you know mate you have helped me so much this summer my pb has gone from 7lb to 13lb. thank you mate
Keep going mate ! 🎣 🏅
I have recently took up feeder fishing at the age of 76 and your videos have been very informative and helped me a lot with lots of tips keep up the videos and tips
I would like to thank you for all the videos I’m a pensioner in my 70s I fish German lane for accesabulity as I can’t walk far anymore I got my pb a few days ago using a 48p loaf and a washed out waffta my cheapest days fishing I’ve ever had once again thank you
Thank you for taking the time to watch my videos Alan ! Hopefully we see you around 👌🏻🎣
you're right about the choice of peg, I would choose the same on the other side near the lillypads
I'm 73 and most of my summer fishing is for surface fishing for carp, I love it!!! Tried all the dog mixers and found Pets at Home own brand mixer to be the best. Perfect size and float well. I always band them using a smallest hook I can get away with, usually a 12 or 14. The fish are not stupid and soon twig what's going on and if everything goes except hook bait I found it is best to move to a different swim well away and try again. Recently had a 17 lb 7 oz common on dog biscuit and a size 14 hook with a 5lb hooklength. And don't forget to grease the leader to the hook.
Some great information! Thank you 🎣
I have recently took up feeder fishing and your videos have been very informative and helped me a lot. Cannot wait until your next one. Thank you.👍🎣😊
I’m really glad they are helping Mike and you are picking a couple of things up 🎣
Great video im only 12 but i love fishing 🎣 especially the method
Good lad ! Keep it up Lukas ! Thanks for commenting 🎣
Just thought i would add a new comment as i fished here this monday 5th august 2024, all 3 lakes have just had a full makeover with pegs redone, excess reeds removed and trees and branches all cut back, gravel tracks and pathways have also been added.
Decent days fishing as i had set out to catch silvers on lake 1, but they were just finishing off the work so ended up having to fish lake 3.
Grand Total 48 fish of which 18 were carp upto 11lb 2oz.
7 of them were doubles
I may give it a go soon
Hi mate,fished this place twice it’s a nice place but not prolific.I fished the pole on lake 1 the first time caught all day but they was skimmers only one small carp and 1 tench.I didn’t see another carp caught either by the other two blokes on.Second time I got on lake 3 it was really slow a full lake and maybe 5 carp come out all day.All on bread on the surface,again I got one small carp and loads of bits nothing decent.Lake 2 looks the best I had a walk round and seen several fish landed I couldn’t get on lake 2 it was full.still a nice place and you had some lovely fish out.I’m thinking it might fish better when it cools down a bit on that lake 3 👍
I think it could have something to do with the fishery being fairly deep because you find the same at high heyes ! The carp are usually up in the water. But like you say it would be interesting to see how it fishes into autumn 🍂
Just thought I would re-post this from one of your earlier Vid's Matt as It's on Topic in case some missed it first time? ..................
Many a time, Carp will take loose fed dog biscuits, but will refuse the one with the hook!!, may have a lot to do the difference in buoyancy due to the weight of the hook. If that's the case, try carving a Large, Similarly coloured, Pop Up Boillie into the same shape & size as the dog biscuits.
The Pop Up is more buoyant & will counteract the weight of the hook so it looks more like the same as the Freebies!!
Thanks Martin !
Never used alarms for feeder fishing I just use quiver tip one rod keeps me busy must be hard work using two
i luv the fisherie reviews matt...by coincidence im fishing a new water ..im 5 sessions in ..and learning about it!...tough at first but now landing more fish...talking to regulars realy helps and using ya own watercaraft knowledge usualy sorts it out!..keep em coming ! both of ya...the best channel out there ..keep it real!!....
Working a fishery out is the best part ! Finding the little sweet spots you can rely on. You will know yourself that carp can be held up feeding on a dinner plate size patch of ground and ignoring other areas 😂
Great video I’ll tell you what i don’t know if you might have fished it but whitmore fishery east lake is a awesome lake for method feeding I always bag up and carp and barble
Hi Westy, great video as usual. You could try fishing a little lighter when surface fishing as the fish can spot the line against the sky. I firmly believe that's why they pick off all the free samples and ignore the hook bait.
Like the dog zigg mate.nice bigger common eh like you say westy they are very wary on top.we have a fishery near us that's chokerblock full of carp but everybody seems to do well on top.
Well done westysangling and i went to heskin old farm and pete paddock on youtube and he was famous and see ya
Thank you very much westysangling
❤
Hi Westy a great fishing video and can I have an appearance fee because that’s me sat on the Shakespeare box lol, you should have said hello and explained who you where I’d have subscribed that day, , a little about me Iv recently taken up fishing from over 25 years ago and the tackle an box I was given to me and I tend to float fish but I’m impressed with peoples result on the method feeder so will have to buy a method feeder ledger, also il have to save for new tackle and be like you and have my rods n reel setup in the bag, on the day we caught some small roach and bream perch, carp I had a possible double but not sure as we didn’t own any scales and the other angler George who is in 70s caught a few carp with method feeder and and a possible double and he caught them right close to the banking he shouted me over look there feeding real close in, then last Thursday we went back and I went in your swim and we have scales now and I caught an 8lb 13lb mirror and later on again on float I hooked into something close in the margin where you were fishing and I couldn’t do anything with it and it stayed under the water and snagged me it was on my hook length broke it probably would have been my biggest ever fish I played it for a good 10 minutes before it escaped definitely a double as I had 10lb line an a 7lb hook length, you taught us something as we didn’t know you could fish on the top with floating biscuits at Heskin, I’m in my 60s and still learning I need and have been practicing my knots but I need to save for new rods etc and be more lightweight etc, keep up with the videos and if I ever see you at another venue or Heskin again I will come and say hello to you and your dad take care and tight lines
Haha you should be paying me for your 15 seconds of fame Pete ! No I would never disturb anyone fishing, some people go to relax so I find it rude 😂 I am glad you have been back since and had a slightly better day ! Of course if you see us say hello 🎣 bumping into more and more people on the bank these days. Look after yourself and tight lines, enjoy your fishing journey 😄
@@WestysAngling cheers mate and I’m enjoying my fishing lots more now than I did years ago and I enjoyed it back then, iv set myself a target of a 20+ or more carp and a decent sized Barbel, Iv recently had a 5lb bream which is the biggest bream Iv seen can’t imagine what the double figure bream look like but I do like fishing for roach n perch Iv never fished for pike yet think I’d need to find someone who fished for pike to teach me how handle and unhook pike safely first
Great film pal,never seen Heskin so a great insight and put the fishery on my list 😊 just shows on the hard days by mixing your approach up you can still land some quality fish and save the day 👍💪😀🎣🐟
Well done pal 👍 👏 👌
I think you would like Heskin Tony ! Not far from your other spots either 🎣
@WestysAngling
Deffo on the list Matt 👍
Great vid ….. will be there soon, ending the current east of England back home in my original home county. Meet up with ST and plans for fisheries. That pond is notorious to fish for me having BLANKED whilst the pond adjacent to the caravan pitches (east acces for our less able fishers) always always produces fine fish decent weights. Brilliant vid yet again and next venue hard to guess butMatt will make the right choice 😅
I have somewhere a little bit different in mind for the next review 👌🏻🎣
Great video again Matt ,hard day but surface fishing paid off in the end so not all bad ,keep it up channel is fantastic 👍👍👍
Can’t stop watching you westy. Been watching 4/5 videos a day 😂. Just made my first order on ya website aswell, very tidy and simple website. Smashing it mate 👍🏻
Cheers mate I appreciate that ! Thanks for that ! I will send you your tracking information later and post first thing in the morning 👍🏻🎣
@@WestysAngling nice one bud. Ordered some of the pineapple wafters along with some other bits to try out next weekend👍🏻 love the videos with your dad, cracking pair 😂
Mate you’ve just reminded me I dropped a load of ringers pop ups on my last session 😂
Mate you helped me to catch. A ten pound Carp on heskin pond 2
That’s awesome!!! Well done 🎣🎣
Well done Westy, hard day but you and your dad manage to get few.
I had my first blank session here in UK today on a new specimen lake that I never been but I will go back more prepared.
P.S a guy next to me manage to hook a brilliant 21lb common on dog biscuit, I have to learn this kind of fishing. ❤
It’s definitely a skill needed in your toolbox for hot days in the UK ! Sometimes no other way to catch them 🎣
@@WestysAngling btw awesome merchs you got there , it’s just a bad time for me to spend , once I’m back where I need to be I will get some of them 👌❤️
Hi I would recommend oak roa fishery lake 2
how you don't have more subscribers is a mystery I've been telling fishing mate to watch your channel the info and tactics love it hope it grows cheers for effort you put into it not easy doing you tube keep going
We will get there Paul ! The channel is growing pretty consistently 🎣 massive compliment that though mate thank you!
Just back off holiday missed this being posted. late in the season now, so ur right the fish are very wary, im down to size 16 hooks on the mixers now to induce the bites.
1st peg i tried was the lillies, tried it twice conviced it would fish netter, 3rd time before i started catching well from them. Theres a reason its called fishing and not catching lol.
Just had a fishing holiday in york and only caught 15 fish in 5 days....8 others fishing only had 9 fish between them...gruelling.
At least nobody blanked.
Sounds like a rough trip Ste 😂 hope you enjoyed it anyway. I’m interested do you fish your mixers on the pole ?
@@WestysAngling most tough trips end up being enlightening. 1st time on a lake so big, 10.5 acres, i was rewarded with a 22lb10oz mirror carp eventually and a far better insight for next time.
Re dog biscuits... mainly on the pole this year, but for the previous 2 years whilst my back was playing up always on the rod.
I always have the controller float set up in my rod bag and always use it at heskin3, the carp hang off the brambles at the far point of the island where your dad was fishing.
well both looks like you had a hard day of fishing most probably dew to changes in temperature and pressure i was in the same boat last sat but still a few out and had a good day.
I think it’s important for people to know that you can’t always empty the lake every time you go fishing ! There are always going to be times or fisheries where it’s slow and tough and that’s not always down to technique or bait 🎣
I got asthma attack just watching ya walk to ponds😊
😂 it’s a fair old trek
Nice place to fish , maby next time u find the sweet spot on that lake :)
Hopefully! We will definitely give it another go
Iv been using a bait band to hold a hard biscuit to the back of a hook, couldn’t tell you if it works tho 😂 saw the idea on a carp video.
Superglue is good as well !
Good place that mate. Was good to meet you today thanks for the cap. Looking forward to seeing the video from today 🎣
Nice to meet you both Wayne ! Make sure you join the WestysAnglingCommunity group on Facebook! facebook.com/groups/976503810032965/?ref=share_group_link

@@WestysAngling meany thanks and if u ever come to essex to do a bit of fishing let me know and the days fishing is on me
Hi westy there not daft them fish😂 nice to see you and your dad back on the bank , the fish came through in the end,love watching your vids so much ive started my own channel Gary's Angling Pursuits nothing on your level😊but id thought id give it a go have a look and give me some tips if you get time cheers ...
Nothing wrong with that Gary ! If I can do it anyone can do it 😂 I hope it goes well for you. Nice little hobby as well as fishing. Your right 😂 they aren’t daft!
Just picked up my second hand Shimano Speedmaster rod on your recommendation, no pressure, I haven’t had chance to test it out yet!
You won’t be disappointed! 🎣
Great video as always, ya should of weigh that first common i think I had this fish first time I when & weighed it at 11.7
Your Facebook message makes sense now 😂 it’s definitely the same fish ! Not only are we all fishing the same places we are catching the same bloody fish haha!
Fishing seems so much cheaper further North. I'm in Norfolk and I'm paying £10-£15 a day. Also I've never known of a local lake to have an honesty box, we have baliffs that come and collect your money. Some of them are at your peg the second you set your bag down. Some of our lakes have some stupid rules too. At the minute I'm paying a tenner for 6 hours of fishing.
My mrs throws a total wobbly if I even suggest putting maggots in the fridge !
I bet 😂
Have you thought about getting a wireless mic for your Dad? It would be interesting to hear both of you as you are talking to each other.
He doesn’t talk much mate 😂
Can you use grounbait in a hybrid. Feeder also are deadmaggotts ok to use as hookbait
Nothing stopping you!
Tks pal cracking vids as usual
Only thing that puts me off is the no pellet rule other than that look a nice place
I don’t think they are too strict mate you would probably be ok
Yeah but being a wafter and pellet man I'd bad breaking rules lol
You were 100% right about not fishing the day after a bank holiday after all the idiots overfeeding groundbait by the bucketful and feeding the fish off for a day or two and spoiling the fishing for everyone.
😂😂 very true !!
That's surface fishing for you westy m8! Can fire 50 of them bakers in & they will eat the other 49 🤦🏻♂️
So true 😂
Can you please do a session on coppull mill ?
Coppull Mill ! Wow, that brings back memories, I don’t think that’s ever been a fishery worth fishing as it ? 😂
@@WestysAngling some good sizes in there but can be a hard session
@benshaw7876 what kind of species and sizes do they have in these days ?
How come dad's got the heavy load 😂
My tackle caddy 😂
Not sure if i missed it but did you rate it out of 10?
I don’t do that anymore ! I don’t think it’s a fair thing to do for the fisheries 😂 id give it a 7 👌🏻
what alarms do you use ?
I did have the Sonik sks but one broke …so the ones I’m using in this video are sonik gizmos 👌🏻
If your getting line bites change the hook length dont bring your rod back 🤦♂️😂
How would changing the look length on the method feeder effect line bites? A line bite is when a fish catches your mainline. If a fish is catching your mainline Lisa it means the fish are moving around closer in towards you . Hence why you need to drop the feeder back until you are on the fish. 🎣 tight lines !
@@WestysAngling or the fish are eating the food on your method feeder and sucking in your bait and spitting it out therefore you get line bite whole reason it has BITES in it so abit of advise from a sponsored angler shorten your hook length 👍
I’m happy to take advice off anyone sponsored or not. But a fish sucking and blowing bait out but not getting hooked wouldn’t cause any indication on an alarm or a tip. Just watch some of the underwater videos out there, a fish has to move the feeder a long way before you get any indications. Why would anyone shorten a 4 inch method feeder hooklength? Any shorter would be counter productive
