There is always someone who has something negative to say. A lake that big will be full of wild life more than a empty field would be Your getting there mate keep it going 😁
Well done Ben. Congrats on your planning permission and your resilience in getting this project even started. It''ll be great to see this lake take shape and I hope to be able to book a fishing trip over from Ireland in the near future.
Joys of planning and a few job worths to satisfy., still hopefully only a few more hoops to jump through. Enjoying the Vlog and looking forward to watching progress, so please keep it coming.
So glad you have planning permission it amazes me how many hoops you have to jump through yet their is new build properties being built on any green belt land they can find at the moment. Look forward to seeing it dug out
I hope you get the permission & can start digging soon. I often thing how I would build a lake from scratch. Plenty of troughs and holes, a deep & shallow part so the fish are happy in all seasons. What an adventure! Keep going mate!
There’s always one Karen sticking their beak in coming up with ridiculous reasons for the prevention of a worthy project. And we only have to see the hurdles Clarkson has had to overcome in order to build his diner on his own property 🤦♂️ Looking forward to the next video Ben 👌
Yes it is, and to write a 100 page document as well, is unbelievable. probably an elderly spinster or widow with nothing better to do than complain about things that don't suit her point of view.
@@robinstenning9427 It sounds like he's got enough legal issues without trying to take someone to court. The objector will obviously claim it was justified.
Fantastic news but absolute nightmare with the planners. Massively highlighted by yourself and with Jeremy Clarkson on the farm. Terrible system that needs a huge overhaul. Look forward to the next Vlog.
You'll need to be patient by the sound of things. 8 weeks till the diggers move in, then it's got to naturalise, then fish stock introduced which will need time to acclimatise. Could be 2 years before it's fishable.
Take it as a positive, the best thing you can do is leave a body of water for at least one year before stocking fish. Spend that time enriching the aquatic ecosystems so your carp thrive when they go in. Collect invertebrates, mussels, snails, shrimp & establish macrophytes and marginals as habitat for the 'carp food' populations to explode, before stocking fish.
Even if you're making huge improvements, you're always made to feel like "the enemy" of local residents and council. You jump through all the hoops...but.. still get the impression that PP is given "reluctantly". It shouldn't be that way.
Well, there goes me using my last name as fowler fisheries 😂 unless you wanna team up and ill do my fowler floats as a side branch ? 😂 best of luck with the lakes pallie
A planting plan is normal for developments they want to know everything you plant where it will be and the environmental benefits. Most housing developments have to do this but don’t because the council don’t have the money to sue them after
hi buddy was just wondering how long till the next video UPDATE!! will be its been nearly 5 month and im dying to see were your now at any news on when you will be posting thanks
Great news Ben , but absolutely ridiculous that there’s still more red tape . See the usual council jobsworths doing what they can to help a new business venture.
Incredible (yet, sally, also totally believable) that water companies can legally - and pretty much instantly - pollute entire UK rivers with human sewage, yet it costs someone like you thousands of pounds and well over a year of your time to get permission to create a new wildlife ecosystem…
Hey Ben ! I bet that woman who put her broomstick into your plans is a bitter & twisted whitch Call her out on social media & I bet she’s not got any substance whatsoever & is a complete waste of space! Keep the faith! Brother
All planning and local authorities care about is bleeding you dry. Simple developments like this which promote wildlife should be a straight forward process. The Do-Gooders make everything complicated and frustrating
Reading your planning application, decision and consultations, I'm not sure I agree with your conclusion that you have been asked to do this due to a "one hundred page" response of your application. The objection I think you are referring to is making all of these demands/comments based on climate change and the Climate Emergency your local authority declared September 2019. Unless I am missing it, your Preliminary Ecological Appraisal doesn't specify a single species of plant, just that there are "no priority habitats on site". Demonising the locals & local authority is not necessary when all concerns appear legitimate.
Ridiculous, who the f has time to write a 100 page document about plants. Some people really need a reality check. Sure it's for the environment and I'm not saying it's bad. Yes annoying, although she should have spoke to you first about it.

Where’s part 3 or am I
Missing something ?
Loving these vids and so is my 8 year old daughter inspirational !
There is always someone who has something negative to say. A lake that big will be full of wild life more than a empty field would be
Your getting there mate keep it going 😁
It's a pond
Well this is the crazy planning system in the UK. Jobsworths, NIMBY’s and BANANA’s
I am amazed you are still focused on finishing this project. I'd have walked away and cut my losses by now.
Can't wait to watch the dig 🙂
Congratulations on the planning permission. What a long frustrating journey!! I’m sure it’ll be well worth it in the end 🤞
It’s just unbelievable the process Is ridiculous! Credit to you for your perseverance!
Well done Ben. Congrats on your planning permission and your resilience in getting this project even started. It''ll be great to see this lake take shape and I hope to be able to book a fishing trip over from Ireland in the near future.
That would be amazing! Lets make a fishery good enough you will not be able to help yourself!
Joys of planning and a few job worths to satisfy., still hopefully only a few more hoops to jump through. Enjoying the Vlog and looking forward to watching progress, so please keep it coming.
Looking forward to following this project all the way boss. But for the love of god... can you sort out a better Mic! 🤣
Thanks.

Absolutely superb news Ben. Exciting times ahead can't wait to see this take shape.
Every Anglers dream to create there own lake .
Great news Ben you've waited long enough 8 weeks more won't be long passing mate good luck with the dig mate
Just got to hope for an indian summer, if the rains come early that's going to make digging a real pain, not impossible but harder than you'd want
I hope you get the permission & can start digging soon. I often thing how I would build a lake from scratch. Plenty of troughs and holes, a deep & shallow part so the fish are happy in all seasons. What an adventure! Keep going mate!
He doesn’t need it ! Just dig it !

Looking forward to the next video Ben 👌
Grats on getting the planning permission…. Can’t wait to watch this lake taking shape. Hope to fish it sometime in the future.
Its annoying that there is always a grumpy local who complains for the sake of it.
Yes it is, and to write a 100 page document as well, is unbelievable. probably an elderly spinster or widow with nothing better to do than complain about things that don't suit her point of view.
@C B spot on mate. Have you watched Clarksons farm.. similar happened to him. The local grumpies moaned and caused him a nightmare.
@@WHURobKip No I haven't seen it but i can believe it. These sort of people are everywhere.
You should consider suing for your additional costs on the grounds it was a malicious objection without grounds!
@@robinstenning9427 It sounds like he's got enough legal issues without trying to take someone to court. The objector will obviously claim it was justified.
Well done Ben, perseverance eventually pays off, stick with it buddy, we'll be visiting you mate
Always enjoy your updates. Don’t really have skin in the game but look forward to seeing your progress.
Good luck buddy look forward to fishing with you guys
Nice one can’t wait for the diggers to come in and see it starting to take shape. 👍
Well done for persevering. The pen pushers at City Hall are nearly defeated
Can't wait to come stay and fish!
Looking forward to see how this develops
Awesome job Ben... come check out our lake digging series.. see where we went wrong!! Always happy for a chat about it, we are in Dorset!!
Congratulations!! That’s an epic milestone. Feel like that’s the hardest bit with anything like this 😂
Thanks so much!
Best of luck with it all
i love this series, keep it up lad!
🎉Yes yes mate 👏 you deserve this
Fantastic news but absolute nightmare with the planners. Massively highlighted by yourself and with Jeremy Clarkson on the farm. Terrible system that needs a huge overhaul. Look forward to the next Vlog.
cant wait to see this!!!!!
Finally man, wish you good luck!! you are maing your dreams true :D
The planning permission came through on a bday so I think I should be a 1st to fish it
Any updates yet Ben? Itching to see how far you have got and looking forward to seeing the final product!
FRIDAY 7PM
Come on Ben there must be something you can give us!! We wanna know what the latest is! ;-)
I can not wait to try and get there and fish it 😂

Can’t wait 🎉
Honestly with the quality of people in planning these days, I'd not even bother. Jobsworths, the lot of them.
Hurry up Ben 😊

Do you have any updates on the build as not seen anything for a while
Its enough to make you lose the will to live !!!
Admire you're determination but its British B.S that's why I left the U.K!!
omg you must be pulling your hair out with all the red tape, good luck pal
So this was 5 months ago are we going to get an update???
It's easier to ask for forgiveness than it is for permission 👌🤣🤣
why would he ask for forgivemess, has he done something wrong?
Jokes mate . So longwinded this country is ridiculous. Good luck 👍
where do you have but that shirt?
No update??? Has things gone wrong?
Where is our update mate . 😫 lol
It seemed all professional until he said crazy, sound like the old clip of the farmer taking over his dad in the tractor 😂
Good for you lad 👍🏻
Update??,
We want update 😅
Any updates?????

Jesus... I bet you're a laugh to be around 😴
@@fluxnosed I think you'd struggle to find any discussion surrounding planning permission to be an interesting one.
disgraceful the amount of hoops you have to jump through these days just to dig a lake. UK councils should be ashamed of themselves.
What's happening.... Still annoying planners flexing their muscles I assume 🙈🤬🙈🤬
this country is fucked no wonder people break the law
Ridiculous, who the f has time to write a 100 page document about plants. Some people really need a reality check. Sure it's for the environment and I'm not saying it's bad. Yes annoying, although she should have spoke to you first about it.
Blah blah blah get on with it!!!!
