Facing KARENS and IGNORANCE while Fishing for URBAN Carp in LONDON

Поделиться

  • Опубликовано: 19 май 2024
  • For a part of the summer in 2023, Cyrus and me travelled around London searching for urban carp. We visited as many places as possible in the process, searching for quality fish or just some action on the bank in general. As we spent many days on the bank, I have decided to include the resulting events throughout multiple episodes, of which this is the second.
    In this episode, Cyrus and me face off against the ignorance and aggression of multiple Karens, while simultaneously banking some more of the city's aquatic residents.

    No one cares for and respects fish more than the angler. We’re also on the front line in fighting for the health of British waterways (which are currently in a sorry state).

      The crazier thing is that in one way it makes sense of them to think so, considering how many things are illegal nowadays 😮‍💨 and worse still is that these days, police are likely to show up for such a thing!

    Youre always a lot more respectful than I would be. Patience of a Saint. Keep at it because as you say everything is private that didn't used to be, you should have the right to fish if you're doing things properly without being harassed by someone who thinks they own everything they can see from their house.

    I go through the same thing fishing in New York City. I've had cops called on me a few times from Karen's accusing me of trying to catch turtles when I'm fishing for carp. I've had the cops trying to tell me I can't fish while I was fighting a carp and I made them Google the park rules that prove I can indeed fish there 😂

  •  Месяц назад +4

    A little game to play with the ones that can’t tend to their own business! It involves wearing a mask and when they get to close you basically raise a ruckus and say back away and stay 7 feet away from me right now! make sure you yell that at them!!! They are usually so astonished and surprised they don’t know how to react and usually turn around and walk away especially if you address them in a somewhat angry manner!!! 😂🤣😂🤣😂

    5:16 That is exactly right. You'd think the canals are public. You'd think the rivers are public. But no, they're not. And it's hard to find out who owns a stretch of water. And they have their own silly rules that make absolutely no sense. They're people that were given control over a stretch of water and they're milking it for money while doing absolutely nothing in exchange. They're not maintaining the habitat. They're not cleaning it. They're not repopulating with fish. This is why you're not allowed to take fish, by the way, so they don't have to repopulate. The rod licence you buy should be enough to fish in any publicly owned water. That should be made law.
    And what's sad is that the right to roam people hate fishermen because, from their point of view, it's the fishermen that don't let them paddle down rivers. In reality, it's the water owners that make life difficult for all of us.

    I dont freshwater fish, but I go sea fishing, which also includes the tidal part of the River Medway, vast areas of the river front that was council owned, flats have now been built and thevowners didnt like the fishing, so they are now no fishing. But my worst Karen encounter was on a beach, where I had cut up what had been frozen mackeral for bait and had this Karen screaming at me and threatening to call the police as she thought it and the lugworm I had next to it were disgusting.

    You need to come to the States and fish Wyoming. Most the land is blm (public) land, sooooooo much fishing. Plus cold water trout, pound for pound, are some of the hardest fighting fresh water fish you can catch. So much fun :)

    I'm in the countryside so not really any urban fishing but even here I feel the pain with locations, I like to lure fish for trout but it's borderline impossible to even find somewhere that will even let you do it, it's all fly fishing elitism or extortionate ticket rates so I end up just on the same course pond time after time, which is overfished itself because it's one of the few places around that doesn't have complete piss take rules. Getting some sea fishing rigs going just so I can avoid it all.

    I fail to see the enjoyment you get from catching carp, no matter how big they are. Theyre like catching an old boot, theres rately any fight in them, and while they might be edible after putting them on fresh, clean water for around three days, the flesh is bland and softly under-firm, and full of blood filled black veins.
    Theyre a disgusting fish.
    Here in Australia they have invaded the lower reaches of all our rivers and creeks and they inhabit most of our lakes.
    They are also in large numbers around brackish eturine waters.
    We regard them as an ugly, slimy, disgusting pest and they are officially classed as a noxious introduced nuisance species.
    When people catch them they mostly leave them on the bank, for the river rats and feral cats to eat.

      I took it down as I realised there were parts of the upload where the frame rate had been reduced significantly. This was likely due to a technical issue with youtube's compression system during the uploading process, which apparently does that occasionally. It's an issue I wasn't previously aware of, as it's the first time it happens with one of my uploads. In my opinion it made for a bad viewing experience, so I decided it was best to just re-upload the video. I've done just that, and the newly published version was uploaded correctly this time! From now onwards I'll be verifying that videos have uploaded correctly before publishing them. Anyway, I hope you enjoy the newly uploaded part 3 of fishing London 2023! All the best 🎣🤘
