Sometimes a good adventure is all you really need.. Catching a fish is just a bonus!
Join me as I explore the Isle of Portland, try to take some landscape photographs, make coffee and discover what lurks in the water below...

I'm going through all your vids as I've run out of good camping and nature videos. Your vids are good like the fishing in London upload. But I wish there was less music more nature and less talking

@boyygin75 2 ай бұрын

Talking while the video is rolling is fine. Can't stand the selfie talking which I just skip. It's got to be more about visuals without the need to talk. Just serene nature that city dwellers like me crave for

Couldn't get through it. I made 8 attempts he kept hogging the cam every few minutes, oh there's a twig, oh I stepped on the twig, oh the twig broke, oh it's a twig. I just wanted to see nature and some fishing

Make whatever content makes you happy. Not every video will suit everybody, but that's the beauty of diversity of interests, somewhere, someone will love it. Like several of your followers I came via Carl and Alex/Fish with Carl. I followed C&A from the early days, it was their passion and drive to improve that caught my attention more than the fishing. I buzzed when they buzzed, I was gutted for them when disaster struck. Their videos were personal, and that was the biggest hook (pun intended). Yes your videos so far have contained fishing, but the main theme running throughout them has been "Tom sets himself a challenge, and takes us on the journey with him to beat that challenge". Guess what... I'm loving that, and that's why I will keep coming back.

That means the world mate, that’s the kind of content I will always want to make. Outdoor adventures will most likely always be my ‘theme’ but being able hop between passions I think is important to keep it fresh, be that fishing, hiking or otherwise! That said, I really want to make a carp film next so that may well be my next video!

Hi Tom, amazing video ! Just so you know, you're an amazing camera man and all your videos are great. I've come from Carls fishing channel and love what you are doing here too. Keep up the great work ! 12 videos ? Amazing ! Does it have to be fishing ? No, at the end of the day, if you are passionate about something it will come through on screen. Have a great day 😊

Make the content you want to make, not the content you think you should make for us. I heard someone say that once, or something like that, and I've no idea if it's true lol but it sounds pure and genuine and I will watch whatever you post Tom. I think your videos are beautifully shot and edited and I really enjoyed that. Wish I was there that looked spectacular! And that bass! If it were me that would live longggg in the memory.

@tomwilshaw 4 ай бұрын

haha, there's definitely some truth to it, I think passion comes through the screen and if it's not there people can tell, but I also do want to make things that people want to watch :) If I can do both at the same time, that's a winning recipe! It was awesome, having had the help from the guys on the other rock in the lead up, definitely something I'll aways remember! Portland is definitely worth a visit if you have the ability :)

Saltwater fisherman from New Zealand here, not sure how I ended up following so many fresh water carp fishermen from England. Anyway the two things to look for when fishing salt here is, structure and current. I assume this is a universal principle. Beautifully shot video too.

Great film Tom! Congrats on the Bass. I think just a video about finding somewhere to reflect and making a coffee, to some may not seem like much, but i love doing it as a reset (but not the filming part) and maybe a video about that could be what somebody needs to watch. looking forward to your future content whatever it may be.
