Breaking your own personal best is a feeling of euphoria that very little can beat in angling, it’s something as humans we all strive to achieve; a goal, a target, something grand to aim for. What happens when this goal you set yourself involves hunting down the largest carp in the land, a new British record? Well, you are about to find out just what it takes to achieve this feat, as former British record holder, Oz Holness, rewinds the clocks to the late noughties and reflects on the events that led him to catching the best, and biggest carp in the UK. Set on the banks of the famous Conningbrook in Kent, the scene of the record capture, Oz relays every last detail of a period of angling he described as the toughest high-stakes, game of poker he had ever played!

I miss the old days so much. I wasn’t even a full blown Carper. I just miss the old days. When time was time and so much of today’s strife wasn’t there!! Videos like this take you back there. Perfect!!!!

Try not to waste too much time missing the old days. They are gone. Look to the future. Sure its nice to reminisce, and there are loads of great videos just like this one to chose from, but we can't go back however much we would like to. Heres to the future!

Theses are the REAL carp angling tales/videos that really get the juices flowing, lakes where PROPER carp anglers have been laney,chilly and oz with real adventures and some absolutely mega fish like 2 tone etc .. these are the tales that I look forward to and the passion in which oz has in his eyes I can relate to which inspires me and helps me improve and motivate as an angler well done on this one 🐟🙏👍

Absolutely love watching Oz fish such a wicked angler I've been fishing since I was 11 years old carp fishing over 30 years last year I had most of my gear nicked apart from 2 rods and a bed chair I haven't been able to afford to replace my stuff yet this year mentally has absolutely ruined me I can't wait to get out again .

living in the USA for many years now and still in pursuits of what we are so passionate about. Growing up right on the door step of the brook. This venue and like many other Kent waters, it’s so nice to enjoy it still from afar. Thank you for producing this and for sharing with us all. As always a fantastic watch and listen delivered by Oz. 🙌🏻 lovely times.

@@Itwasntalieitwastrueinmymind yeah, the genetic chain here in the USA is far from the Uk or European venues standards… by a long way off. One day perhaps… way to much competitive feeding over here… thin the Hurd a little and maybe some better results may be had.

Man I just sat through this entire video and couldn't put the phone down. This was a journey that you took and it all worked out in the end. Absolutely amazing capture to join the handful of anglers to have the tale of everything that goes into catching a fish like that. I'm in the us and have a few ponds where I know there are 60 to 70 pound fish swimming around and not pressured. I've had a couple of friends that want me to try in one of them to catch a pb for sure. I've been lucky enough after 40 years carp fishing to have a 57 lb 14 oz caught in 08. After watching this I feel inspired to give it a shot but I know how much of an undertaking it will be. I've fished the pond many times over the years n not seen any of the larger fish I know are there. It's gonna take a campaign such as yours and time devoted to just that. I only hope if I have the chance that I catch one like you did. It must be soothing to the soul to go back to that place n just sit there and reflect years in the making to know you caught the biggest that was offered at the time. Well done my friend. Well done.

Lovely lake. I think it’s amazing how mid Kent have let it go down the pan. Loggy junior really is on a self destruct mission for mid Kent. Allegedly Moving fish legally from other waters and stocking stunted commons into such a prestigious water shows the total Disregard he has. Oz is too nice to get involved and keeps his head below the parapet but he can’t be happy. A water like that should be a water you nurture and make the most of even when the bigguns are gone. A decent stocking programme over years not a alleged smash and grab from other lakes when you loose the lease. Sooner mid Kent are gone completely the better, then hopefully someone will bring these lakes back to some kind of carp syndicate and make some progress.

Great vid and story but tbh outside of the conningbrook anglers it became a bit of a joke at the time ..amazing Carp but it got caught too much and at the end the captures were not taken too seriously it was just like oh Two tones out again a few ounces biiger lol Now the Burghfield Common thats a different level
