Haha, thanks!
@@fishingtutorials NP thanks for the reply guys tight lines
By a mile
Back angling for the first time in 30yrs. This channel is absolute platinum, thank you so much!
Ah that's amazing, happy for you :) You're so welcome. All the best with it.
I grew up fishing small ponds and streams in Texas. In my teens and 20s I got in to big lakes, big fish, tournaments, etc... now in my 40s I love nothing more than small ponds and streams!
That is awesome, nothing beats this sort of fishing!
I am almost 50 , fishing at least for 35 years and your videos are ALWAYS usefull so keep on 👍😉
Thank you so much! Great to hear :)
I’m nearly 47, caught my first fish at 7 lol, I’m here,,I find it quit therapeutic lol
I love stream fishing. In Hungary my grandparents have a stream in their garden! It’s where I caught my first fish and I still do float fishing there! This summer I caught a decent chub but there are monster perch in there and they are what I try to target! Gudgeon are also common.
sorry to be off topic but does anyone know a trick to get back into an instagram account?
I was dumb forgot my password. I love any assistance you can give me!
@Grant Brandon instablaster ;)
@Nicholas Titan I really appreciate your reply. I found the site on google and im trying it out atm.
Takes quite some time so I will get back to you later when my account password hopefully is recovered.
Best channel for tips on UA-cam right now
Thanks Krysh!
All your videos are really helpful
Glad you found them useful! :)
I’ve learnt so much from Carl and Alex, cheers lads can’t wait for more videos 😊
Great to hear, more coming most Saturday!
This is going to be before pretty much all of you. My grandfather gave ma book called “fishing with mr Crabtree”. It was a black and white graphic book about this old guy teaching this kid to fish!, I still pick it up and read it, very dated, very obvious, but it’s an absolut joy, it’s a comfort read.
What I’m saying is that, sometimes I find these vids like a little comfort read.
So Carl (or Alex) I can never remember (apologies) your like the modern day mr Crabtree! And absolutely nobody can knock that! I’m sure this fictitious character “MrCrabtree”doffs his tweed cap, nods, eye contact for a second, then he turns, picks up his cane rod, and wonders into the mist and the shadow of a twisty little river in amongst the long frost covered grass, whispering something about chub…..
Ah wow. Cheers Geoff - that's amazing to hear. Yes that book means so much for so many. Yes, can see how it would hold so much comfort, and joy reading it again. So glad you get a similar feeling here :)
I caught 6lb chub a 3lb Perch a 15lb carp and a 25lb pike and also one of my friends caught an 8lb chub !!! from my local river I could almost jump across very underrated locations
Here is the USA I caught a 17 inch (43 cm) smallmouth bass from a small stream. Granted, it was a bit larger than the stream you are describing but it was still quite small. Unfortunately, I am bad at describing things, so if you want to look it up it was the Pigeon River in Lagrange County, Indiana
Wow, good work Thomas! :)
@@fishingtutorials thanks and you :)
i love this kind of fishing in small rivers
greets from Germany :) love your vids❤️
Brilliant episode Carl really good for everyone to watch 👍 keep it coming .
Thanks Trevor! More coming soon!
Great vid guys,I’m so glad about this 👍👍
Glad you enjoyed it!
My son and I are planning a fishing trip on our local river at the weekend and this video has given me some great ideas. I love watching your videos: they are superb. All the best and thank you for your great work.
Thanks so much, glad to hear it :) Hope you both had a great session!
Great video thanks guys, lucky enough to have the river trent and river dove near us so these tips will be invaluable, thank you! :)
Excellent ive learnt so much because you are so informative and will be watching rest of the vids rock on.
So glad you posted this. Exactly what i was looking for!👌
Glad we could help! Best of luck with your fishing!
@@fishingtutorials thanks guys, means a lot. Hoping for one today!
Thank you for the tips. I will definitely apply this advice when tackling my local spots.
Great, best of luck with it!
Thanks fellas, excellent as always. I invested in a TF Gear Matt Hayes allrounder rod a few years back for my local small rivers, can adjust from 13ft down to 11ft length by removing a small piece at the butt end and it has separate top sections for float fishing and quivertip. Used to have to carry 3 rods to cover them, do it all on the one now (Apart from one of the venues that has Big Barbel which I have my faithful Harefield Tackle hand built special for)
Another vote for that rod; I use it on my local river river for chub, barbel and carp and it handles them really well; and not expensive either...
I love how u make high quality videos on tutorials, same as on main channel, love your passion! Come to Lithuania some day, to try to catch your biggest tench ( our national fish ) :)
Thanks, glad you like the videos! We'll have to try for a huge Lithuanian tench one day! Best of luck with your fishing!

@@fishingtutorials thanks!
Great video really informational and inspiring even in the cold 🥶 ...
Any ideas when next carl and alex video will be
Next video will be coming this Saturday! :)
Nother great vidio boys
Cheers William!
As the river season has finished, I've moved on to the canal. A guide to canal fishing would be great. Would also appreciate a guide to jigging if you find the time!
Any plans for a video on big rivers or weirs? great video as usual!
That’s going to help thanks
Good luck mate! :)
@@fishingtutorials thanks I will need it
It is very helpful video
Glad to hear that, more tutorials coming soon!
That is great thanks
and i caught a pike from the river you are fishing next to tight lines
Ever tried a big rucksack when travelling along rivers? I like this a lot, i even get a small cooling-box into it for drinks and, if you plan to eat fish, to put fish into it. You can put rods and even a net in the side straps which is perfect because you can get it out with one hand when you catched a fish.
Sounds good! I'll look into that. Cheers and best of luck with your fishing!
Love from India 🇮🇳♥️
Big love! ♥️
You may need some of these
This was really helpful as I'm supposedly visiting a small river for chub or just anything I can get really. Keep up these amazing step by step tutorials!
cheesepaste has been king for Chub on small rivers for me this winter! Good luck
willsy, thank you, maybe I'll try that!
@@carpadventures8052 Big Up on the cheespaste, made some for the first time a couple of weeks back, used the next morning and had a decent chub out within an hour, well pleased.
Glad it was helpful! Best of luck with your small stream fishing!
I love fishing for chub and pike in small river near me i fish there a lot in summer bicos peapole don't fish there so there are always big chub and pikes. And sometimes when im with frends there we fry a fish or two and eat it.
What works great is just make a dough from only flower... it sticks good and you can ad coloring or even taste.
You can put it on the hook like a magget
Nice vidio
Cheers Arkas!
yay
Watching carl trying to explain fishing terms like crease,slacks etc just makes me laugh 😂
To become the right depth i use Lotblei (its germand and i don't know the english word) its a weight which you put on your hook.
We call them a plummet
@@RichardEnglander thanks
Awesome video guys. Can you do one on knots?
We have a knot playlist with a few quick videos about our most used knots. We'll try to make more knot tutorials soon. Best of luck with your fishing!
Amazing video guys i am gunna fish Ishtar now 🙂
Good luck!
@@fishingtutorials omg u comment big fan but thanks 😀
Spooky! fished the river Lea by the Bull pub in Wheathampstead yesterday and it pops up in your video.
Gray vid guys thank you for keeping me going though lockdown 👍👍
Cheers for watching Harry! :)
@@fishingtutorials but I can’t not they are the best vids in the world can’t wait for the pond build on the main channel 👍👍👍😀
What gram lure rod would you recommend for stalking small overgrown rivers with the possibility of a 4-5pb chub
🔥🔥
The sad thing is there is no coarse fish in Scottish streams only trout but that is still alright , but it still would be good if there was like barbel chub and ect in Scottish rivers
That's a shame you don't have barbel and chub up in Scotland, at least you have some beautiful scenery up there! I love visiting Scotland! Best of luck with your fishing!
i love river fishing a spot i know has monster perch
There are no coarse fish in my local rivers, will these techniques work for trout and grayling?
when i do my nots i dont moisten them down and they go down fine but not all the time sometimes they do them few kinks in your line when pulling tight so i just re do it but even when i do moisten my nots as my dad says to try it it still does damage to my line sometimes, any idea on what could be causing this?
I try to fish the river Ouzel in Milton Keynes, it’s an awful river deep and shallow, fast and slow but the predominant feature is the weed, it’s atrocious. In a length of say 1 mike you are lucky to find a spot to fish. I have caught some nice (small ) fish. Have you any tips for fishing this type of river.
Please do a trip to Ireland i am from there it would make my year and a good video about how to fish it 🙁
We'll try to visit Ireland for some fishing one day! :)
@@fishingtutorials thanks and I know it’s harder than it sounds
Free line maggot or worm 👌
Do you have any good fishing rivers or streams near west Sussex
Can you recommend any spots like this in Epsom, Surry. We are having trouble finding any?
I'm afraid we don't know our way round Epsom way. Have a good look on google maps though, also check out your local fishing clubs. Best of luck with it.
Stop giving all the secrets away 😂
Haha sorry 😂
A Few of angler will do it.
It’s not the magic circle 🤣
6:50 Hey guys, where did you find those small waterproof boxes?
Plz reply yours are my favourite youtubers I'm a fisherman to
Thanks Cheryl!
Great vid, how would you go about catching small brown trout in streams?
Just float fish maggots... seems to work the best and you have less of a chance of deep hooking. Remember the brown trout is currently out of season until about March time. Good luck 👍🏻
I often use a tiny Mepps spinner! Maybe a Mepps no. 1. Good luck!
@@fishingtutorials thanks
Hello Carl and Alex, big fan! I have a question, maybe you can provide some insight, having more experience.
I have a small stream near where I live, which starts out of natural springs in the forest and runs down about 20km, ending in a small river. It's not really fished a lot, since people haven't got good bites and it is also a bit hard to access. I've tried about a 4km stretch of the stream several times, but never even had a bite.
Is there a chance that no fish live in the stream at all, since it doesn't have a lake that it's coming from? Would the place where the stream and the river meet up be a good spot? It's quite fast flowing down there, and wide.
Known fish in the river are perch, roach, pike, burbot, bream and zander, all regular river fish, but none of those have been reported in the stream. Would they have a reason to swim up the smaller stream rather than stay in the river?
Sorry for the long text, and thank you for your videos!

We miss you dude..
