Very much a great decision for them and us all 👍.

Cracking video lads. Nice to see Dan fishing for a change and glad your still all friends.

Korda- Pay this man the world, he’s the ideal representative. Such a cool channel

Yes been waiting for this video all morning so far and watching now

Wow, great video. What a lovely river, it must be in a really healthy condition to support so many fine looking predators. Top stuff 👍

Another great video guys, you’ve been on fire at the moment and can’t wait until Carl’s pond is finished.

Thanks Carl. Great video and some amazing fish!

As I got to the end of the video I realised I still had a smile on my face beautiful to watch great fishing lads ide love to try and catch pike myself keep up the videos 👍

Thanks boys for the early access 👌

Thanks for early access guys! You’re so gracious in your fishing Carl. Wish I had a mate like you to go with, and leave all the bigguns for me 😀

Cracking fish Carl! I’m not jealous…..he lied! 😂👍🏻

Brilliant video Carl ,Great looking place to fish , right up my street . Great place for stress release. Nice one

Thank you Carl and Alex for your fishing tips I court so many fish

New subscriber. Thanks for taking us along on a great fishing adventure. You definitely know how to put together a very good video. I am looking forward to watching your previous videos as well as your new ones. Your channel is definitely underrated, you should easily be over a million subscribers based on the quality of your videos.

Great video yet again Carl. I’m exited to see the future of the channel :) you have got to get 500k subs soon enough ! :)

Absolutely beautiful fish. Pike never cease to amaze me. Great vid guys as always

Your day will come, Carl. Gives the pike time to grow huge! 👍

Another great video thanks for the content

I've just found your channel and really enjoyed the format and your guests seemed like swell mates... thanks for sharing your adventure

Can’t wait for y’all to come to Merica we have great Pike and Muskie fishing along with trout and bass, it’s a great time

I find your how to blog very informative at the moment my 30 lb carp season is over for another Year so looking forward to next year when the 30 lb quest will begin again I am a 64 year old carp fanatic and call myself Crazy Carper anyway keep doing what your doing tight lines.

One of the best quotes I have ever read, “Some men fish all their lives without realising it’s not fish they are after”

Great video! At least one of Dan’s dreams came true!

It was refreshing to see you catch something other than carp Carl😃. Nice fish, great spot, hope to see you catch some more different kinds of fish 😃

what great frienships you share your time fishing with. My grandpa was my fishing partner, those are memories I cherish (even if he caught the biggest and the most)!

This is one of the very few channels that I'm subscribed to that i hit the "like" button before I hit play.

Now that is a good, good friend.

Well done Have a nice week and can't wait for your next video

Great video guys. Need to do a bit of pike fishing one day 👏🏻🙌🏻

That's a proper Croc mate! Definitely the big girl on the block! 👍👌 im a piker and yeah there getting harder and harder to find those big pike in the rivers, my p.b is 26 from a small muddy drain, my biggest was 32 from wintersett reservoir, and it was late summer! On a ledgerd live roach. Love your vids mate :) you keep it real, no acting for the camera, my daily watch now on a night 🍁 awesome job bro! I'll be watching for your 40lb British pike 😁👍

Fishing like this, takes away the fun in feeling the bite

YO!!! That was an epic session,thanks guys 👏🏼

Great watch as always……thanks & well done.

Love your videos it was my birthday yesterday and have some new pike fishing equipment so I'm going to be getting out on the bank a lot over the next. I also want to say thank you for the amazing videos

Damn, I started fishing pike when I was a small boy. Where I come from people encouraged the boys to take out the pikes in certain rivers , to make more room for trout. So I probably have killed tons of pikes and thrown into the woods. That changed with time... nowdays its catch and release, way more fun and healthy for the river system:)

Gorgeous fish

This was so much fun to watch, I have not Pike fished for many yeras, thanks for this, soon time to catch a monster fish from my river thames, all the best guys.

I agree early access is great, thanks guys 👍

I love your videos it really helps me because I have only just started fishing.

i had to persuade my dad to sub to you i did on my phone my laptop and even my mum said yes😂

Stunning creatures. hands up who remembers their first ever pike site? Just seen or caught....maters not... - - mine was, sadly, dead, on the edge of a reservoir in kent. a true Goliath. The child in me says 5 foot nose to tail. Im sure it was way way less, but, Id never seen a fish anywhere near that size. Bitter sweet experience that. Great vid chaps. Again!

Another great video, well done guys keep it up best fishing channel on KZfaq

Great video and some cracking pike!!!! 🎣😎🐟

Great video guys

Superb video lads - really enjoyed that. 👍

Great vlog gents. Carl you need to take Omi next time. I want to see her face when she hooks a massive pike 🤣 your luck will change soon matey. Keep up the great content 👍

Just found a new fishing channel. Nice one guys - great catching ✌🏼

A smashing start to the weekend, absolutely superb viewing as always, there’s a place called Talkin Tarn which you guys should make time to visit, large Pike and monster Perch lurk within…

incredible footage as usual.. what a fish..nice work overall too

When I still lived in England Ioved Pike fishing in the local canals and rivers. Such a beautiful fish. I live in New Zealand now and we've pretty much got Trout and Salmon and that's about it. The sea fishing is amazing though.

First time catching your show. Very nice!

Awesome video! Learnt a lot about tidal rivers

Carl, what a nice fish. The best part of fishing somtimes is hanging out with your friends. If you ever get to Washington State, get in touch. I will take you fishing out in the San Juan Islands.

great fishing. thanks for posting.

The patterns on some of those pike are absolutely beautiful! Much different from the fish here in the Midwest USA

Can’t wait to try a bit of that to long carping need to just fish again iv missed it far to much great watch again lads 👍🏻✌🏻

Brilliant pike films !! 😀🥇🐟🐠

Quality fishing! What a pike! Thats it, im hitting my canal tomorrow 😊

Ive been fished in by thumbnails recently and I was worried that the only thing getting caught here was myself with (click) bait. I was pleasantly surprised . This is presented so well . I work in TV. I also had no idea there were pike in Europe . Thought it was only a North American species. If you are fishing in tidal rivers does that mean theyre in brackish water? And ive fished in very remote Canada by float plane, at least 500 kms from other humans or even old mining towns. . We dont do any better than you. . Athough a guy with us caught a 52 lb musky . Teeth like a Doberman. I was always last in the water after that. Afterall, we bathed in there :) . Great video 👍

Great video great pike look forward to you Carl catching another crocodile bigger than the one in the film
