This reminds me of going fishing with my grandad when I was between 5 and 10. Very rarely saw a fish between us. But the enthusiasm wasn't once dampened. There's so much more knowledge about these days,, that in the warmer months a catch is guaranteed. I had a little chuckle to myself early on in the video when you told us about your rods. My twisted mind saw them as a "pairobolix"...LOL Sorry mate, that's a bit coarse. Never having been to Southfield, I could describe the feeling of willing a fish on the hook, and it not happening. But over the last couple of years, I've the mightiest of anglers come away with a blank, and the guy next door land a couple a bream to about 3lb and take the section! England's own Jamie Harrison is one of those chaps. And like everyone in the sport, he too goes down the "what did I do wrong" route. Anyway Mr. Mighty, I still enjoyed your video, even without car chases and gun action....LOL But then I always do. Take care my friend. TTFN,

Well done Alan, never ever seen southfield res but it looks one massive stretch of water no wonder them bream go missing!! Probably one of them venues with a bit of luck you could win or qualify with halfa dozen pulls .Good luck in all qualifiers pal.cheers.

what camera do you use i think il do more with a days fishing for when the grey cells forget lol also nice feeder fishing in tough conditions i know how that feels watching fish after fish and your fishing the same better luck next time

Hard lines Al, as we all know Southfield can be an unforgiving place to fish but well done getting one regardless. I'm there on Saturday on the long bank but thankfully we're not limited to feeder

Hard luck Alan, great video mate, pity you weren't in one of the other sections you'd be through, fish on mate.

Great video Alan always enjoy watching was that just 12ft feeder u was using or suv?

I would have run to that peg Alen. Looked great. I like, to use squatts when bream fishing they love, em and it keeps them grubbing around for, ages. Better luck next time

Never mind Alan keep your chins up 😉 you'll get there just need a good draw 👍

well done Alan at least you didn't blank, cheers

Tough day Alan, how come you had no corn for a change of bait?

Great video Alan, are these the standard 12ft Black Editions or the SUV version??

You seem to be suffering from the the 2 off situation you last coupl of matche drawn in ok area bu 2 of the fish you luck must change soon fingers crossed for you

hard luck alan you tried your best thats all you can do

Tough day for you Alan,well done anyway.

Another hard day Al,you are due a decent draw

unlucky Alan- next time

Southfield reservoir can be a fickle lady at the best of times as you found out Alan. However it looked like that in Open Match you might have been close to framing. Keep on trying.Good luck

Come on Alan,qualify on next one then you don’t need 8or9 to get through.Just be Mighty mate.

👍🐟👍🍺🍌🐒

never mind al try harder ont next un, them worms are gunna do trick one day?
