Superb feedback and thanks David! It's easier producing these videos when I just turn up to fish and Matrix (Craig Butterfield) does all the hard work filming and editing it! And yes mate, loads more coming :)
Fantastic video Jamie. A great guide to fishing big lakes in rough conditions with some good results. Fishing lakes in those conditions can be very daunting.🎣
Hi Jamie now that’s what I would describe as a proper wild water. Set in beautiful scenery with immaculate fish. If you had said that was Ireland i for one, would have believed you. Proper natural fishing without a greedy carp in sight, I wonder how many anglers could have tackled that if all they had ever done was chuck a method feeder 20 yards on a commercial! Absolutely loved that video. Regards Bill
Really glad you liked it mate, I think there's scope for more videos on venues like this don't you agree? They are so unpredictable aren't they. Do you fish venue's like this mate?
CATCH Fishing Channel Hi Jamie I don’t fish that kind of venue anymore as there are are not any in my neck of the woods. The nearest I have are some fair sized deep clay pits. But I used to fish in Ireland a lot on that kind of venue and I do miss them! Seems I need to head north to find some bigger wild venues. Incidentally I agree that on those wild days with a good wave on the fishing seems to be better for most species I assume it stimulates the fish and I used to find positive feeding was better, but not always! I think that we need more of these video’s if only to encourage people to try them and broaden their skill base.Keep them coming Jamie regards Bill
@@easyfishing1936 That's great feedback thanks Bill! Fishing in those conditions is all part of fishing wild natural venues isn't it. It's all part of the experience :)
Top angler and the very best video with the best editing like a Hollywood film. Great fishing as we can sometimes do at the best of times.on red letter day.but you are tops as norm, match fishing to me is all about plan, drew,times on lines that,s the very hard bit.but you get it right lots of the time,
Really glad you enjoyed the video Simon! Sometimes it's easy to forget why we're actually on the bank and that's to actually enjoy our fishing and on wild, untamed venues like this just reminds us doesn't it. Is this the style of video you prefer? I love these wild venues and I think they look great when they are edited this way :)
Glad you enjoyed it Sean! It is a day ticket water mate and if your on Facebook, they are even organising a festival on there but really glad you enjoyed the video mate :)
Really enjoyed this vlog Jamie, learnt a lot just watching start to finish how you fish, with the footage was able to pick up lots of tips, miss feeder fishing especially on Big natural waters, tight lines
Thanks Matt really appreciate the continued support I know you like these types of video. These wild unpredictable venues are special aren't they and are often overlooked these days. Would you like to see more videos like this?
what a venue, why can,t that be in Berkshire. I would imagine the slabs in there are massive..great vid Jamie keep them coming, and good luck with all your qualifiers in the future..
@@CatchFishingChannel hi mate i sort of do simply because i grow up with these river's in the days before the carp lakes really got going. The rivers now are fantastic sport mainly due to the restrictions the EU brought in on the myriad of farm chemicals in the early 80s and the rivers are now getting back to where they were before the 50s when the chemicals really kicked off in a big way my farther and uncles and grandfather's fished these same rivers so i have a good time line to go by. I can hold my own on the carp with pole or tip back to fishing them now the rivers are off. Used to fish the city lots this time of year but the council made everywhere permit holder only in the 90s or pay and display and that's made fishing there very hard. I just love fishing im on the committee for ndaa to help out cutting the swims would be down there the rest of days LOL
@@trevoror8668 I agree mate and I'm the same. I think my age bracket must be the last to have grown up on natural type venues before the commercials really kicked off. I think it's a great founding having all that experience isn't it :)
@@CatchFishingChannel it's certainly always interesting their a hardy bunch our Norfolk anglers with the truck we carry over some good walks and we are getting a lot of top name's coming now things are looking up for the match anglers on our rivers. Im looking to try my hand at some of the opens next year everywhere is a long way from here but you might see me about would be good to see you
@@trevoror8668 That's nice to hear mate it's always great to hear that matches and fishing in certain areas is increasing in popularity. Yes it'll be good to see you. Have a great week and thanks again mate :)
Hello Jamie, still not receiving your notifications but gonna get a new tablet for Christmas! Just up your alley the place you have fished, no doubt that you will be doing a lot more there. Good luck 👍
Another nice video, it looks like you are fishing in Ireland, the fishing looks great and fantastic scenery, its nice to see all these pristine fish from a natural water
fond memories of that place it was only up the road from me, we fished it back in the 80s early 90s, we fished at the crack of dawn, mostly small skimmers back then with the odd lump if ya got lucky, the more ya chucked at them the more they wanted as long as the sun didn't come out it was grand, , very enjoyable to watch,
Thanks Vince and I love to hear about your comparisons between your venues and the venues we fish here in the UK. Question for you, when catching Bream in Sweden, Fishmeal or Brasem? ;)
Brazem in 99% of the venues, I have just tried a fishmeal mix on a venue near me which has carp in it and it worked but it is very strange to me yet. I caught on hair rigged bolie even stranger😂😂😂😱😱😱. But you would love the big open waters here for bream.
Yes we do Jamie but it is very limited, we are very small number of match anglers in the whole of Sweden. Sweden does fish all the world championships though, the club and national team events. I fished for them in feeder worlds in Portugal but the support is limited for them to really compete. There are some really good anglers here, but you have to qualify for the national teams, no being picked and so the best team does not always go. But it is fair for all as they like it to be here.
@@CatchFishingChannel Nearly all skimmers then mate not many roach or perch or larger bream. Still needed sixty or so pound to do well. Semerwater and Castle Howard were both big Stillwater match venues at the time. Cheers Neil
@@CatchFishingChannel No fishing on there now mate but in the day it was one of the best bream waters in the north. The old fishery manager retired and the guy who took over was into pike fishing. There was some huge pike in there. The lake was netted and bream were taken out. the rest is history.
@@CatchFishingChannel definitely mate it was one the best bream waters around in the 80s by all accounts the bream are still there but locating them is another story!
Another cracking informative video, wish there were venues like this where I live. what was the thinking behind using a bell feeder as opposed to a cage or open ended feeder?
Thanks Andy glad you enjoyed it! Yes mate Craig has done a top job filing and editing it. The puddles on the car park were iced over when we arrived so it just shows you never really know what to expect on these venues do you :)
great video jamie,was there any reason why you didn't switch to a window feeder due to the amount of roach you was catching and the amount of particles you was feeding...many thanks scott
A big issue with the Window feeder is how it empties Scott and the Bell feeder was ideal as you can 'pack' loads of particles in there and just cap it off with a tiny bit of groundbait. They were ideal casting into that headwind too. Thanks for watching Scott mate really appreciate it. Do you prefer videos on these natural venues?
Thanks Tito! Yes it is! To be honest I rarely fish for Carp on natural venues but that is the same mix which I used in the Iberian Masters in Spain earlier this year mate
Great video as usual Jamie,ive noticed you seem to be using free running rigs without booms is there any reason for this, I have tried virtually every rig shown on the internet and still cant find one that is tangle free
Thanks Neil! I love using 'booms' and feeder links but sometimes when the conditions are severe and it's towing hard, I'm not sure that they make a big difference as everything is 'locked-up' like it is on a river and I like to use the tow as an advantage to almost allow fish to hook themselves. Does that make sense mate?
The problem I have is that I cannot find a rig that is tangle free,I mainly fish big open natural waters using a Horizon XD 130 to punch it out but on the retrieve I seem to tangle all the time
Hey Steve, on the longer line I used the XC that day. It's a kind of 'medium' range type rod which you can use to fish up to 60m sort of range with feeders in the 40-50g range comfortably with a bit of finesse. This one mate www.fishmatrix.co.uk/home/product/horizon-xc-4m-80g?c=rods
To be honest David until the last few months I haven't been using them in my feeder fishing purely because they were quite difficult to get hold of. I used them loads as a junior / intermediate angler especially on the canals but it's only been recently that I can get them so I've brought them back into my fishing especially when targeting Skimmers and Bream. The only time I don't is when small fish could be a problem mate
@@CatchFishingChannel going there next week been 10 years since i was there had some great days but you do beed that wind go when its calm you get few roach and perch,great video that pal got me wanting to go to wijd waters again
I really wish I'd tried that mate. But when the puddles on the car park were all iced over when we arrived we never expected as many bites so we erred on the side of caution to make sure we had a few bites haha
Cracking video... some lovely fish ... gods country ... LOVE IT !!! 😀😀😀🎣🎣🎣🎣🎣🎣🎣🎣🎣🎣🎣🎣🎣
Very Nice!
One of the best video ever, conditions, light, slow motions, details, colours, point of view, great great job Jamie!
