I think it's easy for people to forget or not even realise while we enjoy the video the sheer work taken just to put this together. Setting up the camera to record each scene and from different angles, as well as fishing with such commitment is astonishing. The production value for everyone watching and considering none of us have to pay to watch this kind of work is absolute top tier.
Very true observation. Additionally, Carl is a wonderful story teller too. How he hasn't been asked to front a TV show yet, baffles me tbh. The perfect role model imho for young lads in particular.
Dear Carl What an absolute pleasure to watch your new film. I have lived in Australia for nearly 20 years and your films keep me connected to the English countryside and the true spirit of angling. Fabulous film and storytelling. Thankyou.
Amazing session Carl, this was worth the wait. The production was class and filming was top quality by Callan. Fantastic ending totally unexpected as the video went on.
This is the first fishing video I have watched in a while - possibly since the last ‘Carl and Alex’ video. I didn’t realise how much I had missed them and just how awesome they are made/documented!! Watched it with my 3 year old boy and he was absolutely glued to it!! Another corker!! Thanks Carl and great to see Alex involved!!
My lil girl doesn't usually watch a fishing video for long buy she sat all the way through this one. Mega video. Amd she wants to fishing this afternoon now so result.
I think this channel really has to be the best for carp fishing vids on RU-vid, so enjoyable to watch and incredibly informative, makes me realise that keeping it simple is the best tactic in fishing
I was breathless most of this video, stunned by all those beautiful carp you landed. And the cherry on top of the cake arrived as you were saying you would be back in autumn. Great fishing Carl, congrats from a french angler 👍
Watching this gave me goosebumps what an amazing journey and what an amazing little film I thoroughly enjoyed watching, it keep up the hard work Carl you’re amazing!! 🎣
Hey Carl, Brilliant video. I am on my first campaign ever fishing my local lake and so far have blanked 6 times. Your videos are inspiration to never give up! I wouldn't even be able to fish the lakes if it wasn't for you and your brother's amazing channels. The tutorials are the reason that I can get out without knowing anybody who fishes. The production value of the film is excellent. I work in TV and these shots are premium and professional and the drama and story telling would not be out of place on the box. Props to your camera man and multiple setups. I'm getting back out today to see if I can land a fish. Not the size that you are landing but maybe one day it'll be a 40lber! Thanks for all your hard work and keep up the top work!
Wow, appreciate the comment and kind words. So happy the films have helped you learn and enjoy the hobby even more, and feel able to fish where you might not have before :) Glad you're keeping at it too! It pays off. I blanked soo much here, so was mad to finally devote some time to this place and give it everything. Cheers Daniel, all the best with your fishing, let me know how you do!
@@fishwithcarl Hey Carl! It finally happened, 9th time lucky and I caught two commons last night at sunset. Just wanna say another huge thank you! Couldn't have done it without you!
An absolutely beautiful lake....the content in this video is amazing. I have watched A Passion For Angling and Catching The Impossible many times....This video Carl is right up there with the very best ever produced....I shall enjoy watching this video several times over. Well done !
Been waiting for this for the longest time. I’ve wanted another quest video like the old days so nostalgic 😂🎣🎣 7 minutes in that common is unbelievable 😱
I didn't think , from watching this channel in the last year, it could get any better, but this episode just shows how the quality of filming , editing and content just is a amazing. Well done Carl ( and Alex) and all concerned. Makes watching very addictive.
I am so glad you and Alex have gone your separate ways and are both happy making great videos. Now I get twice the viewing pleasure and two very different styles. Great work. I hope to see a pond update soon. Thank you 😊
A truly amazing and professional session, from the fishing to the filming. Never dissapointed with any content delivered, but this one topped others by a mile. Congratulations to Carl, Cal and everyone else involved. Many thanks.
Yet another smiles for miles video, you never fail to amaze with the content, production and nostalgia. Well done gents! Please never stop doing what you’re doing 👏🏼
Absolutely love the way you fish. So honest and you never come across as your the expert and know everything. Learnt so much from you and as a new carp angler its invaluable. Thanks
These video inspire me to just go fishing, it’s brilliant. If my desire goes stagnant from time to time I watch one of your videos and then I’m off fishing asap. Not forgetting learning new rigs on the way which help me dramatically. Love the content ❤️
Fantastic video mate! You have really stepped up your game not only on the fishing front, but your cinematic efforts are incredible! Keep up the good work and I'll keep on tuning in!!!
Fantastic video Carl. One of the best! Videography, editing, music choice all spot on, and loved the narration story telling style throughout - perfect choice after having a bit of gap in "fishing" videos to help us feel we've caught up with what you've been up to. That's not to mention the fish and fishing! 👌🔥 Was a little worried when Alex left you may lose your mojo, but this is exceptional mate. Well done. 👏👏
Wow, thank you so much :) Yeah, me too. So glad it worked out and we're both feeling so much better on our new paths. It really was the right thing. And like you say thankful it didn't hinder my drive and passion. Appreciate the comment. All the best :)
Carl and the team, unbelievably good work once again! Class all around from the dedication, settings, lake and fish caught. Hard work usually equals success 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
I watch nearly all of your fishing videos and have from the start, my 5 year old boy now loves watching you and always wants to go fishing after, I would say this is one of the most enjoyable videos you have made so far. Thanks
Now that’s some proper story telling! Great video, perhaps even the best carp video out there right now! Thanks for the great production and congrats on the 40’er 👊🏻
Had to come back to watching your videos after watching Reservoir Diaries 1nd 2 countless times, tremendous videos from your younger days of carping and more to the point serious videos, Im not into the Benny Hill side of things or foraging for food and being crazy so this video was a breath of fresh air for me, I think when your serious in your narration you are one of the best " tubers " out there and I could watch videos like this several times a day. Cant wait for the years to pass by and see where you end up, Im sure its going to be watch worthy
CONGRATULATIONS!!!!!!!! an thank you for sharing these wonderful moments with us I know I speak for 1000s of people when I say we really appreciate both you an your brother also your friends an girlfriend for making these videos possible Carl thank you all so much an please keep the awesome content coming
The whole video is absolutely incredible. The fish u caught were amazing and the little things that was left in video like the views and the part where the bird landed on ur mic and took some fur for its nest is insane to capture. Thanks for the videos 👍💙
This was fantastic Carl! This is what I remember the old channel was! Just awesome nature footage, fantastic story telling and fishing! I’m so glad to have a Carl&Alex and now Fish With Carl sticker on my laptop👍🏽 you’re such an inspiration to keep editing and grinding videos! Thanks for all the effort you put into your videos!
Just got the poster and book from your store both super high quality and the book was just fantastic it was super helpful and my brother loves the pictures!! 🤣(he’s 3) Keep up the great work❤️
Brilliant video Carl , from the filming to the editing, to the carp some real beauties there. Congrats on the 40lber. Some hard work went into getting that fish,
Ah cheers Garry, that's kind. Really appreciate it... when you everything into it, the feeling if it pays off is so worth it. that's what I love about a challenge like this, really gets me determined and focused in. I really get into the problem solving side of it! :)
What a pleasurable 38 minutes! Great that you always think outside the box Carl, giving it that little bit extra certainly paid off. Some wonderful fish on the bank and the ending, well you couldn't have written that could you! I was smiling from ear to ear with you. wonderful to experience this session with you.
Ah wow that's so nice to hear, happy you enjoyed it mate :) Yes I get zoned in when it's a challenge and I've I have problem solve! Part of what I love about setting up a goal to aim for in this type of quest campaign. I enjoy this kind of fishing now and then. No I couldn't have haha unless fish could be trained! Mad... I still have disbelief at that!
I have watched a few of your videos and have enjoyed every one of them. The story telling is interesting, you show the good with the not so good and the settings are great and the fish impressive. But I take away one thing on this channel which I do not see on others I have watched ..... the aesthetics of your videos is sublime. The finesse is captivating and make your videos beautiful works of art. Congratulations and tight lines.
Carl... I don't hang out much with carp anglers (I always fish alone) but with someone like you it would be a real pleasure because I appreciate your humility excellent video (best on youtube) i discovered a channel just a few days ago (fishing tutorials) that led me to this one...i subscribed to 2...👍👌
..Absolutely incredable series and I intend to watch every one..!! Thanks for all your efforts. Top quality. ..and I do that as well. I leave the rods in right to the bitter end, and with all the gear packed away, I give it the last 5 mins.....You just never know..!!
Great video, well done on the 40! You mention in the film that the Carp spook if they brush the line, I have had the same problem with large Chub and a shoal of decent Bream on a local small river I fish (The Bream are only there until early July, think they spawn in the shallower water, hang around for a few weeks to clean themselves up and then disappear off somewhere as yet undiscovered). Always struggled to catch them but used a method I saw used by Chris 'The Ginger Fisherman' in one of his videos a little while ago on my session last week. Because the depth is shallow (Often just 2 feet deep) I tend to freeline. Chris did a session where he had a shot 12 inches from the hook but another 12 inches further up to hold the line to the bottom. Doing the same last week I had 3 Chub (Biggest 5lb 2oz), 5 Bream with the biggest going 6lb 2oz, 5lb 12oz and 5lb, a 2lb 12oz Roach/Bream hybrid and a 3lb 2oz Tench (The first Tench I had caught on the venue since the 80's). It definitely seemed to work as it kept the line away from the feeding fish
And that is exactly why I always procrastinate, wrapping up my rods at the very last minute, pretty much after everything else! Can't beat those last-minute takes... Notably when it's such an amazing 40 pounder, of course! Well done, beautiful video, fantastic fishing.
Wow what a video, no wonder 280k tuned in the watch great scenery production and storyline was all top notch .Well done Carl and Kel don't know what you'll bring us next but this awesome ..Bob in Ozz ...
Just wanna say, your videos are so interesting to watch! And really inspire me, I only got into carp fishing this year and I’m obsessed, if it wasn’t for you I wouldn’t of even been able to tie rigs to my mainline ha! All your videos are so entertaining especially your America trip and you’ve even helped me convince my girlfriend to let me build a koi pond! Thanks!
Carl, you and your brother have kickstarted my passion for fishing, and nature. Thank you! You are both inspirational and a great face of the fishing community
This is without doubt the best video you have made and I reckon the best fishing video I have ever seen on any platform. Amazing mate. Captures everything, from the beauty of the fish and the effort to catch them to the feeling of being outside with the sun going down, taking part in the best sport around with nature all around. Was so happy watching this. Wow. 👍🏻👍🏻
Loving your work guys so inspirational. I've been fishing for well over 20 years now and have never touched fresh water. I'm feeling I need a change so I'm going to do my fist day ticket next weekend with my son of 8 we can learn this thing together!!!!!
Amazing!! So happy to hear that you're going to learn and share that together, glad you're feeling so inspired by it Nathan :) Yes, I know what you mean, I love it when I go sea fishing, as I never normally do! Hope you and your son have a great time. Do let me know how you do! All the best to you both
Mate massive respect to you! from when you answered one of my QnA’s made my life when I was 14, you’ve made me a title milestone in your videos, the best
Hi Carl, hope you and omi are both well, Carl I've just watched your video , my quest foe a 40lb carp, cracking content Carl, Carl were about is the farm lake and is open to the public, many many thanks and I look forward to more of your amazing content, tight lines dude 🐟🎣🐟🎣

Amazing video!! Really enjoyed that!. Great production and editing! Fantastic story telling! Massive effort gone into this, you thoroughly deserve the rewards you received!! Well done!!👏👏
love these quest videos, just amazing, reminds me of my youth before kids and work got to serious lol. that 38lber, wow what a fish, brilliant well-done Carl.
Absolute quality start to finish, awesome fish making an appearance too, you are an amazing story teller with a voice and persona that you just want to keep on watching and listening , and the editing is on a different level,. Seriously well done 👍 Thoroghly enjoyed that
Great vid Carl. It’s a shame there’s not as much content as there used to be but lives move on and it take a lot of spare time to produce it. I’ve not been out for ages as work and life’s been too busy. Really miss it but love watching you, and other channels, when I get a moment.
Wellcome back in fishing, Carl. Nice to see you again in carp fishing! Nice video as usual…finally a good guy, good fishing and a good fishing telling…and a unbeliveble great carps!
Great video Carl you have just shown the whole world what fishing is all about. I am really chuffed for you and some lovely fish caught. I also like the honesty as with the highs moments there comes quite a few blanks lol.
Hi Carl,I’m a big fan I’ve only been fishing a handful of times but that was because of you and your brother you made it seem fun for a fair price 😩 I personally think you would love marchamley it’s a place in Telford,there are 6 different pools 3 carp with up to 50lb and 3 with different fish like sturgeon and other fish and there is one pool with catfish up to 110lbs if you ever up here I would definitely love to fish with you 💛👍
