Ratherheath is my local water. WADDA have brung the pond back to life compared to what it was with weed etc about 5yr ago good to see that they have stocked it with ghosties and 9. 20s biggest one going is 25lb..caught my pb out of there about 3 week ago it was 22lb 8oz..the carp up there love the lillies and fallen trees.using the right bait and tactics you will pull them out all day.hope to see you up there sometime 👌
Only replying to this a year later .... sorry about that but a reply it is👍 love this place, ive got a lot to learn about the water and how to fish it, maybe one day i will figure it out but until then it will be fun trying and learning ..thank you regards Matt
Great to see you back vlogging again fella! Wonderful looking lake indeed! Also glad you're on the mend! Great therapy fishing! Hope it's not too long before the next one! Bit late to the party on this one dunno why?? 😄
Sitting here munching a couple of bacon and fried tomato sandwiches and watching Maffew fish ... Best morning ever. Looking great Matt...keep it up mate.
HEY SAM hope your well mate ive just got around to getting to the comments today .. first day off for a while.....I have to work just to pay for all the gear i keep buying LOL 🤣 ..now ive got it i now need to learn how to use it ... but i must admit my new pc doesn't even flinch at processing in 4K and having a more powerful pc than my sons gamer makes him real jealous too ..... it wont be long now before he upgrades just you wait and see, lots of prep for the big walk still going on but i really need to do more until next time , Cheers Sam 👍
Clearbarrow is the same, can hear everything and anything from all over the water though its never as busy as Ratherheath. Crackin places. Cant wait to get a 24hr on either.
Great vlog maff and your spot on about fathers day. Still got my maff t cup👍the definition on your new camera is unreal great to see you back on the bank take care👏👏👌
Hello Stephen I just need to learn how to use all this new gear now lol it tickled me that there was nobody fishing on fathers day and you just know they want to be LOL 😂🤣 glad your looking after the mug 👍
Hi Matt, good to have you back again; just going through the positive test thing myself so know how it feels. Really wanted to say, in my opinion, the reason you have 6.3k subs is because your so down to earth with your style, yet at the same time you are very passionate about things you believe in and that comes across as well. So keep up the good work, keep us laughing yet also thinking about things to. Hope you and your good lady get back to normal soon. Cheers.
Heeyyyyyy Maff love it welcome back! Damn I missed your videos pal. Thanks for the upload. Can’t wait for the vloggers social. Great to see you again tight lines.
Great to see you back Matt,love the cap with the sin gig straps at the side.get yourself a nice cheap pair of ten foot rods with small baitrunners( daiwa black widow rods) be a great set up for that pond,roll on the next blog👍🍻🍻
LOL I was thinking the exact same thing on this weekend I used to have bait runners and i really liked them Yep some ten footers are perfect for this place. cheers Phil regards Matt. 👍
Hi Matt, great to have you back on the Bank, looks like pre spawning to me but what a beautiful place to spend a weekend, fish are a bonus in a place like that, look forward to your next blog 😀, your looking good by the way 👍
Hi Matt , thanks for the reply, I've just been going through some of the comments after your reply to me and I noticed that you have replied to everyone who commented, it takes a special type of person to take the time to do that so thank you, that's what seperates you from the rest, by far my favourite vlogger 👍😁 (carpking71 is my next) we do live in the same place though 🤣, take care 🙂
Welcome back maff t great watch as always that lake spitting image of one of my club lake's but wish it was that quiet deffo looking like pre spawning most of my lake's looking the same..looking forward to the next vid 🎣 🎣🤞
Glad your feeling a bit better matt nice to see you back on the bank have missed your videos mate, it's not always about catching is it sometimes the hunt for carp is just as good. Onwards and upwards buddy.
Great to see you back , look forward to seeing more vids , looking forward to seeing the social one at long lake, I’m fishing there later in the year 👍👍
its quite a distance to for the social but its only once a year and its a great bunch of lads also actually just a few miles from where i was brought up as a lad so its a bit like going back home lol. 👍
Hi Maff nice to see you again and the quality of the video is brilliant. I'm sorry to hear that you and your wife have been ill with covid but good to see your on the mend. I was pleased to hear your taking Chris to France next year I think he will love it and yeah he probably will smash it and at least you won't have to be quite lol. Shame about the lost fish it happens but there's always next time so until then take care and stay safe my friend,
Great to see you back out on the bank Maff and really enjoyed your vlog and the footage with the new camera is great, that venue is stunning, look forward to your next trip mate take care.👍🎣
Nice to see you back on the back Maff glad you and your wife are getting better after covid. And you can see you have lost weight hope to see you and Dave back on the bank together or on your practice walks 🚶♂️
Hi Russ, Its been difficult to fit everything in, work is mad as always and so much to do and so little time as always lol and i still felt a bit crap at the start of the weekend. 👍 thank you regards Matt
Great to see you back mate really enjoyed this video it looks amazing there, just a little tip always put a bit of rig foam on even when using the pva mesh bag of pellets your still get a lot of tangles else the mesh back don’t stop tangles mate. Looks forward to your next video mate 👍
I do but its a very small channel please feel free to take a look www.youtube.com/@realworlddiscovery8406 or look on youtube for a video called "Seth Mors Grave" kind regards Matt
Hi Matt sorry to hear you've been poorly mate. Camera looks good on screen (HD) bit expensive to watch 4k on RUclips. Not the result you wanted but must be nice to be out again! That old camera was always brilliant so you had your moneys worth mate, new one still a camcorder? ATB Matt!👌👍
Hi Pau; That old camera of mine was stuck together with glue tape and string lol I even got a second camera of the same make and made one working camera out of the pair. But in the end its started to fail i hope i dont break this bugger so quick !🤣
Hi Andy No i haven't yet, one of the reasons i don't join big syndicates is so i can fish around the county at leisure and try places like sr fisheries, kind regards Matt and thanks for the heads up 👍
Deffo spawning behaviour. I was on Castlehead a week ago and the carp were getting Jiggy in the reeds. I had a couple of small ones (around the 8lb mark) but otherwise a bit slow. .Temperatures have been up and down recently so they don't seem to be all at it at once. Seems to have been spread out so always the chance of a couple of fish. I've never done much with zigs on RH for some reason, possibly need to spend longer at it .... lack of confidence maybe. Surface fishing can be good despite the ducks .... feed them off with a couple of whole slices away from your target fish! Some of the lads who concentrate on carp there would be a good source of advice. I'm more of a general course angler than a carp specialist! :o)
Hi Steve yes ive got a lot to learn about this lake and I'm looking forward to it, it certainly lends itself to short session fishing so I'm going to look at some smaller rods and really downsizing gear, awesome place .. yea zigs .... you certainly need confidence to fish them as most of the time its just black foam! 👍 regards Matt
Unlucky to lose that fish in the snags Maff, but I'm sure you enjoyed the session. Not sure if the fish were in pre spawn mode or not, as I don't profess to be an expert in fish sex life! Lol. Great vlog though mate, and pleased you and the wife are gradually getting over the virus.
Ratherheath is my local water. WADDA have brung the pond back to life compared to what it was with weed etc about 5yr ago good to see that they have stocked it with ghosties and 9. 20s biggest one going is 25lb..caught my pb out of there about 3 week ago it was 22lb 8oz..the carp up there love the lillies and fallen trees.using the right bait and tactics you will pull them out all day.hope to see you up there sometime 👌
Hi Brandon its just the sort of lake i like to fish totally un commercialized about as natural feeling as you can get (kudos to the chaps that put in all the hard work to make it so I hasten to add) yes my kind of lake and I'm looking forward to finding out its tactics and secretes. yes if I'm about there's always a brew on mate 👍
Nice to see you back Maff 👍🏼
