Smashing video as always this pal and what a gem we stumbled upon! Let’s make sure we look after it and anyone who figures out the spot does too 🤣 effort my man - effort!!
@@adventurefishinguk I'm a newbie to fishing, I watch all your videos and as you can see in my video I got a 20 inch trout, I'm going carp fishing in a couple of weeks at a caravan place we've booked. I will post my results of the day on here, 😁
I remember a fishing club using this reservoir about 30 years ago. The tracks into the lake ran upto the boat house now long gone, and people flyfishing from from the boat. When the reservoir is full there would be little bank to fish from. Love the videos 👍
@@adventurefishinguk Thanks. Didn't catch today lads. A lot of boat activity which is par for the course I suppose this time of year. Great day out though! 👍
Tell Harry that I finally took the plunge and bought the very same Rigged & Ready two in one 4WT & 6WT travel fly rod he uses in other videos, and it’s simply “smooth as butter”. 😇
I use google maps very often for fishing purposes hahah, to find spots but also to see how I can get to spots that are kind of 'hidden' but also to see how waters are connected, and to see where there are nice bridges. Google maps is very very handy for it.
Nice one lads! It's the expectation that trumps the weather in my experience - that next cast is going to be the one! And even if it isn't, well, I've earned a brew and a bacon roll! As always, loving the enthusiasm and care and respect for your catch. 10/10.
Do you use barbless hooks? I've just changed to barbless hooks because I noticed that barbed hooks can make a bit of a mess in the mouths of juvenile fish, especially if they are deep hooked. I've noticed that I do lose the occasional fish when I am playing them, but unhooking is an absolute doddle compared with barbed hooks
I do use barbless mate yes especially with trebles. Something like a small single hooked jig for perch though and I'll probably leave it on 👍 Barbed trebles can be real trouble for a trouts mouth
I ordered a new fishing spinning reel because my old one broke, I ordered a Abu Garcia Revo 2 x 3000. Mainly for perch and zander, is that a good choice? And I also purchased braid line to put on it, 0,15mm braid to be precise, is that good? Or too thick?
To be honest mate I'm a firm believer that little differences in gear and line like that don't make much difference so I'm sure it'll be fine! I've never fished for zander so I'm not sure on that, but for perch personally i's go a bit lighter. Doesn't really impact it that much if you use fluorocarbon leader!
😁😁😁😁😁😁The boys are back in town 😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁 That’s the kind of spot dreams are made of ….. there must be loads of fishing spots like that all over the place. As long as you did all the homework like you boys did and there’s not any no fishing signs or trespassing of any kind then surely it must be okay ……. Proper wild fishing and there could be some proper wild monsters hiding in there !!!!! Cracking video buddy and looked like you boys had a cracking time ….. love it 😍 👍🏽
Thanks John, never a dull moment when Harry's around thats for sure! And yeah it's always fun to find new places, found plenty on google maps over the years. A great resource 👍
Love it lad, jus broke my rod so finally upgraded to a fish rig 180, hope it does well for me, I’ll be fishing in the lakes the whole of September and august
Great video George and Harry! like I said before always great to watch this duo at work 😂 great find on google maps! Always love to look for spots on google especially finding ones like these! Well done guys 😊
2:22 Those be Rhinosadobbiecow prints my friend, Brown bear bloody ridiculous ; ) What a great location a real hidden gem, i wonder if there are any Pike in it's depths? All the best.
Silly question from a beginner, is there anything on your line aside from the spinner and a swivel on the fluorocarbon? I like wandering about with minimal kit and a travel rod but I never know whether I should be weighting the end of the line a bit to help with casting or something? Lure fishing is my favourite but I never really know how fast to pull spinners back in to keep them at the ideal height in the water. Cheers for the video 👌🏻
for faster moving water I like to use a small splitshot right before the swivel. but if you're fishing something like a pond or lake, the depth at which are spinner will turn is determined by how long you let it sink
I dont use any weights and sometimes not even a swivel for smaller fish. You can manage the depth of your spinner with retreive speed, and how high you hold your rod tip!
@@adventurefishinguk Perfect, thanks mate. I’ll keep messing about until I get it right, at the moment I seem to let things drop too much and I keep losing gear in snags and rocks.
Hi George I'm having trouble finding jig heads for my lure bois, and other things of a similar size, any suggestions as were to find some at a reasonable price?
Hi George and HH-just ask Harry what HH stands for. Glad to see the pair trying to enjoy you self in the rain. I have a place i sometimes go to fish which i found on Google maps and i have never seen anyone there and no signs. thanks for sharing the vid. Micky👍
No better way of fishing I do this myself and find some good old stretches hope you enjoy ur fishing next time ur out and about ik fishing can be hard even more so to film it grate content keep it up 🎣
@@adventurefishinguk I haven't used mepps for a long time, I had a load but they were stolen and I like I can just buy 10 savage gear spinners in a box for about £20. I had a load of dam spinners as well that I was gonna buy again but I can only find them in single spinners.
Great video mate . Just been up there tonight for couple hours .had quite a few fish . The water is even lower now . Ive lived in garstang all my life and ive never seen it that low before .
@@adventurefishinguk i do a lot of boat fishing on windermere. U and bang average are welcome to jump in for a few hours if i ever see u up there mate.
@@adventurefishinguk yea its been a bit tough pal. Quite a few perch but i manly pike fish . Fished it for 20 odd years from the boat .Im gonna be fishing all winter on there from september onwards so if u fancy a trip mate your more than welcome. Where u based . Im in garstang pal
Thanks for subscribing mate! Unfortunately there isn't really one good place to buy them so I use a few. Local tackle shops, angling direct and predator tackle to name a few! Hope this helps
@@adventurefishinguk it's ok. I thought you were somewhere else. You've got nice unexpected (for me) places there in the UK. Looks like somewhere else I mean. Guess I don't know much. All the best from Sweden.
@@Tommi1981 I know what you mean, we have some incredible places here in the UK but some of them are hard to find and access. Probably got nothing on sweden though!
Great vid lads 😁👌🏼 some lovely wild browns I’ve only been lure fishing for wild browns up here in Scotland for a few years n wish I had got into it earlier but once I caught my 1st on a vibrax spinner which I found in a tree I never looked back I mostly use Mepps and Rapala hard plastics n some Salmo cranks I’ve never caught on soft plastics so it’s something I really want to try more anyways excuse the rant 🙄 just subbed as this is right up my street 😉 Take it easy n Tight lines ✌🏻💙👍🏻 💙🎣🏴
Thanks for subscribing mate I really appreciate that! Yeah spinning for trout is greta fun, I find they aren't too picky about lures and with these wild fish it's more about finding them than tempting them. Can be the other way round on some days though! All the lures you mentioned above are great choices
@@adventurefishinguk i had some trout follow my lure in and 2 bites but no fish, defo some nice fish , its just a ball ache the walk down to it, im getting lazy in my old age, i wasnt using the best lures
Sometimes i do, but for the most part it's a mystery! Makes it a bit harder when there's a chance thousands of people are going to turn up and ruin a spot!
@@adventurefishingukI did once when it was full and I was a bit nervous though as I didn't know whether I was allowed 😅 Trout were jumping all over it but I blanked,only fished it for about 30 mins though,there is two big reservoirs close to that one 👍🏻🤫
@@samdunn2077 obvs. But a lifetime of fishing has taught me that being comfortable and dry in the worst weather really does matter. Long waterproof jacket over overtrousers or thigh waders is the way to go. Mine are all tweed, BTW.
Haha it is tempting, but I have to admit I am rather fond of the trackie look. I'm no expert fisherman after all, just a bloke with a few travel rods that likes to explore 😂

Don’t forget Bing Maps, usually better detail on the aerial view plus it has ordnance survey view which helps find footpaths etc.

Don't forget your bear spray in the english badlands.
