Why I NEVER Ignore Tiny Rivers... 

Another great video. Glad the gentle exposure therapy helped you get over your panic/anxiety! Must be a big relief. Congratulations, Carl.

At the end of the day, you are only Human! No need to stress over every small detail! But keep strong and live life with fishing ❤

Really happy for you that you have been working on your mental health. I still struggle a lot with panic attacks but I’m also doing better this year with my new position working at a Zoo in the education department, giving kids the opportunity to have first hand experience with exotic animals. It’s such a wonderful feeling to feel that growth. I hope it’s not weird to say I am proud of you! Keep on being a class act!

I love your small river films they ar exactly the type of fishing I also enjoy, keep them coming 👍🏻

I really miss seeing Alex on this channel. So I’m glad to see him here ven if it was brief!

YES ANOTHER FISH WITH CARL VIDEO

You are not only a GREAT fisherman you are also just a wonderful person Carl!! Always fun to watch you buddy keep up the amazing content, and enjoy your success, you deserve it!!

These update videos are such a joy to watch, Carl. You have and continue to do so much for the fishing community. Congratulations on all that you've achieved do far. Looking forward to the next!

Great update video carl. Persistence pays off in the end. It's also great to hear your anxiety and panic attacks are improving. I also suffer from anxiety in different ways to you, but I feel your pain. It's great to hear you're working through it 😊

In my teenage years I always fished tiny rivers that you could jump over and yes, in winter, quality roach dace and chub could be caught. Miss those times, so thanks for this video...you make an old man happy!

Wonderful video! So glad you got over the anxiety! That felt so relatable because i'm still dealing with similar things. Happy Easter!

so happy your back on schedule favourite part of the weekend!😃

Really enjoyed the update format, plus your day reflected most people’s reality for a winter river session (except for the cracking chub!) - great video

Excellent! Thank you for this on a Saturday evening. So glad Naomi is out more and enjoying our passion of fishing. I like being a patreon and get to see all the early releases.

Absolutely love your content! So easy to watch and I’ve not long found your channel so plenty to catch up on! Keep it up and I’ll keep my eyes peeled for you or Alex on my local lakes and rivers

Amazing video as always, the editing skills are through the roof now Carl. 👌🏻👌🏻always such a joy to watch your vids

Love your content! Such a humble guy too😊. Can't wait to see what spring brings! I'll be getting my rods out of retirement this month and having a go on my local rivers and ponds!

Great Vid Carl, so relaxed and natural commentary. Love to check out your vids when I am relaxing at home. Keep 'em coming !

Another great video - love that you got your brother into the freezing koi pond 👍 and massive points for the car too. Really hope you go from strength to strength so we keep seeing your achievements

What another amazing video looks like you've been busy and had a lot of fun ❤🐟

Quite enjoyed this video on the walk to the tackle shop. I love fishing on small bits of water for the silvers but on the big stretches of water and lakes hold some really nice big roach and different kind of silvers. Keep up the videos I really enjoy watching them 👍

Really enjoyed this video and want to add how brave of you to describe your anxiety!! Getting to grips with it younger, rather than older, is definitely the way to go. Having someone like OMI with you is the best help ever as no matter how you tackle your mental health, she will be empathetic rather than judgmental. Thanks for sharing 👍👏

Nice chub Carl! I got so excited when I saw that you uploaded again, great video and I can't wait for the next one!

If I could like this video 100x over I really would. What a great video. Felt with things just like him. Panic attacks and anxiety. What really helps is going fishing keeping fit and being in fresh air.

What a great video Carl! , the 360 camera is a great idea for filming underwater! I hope you have a great Easter , and a good week! Keep up the great work!

Another mega video! Thanks Carl. That 360 footage looks incredible!

Great video,so inspiring,and what a lovely chub to end on. Looking forward to the next one 👊🏼

Thank you for ur videos I really appreciat all your hard work🙏

Class video Carl. It’s great to see u overcome that terrible anxiety and congrats for that. Thanks so much for keeping the vids coming😊

Great catch up content, thanks and keep it up. 👍🏻👍🏻

There is a river like me almost exactly the same as this. Two in fact! Can’t wait until the season is open again, going to have a good go at them now having watched this. Cheers Carl!

Great peace of work - love your vids - better than many stuff in TV. cheers from Switzerland.

Great stuff. I love smaller rivers and getting in the water. Getting in the water just makes you feel more connected to what you're doing.

aaaaaah ok THAT'S how you did that shot! very very cool. Great great vid mate. and great work getting over those hurdles t...SQUIRREL!!!...those hurdles too mate. once again, truly amazing watching both your, hard work and the journeys

This channel has gotten me through a lot it's fantastic thanks guys you're the best

Absolutely love your videos , keep it up 👌

Great video as always, much better when someone gives you the highs and lows, nice one carl.

Cracking video buddy and also sharing your lows with the highs ……. Sharing is caring and us anglers are the best therapy ……. Loving the channel s always and you enjoy and all the best 👍🥰😁

Just ordered the book and the poster for my boy. Great vid as usual carl 👌

An absolute pleasure to watch mate! Thank you very very much for sharing:)

Good to see you're full of enthusiasm, Carl. Nice to see you back. Keep it up. 👍🏻

Great video Carl and just watched Tom's video too which has some of that in this and can't wait to see more from the 360 camera good luck and tight lines

"And then, just as I was about to give up...I got snagged and then gave up" 😂😂😂😂😂 Then...you raised the subject of your mental health, that's a massive thing to talk about Sir. I respect and appreciate you for it. I have anxiety a lot around people, especially crowds.

Carl you're amazing gifting Om that car, love it how you also helped Alex with his new channel. Keep going brothers!

Love this Carl. I always try and spot signs of fish in any body of water I see. Love the videos as per usual. Thanks. Theo

Thank you for another quality video Carl an I have to say it was great to see you overcome anxiety I know just how you feel as I actually suffer with it but unfortunately it's taking over my life I've lost my job as a result of it and now can't even go to the shops in fact it's got so terrible I can't even manage to go to the hairdressers I've now started cutting my own hair as I can't bring myself to go there as the last time I went I actually had a panic attack in the seat an had to leave so if possible could you please do a short video on how you overcome anxiety if you can't I totally understand an I'm sorry for asking. anyways please keep up the awesome content look forward to seeing your next video

Interesting vid seeing you back in the tiny rivers and concurring your fears, also squash is a favourite of mine

Sat by my fire in my garden, n watching your video, nothing beats this channel! Love the vids Carl!

The positive and honest vibe of this video warms the heart. It really is the antidote to all the media-driven madness of the times. You and your team make thousands smile Carl😎Thank you🍻🍻

Loved this video the most out of most of your videos. Thanx for sharing bru.

I'm going on an upcoming overnight trip to the river ebro in spain with monster carp and this video is just the biggest boost and reminder. Have a great day,keep up the good content!🎣

Thankyou Carl your videos have really helped my fishing recently Thanks to this video it has made me catch my best ever small stream chub

My local little river gave me my PB chub and pike in February; they’re awesome. I think it’s easier to find the fish as the features are more obvious and accessible. Great video Carl. 👍

I love all your videos mate so I have genuinely learnt everything from you ❤

Hey man, great to see local guys on youtube. I definitely resonate with the anxiety side of things. I've only been fishing once (bar childhood adventures) and i've found fishing to be great to get me out of the house. Which has now led me to you guys. Hopefully catch you around now i'm starting to adventure out the house.

Some of my absolute favourite fishing spots are literally storm-drains and sullage-ponds. One is very much like the small river you fished at 13:30. They tend to hold mostly tilapia, which are a massive pest problem here. The funny thing is that while most of the water depths are only around 2-3 feet at most, they hold some fairly large fish, with many reaching the 40+cm mark. It's also right beside a bust suburban road, so I get lots of joggers and dog-walkers stopping by to have a chuckle at the beardy-man fishing in a puddle who are often rather shocked at the contents of my bucket. This is just that much more evidence, to me at least, that you can never ignore ANY body of permanent water in your area, because you just never know, until you've had a good dig through it.

Only just started watching your videos recently but it's given me the drive to get back into fishing again, ordered a little whip rod for my little brother and sister to try too! Just can't wait to get back on the banks 😅 cheers for the inspiration mate!

Well done mate 360 filming take was epic

Dude, you met Jeremy Wade!?! Huge River Monsters fan from the states. Lucky

I love fishing, thank you for inspiring me with every video!!

Excellent video. I used to fish 🐟 little streams like that in Kent. Nice tippy tappy float gear !! Keep up the great content mate.

Carl was amazing to see you at the Essex carp show and again a few weeks later at the big one, thank you again for signing your book for my two boys even the older one has started subscribing and watching your videos so thank you again to you, omi and Tom tight lines 🎣🎣

Genuine down to earth lad. Keep up the good videos mate.

Great Video Carl. I know exactly how you feel. Im suffering panic attacks for 13 years now. Sometimes theyre just horrific. I think a lot of people underestimating how bad and stressful mental illness can be, especially the part you mentioned in this video (remembering your body that hes safe) Fishing and spending time with my wife are my safe places :) wish you the best for your future carl.

Your videos really help me thanks mate 🐟🎣

You have help me so much with fishing thank you keep up the good work

Cracking little video look forward to the next

Great video Carl got me into fishing a while ago always watching u can't wait for u to hit 500k congrats 🎉

Another great vid mate ..and I just want to say with regards to the panic attacks etc you are doing the right thing ..everything in your daily life mate what you would usually avoid because of those very unpleasant and confusing feelings just do it more and more ..its just exposure therapy that's all as I see you already understand..and a tip for you buddy what worked for me ..when you feel one coming on ask yourself this question..has anything changed in the last 10 minutes to cause these feelings..nearly always it hasn't so why the release of adrenaline...because its just a memory of a previous panic attack if you understand..so try your best to ignore it and don't try to fight it mate...just tell yourself I've got through plenty of these and nothing has changed or ever happens ...with a little practice you will overcome them buddy ...I remember those panic attacks well...Best wishes to you mate

Great video as always Carl!!

Great video. Love watching the smaller water's vids. Lots by me, want to give it a try this summer 💯😁🎣😁

Great video i love every single one of them

I love your videos I have watched almost all of them

Great! All the best! Tight lines!

Great video. I didn't get my first panic attack until my 40s, and it sucked, big time. Good job working on yourself. You won't be sorry! I love tiny streams and hope someday to catch a fish in England.

Respect for talking about panic attacks, i struggle about 25y with it now on and off. So i feel you. Fishing makes this all go away and give me the strength to fight again the next days

Carl I love this sort of videos you make I love small stream vids

6:18 I'm so glad you said this Carl 🤣 Don't worry about that one mate!

Nice video, I always enjoy your videos Carl

Another awesome video thank you

Great channel. My 12 year old son is a big fan. I bought the book and picked it up in Australia and brought it back to him in Trentino, Italy. He's ticked off a few species already, including a few good Pike in a tiny pond nearby, Chub, Carp and more.

Excellent vid its always good to fish the river

and that is the sweetest thing with getting om the car for Christmas, you are the man Carl

Your such a wholesome young man. If you ever find yourself in cornwall, hit me up, there's plenty of carp lakes around here brother, and we could always sea fish too

Carl and Alex need to do I big fishing trip this summer like the good old day Brilliant video mate

11:56 the legend himself 🙌🏽

I love your videos its a nice change from the crazy bs other people are doing on RU-vid in other segments.

When my days get over stressed or just unfathomably anxious, watching your videos calm me and make me feel back at home. I live in Arizona.

YEESSSS FINNALY VIDEOOO... It's soo good i love you❤️❤️

just a friendly reminder carl, you're absolutely smashing it! always look forward to your videos on a saturday afternoon

Great update Carl. Stay strong 💪

Great video Carl keep the good work up

Awww great to see you again!! Good video always!!

Brilliant video and edit. The talk about mental health was the best bit. It's good to talk

you should try tallington, best lure fishing in the uk, gin clear to see takes and is never fished as its waterskiing complex. every time i go its pure action all day, summer il lose count of the pike, even in mid winter with clear water on sunny day il have 10 to 15 pike.

Always fun to to watch you

Well done for all that you do Carl! I like how you have kept it real in this vid! Fishing is called fishing for a reason it’s not called catching. Lovely chub at the end as well! Thanks Carl 😀

Of all your videos it's the small rivers that got me subscribed, the ones that are truly a thrill. Small rivers, big surprises! Please can I have some more Sir!!

I’ve got a question when it comes to carp fishing what boilies are best for what like when you put some in your pellets what ones do you use or when you throw some in or use on your hook like bc I have no idea what to use

Top entertainment. Thnx Carl……..now more chilled before going to watch my team play.
