Match Fishing - Fishing An OPEN MATCH!
For this latest episode we're back at Reepham fisheries for one of their Tuesday open matches!
Pitting our wits against 15 other anglers, we filmed the whole thing from start to finish to give you an idea of the thought process and decisions Steve makes in a match fishing situation.
To find out exactly how we got on and to see if Steve managed to get amongst the money, then watch the latest episode from the waters edge…
As usual we hope you enjoy it and any feedback is always much appreciated.

Used to love freshwater match fishing. I did so much though it became all consuming. Gave up and concentrated on my beach fishing. Great video.

Nice video but as others have said not my type of fishing, I like to sit and relax and enjoy tranquil fishing. Nice and steady no rushing or continually looking what others have caught. Start when I want to start and finish when I want to, but we are all individuals I just go to de stress and relax but I’m not slagging off those that do matches. Nice informative video and looks a lovely venue

Great video. Sorry if I missed it but just a couple of observations. 1) Just at the preamble perhaps just mention your findings from plumbing your swim so we can picture why you have chosen the lines you have 2) I didn’t see or hear reasons for not fishing a standard 10 - 2 and a longer line. I get the long line slows down fish retrieval and fishing short always pays dividends if the fish are there. Just wondered if you edited out your longer line?

@FromTheWatersEdgeTV 3 жыл бұрын

Great questions Mark, I'll try and get Steve to answer them for you. :-)

All this gear englishmen use to fish. Keeping things simple lol. Literally using gear some of us Yankees have never even seen. Depends on what I'm fishing. Saltwater passes on shore lately. Bring 1 pole rigged for big fish & one pole for little fish. Gear bag & water. I love Carp fishing, used to live in Chicago & the rivers in my hometown have huge huge huge carp. I've seen some if the world's largest common carp caught. So big if you dont have 80lb 100lb Power Pro super braid you're not going to land these beasts. Thats is so fun I wish to do it again. Just so dangerous & sketchy down by the river at night. Once met a couple from England carping on the river one night hooked up on Instagram. I would love to catch a Mirror Carp. Never saw one in person. They're here in the U.S. but they're very rare & only in a few areas on the east coast Virginia D.C. area.

Haha, things are certainly a little different here! I must say I'm very jealous of some of your fishing opportunities over in the states though. Hope you've been catching a few fish and nice to hear from you all the way over in the US! :-)

@@FromTheWatersEdgeTV Literally had my best day fishing ever in Florida 3 days ago. Landed 7 huge Snook. Lost one that was over 40 inches, snapped 80lb Japanese 8 braid and a 50lb leader. I catch them. Would love to catch one of those Tench fish, they look pretty cool & I know they'd be fun to catch. What is it like in the UK? Can you go fishing anywhere there is water? Do you need to have permission to fish? Must you fish at a fisherie or a place thats set up for people to come? I've seen videos, where people are fishing at designated areas! Is this just the norm? Sorry for all the questions as I am just curious to hear it from a person who actually lives and fishes there!

Match fishing is what will eventually get our hobby/ sport banned like fox hunting . Carp fisherman take such good care of the fish to then have match fisherman whacking them off metal seatboxes to chucking them in tubs to be weighed . Disgusting

@hunter111uk 4 жыл бұрын

@@Samyy-mo9no Sadly it's not just Match anglers. At local fisheries I see anglers using a Pole or Whip to catch Carp and just hauling them straight in with no attempt to play them. Many of the Carp are badly damaged and I've seen some with their lips torn off!

I disagree he’s making a video otherwise he wouldn’t be handling them at all,rewatch it and you’ll notice every fish is put in nets via nets with minimal or no handling,these guys know what they are expected to do regarding fish welfare.the guys who are weighing them in are the fishery owners generally,everyone of the fish swam away uninjured by my viewing and maybe enjoyed the day out😃
