Almost 500 vieuws and only 63 likes, people should be ashemed about them selfs. This man menages to put at least one saving tip in all of his videos, and he made a ton! So Hail to the saving King and keep them thumbs up!
Each week is like waiting for christmas to arrive, and the time then goes so quick, every minute is packed with information, and no sooner it starts it comes to an end, and we wait for the next one. Thank you Graeme.
This is why I love this channel 👌🏼 a proper knowledgeable fisherman who doesn't care about the latest best gear and most popular brand of baits. Had some great tips from previous videos and always cracking content keep it up 👍
This is the best channel for the beginner. You tell us what you're doing, why you're doing it, and how to do it. Then you actually show it. I've learned so much from the channel and it's actually showing results in my own fishing.
No fancy bait boats, spod rods, underwater technology, goo flavours and remote bite alarms. All this tech can put people off! Just good, proper fishing. Brill video!!
Graham is a different breed but most specimen hunters starts out like him. I started out with a couple of spinner rods and some monkeyclimbers. Every time I went to the fishing shop I'd find something and I'd think to myself 'well that's pretty handy' Now I have a set of gear with which I can fish under any circumstances and I've been to swims where I caught 10+ fish with some very big carp which I absolutely wouldn't have caught without my bait boat. Don't get me wrong, I'm not knocking the way Graham fishes (heck, when I go float fishing for carp I use one of my Granddads old rod and reels must be around 45 y/o now) but it shouldn't be the other way around neither.
I have fished Bury Hill once many years ago. One of the small lakes. Lovely place. Carp fishing has now sadly swamped our local lakes and I actually get comments when I pop down and floatfish with my small kit and stool. Even the swims are being urbanised to the size of a bobby with hedges cut accordingly. Even the fish get names there caught so many times. We have one 40+lb been out 5 times this year and that can’t be good for the fish☹️. It seems like anglers have forgotten other pleasures of fishing with ultra light tackle and catching other species. The cost of some of the tackle is astronomical and I’ve even seen a bivvy with a television Ariel, I go fishing to get away from all that rubbish!! Keep entertaining us Graeme , always enjoy watching you! Even the lockdown videos were great entertainment mate, thank you!
I know exactly what you mean..I once saw a guy set up an enormous kitchen tent next to his bivvy...he might as well have driven a caravan up to the lake and fished out the window...
As you said at one point Graham, " if you catch a fish, it's a bonus ". I often say that I don't go to catch fish, I just love the surroundings, and calmness of it all !! Escape from the daily pressures is priceless. Nice one Graham........ again !!!
Hello Graeme, fished in the same swim, many trips there its only a fifteen min drive, lovely lake though, might visit there later in the year, thanks for all the work, and the fun, you really know your stuff, all the best.
Graeme I like and watch nearly all your videos I go carp fishing and sea fishing in fact any kind of fishing I am 67 yrs old and been fishing since I was 5 and I know that the only thing squid is good for is, Tipping off black lug good god man you eat things any sane man would not turn over with a stick Seriously old boy keep em coming you are a true legend
Hi Graeme, there is actually a reason to ban tents on lakes. Some disagree, some agree with it but the general rule is it's a mild deterrent of what's known as the "Argos angler" - basically cheap, easily broken gear. Most places want only people who know what they're doing to do a night session. If you're using a cheap tent & the ropes come loose at 2am, accidents can happen. Bivvies are usually a lot sturdier and robust than tents so there is less chance of someone doing themselves warm in the pitch black of night. I often wondered this myself as some tents (green ones too!) looked like they'd the job for me but after asking my local lakes, this is what they told me. These are lakes that don't sell tackle neither so no fooling me. Granted I think you rocked up with a tent that looked sturdy enough I don't think anyone would bother you about it. They just don't want you getting a 30 quid tent from Tesco and causing yourself warm in the pouring rain at 3am because it falls down.
Thank you, Graeme. I love all your videos, you never fail to make me smile even when I don't feel like smiling. These longer adventures though I love so much, thank you for all your hard work that I know goes into making these films. :-)
Hey I find that when you have to use a big carp net tuck the net into the gap where the Y is. The weight of the fish will push it down into the net. Saves the net hanging down hitting stuff or tearing you arm off.
I just love Graham's outlook on Tackle etc... I must admit, I am a Tackle Tart, but slowly coming away from it, like clothing fashion too, I think it's age kicking in, I turned 41 lastweek and outlooks change in life... Its nice having lovely tackle, but so long as it does the job, thats all thats needed. lol also love how you try to hide makes and brands, then 2 seconds later we can all see what it is, lol, maybe use a plain bag Gaz, 90% of ppl know what they are anyways lol... ohhh I do love your videos, also makes me smile and cheers me up! keep doing you and doing your thing... one of the best RUclips Fishing channels... PS your matt needs to go inside the baby cradle matie lol
Love all the videos and im a old carper from the 70s so I remember the old gear well but the reason people buy all the new gear is because they make it more comfortable and you will catch more fish but you don't have to use them
Hey Graeme, I was on the fence on piling in tons of boilies on long sessions and just started using PVA bags/stockings to be more economical with the bait going in and I like the idea of the groundbait snowballs. Nice to see these tactics work, I'm a Yorkshireman so makes sense not spending so much to nick a bite. Great video mate!
I started just firing out a random pva stocking and hookbait last year to save on loose boilies,found I seemed to catch just as much . Mind you it was on waters where everyone was belting out boilies so I feel the Carp are well used to someone feeding them regularly ...just not me.
My all time favourite fishery - if I had to pick just one place to fish the rest of my life this would be it. Sadly I'm living too far away now to go there more than once a year or so... lovely to be taken back there by TA fishing
Great video again graeme! I think the answer to your no tent rules question is... The no tent rules prevents 'casuals' from night fishing who are only there to drink and be a pain etc... Anyone with the correct equipment eg. A bivvy are more likely to have taken angling up as an actual hobby and will respect the wildlife and other anglers. All the best👍
Hi fella I think I fished that swim more than 30 year ago and caught my biggest bream to date estimated to be well over 10lb also had some good zander from that lake. Back up north now and we dont have anything like that round my way so took up the fly. Tight lines love both channels guys. Martin
Great stuff - secondhand bed, rods, bivvy absolute star. Best way to go fishing. Recycle and reuse - I have rods 25 to 30 years old and they have scratches, chips, nicks but stlll land 30lb carp 👌
Exactly..old saying is.."Don't mend it ...if its not broken "..I don't even bother with rod bags now and haven't varnished the rods for years...The fish don't seem to mind.
hello Graeme , a great video s usual , my wife and children have just bought me a bed and bivvie for my 60th after getting back into fishing this last year and a half ,.TAF has been so insperational to me in that time,so thank you both so much for that,but getting more to the point and i know that you have mentioned so many times but these companies should be giving you gear to try it could only be better for amateur pleasure anglers but a bit better for there buisiness , only my thoughts but there you go , keep the great work.
Thank you Graham great video and very helpful info. If you had no rod, line or bait I suspect that you would jump into the lake and start walking around it looking for a fish using your bare hands. 😉👍🍻
A nice bit of relaxation with some vicarious fishing. Oh, and Graeme, I have a wonderful recipe for carp! Carefully dress and filet a good sized carp, and affix the filet to a fresh red cedar board. Season with salt, pepper and a bit of lemon, and put in an icebox for about twelve hours. After twelve hours, remove from the icebox, and pan fry both board and fillet in garlic butter. When golden brown, discard the carp and eat the board... (I know, that one is so old it has dinosaur doin's all over it, but I couldn't resist.)
@@alexgriffin8399 From my experience here in the US , they used to be considered a poor folks food, and there was a certain amount of stigma attached to eating carp (hence the old joke). However, this is mostly because people don't prepare them properly. They need to immediately get put on ice, and the bloodline needs to be removed. They are also sensitive to pollution, which can make them taste manky. Since they are an oily fish, they are a treat beer battered, deep fried and served with fresh chips and a pint. I am partial to a Harviestoun's "Old Engine Oil" and Theakston's Old Peculier, but, horses for courses.
I remember getting my first heron bite indicator in 1978 wired it to a extension box to reach inside my polythene golf umbrella (bivvy)🤣 had to pack it with cotton wool because the sound was that loud when it went off the bloke in the next lake struck!!!!
Next summer, try a reflective tarp over your tent to keep it cool. It also helps to keep it warm in the winter. Loved the scenery. Best to you kind sir.
I sincerely appreciate the amount of effort you put in to your videos to both inform and entertain us. This one looked like a herculean effort and provided us with great entertainment. Surely you must have to make several trips to the car to bring all your equipment to the bank, then you have to set it all up (rods, filming gear and the "tent"). Then after the session take it all down run it back to the car in the pouring rain. Yet you make better productions than the BBC without any support. You are a legend and thanks for continuing to provide high quality content for us to enjoy.
It can be a bit of an effort doing it all on my own,but the best item I have is Mike's trolley thing...it really is useful at my age. Can't think why I never had one before.(Still took 2 trips to the car/swim on this trip though,the bivvy and all that Carpy stuff takes up space).
My favourite time as a novice carp fisherman was when I had two odd rods, reels, bite alarms and a canvas brolly. People left me alone because I was obviously a noob. A noob who learned to catch carp consistently on the quiet. My friends used to give me space which made me a much better angler even though I didn't spend half the time chatting. A loner with fish on the bank. A very happy man.
I once bumped into a local legend on the Pit I was fishing, couldn't believe he was the demon angler I was told he was, three different rods, different reels, different buzzers, little pots of canary seed soaking, and a few hook baits, what a joke I thought! Next morning no carp for me, six carp for Cooperman! I learnt something that session.
@@robertmitchell9415 people see a popular bivvy, rods, pod ect and instantly you are a fellow "angler" who invites conversation (distraction) just by the first impression, imho usually all the gear no idea.

Social fishing is just that I never expect to put fish on the bank, its funny because I got a reputation for being antisocial 😂 among my friends who was known for out catching them despite using the same rigs, bait ect, they never twigged why...
I have a bevvy bed and I don't use it becoz i take my layback garden chair so I can have up right or laying down and it's cheap to ok i get the wife telling me of when I take it fishing but it's ok lol but I do love watching TA fishing and outdoor TA as well great guy's
Excellent video Graham 👍🎣. A dame shame with the broken rod top 😟. Could of hit a couple of those, feeding of the surface. Nice job dealing with the mishaps, trills and tribulations of fishing 🎣. Well done 👍🤘👍
Perfect timing on the upload Graeme, Option 1 - movie with the other half, yawn.. .. Option 2..watch an episode of TA latest fishing adventures.... Yep. It was a no brainer and totally awesome. Thanks for sharing great video as always.
great video. I am going carp fishing tomorrow and this is just what i need for tonight. thanks for great content, always. Regards from Copenhagen, Denmark.
Hi Graham , im a new sub. I found your channel after I came out of hospital and started my long road to recovery.. Love your videos, making my way through them all.. You've proven to me that you don't need to spend thousands to catch good fish.. Keep it up mate.... ps.. A series 2 of your Man Alone in your boat would be great 👍
4 года назад+6
Your fishing equipment is very good, you caught a big and beautiful fish, congratulations fisherman.👍🎣😉
Another great video, on another tack, do you miss the tropical trips, I know I do and my travels are nothing compared to you, but what I did the fish really did pull my string
Yes,sitting in a bait in the tropics pulling some lures and waiting for a crash strike from a marlin is missed...All that warm tropical air,blue skies and cold beers ....,but with air travel now it might be a thing of the past for me. The Bluewater species really do fight the hardest.
Man I love your videos. with all the turmoil in the world and here in the states it is so enjoyable to be able to relax and watch you fish heck you even make home repairs fun to watch lol thanks for what you do
SO...no CARPING about fishing from shore, sheltered in a tent! What makes the carp in your area 'good enough to eat?' Mike found a fine shoreside bivvy/cabana/whatever! For sure, condensation and sunloading need to be managed. Beyond that, heavy rains and high winds are no worry camped just inside a woodline or brushline. LOVE the room inside for over/under quilt on a raised bed. I suppose a 'canny' lad such as you are would balk at paying for another day just to enjoy the rain?
think we all got the message that you dont like spending money on anything....after 20 mins non stop reminders, while wasting money is never sensible , I enjoy going to local tackle shops and spending my spare cash to help support the local businesses that really need our help now. constantly trying to save money in times like these is going to kill our hobby shops off fast. Kind of feel sorry for your wife to be honest after watching since the early days,. haha
Nice must say over the last few weeks have enjoyed some of your back catalogue of fishing videos Last time I went fishing was aged 14 during the 6 week summer break the only thing I caught was a bread bag that got caught in the stream that flowed through the body of water a friend and I were fishing in. 6 weeks and no fish.... not a one, that was over 30 years ago Live on the coast now feel inspired to have ago at some shore fishing but don't think a bow and arrow will catch many fish but I do have some big old bolts, some aluminium thin plate " shinny shinny" and I'm sure the son in law would lend me a rod and line. What do you think?
Graeme I enjoy your video clips but I never know where you are. I suspect you have a lot of viewers like me who don’t live in the UK and don’t know the difference between Devon, New Castle or Somerset. Could you please show some kind of primitive map of Great Britain and point to the approximate location of where you’re going or where you are? It would help out a lot. Thanks, Roger in Louisville, Kentucky, USA
No way Graeme is going to go somewhere and not catch fish, I believe he could throw in a mud puddle and catch a fish! I like watching him though, he’s a cool Ol’ fella, I guess too because I’m close to his age! But anyway, get er done Graeme, get er done!!! 👍👍🤘✌🏻
G day mate i near on screamed when i seen you put the carp back, but then i remebered your in England. Here in australia they are a pest. So can not be put back in the water. Saying that thou been watching TA out doors and i just got on to u after a while i really enjoy this. U can make carp rissoles taste awesome. Anyway cheers
Ray finkle and Grahame loads better than that tosspot John Wilson!!!!!👍🏻 I always just remember John Wilson always used to be saying "come to daddy "bloody clown he is!!!😂😂😂😂
Graeme i would love to see a video of you going and catching big fish internationally... like sturgeon in canada, kingies in new zealand or massive GTs at oman? Whats the chances????
Sturgeon is already up..check out the vintage section in our playlist..also up are Pacific Blue marlin to 645lbs,Hammerheads from a self drive to 500, Tarpon in self drives to 160lbs,Bonefish,Sailfish ,Striped Marlin,300lb Yellowfin Tuna..they are all up there.
classic socks in trousers...i do that too..regarding the broken rod it looks like one of the more reputable manufacturers...they normally come with a life time guarantee...give customer support a ring..let us all know how you get on as its something that happens to many of us but we dont know about..
Another excellent video Graeme, thanks for making Friday night bearable again. Don't you just hate it when the rain comes and it's time to pack away? It's happened on my last three trips.
the rods may have been injured/damaged on the way to the spot, long before it was onto the fish bro. thats why its best to have the rods in tubed protection along the way. dont beat yrself up bro.
Good Catches and also a brilliant vidoe to you Sir🏅🏅🏅💯💯💯. Any Advice on how to land a Common Carp in South Africa. I've been using mainly soft baits, and our local feeds to attract and to also have a hook up. But in the past months they are more attracted sweet scents.

If you're only looking to drop a couple of boilies next to your hookbait, you can also get pva string.
It's a little bit cheaper.
Perfect timing on the upload Graeme, Option 1 - movie with the other half, yawn.. .. Option 2..watch an episode of TA latest fishing adventures.... Yep. It was a no brainer and totally awesome. Thanks for sharing great video as always.
Another great video by greame. Always great advice with a good sense of humour👍🏻
I live in Karachi Pakistan and I like your comment send 10 month ago
brilliant. funny thing is i had this swim today ! thanks Graeme
Legend has it this lake is almost as ancient as his tackle and tactics, The golf ball groundbait by the looks of it too.
and his clothes !! and have you seen the state of his car ?...and its not even camouflage green...got to be 10 years old if its a day.
great video. I am going carp fishing tomorrow and this is just what i need for tonight. thanks for great content, always.
Regards from Copenhagen, Denmark.
Same here in Aarhus ;)
Good luck with the trip..I just got back from Catfishing and nailed two,so well pleased.
Great vid TA. The music at the start is BRILLIANT my man
Always makes my day to see you've posted a video, keep up the fantastic work! :)
Michael's fancy carp rods broken but the ol trusty avons from 30 years ago still going strong!
"Excuse me, I think I'm using a normal fishing rod that's not broken this time..." Classic Pullen. LMAO! 😂
Graeme, it's me again. I think we should try to use baits sooner. The carp deserve fresh food.
Back winding is super invaluable for giving a fish line, even if you have a posh rear drag reel you should learn how to back wind.
Hi Graham , im a new sub. I found your channel after I came out of hospital and started my long road to recovery.. Love your videos, making my way through them all.. You've proven to me that you don't need to spend thousands to catch good fish.. Keep it up mate....
ps.. A series 2 of your Man Alone in your boat would be great 👍
Your fishing equipment is very good, you caught a big and beautiful fish, congratulations fisherman.👍🎣😉
Another great video, on another tack, do you miss the tropical trips, I know I do and my travels are nothing compared to you, but what I did the fish really did pull my string
Yes,sitting in a bait in the tropics pulling some lures and waiting for a crash strike from a marlin is missed...All that warm tropical air,blue skies and cold beers ....,but with air travel now it might be a thing of the past for me. The Bluewater species really do fight the hardest.
Love these videos, pure magic.
Man I love your videos. with all the turmoil in the world and here in the states it is so enjoyable to be able to relax and watch you fish heck you even make home repairs fun to watch lol thanks for what you do
Glad you enjoy the films..stay safe over there...
TA Fishing thanks sir.
Love the experts comments 😀 😄
Great video 🍿🍿🍿🍿🍿🍿
Broken rods are the way forward graham. Lol. You had me in stitches. Well done on the carp.
You know he’s living the life🇬🇧👍
Thanks Graeme always a treat
SO...no CARPING about fishing from shore, sheltered in a tent! What makes the carp in your area 'good enough to eat?' Mike found a fine shoreside bivvy/cabana/whatever! For sure, condensation and sunloading need to be managed. Beyond that, heavy rains and high winds are no worry camped just inside a woodline or brushline. LOVE the room inside for over/under quilt on a raised bed. I suppose a 'canny' lad such as you are would balk at paying for another day just to enjoy the rain?
think we all got the message that you dont like spending money on anything....after 20 mins non stop reminders, while wasting money is never sensible , I enjoy going to local tackle shops and spending my spare cash to help support the local businesses that really need our help now. constantly trying to save money in times like these is going to kill our hobby shops off fast. Kind of feel sorry for your wife to be honest after watching since the early days,. haha
Graham subject of broken rods how about a video on fitting new line guides
Nice
must say over the last few weeks have enjoyed some of your back catalogue of fishing videos
Last time I went fishing was aged 14 during the 6 week summer break the only thing I caught was a bread bag that got caught in the stream that flowed through the body of water a friend and I were fishing in.
6 weeks and no fish.... not a one, that was over 30 years ago
Live on the coast now feel inspired to have ago at some shore fishing but don't think a bow and arrow will catch many fish but I do have some big old bolts, some aluminium thin plate " shinny shinny" and I'm sure the son in law would lend me a rod and line.
What do you think?
Graeme I enjoy your video clips but I never know where you are. I suspect you have a lot of viewers like me who don’t live in the UK and don’t know the difference between Devon, New Castle or Somerset. Could you please show some kind of primitive map of Great Britain and point to the approximate location of where you’re going or where you are? It would help out a lot. Thanks, Roger in Louisville, Kentucky, USA
I enjoy all your blogs Graham
Indonesia is here steady greetings from us traditional anglers🙏👍👍
Been a pleasure old Boy, broken rods still work.
Bury hill. Good fishing
No way Graeme is going to go somewhere and not catch fish, I believe he could throw in a mud puddle and catch a fish! I like watching him though, he’s a cool Ol’ fella, I guess too because I’m close to his age! But anyway, get er done Graeme, get er done!!! 👍👍🤘✌🏻
G day mate i near on screamed when i seen you put the carp back, but then i remebered your in England. Here in australia they are a pest. So can not be put back in the water. Saying that thou been watching TA out doors and i just got on to u after a while i really enjoy this. U can make carp rissoles taste awesome. Anyway cheers
Very good video thanks you
Nash Bolt Machines for distance Surface fishing great video fished off the punts when i went love the fishery
How has this guy not got a rod named after him? I'd be queuing up for a Grahame pullen avon twin tip 🥺 come on rod makers what are you waiting for 😩👌
John wilson did and Grahames done more films than any of them
Ray finkle and Grahame loads better than that tosspot John Wilson!!!!!👍🏻 I always just remember John Wilson always used to be saying "come to daddy "bloody clown he is!!!😂😂😂😂
loving em Graham keep em coming👍👍👍
Keeping it real with the tackle graham so many tackle tarts with no water craft out there love the vids m8 😊🤙🤙
Fantastic, again!!
i love the long videos sets up my whole evening
Great video Graham. 😀👍🍀
Thx Graeme , Another Great Vid nice fish , love the cooking too . Just watched while waiting for my float to disapear :)
Graeme i would love to see a video of you going and catching big fish internationally... like sturgeon in canada, kingies in new zealand or massive GTs at oman?
Whats the chances????
Sturgeon is already up..check out the vintage section in our playlist..also up are Pacific Blue marlin to 645lbs,Hammerheads from a self drive to 500, Tarpon in self drives to 160lbs,Bonefish,Sailfish ,Striped Marlin,300lb Yellowfin Tuna..they are all up there.
The nash and korda team disliked this video 🤣🤣
I stumbled across it and was pleasantly surprised , keep up the good work !
Brilliant as always 👍
I like to hear you say how expensive it is to use boiled. Nice you're using horse feed. My lake I fish is 65000 yrs old.
Cheers
Bream get a royal treatment from you, they are so slimy I keep them out of my net. Also, thanks for sharing your knowledge and explaining everything.
classic socks in trousers...i do that too..regarding the broken rod it looks like one of the more reputable manufacturers...they normally come with a life time guarantee...give customer support a ring..let us all know how you get on as its something that happens to many of us but we dont know about..
Too late..I bought a pair of strong carp rods for £30 the pair....loaded up with 2 Catfish last night,so never a better test of a rod blank.
Another excellent video Graeme, thanks for making Friday night bearable again. Don't you just hate it when the rain comes and it's time to pack away? It's happened on my last three trips.
Packing up in the wet can be soul destroying,plus drying it all out in the garage.
Hi Graeme,came across your channel by accident.Fantastic,great educational videos for children and beginner anglers.Keep up the good work.😁
Its there to help hopefully....I feel I try to put something back into fishing,rather than just take it out.
Chris Kyle died in the battle rip
All wind, all rain, all week- I really do miss British weather.
I love a friday. Best vids on youtube.
the rods may have been injured/damaged on the way to the spot, long before it was onto the fish bro. thats why its best to have the rods in tubed protection along the way. dont beat yrself up bro.
Good Catches and also a brilliant vidoe to you Sir🏅🏅🏅💯💯💯. Any Advice on how to land a Common Carp in South Africa. I've been using mainly soft baits, and our local feeds to attract and to also have a hook up. But in the past months they are more attracted sweet scents.
When I fished over there it was mostly sweetcorn that I caught on,but bread also works,providing you can find the fish first.
Great video as always!!
I have the new chair from trakker. Very comfy and not to expensive at only £160. Deckchairs simply won’t do.
Awesome stuff Graeme. If it’s got one ring left I’ll fish it. Love it. 🤣😂🤣🤣😂
I would fish with the reel if had to.
