Вставка
- Опубліковано 10 бер 2023
- Welcome back to another fishing video guys. Firstly thank you for your continued and real support on youtube and on instagram. It is always very much appreciated.
You join me as I head out fishing when the recent floods were slowly receding,yet over the banks still on some sections of this river. Armed with bread,cheese, worms and the link leger. In search of a chub or two and hopeful of finding some lurking in the many slacks and bends of this particular waterway. Lets head out and see what's feeding!?
You can also message me quicker on instagram

Another great video Mark. Some chunky chub there. Proper rod benders
Another great video Mark. Keep them coming please as they are really enjoyable.
Another brilliant instalment of your angling exploits . The speed you struck into that 1st bite… I had to watch it twice.
congratulations friend! again beautiful fishing trip ! see you soon!
I hear that cold wind whipping around, familiar sound that but good to be on the bank.
Chub have always given me the greatest pleasure in fishing,with good old bread being my no1 bait to catch them with 👍👍👍
Oh definitely Nic, the American express of chevin baits, you'd not want to leave home without it haha.
Skillfully fished that!...good to see a bit of rain, on the land!... thankfully..nice Ariel perspective of the flooded river dynamic
Thanks and yes makes a change to see some of that wet stuff. Cheers regarding the aerial footage, I must admit it has captured the essence well.
nice video mark and bagged four chub that river holds some big fish ,it looks proper crabtree with the bends and the over hanging trees and bushes ,it s that nice type of fishing travel light and enjoy different swims ,and settle into nature only river anglers get that or old lakes .anglers total immersion in the local nature brilliant well nice one mark until your next adventure by the waters edge tight lines..
I could not agree more Stephen and I think that I speak for many of us when I say that I'll miss the rivers when they shut up shop 😔
Great session mate some lovely chub there well done 👏👏👏👏
Good video again Mark my friend and do you know what it has just occurred to me i have never caught a chub hmmm a target for the next river season
Funnily enough I had never caught a Chub till I started watching marks channel, and now I consider myself a Chub fisherman 😂
Thanks Phil! Oh definitely you should give it a go, summer chub fishing and winter are so vastly different and in always surprised that more anglers don't stalk them in summer, it can be great fun.
@@_-Spoons-_ ah Mr Sussex! Tough trip you had yesterday, but you gave it a good go.
Another fantastic video Mark and some lovely chub well done mate 👏👍
Cheers John 👍😀
Nice fish Mark, loved the drone footage! Good to see someone else getting the rains for a change.
I do enjoy this sort of conditions as well. Thank you for sharing
Cheers! They're decent conditions and usually quieter on the bank too.
Absolute corker as usual sir bravo 👍
Thanks Merryl 😃👍

@@markerd5378 - yes indeedy mate, you are very welcome! Keep on keeping on and tight lines to ya!!
Cracking video Mark..really liked the drone footage adds a great view and layout of where your fishing.
I’m doing good thanks for asking…and I’ve Finally done it…been chasing my own challenge of beating my pb

Cheers Mate
Heya mate, congratulations 🎉on the new chevin pb. I'm sure you'll get a 7 as well in due course! No rush just enjoy the journey 👍
Thanks again Mark - 3 (and a bit) nice chubs!
Thanks mate, haha, yes the last one was a pint sized chevin 😂🍻👍
Great video mark. The rivers are up at the moment,but glad you had a enjoyable session. Like you the sewage situation is a real concern for me and I'm hoping some changes are made sooner rather than later 🤞
Thanks Ross, sadly I can't see the situation changing as fast as we would ideally like, but we have to keep the pressure on them!
Hi mate, another enjoyable session and the drone footage adds another dimension to what are already great videos 👍
That's good to hear, I don't use my drone enough at times!
Hi Mark, I must say that the quality of your videos is getting better and better. following your videos for the last few years I have picked up a few things you're doing that I might not have been doing myself, which if am honest these tips have improved my catch rate, all I have to do now is improve the quality of what I catch!. I love the drone shots you are now including.
Thanks John, glad to hear that. I've used the drone on and off over the years on tench videos etc and when Nicholas and I were friends and attempted to fish the flooded Hampshire avon, but I don't always use it enough.
Another very good video Mark well done with the fish. I do hope these vids don't dry up during the close season i will get withdrawal symptoms. Just to add i haven't forgotten about the bass fishing mate and we will defo sort something out if your still interested.
Thanks Mark and yes definitely would be interested! No I've got plenty of thjngs lined up for the closed season thankfully. It will also have a ton of household work that needs tending to, flat roof repairs amongst them 😬. So I guess I'll just have to do what us men don't do so well and multi-task 😂.
Great angling mate 👍 love your videos
Lovely stretch of water...the aerial views really add to the story, thanks for sharing.
Thank you very much, this time round the drone didn't decide to lose signal which helps lol.
Great video Mark fella
wonderfull fishing as always
Another great enjoyable video, liking the drone views. 👍🏻
I left the U.K in the early 80's and the chub in the U.K appear to be much bigger these days.
I'd say that's correct in the case of quote a few species. The crayfish boom has created quite a lot of this , which is of course not a good thing and quite damaging to the future of juvenile fish recruitment and newer stocks coming through. Sure the high protein diet of crayfish for adult fish does mean they pack on the weight,but alas it doesn't help future fish coming through due to fish eggs being consumed by the high crayfish populations most of our rivers now have especially down south.
Cracking vid mark
Thank you Richard 🙂👍
Quality as usual mark.
Cheers Darren 🙂
Well done again Mark ,...I really admire your dedication.
Thanks John, a river bank is my happy place and never a chore to film for you guys.
@@markerd5378 Mark ,...your drone footage only adds to the thrill ,.you may have missed your slot with the likes of Jeremy wade and John Wilson but you capture the very essence of fishing ,..you are youtubes most admired fisherman in my opinion , I am going to the Cambridgeshire fens for the glorious 16th 2023 and would love to share with you the experience of a few days fishing ,..let's get something organised .
Always enjoy your videos mark keep up the great work..
Thanks Picko, that's always good to hear, there's plenty more to come.
Nice Chub!
Another blinder! :)
Another awesome video. Just what I needed to see. I got the Middy 5G last year for pleasure fishing for tench and carp. Lovely to see it will be fine in a river. The drone footage was good. Very interesting to see where the flow is. More please! Can I ask what chest waders you use?
Well done mate, flood conditions can make things difficult, you caught some lovely looking shy biting fish there and made it look easy. The strike around the 5 minute mark was fast! On camera the bite was barely perceptible. Chub do seem to pluck at the bait sometimes don't they which is in stark contrast to other times when they can aggressively grab a lure.
Thanks Beesa, yes they can be quite wily at mouthing baits and not giving the game away at times. You always have to decipher between current, debris and a crafty chub, warily mouthing the bait.
Fabulous trip Mark! Were they all on bread flake? A lot of fun watching, all were tiny knocks on the tip which you were quickly on to! Even some drone footage! Do you fly it? Great you mentioned the national sewage issue...all about saving the WCs money to give to shareholders... scandalous. Keep up the great chub videos, love them all! 👍🤗
Another great video Mark. With regards to the rod you used, can I ask what size tip you used?
Also, for fishing rivers like the Kennet, do you know if the 10 foot version would be fine instead of the nine foot? Thanks.
Lovely bit of river. Where is it??
any river carp fishing tips, for my next river season please
Great video Mark, aka 'The Chub master'!
I always watch your new videos soon after they are released. The algorithm knows to tell me about it immediately 😂
One qu if I may:
You always seem to take maggots with you but I never see you using them when fishing for Chub.
Why bother taking such an expensive and temporary bait if you don't use it?
Haha, cheers its nice when youtube actually works and doesn't forget to send followers notifications about new uploads. I tend to use maggots on my chub trips either in cocktail baits such as worm and maggot together or as a light feed bait to draw chub into a competitive mood. They keep for months too. I do not really consider 2 pints of maggot expensive, but only because I've got a habit of making them last ages due to me being a tight sod lol😂. To me expensive would be 5 or 6 pints a trip and feeding heavily, either trotting or via a maggot feeder, like some of the match anglers tend to do. Main reason for not over using them as a bait on quite a few areas is minnow attention as well. I always take them and they always get used but for the most part as a confidence gaining feed.
Shame you cant fish some yorkshire rivers,youd love the nidd
Mate i often think about the Nidd :(
Nice job as usual Mark. You know I hear you speak on sewage quite often. How bad is it really over there. Are they not regulated? I know all large companies are not to be trusted but how bad is it affecting you fish?
Hey Darion and thanks mate. Sadly our water companies are privatised and the independent regulatory bodies that are supposed to keep them under scrutiny are not good at their job. To tell you how bad it is in the UK, whenever we get serious rainfall our sewage treatment systems become overloaded and then overflow and pump into rivers. For example one of my local rivers had just recently no less than 970 hours of constant sewage being pumped into it, that's around 38 days of constant pollution. The water companies in the UK pay their CEO big bonuses, they make vast profits but haven't put enough money into modernisation of the current water treatment structure. Corruption is rife and our supposed bastions that are there to protect our waterways are also letting us down.
Is that the 9ft or 10ft middy 5G.
5g mini feeder rod 9ft
In a previous video i think he said it was the 11ft.
@@Wilde_UK is it's the 9 foot mini feeder mate
@@markerd5378 sorry the reply was not from the channel account.
@@Wilde_UK that's ok mate I use this account from my mobile. Sorry for the confusion.
