Welcome back Matt interesting stuff as usual, the anglers that winge about the use of drones are the same ones that moan about using the deeper, baiting spoons, the fish spy and even the Korda underwater videos, Terry Hearn practically lives up a tree looking for carp and if its good enough for him its good enough for me!!!!
Just watched this video mate for the first time, brilliant video, glad you had some quality down time. Shame about the blank, but you definitely tried! Great drone footage 👍
That's quite a beautiful place. I like looking at the lake from the drone. If the fish do not take the bait right in front of them, there is nothing you can do.
Mr cheat 😂😂😂😂 I love it mate. More power to you. Great watch. Hope your well, see you in the summer at the match 👍🏻 they can call me a cheat all they want I’m now getting a drone 😂😂😂
Great to see you back on the bank maff. Sometimes, it's good to just get on the bank to escape the rat race even if no fish are caught. Superb drone footage 👌🏻
enjoyed that - thanks! I was urging you to put a worm or rubber imitation natural bait on those fish. The muddy clouds in the water was likely caused by the fish ripping up the lakebed sifting through the sediment to feed on invertibrates.
Like most people have said...its great to see you back on the bank....really love your vids, and hope to see more...(selfish on my part, but I do enjoy), superb drone footage and I really don't have and issue with new tech, people shouldn't criticise, what is the difference from climbing a tree, same result, unless your using bamboo, twisted horse hair, bent pin....then you are using technology from one era or another, "keep it up" mate...lol !!
I enjoyed it as well Matt! No fish but always great content 👌. Handy with the drone mate! Wouldn't trust myself with one though!😆 atb Matt looking forward to the Ben Nevis one!
Great video I would have moved as well I could not have sat when I knew there were fish in the other swim you definitely made the right choice and as you proved you dont need to catch everytime to enjoy your fishing.
Great vlog Maff and good to see you back out on the bank, always enjoy your videos even if its a blank and that is some great quality drone footage of the venue, take care.🎣🎣
Great blog mate and great to see you out again!! Love the way you placed that rig in the tree to drop it in the far margin 🤣🤣🤣 people will hate tech on the banks, but those same people are also using modern carbon fibre rods and electronic bites alarms instead of split cane rods and tin foil on the line!! They can't have it both ways!!
Yep totally agree Chris we all use tech in some way or other... but more importantly you've probably heard the washing line method of fishing well this is called the "4 Fooks sake im in the Fooking tree AGAIN! method" its not hard to do but just don't get the rig too high in the tree LOL 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Good tk see you back on the bank Matt, I had a session booked on clearwater prior to my holiday but had to cancel it. I fished peg 2 last summer and used maggots as a bed and had a nice mirror 3 hours in but then the silvers acme in and I had a few eels in the night. I definitely think maggots will be a winner in winter on there. Looking forward to the Ben nevis video 👍👍
Good video mate as always , i wouldn't worry about anyone having a go at using gadgets to help you catch more carp , lets be honest every carp angler has taken advantage of improvements over the years , whether it be new types of boiles-pellets-line-rods-reels -spombs the list goes on and and on so anyone who comments on people using gadgets etc should take a look in there tackle box first before commenting , any way a good film to watch after a long day at work
Good to see your back doing the fishing blogs again , I have a question the rechargeable lamp you shown are they still available if so were can I buy one thanks Steve
Hi Matt sorry it’s a bit late to ask we watched a older video and you was useing a bushcraft fire sparking tools could you please tell us the name of the tools and where to get them from Plus the tea light and lantins you use where can we get them from and the name of them please Many thanks keep up the good work Sarah and Eric
Great to see you back on the bank Maff, and although it was a blank, it was a really interesting and enjoyable video to watch. As the saying goes, "It is called fishing not catching", especially at this time of year. Looking forward to seeing you, Andy and Dave back on the bank in future videos. Thanks for the video!
Welcome back on the bank maff t drones bait boat deeper all have they're uses's your gonna have hatters on all tackle it is what it is onto the next adventure tightlines look forward to the next vid 🎣🤞🥃🍳👊👊👊👊👊👊
Hi mate looking at the gopro for my fishing can you recommend them never used one looking at the new hero 11 black but was just wondering am I just a well using the hero 10 black cheers
I'm gonna have to give clearwater a go one day matt looks well run.i personally wouldn't use a baitboat or a drone but each to their own,as long as neither interfere with other anglers I can't see how there's a problem
Hello MAFF. So nice to see you on the bank. I have always enjoyed watching your videos with the light hearted approach to fishing you and Dave have. However, This video was not such a nice watch and entered into areas which certain people would enjoy making mischief. In future please keep away from topics which could be seen as click bait. That said, good luck to to you and have a brilliant new year.
Come on Maffew...WhiskEy??? REALLY? You're British and we do not put an E in our whisky (Water and ice sometimes (if you really want to waste it that is) but never an E) LOL (disclaimer:This comment will be edited as we move through the video) ... Some nice drone footage too mate.
Maff why do you leave yourself open to bad and negative comments, you will never beat a troll they just play on your mind , if you what to use a boat, drone, anything that helps you to catch carp do it. We all pay a lot of money to fish for carp and it’s nobodies business how each off us do it, I believe if you object to someone using a boat , or drone then it’s jealousy and nothing else, if there’s a water that lets you use all the mod cons and you object to them find another water then it won’t irritate you. Good luck Maff. Ray
Hi Ray of course you're correct it is down to the individual in every respect 👍 I don't mind the trolls too much and if anyone gets too heavy or rude i just remove their comment. But I also don't mind ruffling a few feathers as it can be interesting, these are issues that crop up from time to time and not many folk will open themselves up for a debate, as they are too busy looking to be sponsored. ...I'm not😁 However I am 100% going do a vid that questions the use of gadgets for fishing as nearly every fishermen in some way will be using some form of gear that has been improved or developed over the years you don't see many (but you do see some) with a stick and line lol. This video was edited to bring the subject front and center. bear in mind some fisheries even ban alcohol! so i get comments about that too lol. The bottom line Ray I absolutely loved this session on my own and i did learn a thing or two myself. thanks for the great comment Ray, Regards Matt
