With put a doubt you really do some of the best live match fishing vids out there , loving all the content lately more than ever I feel this is the future now for learning and sales etc . Exciting times ahead hope you and family are well stay safe all cheers Andy watts 🌈👍🏼🙏🏻
Another enjoyable video Jon. Can't help but wonder whether or not an entire forest had taken up swimming. Seeing little Katie at the end was a highlight for. This lockdown has kept my grandaughter at bay for far too long. She'll be 2 in May. All of here a missing her. Thanks again Jon.
Love matches like that, it's all about thinking your way through and finding the fish. Sometimes you've just got to fish the peg rather than the lake/match. Great video tea pot.👍👍👍
Well done, nice to see some fishing, missing being out there as I only started in August, had some great weather as well. Hopefully not too long to wait so we get some summer fishing done, love the videos , hope to see you at a match maybe. Stay safe
Well done Jon, If they had allowed branches you would have won the match, You probably caught a lot more fish than most anglers would have done on that peg. You kept your cool after losing fish and again most anglers would have been pulling there hair out, and that's another reason your a top, top, angler, All the best Jon.
Another great video Jon, thanks for all the time and effort you put in, looking at the number of views you get, it is really appreciated, especially at the moment when we’re unable to wet a line 👍🏻 Hope you and your family are staying well 👍🏻
Thoroughly enjoyed that Jon. Wow Katie has grown! My two are 6 and 8...time flies. Keep the videos coming. Particularly enjoying your lockdown vids too. The pots was very interesting.
Be nice to think, in lock down they could be going round n round in a boat tree cutting and raking, by the time anglers are allowed back, the tree would look nice, and there more than enough wood for winter log burner. Hate to see (what some mite call) a sterile managed venue but, that’s just to much rubbish, with large carp in it. It’s amazing how quick things grow, when left alone. Well done getting a few of yours out.💪💪👍
Difficult task clearing a venue that big of all the branches. It would take forever and only takes one windy weekend to be back to square one. I think my peg was worse than most because it is narrow while 95% of the fishery is open water. Branches or not I wouldn't have qualified!
and i thought it was just me who had an ancient pair of styl pincers. thanks for taking the time with that vid jon, might be a whike til we see another one.
Hi Jon, a great video on a difficult peg. I see that you tried your best and given less twigs I reckon you could have got the section. I do enjoy you live match video's. As always I hope you and your family are staying safe. Regards Bill
Thanks for the videos Jon just a pity you won’t be able to make any more for the foreseeable future until then look after yourself and stay safe and sane .many thanks richie
great video jon ,you have got more patience than me. i would have been tearing my hair out with the branches.you would have thought the fishery would do something about the branches, if they did five pegs a day it would help,i know you said you had no chance from the lake you was on is that down to the stocking density of the other lakes being a lot higher...all the best scott
Campbell is highly stocked with less place to hide, so that lake dominates all the matches. Middle isn't match fished so much and not got the same head of fish. As far as branches go, on a 130 peg+ venue clearing them is like painting the Forth Bridge! I think my narrow old swim was an exception really. Its a lovely looking venue and I'd hate to see all the old trees chopped down!
@@JonArthur thanks for the reply jon, i'm not a advocate of cutting trees down but i think with the down time we have been on. something can be done about the rubbish in the margins and do you think that fisheries should have a level stocking on all lakes,i find it demoralising to draw on a lake that hasn't got a cat in hells chance of winning...many thanks scott
Another good un Jon and those carp were in very good nick. Speaks volumes that you knew you probably had no chance of the win but stayed and fished anyway. Did you ever find out if you got 2nd in section ?
Enjoyed the coverage of the match. I was interested in your landing net handle, is that a standard handle or adapted as it seemed very thick at the net end and very rigid! Thanks.
Jon Great match video, just watching you pullout lots of branches got me thinking is it down to the individual angler to clear his swim before a match or is it down to the fishery to clear debris that has fallen off due to strong winds etc? Thanks
I think if you can't see them you won't know they're there til you hook them. It'd be very difficult to rake all the pegs. Huge undertaking maintaining a fishery of this size.
Much as I love your videos & I do despite not interested in match fishing and at 67 just pleasure fish myself. I was under the assumption that the government & River authorities had banned fishing until further notice .. .. surely this place is not breaking the law .. .. Tight lines one day
@@JonArthur I'm sorry Jon I wrote the comments b4 watching and obviously found out at the end .. .. I thought I had deleted my unless comments but obviously not .. .. just more worried about people safety thats all .. .. thanks for sharing and stay safe
Someone recently said on UA-cam that you can't talk and fish at the same time. Think it was Des . I'm exactly the same even worse if someone is sat behind me!!
It's a tough one as this lake isn't match fished as much as the rest and its such a mature fishery that clearing branches would be like painting the Forth Bridge!

Glad you enjoyed it. It's a very mature venue full of old trees so it must be like painting the Forth Bridge clearing the branches!
Jon you are one of the few top match men that leave a reply on all the comments on your videos top videos top matchman keep SAFE and your family
I always miss a few but I try my best! :-)
Love matches like that, it's all about thinking your way through and finding the fish. Sometimes you've just got to fish the peg rather than the lake/match. Great video tea pot.👍👍👍
Many thanks BCF!

Cheers. I have about 10 pairs as they're invaluable for me!
Brilliant video, always look forward to these, hopefully we'll all be out on the bank again soon 👍
I hope so too!
Another good one Jonny with a special Guest Star😊Great job as always. Take care!

The pond's looking increasingly tempting!
Another great vid Jon, can’t wait till we can get back on the bank!!!!
Same here!

Absolutely awesome video john really appreciate it stay safe,ALIEN

Hi John only just got round to watching that match hope all is well and bring on Wednesday let's all get back on the bank (responsibly)👍
🤞
Another Brill vid Jon....stay safe
Thanks Leslie, you too!
Nicest man in fishing and Dave wood
Darren Kennedy don’t forget alan blair if your in too your carp fishing fantastic guy.
Another good un Jon and those carp were in very good nick. Speaks volumes that you knew you probably had no chance of the win but stayed and fished anyway. Did you ever find out if you got 2nd in section ?
Nope!
Well done Jon, did the best from a poor peg and tree city :)
Cheers George
Enjoyed the coverage of the match. I was interested in your landing net handle, is that a standard handle or adapted as it seemed very thick at the net end and very rigid! Thanks.
It's the 4m Matrix Horizon but just the 2nd and 3rd sections. The 1st and 2nd are threaded so you have both options.
Good fishing
It wasn't my best effort to be fair, but I'd probably resigned myself to not winning anything!
Jon what no banana stay safe and well and keep making great videos
Banana shortage!
Good vid mate I was going to fish that match but could not get off work anyway stay safe mate 👍👍
No worries, it was a crueller for quite a few. Would be fishing well now IF we could go!
@@JonArthur what are they going to do about fisho then I can not see it going to be on this year
Jon Great match video, just watching you pullout lots of branches got me thinking is it down to the individual angler to clear his swim before a match or is it down to the fishery to clear debris that has fallen off due to strong winds etc? Thanks
I think if you can't see them you won't know they're there til you hook them. It'd be very difficult to rake all the pegs. Huge undertaking maintaining a fishery of this size.
@@JonArthur thanks 👍
Much as I love your videos & I do despite not interested in match fishing and at 67 just pleasure fish myself. I was under the assumption that the government & River authorities had banned fishing until further notice .. .. surely this place is not breaking the law .. .. Tight lines one day
This event was held just before the lockdown. It was the last Angling Trust event they ran I think.

bester Mann an der Kopfrute
Vielen Dank mein Freund
when tieing a loop with a loop tier do u just do 1 full turn ?
I think one is sufficient with a proper figure of eight loop, but I sometimes do two turns out of habit.
I’m surprised you don’t fish with gammon on the hook jhon
I always fish gammon when I’m on the long pole
And hair rigged on the bomb
I find normal meat is as good as anything but gammon would certainly be a bit more robust.
Jon Arthur Angling I use a bit meat punch buddy especially when you have nuisance fish up in the water 👍
What is the best lake to fish in the summer anyone now and what peg
Campbell all the way, but Cary if you want some big old zoo creatures.
@@JonArthur what peg on Campball is you favourite
Well mumbled!
Keep on yakking and mumbling I say :-) :-)
Someone recently said on UA-cam that you can't talk and fish at the same time. Think it was Des . I'm exactly the same even worse if someone is sat behind me!!
Thats poor fishery management! All those snags in a swim for a qualifying match! Must have been so frustrating well done on what you achieved!
It's a tough one as this lake isn't match fished as much as the rest and its such a mature fishery that clearing branches would be like painting the Forth Bridge!
@@JonArthur Ah right
many thanks for the reply Jon!
How have you gone fishing right now please tell me!!!! I’m having no joy in my kitchen sink
This was shot before the lockdown. I'd love to be fishing now too!
Is the word “skimmery” in the dictionary lol.
Its in mine ha ha! :-)
Skimbos. Must be in the dictionary lol
Your rig making dexterity is sexy.!
Oooh
There some big Snigs in Viaduct!
And snags! 💪
