- johnny goes chub fishing ,this is a old old video from betamax/vhs days ,john wilson fishes for pike in the time honoured ways .notice the lack of product placing or brand names .just good old tackle and skills
fishing as it should be pure and simple, no big tackle names just fishing. watched his videos in the 1980,s
Xmas getting his pike video where he has his boat on top of his lada was one of the best I ever had
Wow there is not a lot of videos of the great Richard Walker surely one of our most innovative anglers. RIP John Wilson and Richard Walker.
Wonderful to see fishing like I remember it. Simpler less stressful times in life and fishing.
Aye, none of the commercial lake nonsense with JW videos.
I'm not into fishing but I remember watching this just for his self narrative, he had me in stitches sometimes, his commetry was what made him a legend...RIP JOHN.
RIP John your programs brought us back to a time when life was more simple no social media reality tv etc Your programme made me take up fishing 👍👍👍
I tried wobbling for pike once after watching John Wilsons pike episode in the 80's I think it was. I wobbled right off the bloody dam wall into the water.
I hope you had a float attached to your tackle... 🙄😳😅
I never knew he'd passed on he was a excellent angler and taught us all who watched him how we should fish rip 🙏 old freind god bless
Sad loss . John Wilson did much good for country matters and angling . Our rivers are coming alive thanks to anglers .
He certainly did. There are several YT channels featuring people fishing in London's docks, canals and Thames feeder rivers. Quite a contrast to piking on the Broads in winter but the big plus is the fish are now there and thriving.
Wow, you're uploads are just the thing I was looking for!! Proper,old, brand name free films full of atmosphere and lovely old tackle.. Thanks!!!
John Wilson - Go Fishing whilst fucking wasted!! :D
the god father of fishing
R.I.P JOHN
Legend - RIP John
Rip John ..the legend ...the (goat)
And Dick
43lb pike stuffed ....,like are you pissed ! I've caught ten pound pike with bigger heads ?
Elitekiller72 agree with that!
The head gets bigger as they get older. A bit like you!
bad taxidermist, its dried out and shrunk
The man speaking is Richard Walker one of England's greatest anglers i doubt if he's lying .
Yeah the head was tiny. Looked like a 6-8lb size
RIP John your programs got me into pike 💯🐊🐊🐊🐊
one of the first of his many videos i watched true inspiration to any angler such a sad loss what a super fish. night god bless john wilson true gent
DO YOU HAVE ANY MORE EARLY JOHN WILSON,THEY ARE PROPER FISHING SHOWS,IF YOU DO COULD YOU UPLOAD THEM,MANY THANKS MATT.
That stuffed pikes head was never a 43lber
Didnt look half big enough
2 of the UK’S greatest and most inspirational anglers, Dick Walker and John Wilson. RIP both of them.
Wobbling a dead bait is a very productive method, I put an oval piece of lead folded above the trace , this will stop the line twisting problem you get with wobbling 😂 and taking Whiskey fishing doesn’t help either!😂
It was much his humour and wonderful observation of everything around him, that made John a legend among tv presenters.
Goodbye John Legend from my childhood
I think this,if memory serves my right, from the first ever go fishing series.
Jack walker ,used to read his column in a.t. Every week ,wonderful man not many like him these days.
Or even Richard Walker
Dick Walker wow what a legend
JW, to this watcher all those years ago, sheer unadulterated, simple pleasures.
Good man john
Wow! I grew up watching Go Fishing with JW but I'm seeing this stuff for the first time. Thanks for uploading!
yes it it is Dick Walker love this vid fishing at its best
What a legend!
Fantastic that he uses a rowboat. These days would probably wear a lifejacket though
Cant beat the early JW series. I like in Norwich and fish the Broads a lot and they are sadly nothing like they use to be
No one wore a life jacket on the broads back then, we just didn't even think we would fall in.
Who the hell writing these sub titles ? They must of had a few to many 🤣
John must have been a good swimmer.
🙏 RIP sir.
I could sit and just listen to him for days. Parts of this is pure comedy and makes me laugh!
Rod father
Got this bought for me in the 80s for Christmas loved a bit of John
Braided elasticum!!! Brilliant..... Those were the days.... Nothing sophisticated to catch plenty of pike back then
Dick Walker et al said that in order to catch decent sized fish you need to: find them (location), don't scare them, fish at the right time, with the right tackle and with the right bait. A lot of people have made fishing seem far more complicated that it really is, and made a lot of money in the process.
Am I wrong or is that Dick Walker at the beginning?? if so, nice.
Wilson your always eating
great man...r.i.p john
Proper angler 👍
Happier times
Am I wrong or is that Dick Walker at the beginning?? if so, nice.
I think you're right - I remember as a kid reading something he said about using big worms to catch big chub, not nasty little maggots ;-)
jw maybe the best ever.
The goat
I'll always remember watching the first John Wilson goes fishing programme. There'd been nothing on TV since the lovely Jack Hargreaves. John started it all didn't he. His first series spawned (pun intended) all the videos and DVDs etc that have come since.
A Legend yes, but I always thought if there'd ever been a real Mr Crabtree he'd have been John Wilson.
Tight lines John...
No life jacket John? Tut tut!
do me a fav.health and safety gone mad, you should be a copper
Long before the nanny state and snowflakes... if you fell in you swam!!
No one bothered back then. But we all knew our limits and didn't take chances.
