What Fish Live in this TINY Stream?! 

Absolutely loved it. Reminds me of how I started fishing and where I too also end up going back to. Fishing on big lakes is always fun but fishing tiny streams rivers and even canals can give an equal buzz if not bigger when you catch on them when you don’t expect to. Absolutely amazing video as always Carl.

I must admit that this type of 'off the beaten' track style angling is my favourite. Often free or low cost, no rules and very few other anglers about! You captured the essence very well!

This is definitely now one of my favourite videos! As simple and honest as fishing can get, where everyone has or should have started from 👌

The only running water I have anywhere near me is a tiny stream like this, it’s been on my mind since last closed season. Definitely going to go and explore it this week, now. Great stuff

Thank you, Carl, for the inspiration! Alex and you were some of the people that inspired me to try to make a RU-vid channel and I can't express enough my gratitude. Thank you!

Amazing video as usual. It's like you have a whole film crew with you. Like lots of people I learnt to fish on small streams, so for me this video is evocative of times that were simpler and more carefree.

That's the stream I fished all the time as a kid lived in a flat nearby loads of big chub and trout back then

I used to have a tiny bridge pool and stream coming off it and I caught pike to 12lbs, perch to 3.5lbs, roach to 1.5lbs and chub to 4lbs. No matter where I fished in the world, I always returned everyso often to this little hidd4en gem to refresh my inner child ! I also used to love catching Gudgeon, a fish long forgotten, on the norfolk broads ! Fantastic on a really lite outfit ! With the onset of big venues and the desire to catch the biggest, the smaller waters of yesteryear have been forgotten.......

i always love when you make videos like this and try fish in these tiny rivers, its always amazing to see how many and sometimes big fish living there.

The techniques we used on similarly small streams is to go and create some swims a few days before because, on the day you will spook everything. Decent sized fish were usually perch or chub...fun, as you said.

Hey Carl! Today I went fishing on the Great River Ouse with my Dad, I tried dropshotting with my small spinning rod, and it worked! Pulled out 3 decent Perch, and somehow a good Gudgeon. My Dad caught a Chub and 3 Roach, one Roach being 1lb 3oz, being the biggest we've caught! Great video as well!

There’s a little river near me with absolutely horse sized Chub in. As a fly fisherman they always come as a very pleasant surprise. Spotted some huge carp a few years ago as well.

Awesome chub, awesome video, and a great bit of banter with your brother. Really brought back 'grass roots fishing' for me. ☺️

what this series has taught me, is in UK, you can pull a huge fish out of sewage ditch

It brings back those feelings of excitement and adventure we all had when we started fishing at a very early age. Glad you ( and I) still are able to tap in to that part of our childhood. Another lovely little video, Carl!

Alex told me to find you so here I am. Nice video, I used to fish with my Grandad when I was young.

u guys r so lucky to have these river systems where u can just fish, here in sydney there is nothing love this vid keep it up brah

Lol you two are hilarious when you team up.

Love this video buddy .Would be great to see you and Alex Do a multiple day van camping road trip catch and cook ,Would be epic

3:27 adorable chunky fish , all hail bob the chunk.

Gorgeous place

No one ever in this area can do BETTER than you when it comes to fishing ... great job

Nice one. Great little places to dip a hook. Posted a pic of a Perch I caught today to you on Instagram. My PB which I thought was a pike when it started stripping line off. Caught it on a full 12 inch lamprey.

Love this type of fishing I fish a tiny river very similar to this place I've had chub ta 4 pound nice size perch roach grayling a few brown trout

Great stuff. Excellent B roll shots too. Cheers Carl

I’ve got another competition tomorrow and I love how I can watch one of your videos the day before and I will probably rewatch it when I am there

Another great you tube vid mate.. u just don't know what u can get in any river or lake its good to just catch anything some times.. love the content once again Carl

I love watching your videos there so entertaining and in the part of the video with the fish trap you should probably tie the string on the top

Hi Carl I love your videos 🔥

Great video as usual Carl I miss that style of fishing going out and I’m going to give it a go at the weekend

Love YOU guys ❤️ grettings from Croatia :)

I am guessing the local British Cray-Fish have gone extinct there too 😟 as i would of expected to see some in those fish traps.

Morning mate good to see another upload hope you're well 🎣

Would be great with the colder months coming do some advice on tackle but more so advise, recommend on bivvys (and beds etc.)

hi i love your video they help me catch bigger fish

😯 👏🏻👏🏻 🎣🐟🐟 Outstanding!!

I’ll definitely go on a fish hunt with ya it be fun

Looks fun where do you find these little streams and how do you know if you can fish them with out a farmer chasing you nice video

Hi Carl, in a huge fan from kenya 🇰🇪 I think you should get an underwater camera for your videos.

I would love fishing in small creecks like this

yay new video , very cool river

Nicely put together as usual, very well done. Did you know of the stream beforehand or was it recommended to you? Look forward to more content 👍

I was out in a brook yesterday with tenkara rod and dry fly. Caught 10 brown trout.

Is that an old canal you're fishing down ? good to see fish in our rivers nice and healthy.

Nice video Carl 👍👍

excellent, going back to our roots as kids. The naivety of this style of fishing is in total contrast to wasting hours by a silent buzzer, hoping the carp god has seen your frustration. I bet that there are decent chub, perch and even carp in there.

Hey Carl, great video ! Thank you. Do u just fish with worms on little streams like this?

Defiantly not me watching fishing while fishing cuz I’m not catching but love your videos also on your other videos what drone do you use or should I go ask cal 😂

I love every video that u make...

Dear Carl. I wrote you, but you still ain't callin' I left my PB, my Insta and my fav lake at the bottom I sent two common carp in autumn, you must not've got em There probably was a problem at the local lake or something WE LOVE YOU CARL WE DO, WE LOVE YOU CARL WE DO, WE LOVE YOU CARL, WE DO, OH CARL WE LOVE YOU! i had a few beers, and you are my favourite youtuber, i just wanted you to know ...its been 2 weeks since an upload and i know theres a USA one coming... so please, put me out of my misery, and upload, what i know, will be freaking, incredible. All the best wishes, Meg

Do your fish trap using two bottles leaving the end with the cap on so you just pour out the fish out rather than pull it appart to get minnows out

hello! I am an American with friends in Cornwall. One of them goes hiking with their dog in the Car Galven area. They came across a very fast-running stream. I have been dogging the internet to discover if there are any fish there. Anyone know? Also, where are you fishing in this video? Cheers!

another awesome video my man top job 👍👍👍

Another good one..keep it up

Carl how do you know if your boilies are freezer only for example i got some mainline fluro pop ups and i dont know if its shelf life or if its freezer any help?

Where have u been I haven't seen any new stuff from u I hope u are well and all is good miss ur vids!

Hi Carl, Another really nice episode!! I expect you have covered this..but, what rod length would you recommend for small river fishing?

What a great video how's your koi pond

Brilliant idea from the stream. My dad is severely sighted and we both would like to come fishing with you, we live in dorking so would it be possible? Do you live local? I’m 9 thanks you!!!

Hi it’s me again I really need some help with catching fish in my local stream they get spooked very easily and they don’t really eat anything

Your vids are the best m8 keep up the good work and I have also got a big tournament it is the juniors national celebration at Shropshire canal and there is 189 juniors and I’m in the best team

make a crawfishtrap and go fish for crawfish.

I'm pretty sure that stream would have been a paradise to fish in as recently as the 1980s. Shockingly overgrown with no flow and, let's be honest, virtually unfishable for long stretches. Over extraction and fertilizer run coupled with the return of otters have been the ruin of many small streams in my home county of Essex. Very decent chub though. Well done.

to carl u are my fav person im 11 and keen 2 my fishing my pb is 19lbs i hope u see this ryan

Hi Carl love the content git a quick question what reel do you use for spinning rods thxs 😁

its kinda sad that carp are a pest animal in australia it would be nice if there were stocked ponds like in the uk

The Alex channel is all honey and mushrooms

Get some barbel fishing done ✅

I am a boy and I am watching your video

🔥🎣

A soft drink bottle may “coke’s “ them in.

I love that you do this kind of fishing, combined with showing you stalking. I see far to often people who walk on, setup their boring bite alarms and just sit there for the entire day and catch nothing - how boring lol

I think for many of us, small stream fishing is the steeple of our angling background, and it’s so refreshing getting back out on these waters after fishing hard on nights and travelling all around the world! It truly is amazing how much excitement it can hold.

Great episode Carl, I've seen over the year you fish lots of Rivers, I also live in the UK and was wondering do you need a membership or day ticket for each river you fish or are there plenty of rivers that can be fished for free? And I'm missing out somehow 😂

I absolutely love this kind of fishing, i also made some of these bottle traps before, never caught anything tho. I at least expected some invasive crayfish because i catch em all the time there but nope 😅

I absolutely love fishing spots like this! It's so simple and basic, as you said. Catching fish where everyone else has written off as ludicrous has its own rewards. When I was a kid we used glass milk bottles with little bits of bread for bait traps.

What fun. Without giving the exact location away, is that venue on the HDAS ticket?

One thing I’ve learned as an angler is that you should never underestimate small pounds and streams! I caught my PB channel catfish and bass at a very tiny pond!

Nice one Carl. Fishing small streams is my favourite, often with a centrepin, tiny Japanese jighead and tiny piece of Isome worm or grub. Have you tried the Japanese styles Tenkara or even Tanago? You can improvise with a small whip, or just a couple of sections...👍

5:12 i am one of those giiiirrrls that follow him😏😉 AND you ofcourse! Double trouble

13:14 amazing 👍 salam dari Indonesia 🙏🇮🇩👉🔔

Brilliant, loved it, I just feel sorry that I lived for 13 years in the UK southwest near Salisbury and never ever went fishing not even once although I saw some big chub in the clean rivers… well I never had time

What a video! You've probably said the thing that all of us who grew up beside a tiny river think. Keep up the good work, mate.

very beautiful video friends, we are very interested in seeing it. greetings from us.

1 micro river 1 chub and carl turns into jon b

Ive been using this method on my local canal for the past few weeks now and its very enjoyable ive caught more fish using just a shot and hook than any other way. Great video 👍

Fantastic vid Carl. It's always good seeing you fish little small waters like this and enjoy yourself. And there's always that moment of suprise possible like with that big Chub. Never overlook any type of wild water. It could produce a fishy suprise.☺🎣

The ginger fisherman’s last video was something similar in concept to this…he fishes a larger stream than this, but it’s not huge! The size and quality of the fish he catches is eye opening! Edit: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-oSgMMX-UMms.html

I regularly fish like this on tiny streams and rivers often in the middle of nowhere with nothing more then a rucksack net and small lures on an ultralight setup.... I've had the most fun this summer chasing chub all over the South East of the country and would strongly recommend anyone and everyone to do the same!

Chub and barbel have always eluded me! Even when I fish on flowing rivers I still struggle! Seemingly I’m always fishing on the wrong sort of rivers!😂

All we get in my local area is sticklebacks lol

This was incredible, amazing chub too! Very inspiring! I’d love to see another huge giveaway btw

i caUght my biggest german brown trout in a creek just like the one you fished. Those little slivers of water can be a gold mine.

Criticising your brother is not the way to keep me on this channel. Even though i have been watching for years.

Love this style of fishing its what I've been doing all year. Love that you can do it for an hour or all day aswell. Great vid and some lovely fish.

I'd recommend anyone to get into this it's amazing hobbie and so much fun.. great video lads 👌

Hahahahahahahahaha, well Carl, you've got +1 to your "girls" count, at least. I watch both your channel and Alex's and find them both delightful. To be honest I found your channel through Alex's, and I found Alex's only a day or two before through youtube recommendations about growing plants. I gave it a try because I saw glimpses of your personality in his bee keeping videos, so I figured your videos wouldn't just be dry information like I would have expected from fishing videos (and I had a question burning in my mind). Before your channel I knew nothing about fishing other than the stereotypes about how incredibly boring it was and how old men were the only ones who liked it. I kept asking myself "If that's really true, then why do people do it? What do people actually see in fishing?" That said, I think if more ladies gave your channel a chance, they might find they enjoy it as well. Your personality definitely gives these videos a shine.

Ha! My Dad used to tap the bottom of empty wine bottles out to make fish traps - the bottles with the inverted cone shape. He'd tap out the tip of the cone to make the same type of trap as bro here's done Brilliant alternative version here. I'm seventy by the way.

I learned to fish in a tiny stream in Norfolk with my dad. The place was alive with Rudd and a few tench. I’ve never fished anywhere since that feels the same. These wild venues are always special. You literally have no idea what you might catch. Nothing beats it. Great video Carl you took me back to my childhood for a few minutes.

That was a "proper fishing" Video in the John Wilson style with no sleeping in a Bed-chair involved, Thank You. Though Omi's Naturalist input was definitely missed, even if she did make a Guest Appearance or two!
