Hey Matt, I tried Sandmartin for the first time ever last week, had not much confidence, didn’t hold much hope, but had 25lb mirror at lunch time, then as I was packing up at 7:50pm left rod blasted off, it felt massive!!!!!! But snapped me of in around 3 seconds. Gutted!! Anyway to catch on my first session, and a 25 pounder, absolutely made up! Good luck and tight lines mate
Hello Matt, I know the feeling, when i first went there. Its a good size lake and not that many features in the water except the margins, Well done on your Mirror and shame you lost that chunk but clearly your tactics were working just fine so a massive confidence boost for you now. Keep up the good work Matt Mattius regard Matt :-)
Maff T UK cheers pal, it was only a day ticket too, so really didn’t hold a lot of hope! Have been back there today to try n get the biggun, but blanked!! Cheers for the compliments. What reels and lines are you using here mate and are you back leading? You local to Bluebell? Wouldn’t mind doing a session some time if you’re up for it? Matt
Hi Matt, seems like those were three nice days in nature, in despite of not catching any carp. I heard that those native American flutes are very good to attract fish. Just kidding you of course. Anyway, as always, I enjoyed your video. ATB Dimitri
Yes I saw the carp Maff lol. We blanked last week on a 7 acre estate lake with possibly only 20 resident carp that seldom show themselves. Tough going with no night fishing allowed but a glorious location. The FishSpy looks great. Will have to look in to that Maff :)
20 Res carp on 7 acre's your sure going to earn one of those out of the water, but that's the whole point isn't it I guess. The fish spy is good but does have its limits and can be a bit touchy. but when its working fine you can edge your bets. tight lines Paul, regards Matt
hiya mate really engjoy your videos really gets me thinking and learning and also would love to see alone bait video of you making spod mixes or somthing with the others because you go into depth tmwith things i think it woukd be a great video carnt wait for the next one tight lines

Hi Matt, where did you get your waders? I’m struggling to find some due to crazy sizes as I’m a big guy.
Great Watch👍
Thanks Darren got a few days booked in on swan lake soon and really looking forward to it, glad you liked the video :-) regards Matt
nice vid my parents just got me a head camera and gonna order a mic for it but just gonna see what the audio is like without a mic (the mic which is built in)
I wish the camera I bought had an external mic capability always better for windy filming, thanks for commenting Liam, regards Maff
at least you can check out the bottom of the lake with the fish spy!
Yep no carp though just, well, really really nice lake bed! LOL
your bit with the fishspy 👍
