@@fishwithcarlhi Carl my son is obsessed with fishing and your his favourite UA-camr , you’ve inspired him to make his own UA-cam channel with his best mate which has taken great amount of courage with him being autistic, was wondering if you have any tips at all ?? And if you could potentially help bring a few eyes onto his channel thanks for your time
@@fishwithcarlhey do UA-cam take any cut by donating like this? I’d love to give a little back for all the years of entertainment and knowledge you’ve provided me but I’m happy to send to a PayPal if UA-cam take a %
@@Matt-em9bd UA-cam take a cut! With ad revenue it’s about 45% and with donations it’s 30%. Partly I’m not happy with that, but they do also host all my videos allow me to manage my channel, interact with comments and stream them from anywhere in the world! Which to be honest is a great service. Haha
I think I’ve said this multiple times but the best part of this channel is just how open, honest and genuine you are. There’s no BS, no gimmicks, just you, your friends, family and your own struggle and successes. Incredible as always mate. You inspire me and many others a little more with each video
The videos are TV quality and the honesty is brilliant But the best bit was the kid saying "This is the highlight of my summer holidays" Please take notice of that. You are changing kids lives and that's awesome Including my 8 year old daughter . Well done for being a brilliant role model
Honestly, this film is on another level in so many ways; the music throughout is just spot on, the emotion and way you convey the potential dangers of obsession, the whole dam thing.....brilliant, just brilliant and well worth the wait!
Just another straight up masterpiece of a film Carl. Honestly the journey you manage to take us on is just so special. The work rate and dedication so admirable. Look after yourself and I hope today you also have the warm feeling of pride to go with releasing this film to us lucky viewers. Amazing.
I’ve watched this video twice now and this video is one of if not the best on UA-cam. It shows what fishing is actually like. Boilies tipping over on the barrow, casts not hitting the clip. The content is brilliant buddy, crazy you and Scott caught each others target. Congratulations Carl 10/10 video
This is the rollercoaster we ride, I'm on it at the moment. Deep silt, loads of weeds, low stocks, it's made me feel like a complete novice. Like you I'll beat it eventually. Keep on doing it Carl, all the best.
Hello Carl I’ve been watching you for a fair few years and I love your videos your movies just everything is perfect and I thank you for helping my mental health and to not be ashamed or made fun of for fishing.
That's just breathtaking.. Filming, editing, storytelling, struggles, choices, sacrifices and all the things combined were absolutely worth the long wait. Well done, Carl, mega mega quality movie this one is.
Great video Carl, one of the best narratives yet! You really have a talent for storytelling and you're a great role model for younger people getting into the sport - if we ignore your hydration habits 😂
Simply breathtaking storytelling particularly around the 40:00-45:00 mark. The emotion, anticipation and heartbreak were all there. I felt Carl’s obsession myself. Carl, you are an amazing storyteller my friend.
Found that all a little overwhelming, the way the story was told,the way it was shot, your determination to just keep going really made it feel like we were on the bank next to you! So made up for you mate, gave me goosebumps and witnessed you go through every emotion possible. By far some ov the best editing that you've done to date.
There are few fishing classics I can think of… A Passion for Angling being one of them… this video was right up there for me! Such a professional body of work, an absolute masterpiece.. thanks Carl 🙏🏼
There truly is something magical about what you produce Carl. I love fishing, I love carp, I love the outdoors, I love nature and you bring everything together harmoniously every time! Please take better care of yourself, I’d hate to not have more vlogs to watch! Take a bow sir 👏👏👏
genuinely feels like i’m watching a full crew channel 4 documentary, the way you tell a story, the cinematics, the main stream shots and the physical emotions are amazing. i’ve watched the channel for a long time and to watch it grow to what it is now is insane and im so happy for you. tight lines and all the best in the future carl. just remember, health first fish after! 😂
Absolutely incredible from start to finish mate! If this film doesn’t inspire people to follow your “obsession” then I don’t know what will! Should be super proud 💪🏼
Amazing video as always! Very well done! Love watching all you videos as soon as they come out! Keep up the great work and don’t forget to drink some water🤣🤣🤣
Mate I absolutely love this, I’ve seen every carp angling video in the world but this was so enjoyable ! So honest and real and good fun and not promotional just a great guy, a good angler, some top fish and some great camera shots. I love the whole format your videos, you are becoming an absolute favourite mate 👊🏻
The catfish in Switzerland now are massive like massive massive and the pike have grown to a ridiculous size and I’ve been seeing some massive carp at the river Thielle
51:54 What an incredible moment! Witnessing the excitement of landing a PB and the camaraderie among anglers is truly heartwarming. The sheer joy and disbelief on the angler’s face is infectious-it reminds us all why we love this sport. This part is a highlight for me; it beautifully encapsulates the thrill of fishing!
I've been watching for probably 3 years now, and I never watch a video without experiencing true appreciation for your skills in storytelling. There's nothing more relaxing to me than a morning cup of coffee and putting on a video of yours. Plus, as someone just diving into angling myself, seeing your passion for it always makes me want to get out on the water and drop a line in. Thank you for bringing us along with you Carl, and tight lines (and plenty of water 😂).
That Scott bloke seems like a descent fella 😄I used to live up that way! In fact I fished a few waters there but not Willen, Those fish have grown on since then. Jimmy must've put you on to that one?! I remember a video he did of that place! That common had me welling up man?! What's that all about?? 😄 Another great video Carl! And long may it continue! Content of this quality is few and far between these days it seems.
Scott's a fascinating guy and someone I grew much closer to in a relatively short amount of time. Big respect for his help with this campaign. And thanks for watching, glad it gave you the feels like it did for me!
Wow! What a film! Sensational storytelling, tension, drama, pain, elation and pure joy while on a personal journey of discovery through obsession turning to passion. And the carp weren’t too bad either 😉 You’ve grown Carl! Keep enjoying the process Bud. Definitely the best film I’ve watched this year. Big hugs 🤗
@@fishwithcarl Next time you're in the area, send me a message and I'll happily bring ya some grub, I only live down the road from MK, Northampton. I use MK Angling Direct a fair bit myself.
@@fishwithcarl that probably it because some of the chapters are like “never pick up a hitchhiker”. But either way love your content and I have watched nearly all of you videos cheers mate👍
That film... that film right there...!!!! You need to be winning awards!! Absolute class carl!!! I'm amazed how far you've come. Brilliant should be proud of yourself.
Incredible video yet again! It’s insane really what a fish can do to you😅 Story telling is next level when it is impossible to double click even once in an hour long episode. 10/10
You are doing an incredible job Carl! I love watching your videos, and along the way seeing your grow mentally and physically brings me joy but also confidence, that there are honest, dedicated and driven people still out there.
If there is just one video on UA-cam that can give a carp angler the motivation to get out there again then this is the one! I’ve watched this several times and it never fails to inspire me!
Wow what a show, no one can compete with your content, even my mum who isn’t into fishing one bit watches your shows and says they are all brilliant. Can’t wait for the next one. Stay healthy.
Genuinely the best campaign vlog I think I’ve ever seen. A great watch, and even better result. The camera work, cinematography, and your angling ability is next level. Well done Carl 👏
I must congratulate you. This should be on the tv mate. Very enjoyable, showing the true ups, downs, and obsession. Well edited, narrated and you should be proud.
Every video I'm like "this is it, he can't make a video better than this...". But you did it again! Unbelievable, the fishing, the shots, the storytelling, but most of al the insight. Thanks for sharing!
Amazing work carl. Watching you and alex grow up and enjoying yourselves is what life is all about. There are many people who dream about what you have done but you've proven that its all down to hard work. Well done buddy.
That was pure magic Carl. I’ve been watching you and your brother since you started posting videos and, although I gave up fishing for other passions several years ago, I still enjoy these videos. This one was an absolute belter 👌👌👌
This has to be without doubt your best film yet - not only the dedication to so many different camera angles but the entire process. Expressing your honest thoughts throughout it all, the commiment to it all despite so many set backs. Showing a younger and older audience that hard work does pay off and there is no easy way round it. But to keep it all this composed is honestly incredible, a true credit to yourself. Let's not forget that this is a full hour of top tier fishing content for FREE. The futures bright, the futures fish with Carl
I can honestly say that was one of the best vlog-videos i have seen of yours so thanks for that carl and congratulations on your new pb and good luck on the new campaign dude
Excellent! Thanks for sharing. Carp fishing here in the US, especially in New York, is so underrated but for those of us who do target them it's incredible. Seeing Alex and Omi was an added bonus.
That was incredible. I'm not even an angler (yet) and by the end I'd gone through the highs and the lows of the adventure and shed more than a few tears. Beautiful stuff. Thank you.
Absolutely superb journey and story telling. I've watched a lot of fishing videos in the past, but this campaign not only for you but for me two as beginner fisherman taught me a lot of things. Thanks to you Carl!
Love this, just brilliant! The sportsmanship, the ethos, the sentiment l, the fishing!!! Brilliant, love watching your videos with my kids, please keep it up.
Your videos are always a fantastic watch Carl but, as many of the comments reflect, this perhaps more than most other fishing videos, brilliantly captures the sentiments of all of us who love fishing. Delighted that you continue to make such great films for us to enjoy.
Great video Karl just enjoy the time on the bank and the journey building up to that capture. I’ve been there before chasing around and putting too much pressure on myself not really enjoying it. It always happens when you’re not expecting it. That’s the best thing about Fishing.
Sensational movie. Best one you have done yet in my opinion. Possibly the best carp movie I've seen full stop. Something I think we can all relate to. Love your work
I have been glued to your channel for past couple of weeks and its giving me that itch to get back into fishing again, I've not fished for about 20 years but you're videos keep me itching to get back out there and catch some really nice fish. Keep it up I look forward to your next adventure where ever that may be 👍👍
Great video Carl! Stunning fish and hard earned! I'm 46 years old now and it took me a long time to control my obsessions. I've been obsessed with fishing several times and indeed some of my other hobbies. When I feel myself thinking about only one thing and believing that's the only thing that can bring me joy or satisfaction, I know from experience that the end point is almost always disillusion, burnout and a loss of joy. I still love my fishing because I don't do it all the time. I sometimes let the obsession monster out for a two week campaign of pre-baiting and fishing, but once it works or fails I back off again. Balance is a bloody hard thing to achieve. We all get it wrong sometimes. Look after yourself.
Cinematography, editing, overall production, inspirational, top notch! what a story! This really gets the fires stoked. Recently returned to carp fishing after a 13 year hiatus due to having young kids (i never sold my tackle knowing i would return). This is everything magical about carp fishing and everything i remember of being absolutely obsessed, thank you.
That film is probably the best carp film I’ve seen Carl, amazing footage, awesome editing and brilliant narration. Be very very proud of that work!!!!! Massive congratulations
Wow what a movie it was indeed! Always blows my mind at the level of quality and detail you put into these videos whilst working so hard and putting in the hours on the bank, you deserve every single bit of your accomplishments! What a legend!!!!
Thanks Lewis!! Juggling fishing time, editing time, filming and working on my business stuff is sometimes really tricky! Glad you enjoyed the film though! Means a lot! ❤️
Incredible stuff Carl, having a job that puts you under the 1% can often be taken for granted, sometimes we have to stop to take a look at how far we’ve come and how privileged we are to be doing what we’re doing and then the enjoyment is so easy to come by. Well done mate, that mirror is INSANE!!
The ups and downs of Carp fishing, the young lad saying to you, "This is the best part of my holiday" melted my heart, hope you realise just how powerful you, your videos, grit and dedication to Angling enspires Anglers of all ages, keep it up bud ❤
Just amazing. Goes to show if you put in the work you will get the reward. I used to fish almost every weekend 6-7 years ago & I think this has just gave me the itch to get back out on the banks. Cheers mate keep up the great videos 🎣💚
Ive been waiting to watch this for the last two weeks! Worth the wait too. Fantastic episode/vlog/film. Thank you for the content. It was a great way to unwind and end my holiday.
Amazing film, one of your best Carl - Thoroughly enjoyed it! I think we can all identify with the obsession part when you know there is a huge target fish you have set your heart on, your journey should be essential viewing to show us all what it can do. Congratulations on the PB Mirror
Much love Carl ❤ that mirror was a belter and I love the fact you lost that fish and you still kept it together and managed to take some pics with your fans. Like you said on the snagged bro interview/podcast thing you want to inspire other anglers and you want to help spread happiness. You’ve inspired me and you will continue too. Glad your kidney stones are getting better .
What a movie Carl! Im enjoying everything your channel provides, excitement, love, loss and hope. Your a really talented editor and i fully enjoyed this production mate! Well done Carl 👍🏻
Cant wait for the next upload, love the fact you have got back into carp fishing again even tho i did like your other ones but the carp videos take us all right back to when you and alex where doing a quest for a 20 at tanyard. Thankyou and keep it up
Simply put an amazing film, the passion, the tribulations and the love is there to see for all. After a 3 month break from angling myself this film has sparked a fire 🔥
Excellent video as always matey. It's horrible when a carp gets under your skin but the reward when it hits the spreader block is the best feeling in the world
Carl, amazing story telling buddy. I'd say your most acumplished film yet and one of the very best angling video I've seen. Congratulations a monument of a film.
Utterly amazing 🙏🏼. Your films are always more than just the fishing, they show the complete story and all the attached memories, moment, mayhem & madness! The amount of time and effort you put in truly shows in the quality of each individual element of this story. Always a pleasure to watch and keep doing what you’re doing 😊👑.
Absolutely stunning video as always! What an experience. And sharing it with so many friends and people around the lake must have been really nice! I always tell people your videos are some of the best on UA-cam no matter what the channel is about. This is another example! Thanks for all the hard work and the amazing video!
great video carl and to here that boy say you was the highlight of his sommer holiday shows just how much people appreciate your videos great work keep the videos coming mate
Absolutely insane...between the production quality, your personality, the trial and tribulations of the mental aspect and personal health. Not to mention the perseverance of continuing on and catching that incredible mirror. I have no doubt you will one day catch the big common, but its important to slow down and appreciate what you've already accomplished in the meantime. Please take time to enjoy your friends and family! Thanks as always Carl!
Carl, your videos are always top class. The whole story you tell is always great and inspiring. Well done on the mirror. What a beast! Keep up the good work but most of all. Look after yourself! We need you healthy.👏👏👏👍👍👍
It was surely one of the greatest carp fishing movie I have seen. It is fascinating how you link the beauty of the nature and the mental side of fishing. Maybe that's why I love your films so much. Watching it gave me chills and true motivation to make the best out of the one month left in summer, and the autumn time on my local rivers holding real beasts.🤩 Wish you good health, and all the best Carl!🐟 Best regards, Öcsi, a Hungarian carp angler🤝
Carl that is 58 minutes and 54 seconds of story telling to the highest level. A campaign and a video you can be really proud of.
Thank you so much Ashley :) Means a lot!!

Thank you so much Nick :) Was a heartwarming moment!!!
Carl truly brilliant.
I've watched Scott's stuff to.
Brilliant. Great videos all round wish I had half the fishing talent and time 😅😊
Losing a fish and having a fan come up to you instantly after must be such a conflicting experience. Props for handling it well 👍🏻
It was a bit of a crazy moment! But it took the pain away a little ahhaa!

Love this, just brilliant! The sportsmanship, the ethos, the sentiment l, the fishing!!! Brilliant, love watching your videos with my kids, please keep it up.
Cheers Cheers :) will do. Tight lines!
Your videos are always a fantastic watch Carl but, as many of the comments reflect, this perhaps more than most other fishing videos, brilliantly captures the sentiments of all of us who love fishing. Delighted that you continue to make such great films for us to enjoy.
❤ thanks for the kinds words, means a lot
Carl, brilliant.
Passion,
Tenacity,
Love,
determination & joy.
Well done sir!!
Thanks so much Mark!
Great video Karl just enjoy the time on the bank and the journey building up to that capture. I’ve been there before chasing around and putting too much pressure on myself not really enjoying it. It always happens when you’re not expecting it. That’s the best thing about Fishing.
Sensational movie. Best one you have done yet in my opinion. Possibly the best carp movie I've seen full stop. Something I think we can all relate to. Love your work
Thanks mate. Means a lot! Glad you enjoyed :)
By far the best video I have watched this year. The way the story was told, I could feel the passion. Keep up the great work.
Wow, thank you mate ❤
I have been glued to your channel for past couple of weeks and its giving me that itch to get back into fishing again, I've not fished for about 20 years but you're videos keep me itching to get back out there and catch some really nice fish. Keep it up I look forward to your next adventure where ever that may be 👍👍
The joy on your face and happiness in your voice is so nice to see man! So happy for you. Thank you for the video it was such a great watch.
Ahh that's kind, glad you enjoyed it! :) Thanks so much Harry!
Great video Carl! Stunning fish and hard earned! I'm 46 years old now and it took me a long time to control my obsessions. I've been obsessed with fishing several times and indeed some of my other hobbies. When I feel myself thinking about only one thing and believing that's the only thing that can bring me joy or satisfaction, I know from experience that the end point is almost always disillusion, burnout and a loss of joy. I still love my fishing because I don't do it all the time. I sometimes let the obsession monster out for a two week campaign of pre-baiting and fishing, but once it works or fails I back off again. Balance is a bloody hard thing to achieve. We all get it wrong sometimes. Look after yourself.
Cinematography, editing, overall production, inspirational, top notch! what a story! This really gets the fires stoked. Recently returned to carp fishing after a 13 year hiatus due to having young kids (i never sold my tackle knowing i would return). This is everything magical about carp fishing and everything i remember of being absolutely obsessed, thank you.
Thanks so much mate, appreciate that ❤
That film is probably the best carp film I’ve seen Carl, amazing footage, awesome editing and brilliant narration. Be very very proud of that work!!!!!
Massive congratulations
Wow, thanks so much mate - yeah it was a big one, it meant a lot do, so happy and blown away with the love it's received.
Greetings from Belgium. A true genuine masterpiece, made from the heart. A true fisherman’s soul on video.
Wow, thank you mate ❤ that means a lot to hear - tight lines :)
Wow what a movie it was indeed! Always blows my mind at the level of quality and detail you put into these videos whilst working so hard and putting in the hours on the bank, you deserve every single bit of your accomplishments! What a legend!!!!
Thanks Lewis!! Juggling fishing time, editing time, filming and working on my business stuff is sometimes really tricky! Glad you enjoyed the film though! Means a lot! ❤️
Incredible stuff Carl, having a job that puts you under the 1% can often be taken for granted, sometimes we have to stop to take a look at how far we’ve come and how privileged we are to be doing what we’re doing and then the enjoyment is so easy to come by. Well done mate, that mirror is INSANE!!
Definitely ❤ thank you mate, tight lines :)
The ups and downs of Carp fishing, the young lad saying to you, "This is the best part of my holiday" melted my heart, hope you realise just how powerful you, your videos, grit and dedication to Angling enspires Anglers of all ages, keep it up bud ❤
Just amazing. Goes to show if you put in the work you will get the reward. I used to fish almost every weekend 6-7 years ago & I think this has just gave me the itch to get back out on the banks. Cheers mate keep up the great videos 🎣💚
Ive been waiting to watch this for the last two weeks! Worth the wait too. Fantastic episode/vlog/film. Thank you for the content. It was a great way to unwind and end my holiday.
Ahh super happy to hear that mate! Glad you had a lovely end to your holiday :)
“The passion brings joy and energy to your life whilst obsession consumes it from inside out”
-Carl 2024
Amazing film, one of your best Carl - Thoroughly enjoyed it! I think we can all identify with the obsession part when you know there is a huge target fish you have set your heart on, your journey should be essential viewing to show us all what it can do. Congratulations on the PB Mirror
Much love Carl ❤ that mirror was a belter and I love the fact you lost that fish and you still kept it together and managed to take some pics with your fans. Like you said on the snagged bro interview/podcast thing you want to inspire other anglers and you want to help spread happiness. You’ve inspired me and you will continue too. Glad your kidney stones are getting better .
❤❤❤
Another epic video. Thanks for sharing Carl and congrats on the huge catch!
Thanks mate!
I've watched and been inspired by you for years. This is some of your best work right here. Brilliant.
Ahh that's lovely to hear! Happy the films have inspired you :) Ahh thank you so much mate!
Love the campaign, love the passion for the carp. It is obsession, but that makes it special, unique. Makes me live the campaign with you.
What a movie Carl! Im enjoying everything your channel provides, excitement, love, loss and hope. Your a really talented editor and i fully enjoyed this production mate! Well done Carl 👍🏻
Thanks so much mate, that's kind!
What a movie Carl, absolute stunner of a film. I can’t comprehend how much editing and work goes into these video’s. Congrats on your PB!
❤️ ah thanks so much man :)
Cant wait for the next upload, love the fact you have got back into carp fishing again even tho i did like your other ones but the carp videos take us all right back to when you and alex where doing a quest for a 20 at tanyard. Thankyou and keep it up
Simply put an amazing film, the passion, the tribulations and the love is there to see for all. After a 3 month break from angling myself this film has sparked a fire 🔥
Thanks so much Brett! Yesss, I'm glad to hear it! All the best with your fishing mate :)
Excellent video as always matey. It's horrible when a carp gets under your skin but the reward when it hits the spreader block is the best feeling in the world
Absolutely is!! :) thank you mate!
One of the best carp films I’ve ever watched. Amazing storytelling, videography and the involvement of Scott, well that was the cherry on top. 👏👏👏
Oh wow, thank you man ❤
Carl, this has been my favourite fishing video I've watched so far. Please look after yourself! And thankyou for bringing great content.
Carl, amazing story telling buddy. I'd say your most acumplished film yet and one of the very best angling video I've seen. Congratulations a monument of a film.
Mate, thanks so much, happy you enjoyed it mate :) tight lines.
Utterly amazing 🙏🏼. Your films are always more than just the fishing, they show the complete story and all the attached memories, moment, mayhem & madness!
The amount of time and effort you put in truly shows in the quality of each individual element of this story. Always a pleasure to watch and keep doing what you’re doing 😊👑.
Thanks so much mate, means a lot ❤
Absolutely stunning video as always! What an experience. And sharing it with so many friends and people around the lake must have been really nice!
I always tell people your videos are some of the best on UA-cam no matter what the channel is about. This is another example! Thanks for all the hard work and the amazing video!
Carl. This update was probably your best work. Great journey to follow you on. Truly inspiring. 😊
Mate, thank you ❤ I'm glad :)
great video carl and to here that boy say you was the highlight of his sommer holiday shows just how much people appreciate your videos great work keep the videos coming mate
You deserve everything you get out of fishing mate top fisherman and even better human.x
❤ thank you!
Amazing Carl! Loved every second of this. What a fantastically well produced film. Well done you!
Glad you enjoyed it Richard, thanks mate :)
Absolutely insane...between the production quality, your personality, the trial and tribulations of the mental aspect and personal health. Not to mention the perseverance of continuing on and catching that incredible mirror. I have no doubt you will one day catch the big common, but its important to slow down and appreciate what you've already accomplished in the meantime. Please take time to enjoy your friends and family! Thanks as always Carl!
Carl, your videos are always top class. The whole story you tell is always great and inspiring. Well done on the mirror. What a beast! Keep up the good work but most of all. Look after yourself! We need you healthy.👏👏👏👍👍👍
It was surely one of the greatest carp fishing movie I have seen. It is fascinating how you link the beauty of the nature and the mental side of fishing. Maybe that's why I love your films so much. Watching it gave me chills and true motivation to make the best out of the one month left in summer, and the autumn time on my local rivers holding real beasts.🤩
Wish you good health, and all the best Carl!🐟
Best regards,
Öcsi, a Hungarian carp angler🤝
Thank you so much!!! ❤️❤️❤️
