There is something wrong with your channel, Carl. Out of all the channels I subscribe too, yours is the only one that consistently interest me. All of the others I have slowly lost interest, but not yours. I think it’s because of the consistent quality in your videos, bringing them on par with most TV fishing shows.
Surely you mean "there is something right with your channel "
@@morgan1985uk ..... Sarcasm
With you on that mate, do you watch Snagged Bro? Very similar energy to Carls vidoes with a bit more banter. Carls done a few vids with them too
@@1DreadedAngel feel like snag bros videos ain’t no where near carls, plus they just do to much
What a great comment!
Hats off to the guy who cleaned up the trash, well done. it would be nice to see others follow your example.
If everyone took just a little home, our world would be spotless! :)
Lovely to see youngsters out fishing in these urban environments.
Yes Sir
Agreed :)
Ex Saffa here, Lived in England for only a few years now….tried fishing in a few spots at campsites etc, have never had so many people check or try and stop the fishing … maybe it’s just me growing up in rural Africa and just having total freedom as a kid when fishing, but I just wish fresh water fishing here was more free and less of a closed club, and then more kids would be fishing instead of been on the streets
Hi Carl absolutely love all your videos. I haven't fished for 6 years but have recently got my licence again and back at it because of your videos. Your videos have given me alot of inspiration and joy.
😊 ah mega to hear this, have fun mate!!
It's crazy how good the fishing here is. I worked security at the train station a few years back & would go talk to the anglers during breaks. They'd tell me about the huge fish they caught & until I saw it myself I didn't believe them lol. I've witnessed 12lb barbel, 10lb Brown trout & 5lb chub caught, was told there's big carp too but not seen them. As to why the barbel are there, apparently, a few years ago the River Aire was stocked with young barbel, & what happened is a lot got stuck in this section cos there's a big weir downstream, the station rapids upstream, plus a good supply of food from various factors. It's perfect for them. Oh, & the Leeds -Liverpool canal joins the River here too, in the last bit of the canal before the lock there are 5lb perch, seen them caught also. Good perch fishing where Hol Beck joins the River near the canal also. It's amazing, you have to see it to believe it 😂
Really excellent to hear of rivers that are still thriving, I was beginning to lose hope
Well done really well put together,you don’t need any sponsors you have got what it takes to make a very watchable programme good luck for the future been a fisherman 38 yrs
The level and quality of your videos after a few years of not watching (went of UA-cam and fishing) it’s brilliant to see how much your channel has grown and the content you’re putting out! Finally getting into course fishing after years of being interested but after starting to watch you again! I’ve never been so excited been out once caught 4 trout and couldn’t of been happier ! Can’t wait to try get some carp and other species !
Urban fishing is consistently producing specimen fish
(A bit like the size of Urban foxes) !
As a kid i did my "apprenticeship" fishing my local docks, but the dream was always the "royalty" in Hampshire (all the magazines promoted this as the creme da la creme for barbel fishing).
I still enjoy the massive bream on the occasional visit to the docks, but the snob in me keeps me away.
Personally, for me, the environment is more important than the actual fishing.
I guess we have to push boundaries and adapt if we want that special fish though !
(THAT SAID, YOUR VIDEOS ARE ABSOLUTELY FANTASTIC IN ANY ENVIRONMENT)👍🏻
Ahh thank you mate, appreciate that, glad you enjoy them!!
I would just like to thank you for getting me back into fishing and your videos inspire me so thank you Carl!
That is awesome :) super happy to hear you're back into it. Enjoy mate, tight lines!
Just as im gearing up for a perch trip, Carl uploads a video. Fishing can wait 20 min lol
Only thing that delays my gearing up 😂
😂 Enjoy mate!!!
Well done lads, big up Luke and Leyton! Love these urban adventures!
Carl first of all welcome to the Lake District hope you liked it, I live on the coast . Love the video lots of different things happening . Congrats on finally getting the Barbel in the end.
Yet again top top quality content! Not a single bad upload! Thank you!
Ahh you're welcome mate. Appreciate that massively :) Cheers Chris!
Awesome barbel fishing right in the centre of leeds who would've thought it. Great video Carl cant wait for the next one .🎣👍👍
Hi Carl. I’ve been watching your channel for years, and lately, I have been thinking of inviting you kayak fishing.
Me and my friend Richard Archer are both in the England kayak fishing team, and we are more than happy to take you out on the water so you can experience kayak lure fishing on a Hobie Pro Angler tournament set up for yourself. Let me know if you are interested.
That would be such a good video
@@Liam-mk4bmfor sure
Great to watch as always mate :)
Thanks for sharing .
I love seeing fish being caught in weird oddball spots like this. Great video again dude!
Yessss love unexpected spots!! Thank man, Glad you enjoyed it!
big up anyone picking up litter consistently 8blessing love & respect.
Enjoying these vids as usual. Thank you guys for sharing!
Thanks mate!!!
Thanks for the Video. Barbel was stocked in Bingley about 15 miles upstream. Double figures around that area now. I used to live in Bingley just a few minutes walk from the river. Ironically I travelled to Bridgnorth on the Severn to catch barbel. City centre in Leeds always offered a bit of free fishing not sure if it is still the case but it was good for roach but never knew about the barbel or fished the centre myself.
Oh wow do people get double figure barbel in bingley these days? I've only ever had one there...was a few years ago and it was about 4lb haha
Thank you friend for sharing your experience.
I really enjoyed watching your videos,
Thanks :)
i was part of the stocking over ten years ago , enviroment agency stocked them at kildwick bridge and myrtle park over a few years , when we stocked them they were around 6 ito 8 inch, was in flood everytime we introduced the fish. think we introduced over 5000 fish over few years
Oh wow, interesting!
Awesome episode, need more of this 👌👌👌
Plenty more urban fishing coming in the future I had a great time on this one!
Brilliant video fella. Great to see you up north too. 😊😊
You have a fantastic team around you which is evident with the equally fantastic content you consistently produce. Keep it up 👍
Thanks so much Wesley :) 👍
what a guy just does not care who comes up to him always polite seems like a top lad keep it up carl :)
Ahh thanks Bro :) all the best.
Love your videos ❤. Another great one to make my weekend.
Ahh cheers Tom, happy you enjoy them!
Hi i'm 16 almost 17 years old fisherman from Serbia🇷🇸 and i love your every clip,that fish that you caught in a cob here in Serbia is called MRENA
Hey bro
I’m a south african student studying in novi sad and i fish there too. i’ve caught just a few whitefish so far but im keen to get a nice catfish or carp here soon!
bistro and good luck
@@ahmedrawat7952 Nicccceeeee bro,so you in Novi Sad go to the lake Crni Vir that is beautiful lake and how we Serbian fisherman say BISTRO
I would never of guessed that stamp of Barbel would be in a Leeds city Centre river. This is what i love about UA-cam etc when people can meet up and share information through the powers of social media.
Oh and what about that Lake District Misty scenary... nice one to everyone involved yhe filmography was another level 👍👍
Those city fish have been eating well, you would never have guessed big fish lurked in those waters !
I know right!!
That was excellent Carl that was so worth watching 👍 lovely barbel to finish on . Some more please when the river season starts again .
Can't wait!!! Cheers Trevor! Pleased to hear that :)
So happy for you Carl! 🔥👊 I caught my first ever Barbel just before the river season closed! 😊
A day that you will never forget! There is something about Barbel, they bring out the best of us, Well Done :)
Thanks mate!! Yesss well done!!! First barbel is a special thing :)
Always makes my day better when Carl uploads 😊
Happy to hear that mate!
I live in Leeds and to hear that my favourite fishing UA-camr was in town and I missed the chance to meet him made my stomach drop to be honest, but maybe next time I guess. On a side note this is a UA-cam channel I can watch forever and never get bored or tired, keep up what your doing inspiring young angler Carl you are much appreciated
Thank you mate, massively appreciated :) sure I'll be up there again one day!
Makes my day every time u see a video on my recommend. You were the one that got me into carp fishing I love ur videos more than anything keep it up and please keep making such great content
Ahh happy to hear that, thanks mate!
@@fishwithcarl np keep it up 😊

Cracking video buddy and nice to see you heading further north in your fishing quest? …
The fish bite and fight a lot better up ere buddy
…. Friendly people , take aways and hard fighting Northern river fish …..
Just the best 👍👍😂😂… all the best buddy 👍👍😁😁
Wtf is wrong with you lot up there, your harder your shits smell worse, your fish even fight harder as if they know they are up north 😂😂😂
Great content Carl, love ❤️ Lake District so many great fishing in my younger days with friends 🎣 char fishing at Coniston, happy days. Keep them coming pal 🎣🐟🐟🐟
Thanks Clive! Stunning area!!
Excellent video as always Carl 👍👍
Thanks mate! 👍
Used to love fishing when i was a kid, got into other sports when u grew up, havnt done any recently came across the channel and continue to watch, even tho i have no time for fishing but my son wants to go. love the work keep at it
Its a great day when Carl posts a new production 😁
Have to say the guru team are so funny and full of personality. I for one am happy you are part of that team.
Thanks mate, they're a lovely lot.
Cracking films these. Well done lads. Keeping it real. 😃👍❤️
😊 ahh thank you mate!
Subscribed because of the litterpicking. I was subscribed ages ago and got annoyed that you didn’t pick some litter up, I think i commented and you replied. Glad you are not like the Ginger fisherman, who doesn’t, even when there’s plastic within reach of his net, which
really peed me off. But now you are redeemed, when they ask who should care enough to keep a river clean, if not us anglers, then who.
Well done Carl, you made a river clean up litter picker angler, who has cleared 32 tonnes so far, very happy💪💪💪🐟🦆🦋🪲🐞🐝😆♥️♥️♥️
Just amazing :D
Lots of change in that area over the last 30yrs. It’s certainly not a spot I would have ventured to when I was at Uni there all those years ago….My destination was the very rural Wharfe. Always great to see urban dangling 👌🎣❤️
Ayyy cmon! ive Been using them same meatballs for ages! Thought it was a secret 😅... Better than Spam 💯 save yourself 4quid 👏
So good!
I was thinking, damned this City is dirty, but 5 seconds later Carl grabbed a bag and a "rubbish plier" (got no idea if this is a real word) and started picking up the trash. This man is gold.
Very interesting fishing by the way and some proper fish! Well done! :)
Thanks mate, happy you enjoyed it!!
Loved the urban fishing Carl! Barbel are such a cool fish, we have nothing like it in the States.
Nice one, Carl. I always like it when you go on your little adventures it's always very interesting to see what you are going to catch, and once again, you had all different fish again, and I was so happy to see you catching the city centre barbel at the end 😁🎣🎣🎣👍
Thanks David! Always good to fishing unexpected spots :) Happy you enjoyed it!! 👍
@fishwithcarl yes I always do Carl, 😁🎣and it's a pity that boat 🚢 got a way you had on that would have broken world records 🤣🙈😁👍
😂
@@fishwithcarl 😁👍
So much work goes into your videos❤️ UA-cam is so much better than TV now days
I agree things have changed a lot. Appreciate that thank you mate, I love making them :)
Love it Carl, persisting gets you the prize your looking for mate. Great video as always. Keep up the great work buddy 😊
Thanks man, yeah it certainly helps massively to stick at it! I'm not as patient as I'd like to be though haha 👍
@@fishwithcarl I don’t think any of us are mate. It’s a vertue that few of us have nailed down 😂😂
😂
Fry your span lightly before hand boys it toughens it up an realeases mega oil might be worth a try to hold on the hair for longer too
This guy isn't capable of making a bad video 🤷♂️ well done Carl, already looking forward to the next one ❤️👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Haha thanks mate!
Fantastic video Carl! Thoroughly enjoyed that! 🎣🎣
Cheers Aaron! I'm glad :)
Carl I'm loving the no Swan policy you have in your videos 😂😂.
Nice barbell.
😂 Thanks man!
Awesome vid mate gonna go back a few years and watch all the oldies, hope you and alex are both well.✌
P.S whens the TV show coming? i reckon it would be a hit..📈
That's what you get for diligence litter picking and a harbinger bream..
Interesting place those city slicker fish.
Fish well Eat well
Very special place on there Carl, you are lucky to have somebody showing you the spots
Yeah super grateful to those lads :)

Ahh I'm glad 😊 All the best with your fishing mate!
@@fishwithcarl I need all the luck I can get lmao 🤣
Cracking video once again carl 👌👍🎣🎣🎣
Cheers Sean! :)
aye in my city Carl with layton I'd of loved to if popped down into town and had a natter with you I hope you had a good journey up here and our
waters to your liking and you didnt have too much trouble navigating our hurrendous city roads 😂 its awful driving round town I hope you come back and catch some of the nice big barbel it has to offer all the best mate 👍🏻
Sat waiting for my car wheels to be aligned 😂 perfect timing carl 👌
😂 Nice!
Would be nice to see you go back to the city when it's warmer like the lad said hope you do mate 👍🏻
It’s mad what we can catch on baits from the local shops and supermarkets in my teens I swore by using the tinned hotdogs dried out the night before on some kitchen towel to toughen them up caught many a good fish on them these days i tend to use pretty much pellets and boilies but always have the odd tin of meat and corn handy I couldn’t fish with those baits you were using as the full lot would be gone before I even got a rod out 😂😂
Another banger from Carl!
❤
Hyped for this one
😊
Barcelona is such good song Carl
I'd not played it for years until last night when I dug my vinyl out for a mix. Coincidence strikes again! 😊
Reminds me of when I used to fish the Thames in Central London, back in the 1970-80! Caught lots of different species apart from Barbel! Keep meaning to try my old spots again one day.
Ahh nice!!
absolutely amazing video as always, ive been trying to catch a barbel for a while but im struggling alot lol
Amazing content keep up the great work
Cheers mate!
You are are a "Real Hero Carl" for fishing in Central Leeds in the city centre overnight, I would never be that brave,,, P:S " A Real Hero" or a "Reel Hero",,This time The "Pun" Was Intended, if you remember our last conversation 😀
😂
You can’t keep a good Smith down 😃⭐️
There's a nice bit of flatter, lower bank fishing below "Clarence Dock" on the Right bank looking downstream & below the Royal Armouries. A 2.5 to 3 Metre landing net does just fine. Not so many Barbel in this section, but some big Chub & other silvers & nice easy fishing.
Great watch again Carl 👍👍
Cheers Robert! :)
Welcome to Leeds pal! Spent plenty of time on that river, hope you enjoyed the northern hospitality!
Massively 😊 thanks man!
So impressive from a city centre river that doesn’t look at all like it holds fish , I use to walk along there when I visited with work and couldn’t imagine catching a fish from there
Yes Carl well done my old China plate. Some awesome fish and tips as all ways . Big respect to the editors the x factor clip got me busting up . Big love cee-jay 🎣🎣🎣🎣🎣👊
Leeds city centre, fair play. Nice to see local lads on it and you fishing with them too. That first spot looked well dodgy at night mind you. What a scenery change though, to the green fields and snowy peaks with misty lakes 👌. I’m not sure why but I expected the Leeds river fish to be damaged or manky in some way but they all looked fin perfect. Another lovely watch 👍
Thanks mate yeah they were immaculate and very healthy fish!! 👍
