Another example of when things go tits up you meet someone who not only fixes the problem but become a friend for life. Awesome work by the whole team Ben and keep the videos coming, they are entertaining and massively educational.
Kev is the man! most of the carp boys will not know how good he is with a lure rod in his hand as well💪. I think we need a collab where he takes you out lure fishing Ben.
The lake is looking great - im pleased and relieved its coming together. I have to say that you seem like such a nice guy, and bless your mum for all that she does. Keep the videos coming dude - you're smashing it !
i luv watching all these videos everyone has pulled it off even you in the end with 3 hours of labour thats commitment lol no so good ita all coming together so pleased for everyone involved well done
Best video so far in my opinion mate. Not just for outcome, but editing and ‘hosting’ I guess. You are going from strength to strength mate. All the best buddy.
I have watched from the first video and have been excited by the journey this lake has gone through its really starting to look like a great place and looks like you have made some good friends along the way. Really can't wait to see these fish grow and to see all them special memories that this lake it going to make. Tight lines
Hi Ben, loving the content, been following since the start. Just one note on Argulus. Utilising pipes as method of control can be effective at reducing their numbers but as I’m sure you would have already been aware that after drying and removing eggs and replacing the pipes, they need to be checked and removed again after 14 days to avoid harbouring and effectively “farming” the Argulus and making more of a problem than it originally was. The presence of Argulus alone shouldn’t cause concern as they’re a naturally occurring parasite of our fish in the UK. They tend to thrive with the warmer conditions of our summers and their numbers will subside come the autumn and winter. This comment is designed incase other fisheries are interested in taking this kind of management on. There’s a collection of fact sheets hosted online if people would like to find out more about this parasite. Keep up the great work!
Good for her catching that fish. .. she needs her name on something ...that's a cool memory for her.... keV is aces .... Just the guy you need for any future projects
Take a look at BP Millings natrepel for your argulus problem alongside the plastic pipes. Works a treat when applied as a top dressing for your feed pellet
Next time Isabella gets asked to fish at “kev’s pool”…… Her reply - Nah, COMPLETED it mate! Well done! I didn’t catch my first 30 till I was in my late teens so congrats on a massive achievement and milestone
Hey mate , I had a problem with a section of bank erroding before and I planted Alfalfa.. its a great plant to help stop erosion , roots can go as deep as 20 feet and are net like ✌️
I hope your carp aren't going to dig at the bottom of your landlock. When I've installed this you drive sheets or boards in the ground 2 or 3 ft from the waters edge first. You could be back in the same situation in no time at all.
Love what ya doing BUT please please please dont use blue dye next season use shadow dye you lake will look stunning and as well as protection from the UV
Drain it dig it deeper an ramax in every 150mill of fresh clay at least 8 complete passes over whole area you need one of them machines that pack land fills in to harden the ground enough to seal it properly needs to be done in good weather which is impossible in england

Coming a long nicely, loving the content 🎥👍
Great to see the journey, so meaningful ❤ 👏 👌
I’m hoping no more problems bud you deserve a little bit of good now great watch again too 👏🏻👏🏻

looking great Ben ! been following from the start !
Love this mate! Congratulations 🙌
kev is the hero
Brilliant lad's well played💪🏏
Really enjoying your video. I've just dug a clay pond and having the same issues with water retention, very frustrating 😑
Many congratulations to Izabel🏆🏆
Team work makes the dream work 😉
Love your videos and story! Best of luck !
Well done Kev. Fixed it up good and proper
Keep going Ben, when you think it's all done, there will be more to do
Looking good

Brilliant !
Big Kev is a nice fish!!
‘I need to do the pegging thing with Kevin’ your weekend is your own mate 🤣🤣🤣🤣
that sounds so wrong m8
Proper riches to riches story! Stay strong bro
Big ups to Kevin he obviously knows his shit.👌
He has been fantastic
Kevin needs a carp named after him. What a legend.
9:35 you took half a load bro 😂😂
Keep up the hard work bro

@@decadesofdnb love it
Quality bit of content filmed there mum ❤
Brill video mate
A good product for parasites is BP Milling's natrepel they also do a range fishery pellets and fishery supplies
Congrats, you've now got it the way you want it
Unless the matting is on the bed wave action will undermine it. Install boards 10 feet from the bank at water level. Carp dig for food.
Hey mate , I had a problem with a section of bank erroding before and I planted Alfalfa.. its a great plant to help stop erosion , roots can go as deep as 20 feet and are net like ✌️
Good tip!
I hope your carp aren't going to dig at the bottom of your landlock. When I've installed this you drive sheets or boards in the ground 2 or 3 ft from the waters edge first.
You could be back in the same situation in no time at all.
I think Kevin has earned a free fishing life membership at the pond
looking good, have you thought about getting some wildflower turf ?
I’ve watched from the beginning. I really hope it’s plain sailing from now on.
Another great video mate,, everyone of your videos I’ve watched always makes me think of Jeremy clarkson 😂😂😂 sure your not related pal
Glad it’s all coming together, any idea on when you will open?
paint that fence black will look even better :)
Everyone needs a Kevin
I’ve a 7 year old twins (boy/girl ) thay handy on tools already and getting hang of driving too
You are a manual labour god, Ben 😂 Great to see the progress 👌
Never give in
Great to see it’s going right for a change Ben 😂👌🏻🏴🍺
I know right haha!
Au topp !! Encore 💪
Be good to finally fish after watching it being built
Have you looked into Hilton fisheries ? If your still looking for
On a pond that size put a Bentonite liner in
You seen hilton vally it's for sale and we'll with in your range mate with some good fish In
Love what ya doing BUT please please please dont use blue dye next season use shadow dye you lake will look stunning and as well as protection from the UV
Drain it dig it deeper an ramax in every 150mill of fresh clay at least 8 complete passes over whole area you need one of them machines that pack land fills in to harden the ground enough to seal it properly needs to be done in good weather which is impossible in england
Needs a little island. GS

i could do with about 10 of them plant baskets for my koi pond
You should tench and chub in it mate
Have you got enough room to build a stock pond?
Yeees! Planning on this being an upcoming video!
@@benedictfowler cool can get this year's fry in there and rear them on. Are you adding perch to the lake?
You're giving off strong Clarckson vibes in this. 😂
Gotta do some pegging with Kevin ...😂 good content and I don't even fish lol, loving your podcasts keep up the good work 👌🏼
I’ve gotta do the pegging thing with Kevin 😂😂🤦 best line of the video 👊💚
Soak your Feedback pellets in garlic good to get rid of them
Love It
Aren’t your “reeds” water irises?
In any case well done Ben.
Kev do you feed the carp if so with what?
