The care you have always shown for the sport of fishing has always been inspirational, but also the love of our environment shown in this video pulls on the heart strings. Thank you for showing the Love!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
This world would be a much better place if there were more young people around like you two! You appreciate and nurture everything outside of peering into a phone screen 24/7!
Nothing better than being outside fishing. You two are the cutest, much love to you. And: pick up your rubbish and we all can enjoy nice fishing places.
@@fishwithcarl You guys put so much time and effort in to help and entertain us, it's the least we can do is watch and support you through your journey.
Hi Carl and Omi, im currently revising for GCSE's and have no time for a good days fishing so these videos are a great way for me to escape and see some nice quality fishing. Thanks so much keep up the great work, WELL DONE!!
You can always make time! Get some maggots and get finding some free little local places you can have an hour or two. Don’t always need to be hours and hours or a full day session 🎣👍🏻 good luck with exams and getting some angling done
You guys are such fantastic ambassadors for the sport of fishing; care for the welfare of the fish you catch and care for the environment around. Keep up the excellent work. PS Fab news that Omi is full time with the 'Carl and Alex' team 😁
I have just found this channel a few days ago and have been watching all of your older videos. I love the antics that you both get upto! I just watched the "Blindfolded Fishing Challenge" video and laughed so hard! I am now thinking of looking into fishing where I reside. Please keep the fun videos comming.
Impressed to see you litter-picking - I do the same thing and it's great that you include it in the videos. Would be nice to see other fishing channels following suit so more anglers become part of the solution rather than part of the problem. Right, off to buy some fish stickers! Omi's drawings are superb.
I have now liked and watched every single one of your videos including Carl and Alex, Carl and Alex extras, fishing tutorials and Just Alex Just wanted to say thanks for all the tips and entertainment. All of your videos just give me so much confidence for when I go fishing
Omi's artwork is beautiful, I'm sure the channel is going to blossom even more because of her. It was kind of destiny, isn't it? Fishing actually made it happen - you two together. I guess she has no choice haha
Thanks for the sticker kit guys they arrived much quicker than expected, please say a special thanks to your dad from me for doing the postal runs. Glad to support the channel, I have learnt so much from you two over the past few years its the least I could do. The stickers are amazing btw omi is an amazing artist, the perch looks insanely real.
YES! Love these videos, always make me smile with their authenticity, honesty and obvious passion for fishing....... thank you and a belated happy new year to you all!
I fished for 40 years on tiny rivers in Kent. Fly fished still waters in the South East and Yorkshire Dale's. Did a degree in fishery Management in my 30s. Was an fishery manager in North Kent for 3 years. Spent 15 years as an aquatics manager, been a fishy bastard since I was 5. Haven't fished for 10 years now but I do enjoy your videos. Mostly because you fish in the kinds of places the child fisher in us always wondered about, like under A road bridges.....
I am 70, and cut my teeth fishing in the canals and rivers of London, Kent, Surrey and Hampshire. I then discovered fly fishing and have been all round the world in search of trout, salmon, tarpon, bonefish…today I’m winter fishing some NZ big rivers. But nothing gives me greater pleasure than remembering those days chasing Gudgeon, Pike, Perch, Roach and Chub. Love your videos - you have no idea how much sheer enjoyment they bring. Keep it up and love to you guys from down here.
Great video, so glad Omi is now working as part of the team and that the channel can support you all, never a doubt that you would go from strength to strength, can't wait to see what's coming next! Excitement level = 1000 😎👍🧡💚
Brilliant video, am introducing my son who's 11 to this chanel. He's started to get the bug for fishing, all organically and these are perfect. Thank you!
Great job on the trash clean up that is amazing that u did that!! I do the same when I go out fishing. U guys are awesome keep the water ways clean amazing!!
Keep up the good work. Looking forward to the pond reveal! Hats off to you for clearing the litter! I believe Co-op are selling litter pickers at the minute (at least in my area) would save your hands/gloves 👍🏼
Half of my stuff, especially the expensive Part, and probably me would have fallen into the water fishing like this... 😄 Nice one! And congrats for the New employee! Definitely a big win!! I like the stickers!!
Really enjoy all of your videos but especially like when you try locations that most would ignore . Amazing what lurks in those small forgotten streams and urban settings . Reminds me of my fishing days as a kid a very long time ago . Great job on the rubbish removal too !
Great film as always, just recieved your book Simple fishing guidebook and very pleased. Could become a modern classic. I have been fishing for well over 50 years but still find you writing and films inspirational, humorous and educational. Thank you both, regards, Will.
Great to see the Carl and Alex Project is growing with Omi now. I always enjoy watching your videos. Keep going youir great work. Gettings from Germany :)
Seem to forget that small streams can hold such joy... We have similar issues with littering on a local club stretch , breaks your heart to see it. We have such a beautiful country and wild life, some don't deserve to share it with those of us that care. Like the Guru rods, are they the N gauge? just got the 12footer for the Trent. Keep up the good work folks. Spread the knowledge.
Another great video. Omi answering Carl's question about actually enjoying the fishing sounded like she almost said "yes dear." Keep it up and i always love getting the notification that another video is up.
Just received the simple fishing guidebook, brilliant information and the illustrations are out of this world, great job lads and omi! Me and the girlfriend love your videos!
Ahhh thanks so much for your kind words. We really appreciate them. Really glad to hear you like the book! And always lovely to hear when a partner enjoy the content too :) and can appeal to everyone
Another great video and great to see how much support you have from your girlfriend. Nice that she is so interested in the fishing. Well done as well for cleaning the area up.
Here it is again - can't believe I'm seeing you fishing here! I used to mix a cheese/bread paste hook baits for the chub on the far bank, just using big clouds of soggy bread for ground bait - chub up to 6lb
What a great video! It took me a while to cross-reference drone shots and google earth images but I managed to find this fishing spot, you can even see two buses on satellite images. And it's only a 15 minute drive from my home!
Only recently got into fishing and oh boy I’ve really enjoyed it and is most definitely a new favourite hobby of mine, and most if not all the knowledge I have is from you guys, so thank you and keep up the awesome work lads.
Nice to see you fishing your usual fishing spot again . Great little place you’ve found . Especially for a right mixed bag of fish. Chilling once again . Lovely chub Omi 😄👍 nice to see you out with Carl fishing.
Omi’s become quite the fisherman in a short time👍. I guess it helps having “Carl-the-Carp-Catching-King” as your fishing coach and mentor!!! Great video! 🙂👍
Great to see you two out again nice catches too. Great job on the litter pick. Me and my son always pickup trash from the banks. So depressing to see what is obviously anglers litter, please guys you brought it you take it home. ATB
Really enjoy watching Omi (sorry if I butcher the spelling) catch fish. Genuine excitement! I try to clean up the areas as well. Always carry a trash bag. Never understand why people who fish are some of the worst at keeping the banks clean.
Cheers Stephen, really glad they made you smile. It's such a prolific little spot :) And still proving to be very rich in species. Which is great news, and so much fun. Little spots like this are always worth trying, as you never know!
OMI!!!! What a wonderful way to start the weekend. Thanks for sharing your adventure with us!! And Omi, you are quite the artist! Excellent work on the stickers.
Once again you have produced a great little video. The fact Omi has joined the team full time is very positive and I wish you all the best and look forward to see what the future of the channel brings
Fantastic guys, well done on the cleaning up! Hopefully you'll influence a lot more people to do the same, I hate seeing rubbish especially in area's of nature! Kudos to the both of you.
it's so sad to see how people do not care about nature and throw their dirt away without thinking how this is affecting the environment. nice video as always , hope many people will clean up the dirt of others as you did. I am doing it too everytime I find some. enjoy your weekend, greetings from austria ✌🏻
Excellent vid Carl and Omi.☺ I always enjoy seeing you doing some small stream fishing and well done Omi for banking that raggedy old Chub. You'll be catching more and bigger ones than Carl pretty soon.😀
I know the exact spot! I’m sure I fished the other side as a kid but more upriver, Great video once again, might have to go back for a little go one day
I really hope that some day the three of you will come up to Yorkshire for a weeks fishing. Preferably river fishing. We have some gorgeous rivers and countryside. If you haven't already done so I'd like to see you teach Omi fly fishing.
i'm currently working on the river aire flood defence project. it's crazy how full of fish that river is, seen 13lb barbel & 10lb brown trout pulled out of it just behind the train station. the leeds-liverpool canal has some big perch too where it meets the aire, up to 5lbs. it's crazy tbh, you have to see it to believe it.
@@markstott6689 there's a stretch of canalised river between the dark arches & a weir above the armouries, that's where all the big barbel are. they spawn under the dark arches too, if you go around june you can see em from next to the south entrance to the train station. there's a spot beside a footbridge just behind the train station where chavs hang out fishing cos you don't need a licence or something? they all sit there drinking beer, smoking weed & pulling giant barbel out using swedish meatballs from B&M as bait. i got talking to em on dinner breaks & when they 1st told me about the size of the fish i thought they were lying, but then i saw one catch a 13 pounder. it came up belly-first & i thought he'd foul-hooked a pike but no, it was this huge barbel lol. honestly, if i hadn't seen it i wouldn't believe it myself.
Lol that was literally me a year ago! Despite being raised in a fisherman family I had only fished for a year when I was little and then quit for 15+ years. During the pandemic I was so bored I insisted on renewing my fishing permit. My boyfriend and I were talking about it for ages but "it just never was the time". He had to teach me everything from the start but he didn´t mind. We have been together for 8+ years but the past year thanks to fishing was the best so far. I am looking forward for more couple videos, this is fun to watch :)
The joy in Omi's face when netting the chub says it all!
Cracking video as per usual 👍
Thank Simon! :)

sod the gcses fishing is more important
Take your revision with you
Exact same as me mate 🔥
Take a days break and go fishing it won't hurt 😉
Also good luck 👍
Seeing how happy Omi is while she's fishing gladdens this old angler's heart! 🙂
You guys are such fantastic ambassadors for the sport of fishing; care for the welfare of the fish you catch and care for the environment around. Keep up the excellent work.
PS Fab news that Omi is full time with the 'Carl and Alex' team 😁
Omi is a legend, not even taking credit for the stickers, that may I add look amazing! + the illustrations in your book she did are just so good.
Thanks Carl & Omi, keep up the great work. Always a thrill to get notified of a new Carl & Alex film! :-)
❤️cheers!

Thanks Nigel. Really appreciate it! Yes for sure, absolutely agree :) means a lot to share the importance of not littering and help clear it up.
I have now liked and watched every single one of your videos including Carl and Alex, Carl and Alex extras, fishing tutorials and Just Alex
Just wanted to say thanks for all the tips and entertainment. All of your videos just give me so much confidence for when I go fishing
Thank you so much!!! wow!! :)
@@fishwithcarl thank you so much for replying and it’s fine I really enjoy watching all of your videos
@@fishwithcarl also do you have any ideas of what rig I should use peperami on

A normal hair rig, or a blow back rig :)
Is there anything better than sharing what you love with the people you love? Great video as always!! Nice one Omi for joining the channel full time
Very special, couldn't agree more Huw. Thanks for your kind words, and thanks so much for watching
A "Gem of a video" cracking stuff and hats off to you both for the clean up,brilliant content packed into just 11mins.
Thank you so much Dave!! :)
Omi's artwork is beautiful, I'm sure the channel is going to blossom even more because of her. It was kind of destiny, isn't it? Fishing actually made it happen - you two together. I guess she has no choice haha
love this video many anglers forget to fish on rivers/canals anymore more some small rivers might look terrible but they can hold stunning fish
Yesss excatly you never know! Love trying some of these sorts of unassuming waters!
Nicely done Omi, took me a couple of years after I started to get a Chub that size. Well done to you both on the clean up as well
Thanks for the sticker kit guys they arrived much quicker than expected, please say a special thanks to your dad from me for doing the postal runs.

I should have looked for the van as I’ve driven past the spot a few Sundays In a row when out hiking 🥾
Love how you had the padding and left the mrs on the cold concrete 😅😅😂😂
I offered her that mat but she didn’t want it as it was smelly or muddy I think!
This particular stretch of river had me interested a year or two back, when I see the chub in the water, never expected to see the pike, I’m hooked 😂
I know right!! Last thing we expected down there!
Great stuff. Omi's drawings are wonderful.
Tight lines 👍
Thank you so much :) and she say's thank you too!
An excellent video, like all the others. Cheers! 👏

Awesome fish, I've caught a 12lb carp last summer at swillington Park fishery
Nice!! Well done :)
