Exploring the UK's Clearest River!

  • Опубліковано 4 лип 2024
  • Join me as I fish for a variety of species that live in one of the UK's healthiest rivers, known for it's water clarity - only, upon arriving, it seems that may not be the case at all...
    Big thanks to my brother Stephen for helping me film this one, and to ‪@The_ginger_fisherman‬ for putting me on the fish!! You guys are the best :)

    • @tomwilshaw

  • @benscarping2941
    @benscarping2941 23 дні тому

    I fish this river myself, and have had the same issue with them cutting the weed and it completely ruins the fishing, not sure why they do it as it doesn’t really benefit the river to cut the weed. On a good day though the river produces class fish, I’ve had double figure barbel and perch to 2lb plus as well as 5lb chub

    • @tomwilshaw
      @tomwilshaw  16 днів тому

      It didn’t really make much sense to me either, especially considering that at the time the fish hadn’t spawned yet. It’s a wicked bit of water :) I do hope to be back to try and win one of those bigger barbel!

  • @averageguy8090
    @averageguy8090 28 днів тому

    Never walk downriver as the vibrations can scare the fish below you, always fish against the current as the vibrations will carry away from the fish you're looking for :)

    • @tomwilshaw
      @tomwilshaw  26 днів тому

      That makes a lot of sense! Do you then cast upstream and try and keep the tension as the float comes back towards you? Always learning :)
