Is it a day ticket lake ?
Hi Raymond - yes, you can fish a day ticket. There are two lakes and both can be fished as a day ticket. It’s a great venue. Thanks for watching and commenting 👍🏻🎣🎣
You can call Neil or Maggie on 01570 471081
What a lovely bunch of blokes i could watch you all day
Thanks for watching Chris! 👍🏻🎣
Hello fellers , I’m met these guys on that session at willow bank , proper gents & they helped me a lot . Thanks again fellers
Thanks Lee - it was great to meet you mate and great to see you do well. 👍🏻🎣🎣
Wouldn't fish this place their are carp in their stolen from other lakes the owner John is up his own arse and is such a tiny place not proppa fishing just under throw up ur rod
We can’t comment on the stock but we have found John to be nothing but helpful and friendly. It is very much a proper lake and we have enjoyed our visits. It can be a tough fish but has been very enjoyable. We highly recommend this lake. Thanks for watching and commenting. 👍🏻🎣🎣
Shame. That the owner John is a nob jockey
Enjoyed watching that lads! Congrats on the PB, done well there, the regulars call it "willow blank"! 👀 That bait you were using.....is that the one where those two odd brothers started making it and have a weird obssession over the cross breeding of rhinos and pigs? 😉
Thanks! Alex did incredibly well! The shock was evident on his face - ‘SHUT UP!’ 😂 Ian was using Parker Baits, yes. He caught all 9 carp on OG Fish - cracking bait. Alex was using a mix of bait and caught a few on OG fish too. ‘Willow Blank’ surely not? Thanks for watching and commenting! 👍🏻🎣🎣
Enjoyde watching this video,some stunning carp caught, are you chaps on a diet these days !! Ì didnt see one kebab or a takeaway on the bank !!!
Thanks Robert! There are some lovely carp in Willow Bank. There may have been some takeaways on this trip… 😊
I don’t know what you mean, Robert… 🤷🏻♂️ We’re always on diets… 😉 Thanks for watching buddy… 🎣🎣👍🏻
Would love to see you guys down carephilly castle
Hi Karl - yeah, that would be great. Do you need to be a member to fish the castle? Thanks for watching and commenting! 🎣👍🏻
@@WelshCarpers I think you have to join at the local tackle shop I’ve seen a few videos from there but only English people fishing would be brilliant to see some Welsh men fishing it I’d absolutely love to fish it myself hopefully I get the chance
@@karltaft3020I’ll make some enquiries, Karl… 🎣🎣👍🏻
@@Ian-WelshCarpers my mate and me would love to join on the quest also try arrow medow in the midlands for a day ticket/lake exclusive
@@karltaft3020 thanks buddy, I’ll check that out. 🎣🎣
Cracking vid and great head of fish! Keep it up lads🎣
Thanks Brodie! 🎣🎣
If you roll the nets down more when you carry the fish Rather then them hanging down when you carry them over to the net
Agreed and noted for the next trip - although only applies to a couple of the lands. It’s worth noting that we landed over 50 fish between us during the session and were jumping between swims to help each other. Also the water level was low at the lake, making the reach tricky, and made rolling the 50” landing nets difficult, especially in the areas where bushes and grass were in the way, and particularly in the dark. We had some great fish out didn’t we? Especially Alex - his 33lb PB was amazing! Thank you for watching and commenting.
Excellent video , well done both ATB Matty 👍
Thanks Matt!
@@WelshCarpers well done all tried to comment on separate but had to comment on this one 👍
@TymsCarpTv thanks buddy! 👍🏻
Hey guys it’s a long shot but can’t find anything on swim 1 has anyone fished there and got any tips as I’ve heard a few people not catch there over 24hrs
Hi buddy - we've not fished swim 1 but there were a couple of lads on swim 1 when we fished 3, they got a few fish out - one was over 20lbs. Keep at it and hopefully you'll catch...
@@WelshCarpers thanks for the reply 2 of my mates been and didn’t catch over 24hrs I’m looking to give it a go soon
Brilliant! Just bought one of these after loving the Ridge Monkey in the campervan but finding it too small for home use. I felt the pans should come apart but couldn’t see how. The little pin is black on mine and I couldn’t see it until I knew what I was looking for. Thanks very much for the detailed video.
Great! The pin caught me out but once you know where it is and what it’s for, it makes sense. Thanks for watching and commenting.
Hi, I have made your version of the boat stand but not sure where to get the feet like yours, could help me with this please? Thank you!
Hi Joy - thanks for watching! I used these feet off Amazon - www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B00QKI1HT4/ref=ppx_od_dt_b_asin_title_s00?ie=UTF8&th=1 I hope that helps, Ian.
Where was the bucket of water over the head for catching your PB !!!
😂 it was a bit cold. 🥶⛄️
@Ian-WelshCarpers maybe 2 buckets for the next PB then.
@@roberthughes8428 😆😆😬
Great video guys and perfectly timed. I was just looking at this exact fishery for the next trip so great to get a view of the fishery and quality of their stock. Subscribed as well look forward to seeing more from you and maybe see you on the banks at Bells some time 🤜
Thanks Sam, glad the video was helpful. We like Bells a lot, the fish we have caught have been in excellent condition and all lovely fish. Would be great to catch you on the bank... 😃
@@Ian-WelshCarpers Was just watching your March video as well glad you broke your blank on that session mate. That March session looked brutal on the nights not gonna lie 🤣
@@samtaylor8612 Thanks mate - it was VERY cold! I also snapped the rod tip off on one rod, so it was a bit of a disastrous session for me. Alex did really well though, espectially in those conditions. Hope you have a great session buddy...
Love the diet and carbo loading!!. When will you be fishing linear fisheries as the salads ans sushi are excellent,
😂 we have figures to maintain! Linear Fisheries is on our list of fisheries to visit. We like a good salad but draw the line at sushi!
@Ian-WelshCarpers HA HA weight watchers should sponsor your channel
😂
I’ll be down on this lake on the 1st of next month any tips on what works best it’s my first time there (rigs bait pva mesh or solid)
Hey buddy, thanks for watching and commenting. The far margin did well for us and also the left margin. I was fishing to the right so I was in open water mostly and I did alright. I cast as far as I could into the middle without catching the tree. We used Parker baits pellet in PVA bags with Parker wafters (OG nut) and Parker boilies (OG nut and fish). I used the fish/nut sauce in the bag as well. This time of year they’re feeding a bit more so I would try bigger baits and bigger pellets. All the best buddy - hope you do well. Enjoy it is a nice little swim… 👍🏻🎣
@@WelshCarpers thanks for the reply and thanks for the help

I saw the camera man in the car park as I was leaving and said hello. I was waiting for the video as i saw the body cam. Well done lads. Looks like you had a decent session 🎣
I remember Nathan - good to see you mate. Yes, we had a great session! How did you do?
@@Ian-WelshCarpers not so good for me unfortunately. I had a good run last year catching at least 1 fish in 5 out of 6 sessions. I can only do 24 hours at a time. But I’ve had 3 fish within 24 hours before. I’ve managed to get 2 x 24 hours in so far this year and blanked on both occasions. Still plenty of time left this year.
@@nathanpowell1545 Keep at it mate!
Well done guys always enjoy watching your videos,and great stuff ian on your beasty fish 👌,,ATB Matty 👍
Thanks Matt!
Squid orange with robin red’s are my go too on the horseshoe, though I’ve only ever fishing 2,3&4!

Thank you, Tyrrell! Enjoy Tri-Nant it’s a great venue for day fishing. Tight lines buddy.
Hey mate been there a few times myself tried a lot of things down there but corn in the margins is what I had most success with
Thanks for putting up the video. I've been thinking of fishing this place for a while now. I have a mate in Tregarron who's already fished it and I'm only in mid Wales, so I may go soon.
Thanks Matthew. It's a great lake, as you can see. We love it. Go and fish it. 😊 Thanks for watching and commenting - tight lines! 🎣
Great job Ian, ATB Matty 😊
Thanks Matt 👍🏻
Hello. What make is the bag with your rod pod in pal.?
Hi buddy - the rod pod is the 'Saber Terrain X + Pod 2 / 3 Rod Pod Lightweight Adjustable Carp Fishing Buzz Bar' and I've used the bag that came with my 'Solar Tackle - TT Compact Adjustable Ground Pod'. I'm not sure if you can buy the bag separately, or if you can get the rod pod anymore.
Cheers
I had that PB fish out the Monday before you guys. Obviously didn’t learn his lesson 😂
No way! 😂😂
Nice one Michael. Thanks for watching.
Loads of great content lads. Looked like a great trip. Loved the fat Welsh carpers merch. 😂
😂😂😘
We missed you butt…
Maybe zero the scales with the sling 😂😂
The scales were zeroed with the sling - when these Fox digital scales are flashing they are zeroed.
Hi Colin - unlike other digital scales, the Fox ones don’t show the sling weight (-2.9, for example). You turn on the scales, add the sling and then hit the zero button. When the scales are flashing 0.0 they are zeroed and ready. All the fish weighed in this video have been properly weighed with the sling weight deducted, including Matt’s PB carp. Thanks for watching.
I had the PB fish out the week before and had it a little heavier than 20lb 10oz so you definitely weighed it correctly. Good angling lads.
Hi lads. I found your channel by accident. I've subbed to you guys. I'm a carp fisherman myself well when I catch them.haha. I've been to Tri Nant a couple of times looking to get back there soon as the weather is getting milder. Some great content guys
Thank you! We love TriNant, we’ve had so much fun there and fished it in all conditions! Hopefully we’ll see you on the bank some time! Thanks for watching and the sub! Tight lines! 🎣
At about 320 watts of output it's not bad the trouble is your using it to heat a glorified umbrella. An insulated bivvy would be a great idear.
The candles are shite. Give out very little heat
They're not as hot as a gas heater, nowhere near - but it's about keeping anglers safe. Gas heaters are deadly! It isn't about turning your bivvy into a sauna, it's about raising the temperature in extremely cold conditions, safely. They felt hot enough when testing in my shed; enough to warm my hands. Thanks for watching. Tight lines.
@@WelshCarpers at what temperature? They’ll make no difference what so ever bellow 0. I never mentioned anything about a gas heater. I use a diesel heater. Far better than candles which I have tryed in the past and done nothing. A fancy case for them isn’t going to make any difference
@@Bryan-j9m2j No but there are anglers who do use gas heaters. Diesel heaters are expensive and loud, and require power and diesel - most of them are heavy and quite big. I've used tea light heaters before and felt the benefit in cold temperatures. The case is irrelevant, these heaters are available in black and stainless steel. A 5 season sleeping bag and a hot water bottle is enough normally, but a tea light heater will definitely take the chill out of the bivvy. This tea light heater is small enough to pack in with my gear without being a burden. Thanks for watching. Tight lines.
@@WelshCarpers I got my diesel heater for less than £100 that’s including the battery. Not that expensive. Peanuts compared to what most carp anglers spend on their set ups
Wow that looks amazing. Guess what I'll be getting for fathers day😂
Don’t waist your money. If your cold through the winter get a diesel heater.
Your welcome thanks for the content and hopefully will catch you on the bank some time
When you two down there next great video by the way
Thanks! We were thinking of a session on a weekend soon! Thanks for watching! 🎣
Random! I’ve been watching you Cefn Mably videos as I’m doing a solo 48 hours there in May, next new video to pop up is a Bells Mill fishery just 5 mins from my house. Keep up the great videos!
Thanks for your comment! Cefn Mably is a great venue - we’re hoping to fish the Lodge Lake at some point, it’s just down the road from us. Bells Mill was amazing though - fantastic fishery! Thanks for watching and commenting. Much appreciated. Tight lines! Have a great session in May. 🎣
What baits did you find worked there anything in particular
@@richardclarke4405hi buddy - my bait was like a repellant! 😂 Alex and Dean had success with Parker Baits wafters and Parker pellets in solid bags. Tight lines buddy and thanks for watching… 👍🏻
Where did you get the spike for the light
I can’t remember what bank sticks these are but if you search eBay or your local tackle shop for ‘bank stick’ you’ll see various types available. You’ll also need a grub screw to connect the light to the bank stick. Thanks for watching! Tight lines! 🎣
Absolutely love your videos lads. 👍👍👍
Well done lads great content
nice vid ian,,ATB Matty :)
For the record... lost 3lbs... 😃
lol alex snoring ,72 hours out still fun, doing what you both enjoy,well done lads ,ATB Matty
Real footage too, Matt. He keeps that up for 8 hours straight! 😂
Good session lads, friendly advice did you zero the scales after the sling
Thanks Liam! We haven't been to this lake for a while so it was nice to get there for a day session. We just wanted a rough idea of the weight of these - the sling was dry - so they definitely were not accurate readings. The Fox scales remember the sling weight and they were zeroed, but yes, for these small carp we weren't too bothered about accurate weights. Thanks for watching. Tight lines, Ian.
typical welsh match lake
well done boys ,fun day indeed, ATB Matty
Can anyone confirm that this scale has a hold function? This is not mentioned and cannot be seen in videos. related question, does the hold function work quickly enough when you weigh a fish with both hands (without 3 legs)? Please let us know, thx!
Hi, thanks for watching our video and for your question. I'm not sure what you mean by a 'hold' function, but I have used these scales for a while now and they have been excellent, I'm happy to recommend them. If you use them as demonstrated in the video there is plenty of time to zero the scales, place the fish in your sling and then take your fish, in the sling, to weigh on the scales. The scales can be used with or without a tripod. I hope this answers your question. Ian.
@@WelshCarpers What I mean by the hold function: if you hang the sling on the weigher and once the scale indicates the correct weight, the weight remains on the display, even after removing the weighing sling. My scale now gives a signal and "hold" appears on the display along with the correct weight. So you can take off the sling and check again how much the weight was. If I switch the scale off and on again, the last measured weight appears a few seconds before it returns to zero. My scale now has 2 negative points. First of all, the batteries die, even if I don't use them. Secondly, the hold function does not work properly. When I weigh a fish from my hands, the weight keeps fluctuating. I have to use a tripod to see the final weight. I want to buy the Fox Digital Scale but wanted to be sure that it has the 'hold function'. And that it indicates the final weight sufficiently quickly, even when weighing without a tripod.
@@frederikvanlerberghe7327 OK, thank you, I understand what you mean. Let me check that for you tomorrow and I will let you know. It doesn't have a 'hold' button but I will test the behaviour for you and post an update tomorrow.
@@frederikvanlerberghe7327 I have just tested the scales and I cannot see a way to 'hold' the weight - I tried a few button combinations but nothing worked. As soon as you remove the weight from the scales it goes to zero. Here is the PDF manual for these scales - there is no mention of a hold function: foxcdn.blob.core.windows.net/fox-media/16313/cei155-fox-digital-scales-instruction-manuals-2022.pdf I don't know of scales that have this function so I am unable to recommend any. Let us know if you find suitable scales. Take care; tight lines, Ian
I misread the title at first 😂 Batman Actor Plus 😂
😆😆😆
Good on Alex for ruffing it in a tent lol 😆 ,looks like you all still had fun, plenty of good catches, top vid 👍.ATB Matty
Thanks Matty - he's hardcore!! That super, giant spoon he used has got to be cheating though... 😂
Why not the avid one ?
Hi, Thanks for your comment. I liked the look of the Fox bag and got a good deal on it when it was released. It had the right dimensions to fit in my rucksack so I decided to give it a go. It has proved to be extremely useful and helped me manage my set up better. I have got several Avid products and what I do have I like. I guess it could have easily been the Avid gadget bag but I decided to go with the Fox bag. Ian.
Nice video. Please can you let me know how long they stay zeroed for? Do you have enough time to get the fish back into the sling before they turn off?
Hi! I have never had a problem with the scales turning off after zeroing. I've had plenty of time to get the fish into the sling and get ready to go back to the scales. I'm not sure how long they stay zeroed but I have always been able to weigh the fish without any issues. I happily recommend these scales. I hope that helps and thank you for watching and commenting. Ian.
@@WelshCarpers Thank you for the reply Ian. Tight lines
