😂 Literally just thanked you guys for the tackle tips on the res diary 3 now this dropped. Today is a good day lol tight lines lads.

Thanks for making the best fishing videos in the world

I have been carp fishing for 40 years plus and all this is good solid advice. Your session videos really capture what it’s all about - friends having fun, enjoying the outdoors and sharing a passion for carp fishing. Too often we get drawn into complex rigs and methods, the notion that only very large carp matter etc. but you guys bring it back to basics really well and show how to simply enjoy catching carp. It all reminds me of my early years except carp were less plentiful then and we never had the hair rig! Great to see the future of the sport is in safe hands, keep it up lads!

Your videos are so well produced, can tell you're a young lad with an smart, artistic brain producing genuinely quality fishing videos. Clear, concise, beautiful camera work, and British! Class mate

What I like most about the tutorial vids you guys do is that it's all about good solid advice. Not about pushing products as many others do. They feel more like an ad from a shopping channel. Keep up the good work lads!!

It's definitely a happy day when a new Carl and Alex adventure shows up in my recommendations. Top lads keep on keeping on.👍😊👍🐟🎣

absolutely love all your guys videos, i have said it before and will say it again- The reservoir diaries are some of the best fishing films out there. truly passionate gentlemen about there fishing and you both are a true inspiration to anglers.

Just recently got back into fishing. I used to float fish all the time when I was a kid (only way I was taught) now I'm trying more bottom fishing nd getting into specimen fishing via your tutorials

I have a feeling that you two guys give an ultimatum or advice to Korda to speak buy yourself and talking about fishing on your own way, and not just to promote every single thing from Korda ( i also love they products )...As you say what every you like to fishing is that on the modern ways like deeper etc or on the old fashion way ... Keep it up with nice work and sorry for my bad english .Greetings from Bosnian angler :)

Great video lads thanks for the recap hopefully before fishing opens up again.

awesome video. also really enjoyed the reservoir season 3.

i like every one of your videos before i start them 🤣

Thanks guys great tutorials my boys and I really enjoy them so much keep them coming.

Great bit of info for the guy's and girls out there just starting up carp fishing. Good job.

Cheers guys, informative video into your approach in carp fishing! Enjoy all your films, in my opinion they are the best out there, well filmed and edited. Literary have me on the edge of my seat! Love the latest carp diary's! Especially as it's filmed not far from me! (I won't say ware). This year I look forward to targeting some carp on the river medway and will take what I've learned from you guys onto the bank! A big thanks for all the film's! Joe

Wow you are very knowledgeable about carp fishing. I have been fishing this big and still haven't hooked up with MONSTER carp.

Just watched reservoir diaries season 3. Brilliant film guys, looking for my first 20 this year as my pb carp is 15lb 4oz. This vid will help a lot. By the way how much did the big mirror weigh?

Great tips keep up the amazing videos. love how young you are giving out this top advice just shows never to old to take on some new tricks well done lads👏👏👏

Carl and Alex, love your videos on both channels. So talented at what you do, fishing and editing etc. Anyway, a small request, while we are suffering the lockdown could you make a zig rig tutorial please? Also a possible decent dead bait rig set up, as I will be doing river fishing (hopefully) towards the end of the year. Thank you guys! All the best!

Keep it coming.Thanks guys.

Great video thanks. Me son 8 and I are starting our carp adventure together soon can u do a video of things to do before we leave the house or must haves and myths for first timers please.

Mega video and so is resvoir forays 3 well done chaps

Thanks for the excellent tips guys I'll be fishing larger waters soon

You guys are great I’ve litterateur been watching your videos all day

the best videos in world

Hi guys love watching your videos on KZfaq. And from what I have seen you guys have nothing but love and respect for the fish you catch. I have some very good zander stops that I fish. Here's one for you. You could do a zander and pike video on the canal. As not alot of people fish them now. I would be happy to show you guys a setup I used to catch an 18.6 zander. Thanks for the videos guys. Carl and Alex stay safe and tight lines.

Great upload guys . I live in Australia and enjoy chasing the Carp over summer months . A nice lake to fish 10 minutes always seems to produce .My PB is 17 Lbs but hope to better this over winter . By law we can't return carp we catch to the water as they are classified as vermin here . That aside I enjoy fishing for them as well as Australian native species . Keep up the tutorials they are very informative .

I wonder if your two mates have watched this to get some tips as you took his lake record on one reservoir,went to catch a 40lb common to prove a point and then caught that mirror on reservoir diary 3 😂😂😂

Carl loving it presentation snappy and to the point and more res diary in the background what is there not to like. Thanks as always

like your videos...

Great advice Carl.

What if its really hot? Would the carp also want to go deeper to stay cool?

can you make a video on how you go about catching specimen carp and by the way I love your videos keep it up.

Id like to see how you prep your baits. hemp, maize and a like. 😁

Would love to see you guys to a video on carp care and in particular landing, releasing or retaining large carp. For example when waders aren’t useable and on a lake with a steep bank how would you return a large fish safely. Thanks as always. 👍

10:26 yesterday I went on a 124 acre reservoir and I caught 3 bream and a 15 Lbs 2 Oz common carp on a 10 foot rod

Become a fan of you❤

Excellent video really helped thanks your other videos are amazing aswell

As always great presentation and great advise, stay safe gents and we'll done

Thanks

Great advice as always

Bewl water very good place to fish plenty of carp,pike,perch,trout,tench

love you guys

I enjoyed this 👍

How long did you fish the res?

Great video 🍿🍿🍿🍿

All good advice boys.Another gd video 👌

now during quarantine, could you maybe do a vid about rigs/rig materials for dummys? Like i'm watching all these stores with all these materials and ain't getting how to properly use everything in conjunction with eachother. ain't easy beeing a rookie in the carp scene haha

Great video as always. Hair's getting long mate. You're gonna need 'bangs' like Omi' soon, lol.

great video guys :D

what are your thoughts on fishing adjustable zig rigs on larger lakes

Great info as usual Carl!! What are your thoughts on flouro hooklink?

When its really rocky like the shore line in the vid!! What’s your go to rig? Ps great vid

Hi, I’ve been a fan for ages now, I was wondering for advice on what methods you recommend as normally I target carp up to 15lbs for the last 5 or so years but now I am going to try catch a 20 by the end of this year on this big gravel lake (knotford lagoon Leeds lake) Do you have any tips eg pre bait, what size boilies do you find best, you are my inspirations Eduardo

Hi guys, great video. Do you think you will be doing a video on the method feeder for carp? Or do you have one?

That big scaly carp.. is a magnificent fish..great story...super place to fish that reservoir...did u have any recaptures there?

Just had my pb ghost at 14lb now I want a massive one

Noticed your using a lot of Korda tackle recently, Nash missed out and Korda picked you lads up? Grats if so

I'll try implementing some of these ideas to my local syndicate, 47ft 18 acres and it is damn hard!

Can you record a tutorial about cliping when fishing for big fish? 😊😀

Should you use lots of bait when you first start fishing a big lake.

I'd really like for you guys to turn up at my door :) I live quite close to walthamdtoe reservoirs think you might fish there again ?Oh I see you've been going for catfish lately

You mentioned watching the water dusk and dawn, what should I look for in a 24 hour session ?

I haven’t really fished many big lakes but is don’t know if the gear I have is good enough. I use a big pit reals and 3 12ft 2.75lb test curve. Do you think that would be enough

i have a strange question if you have a boat and want to fish long distance with 10 ft rods taking lines out would be ok or would you rather go with 12ft rods does the 2 ft really make a diffrence

Double

Carl and alex will you ever fish the park lake again keep up the good work tight line's

Which brand of boiles would you recommend because I use Nash instant action

What rods and reels you guys using for the reservoir diaries there ??

Will you do a hook tieing video please

The only gripe I have with this reel is the weight, but that goes with the size of the reel kzfaq.infoUgkxM68VkfsQhHaabDce1IwOCXuvumcpbZ_k . I brought this salmon fishing up in Oswego, NY. I coupled it with a Cabela's Whuppin Stick. I had no problem pulling in a 14lb salmon. I will probably use this for surf fishing this summer and downgrade to a 3500 series Battle II next salmon season to save my wrists. All of the operations are butter smooth and the bail is nice and thick and has a solid flip to it. Everything about this reel is sturdy and strong. The drag system held up to the salmon and was also super smooth. I did use a scale to set the drag properly before going out to the river and this worked out tremendously. A bunch of other guys on the river would hook up and snap almost immediately. Just because you have a good drag system doesn't do anything if you don't set it correctly.

My question could be stupid for someone but can we fishing in any reservoir in UK, thanks.

we can't help sayin that those boilies do not compare overhere with dog bisquits.. it could be the location but at the end it's 95% not on those balls, only in winter time they work with sweet taste and smell.. they love liver and beef like hookbait

can we replace pop ups with soya chunks

Good, basic info on (in the UK) larger waters. Here in Texas we would consider a 60 - 100 acres to be a small lake; much less to be a pond... but your information still holds true. Also, unfortunately, most of our lakes are surrounded by private property so our access is often only in parks or boat ramps. I know several carpers who fish from boats, but that is the exception rather than the rule; most of us are bank fishermen. So, we often “bait and wait”.

Glückwunsch! Du hast einen deutschen Kommentar gefunden.

I’m from Canada and I’m trying to figure out how to fish the great lakes (Lake Ontario specifically). Haven’t tried it yet but I have a feeling that the swim is so large and the fish roam so much that trying to pre-bait will be fruitless. Any ideas?

I have been unable to find a good rod and reel. My last rod snapped on first use. So I was wondering what did u use in your latest reservoir video as the gear looked high quality. (Rod and reel)

Can you do a video on how to use clutch and when to use it

Do you ever use pack bait in the UK?

Hi guys

👍👍👍

I’ve noticed a lot of Korda products in season 3 , any news on the horizon ?

But think I need a drone

Google barragem castelo de bode

hey guys any recommendations on a good 10ft carp rod that wont break the bank cheers?

What reservoir is it you fish

The bigger the lake the closer I fish

Its carl or alex?

Like it . Where is that river where you fished ? Lovely

Would you consider 9 acres a big lake

What if its winter

What rods are they Carl? Infinity’s?

Great video with good solid tips. Brilliant as always. On a more personal note though Carl, Dude you need to either eat more or take better care of yourself, you are looking a bit on the scrawny side! It's either that or the camera angle definitely did you no favours my friend.

What pound test mono do you guys use?

Carl could I ask a phew questions mate

Left a comment on res 3 could u check it out maybe

9:38 what is that?:))

Ooooo I see now you’re with Korda you’re on the daiwa tackle! Spot on lads, Nash is Chinese junk as we all know.
