Great video aaron as always, defo enjoyed the longer video was a good watch. Defo stop beating yourself up mate and defo to hard on yourself! Even my (lucky) son struggled this january😂😂 keep up the good work man👊
I’ve had a brilliant winter despite not hitting my target on this lake! I’ve got some great videos coming up in the next few weeks! I’ll get back onto this lake and complete my challenge here soon! Tell your son to keep at it and I’m sure the effort will soon pay off! Warmer months are coming! ☀️
@@southcoastangler it's all about being out there trying mate and time is the worst killer too! I've no doubt we will see you soon with that 20lber in the net, defo going to beat dom anyway 😁, as long as your enjoying it your winning in my opinion, my son will never give up hes determined to get a 20lber this year🙏 look forward to next videos mate👊
Love watching your videos keep it up and keep going As for the solid bags have you tried putting in crushed, chopped and hole boilies in instead of mini mix I've had some good results from it
Hi Rob, thanks for the nice comment! I’ve not tried that in a solid bag but I have done that in mesh bags on different venues! Maybe I need to try it here!
Don’t know a lot about moon phases but chance of a werecarp on full moon lol another great vlog love watching you as I’m new back to it after over 15 years away due to tackle getting stolen but really enjoying been back on back rekindled that love and passion for fishing again but so much has changed sometimes I’m a bit lost and have to ask for help but learning all the time keep the videos coming
Hi mate just come across u I haven’t been carp fishing for years got into sea fishing but thinking about it again just wanted to know at the start of this video u said light leads for muddy bottom’s what size was it and can u show me your rigs pls ur pva bags look great Chris
Hi Chris thank you for your kind message! The bottom on this lake is not necessarily muddy but quite silty with a lot of leaf litter and twigs etc.. that’s why solid bags seem to have worked for me there. I like to use 2.5oz leads here so that they don’t bury in the lake bed and are still heavy enough to help hook the fish! I’ve got plenty of videos on my channel showing my rigs so keep your eyes peeled and you might see my approach on different venues!
Don't give up..Get back to that lake..Small windows for a bite during winter you saw a fish to you're rhs ..You have to sit it out sometimes bro..Keep at it..
Loving the long videos mate. Stop beating yourself up. Stick to the bags mate as you know you’re always presented and the bigger fish will come. Play the numbers game.
Yeah so my approach for next time will be one on a bag and I can use the other for other things.. from now on I will always have one on a bag because that’s my proven tactic. Thanks mate - I will be buying some treats off you soon 😉
This is why we go fishing because the next session can create memories that last and helps to forget the bad session every angler has of any standard hence those that have never fished will not understand the hours of pain we go through for those minutes of pleasure 🎣🎣
My thoughts - the 20lb challenge is doing you no favours, forget about it and enjoy your fishing Aaron. I have been carp fishing for 40 years and enjoy it every bit as much as I’ve ever done. Don’t look too much into rigs and tactics, location is key and feeding spells can be very short. Most younger anglers all seem to be fishing solid bags, try to be different mate 😉 Good luck for your next session👍
Love this message Dan! Thank you mate! I think sometimes when we set ourselves targets and we don’t hit them we can get frustrated.. but like you said I need to get back to enjoying myself and I know in time I’ll hit that target! Maybe when I’m least expecting it! That’s fishing isn’t it? Who knows what’s going to happen!
Thank you! I’m going to get back to this challenge very soon! It’s hard for me to make ‘plans’ as such with my work but I will definitely be doing a couple of sessions at orchard this year!
Feel for you, fishing can be so frustrating. If it’s your doorstep lake can you prebait? Trickling bait into lesser known spots regularly before fishing them. I’m sure you’d have a surprise or 2 if you did this, once the carp have built trust in those spots and your bait 😜 Stealth is the game though, you don’t want others finding/fishing your spots. Share the results after you’ve had that 20 😄
Haha yeah that’s the problem with making my videos and showing people where I’m fishing 🙈 pre baiting is something I will be doing next time round.. I think with the winter months I was just looking for a bite!
Thank you! I use the Fox EOS bait runners. In this video I use my 10,000 but there is a session on here that I used my 12,000 big pits. It was only because I was re-spooling the 10,000’s at the time haha!
What a vlog. Aaron. One of the best I watch. Talking to the camera. Well done pal. Keep it up.
Thanks for the support Scott mate! Top viewer!
We all have these times thinking what am I doing wrong. Nothing wrong that’s fishing. Love your videos.👍
Thank you so much for watching! Haha yeah it’s crazy how being in the right places at the right times can change everything all within a few minutes!

You’re not wrong! I’ve got some great sessions coming up on my RUclips channel on the next couple of weeks - making memories is what it’s all about 👊🏼

Doesn’t always go well but we keep trying, I have had some success this winter at Orchard have you got any plans to fish there this year?
Thank you! I’m going to get back to this challenge very soon! It’s hard for me to make ‘plans’ as such with my work but I will definitely be doing a couple of sessions at orchard this year!
@@southcoastangler I m going on Tuesday it’s only ten minutes away , so my local water, and caught some good fish on Jimmy’s through the winter.
When you had them 2 fish did you put some more bait out
I sprinkled a small amount of pellet and corn in 👍🏼

Snap out ov it mate keep up the gd work.do you want to sell your tackle.....
Thank you! I’ve got nothing for sale right now!
Lose the fruit and nut approach try a different type of bait carp go for fruit base baits during July to the end of November it's seasonal
Don’t worry I’ve done what I needed to do! You’ll see on Friday 😉
Good video mate, what reels you got
