Imagine loving an activity so much that you pass out before you stop 😂🤣 thats certainly a level of dedication that I cannot relate to, glad Alex is ok 💪

You guys have amazing videos, but what really fascinates me is the differences between UK and US fishing. I found your channel while looking for an explanation of feeder fishing, which is something that I've never heard of being done in the US, mainly because we don't target carp as a sport species. In fact, a lot of US anglers consider carp a nuisance species! The chub and dace you're targeting in this video are nothing more than bait stealers and catfish cutbait here in the states. No one really intends to catch them unless it's to use them to catch bigger fish (our largest minnow species is Fallfish, and I have a great appreciation for them, but no one else seems to care, lol)! Your tackle and techniques are so drastically different; I would never think of using a rod 12' in length unless it was a fly fishing rod, and one for nymphing at that. I'm not even sure it's legal in all 50 states to use groundbait. Maggots aren't a go-to live bait for us, we mostly use worms or nightcrawlers. It's always cool to me to see how things are done across the pond.

For all you budding anglers out there. I'd also suggest (winter days/nights) taking a large flask of tea & decent warm clothing beanie and neck warmers with you, for the very reasons Alex succumbed to. He was lucky not to of fallen in, doubly lucky Carl was with him. Hypothermia is serious stuff. Summer take the flasks & fill with cold liquids. As always guys, great uploads! 👍

Thanks just taking fishing back up but not as a avid pro approach but merely to get out in the landscape and enjoy simple fishing so these videos for me are brilliant

Exactly how I also started, ever since my first fish caught I never stopped turned into a great obsession to the point where I saved up bought a boat and now I can say boating has opened a new door to fishing for me. Another great Video by the Best Bro's on RU-vid. Always a pleasure to watch!

thats why i love so tiny streams, it makes a lot fun and you can catch some awesome fish

A continued thanks for your content, both. Getting me through what has been a stressful time and perfect for winding down and taking a breather! ❤️

Hey Carl & Alex! First of all i love your video's about fishing. you guys present fishing in a nice, calm and informative way. i absolute appreciate the tips and tricks you give to the people on RU-vid. And give people who love to fish the best chances to catch something their selves. Thank you for making and sharing these video's and keep it up! Greetings from the Netherlands! Fish on!

Great video as always lads! Great advice, THANK YOU!

Love the explanation about knowing when to float fish and when to use the feeder. I haven't tried feeder fishing but having watched this going to for sure give it a try this year. Cheers lads.

🤣🤣🤣watching this and you just saying about the book Carl did just reminded me to by it so I just did and looking forward to it. you see iv carp fished for so long iv forgot all the river fishing now iv got the kit and a book to help so thanks lads I’m looking forward to learning loads again and having fun along the way keep up your good work 👍🏻✌🏻

I fish small rivers and streams more than anything else. So I really enjoy this video. Great work 👍

Maggots may not have a mind like a human but I've known some humans with the mind of a maggot. "Two thousand years later" I love it!!!! Great jobs as usual.

Love your videos ! Thank you for your work

Fishing like this is how I spent my Saturdays through the 70s......watching your float sends me back

Breakfast and a Carl & Alex video. Perfect start to the weekend 👍 Great video lads.

Love these little small stream sessions reminds me of been a kid trying to get little minnows and sticklebacks those were the days ❤️

Just what I needed Saturday morning 👌

Always a pleasure 😊, thanks 😊

Nice bit o relaxing fishing to watch. Lovely mixed bag of fish Alex, good float fishing too.( Beautiful Chub ) And as for you Carl great feeder fishing, Lovely roach, nice info As well 👍 .

You alright lads, once again another amazing vid, keep up the good work

Love the Red Fin!!! I was fishing last week for em in a place called Lane Pool Dwellingup, I used a spinner or a Z-Man bronze grub and a Z-Man streakZ. I got three Red Fin and one Cobbler, I put the Cobbler back and we had the three Red Fin for dinner that night, we shared them with the people camping just down the road from us as we had ample. The Red Fin are classed as invasive species in this part of the world so no size or bag limitations. I just found your channel, very enjoyable. All the best from Western Australia!!!

Great video 👍🏼🎣

Another epic vid 💯💯

Love the little blooper at the end :D Feel free to include more behind the scenes/removed cuts!

Awesome guys ..

I absolutely loved this video well done 👍

Good fun those little streams...my resolution for many new years now is to calmly alertly abide in dog packed fishing area's. My philosophy for this year is to not be gutted when I loose a very large beautiful carp in a river where they are very very hard to come by....as happened 2 hrs ago.. barbless hook came out at bank..fumbling with net...rarher to see it as an interesting learning experience...

Great Vid! You guys are very cool brothers!!!

I have just moved back from Canada and I can't wait to get out and do some small river fishing, I have missed it so much.. What a beautiful spot this is, really enjoyed watching this video, very professional

the quality is insane well done!

Another quality vid! I liked the text comments ! Don’t remember seeing those before.

I could sit the whole day on that little pool and not be bored

Great fishing

Ohhhhhh they are brothers looooool!!!

very good again boy's, lots of fish in those little river's if you have some near you, 👍thank you

Good video. Thanks a lot.

The dedication of Carl 😂😂

Nice Carl and alex

muito bom sou do brasil gosto muito desse canal tem videos top demais tmj abraço

Great tip re the open bale arm for trotting, many thanks

You guys should do Carl and Alex bloopers.

1 for sorrow, 2 for joy, 3 for a girl, 4 for a boy, 5 for silver, 6 for gold, 7 for a secret never to be told.

Great. Video fun way of fishing

I like float fishing very fun

" I've got a chub, a baby chub" yeah what about the fishing 🤣🤣🤣👍👍

this takes me a back... float fishing on moving water, rivers and streams like this really is medicine for the mind...

this is how I started fishing with my grandfather and father both now gone brings back happy memories well ones without the birdsnest tangles anyway thanks guys and keep up the good work love the channel

I am a big fan of your channel for years now. Love ur passion for fishing. Will be awesome to see you guys fishing with hard artificial baits such crankbaits amd so on, where I live maggots and worms as very expensive, so feeders are no option for me. Cheers from Switzerland

Since you mentioned the book you should sell prints the art work is stunning 👍

Nice 👌

Good video (Like always)

alex the hero, saving carl 😍

recasting regularly is also great in the ocan with bait

Hi guys new to fishing, loving your video. Could you do a tutorial on a good all round set up. For a bit of float fishing, a bit of lure fishing and a bit of feeder. One rod to rule them all as such. I’m fly fisherman mainly but would love to have a go a the rest just don’t fancy spending a lot. Or if you want to do a series of take a beginner to intermediate then in your man. Thanks again

The book is really good

Alex-Man on the rescue 🦸‍♂️

TF gear do a fantastic centrepin reel that would be beautiful to use on such a stream.

could you guys do a video on river fishing float set up??

Almost looks like Spring over there .

Great content , our little steams are much smaller than the streams in this vid . Fishing wild Brook Trout in our little steams is more like hunting than fishing . Many of our small streams can't be casted , you drop the bait in .

Hi guys great vid exactly what fishing should be, where is this stream you done the feeder fishing would love to take my boy he’d love it cheers guys keep it up 👍🏼

Nice video 🙂👍

A great video, I can't wait to get fishing again. I'm looking for a light weight rod and reel for light float fishing and small lures. What would you recommend?

may I suggest an open feeder with a small boily on the hook length with a size 14 hook

here we go

🔥🔥

I’m going fishing on Sunday I wish you to luck on your videos and have a great day

its like Alex pays the fish acting fee's, for behaving and jumping on the hook at exactly the right time.

The Crow family of birds (of which the Magpie is one) pair for life. That fact should act as an aide memoire for you.

one for sorrow, two for joy, three for girl, four for a boy, five for silver, six for gold, seven for a tale that's never been told....the parliament of magpies.

Boys, How did you determine that a brook or small stream holds fish? I have some not too far from my home but I haven't seen any fish in them...

Would you recommend float or feeder for short sessions?

Great vid. 👍🏻. Do you think you’ll be doing any feeder fishing vids for carp in the future?

Do love to see when we get our new video to watch😁

nice one what did you do,this video has a different flow ,could be the music but just seemed to calmer and nicer to watch ..carry on boys wish i had stuff to watch like this when i was a lot younger

Very nice video, Carl I am coming to you from Connecticut, USA, age 81 years, male

if u look closerly where alex was fishing the first time they was a pike what looked like it lost its swim bladder in the bush where he got snagged

I fish with the lead on streams for trout. Is there a way I can prevent fish swallowing the hook?

Hi! Are you really having such good weather in the UK right now?

Great video as always. Do you guys not do any pole fishing?
