***Day Ticket Carp fishing*** Taswood lakes, Fishing For Old Carp

well guys, were off to taswood lakes down in norwich where you can almost smell the sea!
To try catch one of the really old carp that reside there, but it turned out to be a right head banger and the carp had me on the back foot from the start and till....

[@Angrypostman1977]

One of the things I like about you is your a perfect example of how to treat the Fish and youngsters can really listen and learn from your experience thanks Gareth top man

[@banklifegarethcompton5714]

Thanks mate much appreciated

[@perrydarlaston4613]

You’re videos are funny if nothing else. 98% of people don’t catch is a real bold statement for Taswood. Not a difficult water.

I have fished taswood as a member and the place is stunning run very well. i spent a long time on the lake your on and had the biggest fish at the time the amazing ghost. from your swim under the left hand side of the willow pissing it down with rain stupid oclock in the morning but worth it 100% not sure if its still in there im going back 3-4 yrs. great videos top man.

[@banklifegarethcompton5714]

[@royclose946]

Well done Gareth half a wrap in the margins lol love that type of carping 👍🙂🎣🎣🎣🐟

[@banklifegarethcompton5714]

Yer mate i love all that sneaking about trap setting:)

[@stringsgb8833]

I'm always impressed with the size of the meals you eat! Good vid as always 👍

[@ANGLINGADVENTURES-HD]

Enjoyed your vid 👍🏼
Taswood is only up the road from me and fished it a lot in my younger years..
Pretty place, but like you said in your vid not really my cup of tea either..Bit to commercialised for my liking..
Your vids are very relatable and your grub you cook up is top notch 👌🏼

Fished there in the 80s when it first opened. Changed alot since then. Still a well run fishery.

[@banklifegarethcompton5714]

Very true mate its well run and its really chilled out to.

[@peterfolkard8991]

Taswood is a very very hard lake to fish finished it several times with nothing so good job well done

[@nickcooper4618]

[@divvyinabivvy]

[@bhfishing8572]

Just found your channel , I'm going to try this venue soon as it's very local, what was the name of the lake as I think there are a few there ?

[@justsamuelhaze]

What lake is that on the complex? It's not the biggest one there, i think heron, fished there few times, had a couple out of there, nice fish mate

[@zebedeevlogs32]

Nice going G. Keep on scoffing!

[@banklifegarethcompton5714]

lol mate thanks

[@jamesedwards1112]

98% people don’t catch? I was a member for 2 years and between me and a couple of friends we emptied the place , easy lake if you know what you’re doing, best spots are in the open water 👀

[@jamesscott3294]

I've seen the balance baits across the screen do you use them personally if so any preference to their baits for this time of year thanks

[@rebeccacullum7254]

Hello gareth i like all your videos on here. I dont spose there will be a chance you could fish billingford lakes.

[@banklifegarethcompton5714]

Thanks Rebecca il look in to it:)

[@chucky1golf]

[@banklifegarethcompton5714]

Thanks buddy:)

[@bammy082]

I've had 32lb ghosty out of that swim😁

[@satnavgav3550]

Smell the sea??? You need to do an evening course in geography or go to the doctors 🤣😂

[@banklifegarethcompton5714]

Whys that i said i could almost smell the sea air i was 20 mins from the sea

[@nwatts5196]

I literally live next to these lakes. I can see bivys across the field from my house. The nearest beaches are a 40 minuite drive if you dont hang about and the traffic is flowing. I cannot and never have smelt the sea. Maybe the maltings a mile and a down the river but not the sea....

[@02CheeseKid]

Please say it’s merrington 👌🏻

[@banklifegarethcompton5714]

Ha ha mate il have to have go over there just for you bud

[@tommyjohnstone540]
