Beautiful channel, one of my favorites. I feel the beauty of fishing in a similar way and I try to follow these films as an example. It's truly something beautiful and my sincere congratulations.
This video felt like a cowboy hunting. It’s a very stable, movie-like atmosphere, so it feels like healing. A great video is like a gift. Thank you for your hard work. I hope you win.
Beautiful. The only fishing-related production I watch on UA-cam, barring another channel which is really nothing like Fallon's. In terms of actual 'films', then Nick FC is the heir to Stan Bréhaut, who filmed Jack Hargreaves' films. So little is made any more, in both literature or media, that actually captures the England that I know. I work so damned hard these days, it's nice to watch something like this when I get a spare few moments; it helps me scheme, and dream about my next adventure.
Nice work, really beautiful script, filming, the whole shebang. Never been to the UK, but here in Oz, by osmosis, it crept in via coarse fishing mags in the sixties that inexplicably found their way into the local post office. Tinca were reputed to be in the creek, but I never caught one. Loved the music with some echos of Eno, The Big Ship in the final score that capped it off beautifully. Many thanks.
great! thank you very much. I also caught some tench at my quiet lake here. surprised to see the same feeling in this video, and at Dungeness , where I went for a school trip from Dover. We saw a huge pike that day, just sitting under a bridge in the shallow river. Jees, what has the world become...
Excellent little piece and the music composed was superb. Moody bass lines, I assume a double bass. Maybe another video, set on river with a good chub angler, stalking using splitcane would be great.
Perhaps you are missing the point. Films like this one may appear pretentious or slightly affected, but they are trying to capture the essence of what angling is really about for some of us. Being in touch with the landscape in beautiful and relatively wild places. Catching the odd good fish in challenging circumstances and inclement weather can be enough. Angling is as much about the places and the wildlife, as it is about fish. Catching fish every time we go is not essential, just so long as the fish are still there, the waters are beautiful and unspoiled and we are left in relative peace. Commercial waters are mostly dreadful, soulless places, but even club waters are now becoming unpleasant places to be. Too many silly rules and restrictions on methods and baits. Too tidy and artificial.looking. Unnatural, with carp stocked at huge weights, alien species (ide, wels, sturgeon, F1 hybrids) oxygen pumps (due to overstocking) etc I don't own any cane rods and I usually only wear my silly hat for work to avoid sunstroke, rather than when fishing. I definitely don't want to watch videos with paid anglers endorsing the products of the company that employs them, telling us how to 'bag up' so that we can impress other anglers on Instagram or Facebook. I go fishing for escapism and catching fish is only a small part of that. I accept that I am in the minority and that modern angling 'journalism' (I use the term in its broadest sense) is mostly moronic. It is good to know that there are at least a few other people out there who see angling in a similar way to myself.
Mean, moody and magnificent. Another stunning little film.
Perfect antidote to today’s fast pace of life!!Thank you boys!!

Great little film , poetically captures the Dungeness magic.
So stark and beautiful, like Dungeness. Fantastic music.

What a?fantastic little film, always loved dungeness. It has a raw beauty.
❤ beautiful film, showing the peace and tranquility of angling.

Another wonderfully enjoyable video! 👏👏😊
Thank you! Cheers!
That Tench scrap, with it's elegant ripples, magic.
Excellent little piece and the music composed was superb. Moody bass lines, I assume a double bass. Maybe another video, set on river with a good chub angler, stalking using splitcane would be great.
Expertly executed, I’ve always associated Dungeness with sea fishing. Nice touch splitcane rod with a Centrepin , classic Mr Crabtree style.
Could have called it " A shingle Tench"
Find it boring...like most fallons stuff, looks ok looking for what you want but it's for the split cane silly hat fraternity...not for me.
Perhaps you are missing the point.
