Keep them coming Carl. So looking forward to seeing you build your channel around yourself. Keeping us guessing and hanging on. Love your videos and narrative.
Awe mate, there has been a lot for you to get your head round (and the same for Alex as well). At first when I heard about Alex and yourself going down different paths, I did feel a sense of loss, because I spent a lot of time during the lock-downs watching your videos and they did help my sanity. Now I'm thinking I've gained a channel in the form of Just Alex. Brilliant video as always, and I can't help thinking this but "Fish with Carl and Omi?". Our central heating went down for about 10 days but it was not all gloom and doom though as my wife, myself and our cat snuggled up under/on the duvet and watched a few fishing videos and a fair wack of midsomer murders lol. Right, I'm away to see what Alex is up to now... All the best guys.
After ten years of living in Australia seeing this video makes me wish I was back home. fishing on one of my old local waters in winter just watching the world past by in my biviy, bliss!
Hit the nail on the head about carp fishing. It's so tranquil and offers a different type of pleasure that the thrill and constant dynamism of lure fishing. Both are amazing but in their own unique ways.
Love your videos! Many of them take me back to when I was a kid, fishing with my ol fishing buddies. Most of them are dead now, some alive but no longer fishing and moved away. I, on the other hand, am still fishing the same lakes, creeks and ponds I did back then. I hit the surf sometimes as well. I have taught hundreds if not thousands of people to fish in my day. Some as kids and they have seen me decades later and told their kids. shake hands with the man who taught your daddy to fish. It is a awesome feeling to have been a part of so many lives, just as YOU are doing with your videos. Carry on and your lady makes a very nice impact on your overall story. Best to you my friend. cheers from CA.
I’ve just got into fishing and I’m gravitating towards carp fishing as like you said it’s relaxing n you don’t have to keep watching the rod. It’s an amazing hobby. My friends don’t understand fishing, they say all you do is sit there n wait, but it’s a different type of waiting. You’re enjoying the nature n the suspense is overwhelming.
This video (like you said) paints a picture of what carp fishing is all about for me. Secret lake, cosy under the bivvy with 1 of your favourite people, no one else around. AND your catching fishing...perfect session. I often describe carp fishing as, like taking a big breathe of fresh crisp air and just exhaling and feel the relaxation wash over you after being stressed all week. Keep up the good work!!
First fishing video in a year or two, glad to see you two still going strong and look forward to seeing the end product of the garden make-over. Lovely Carps u2.
One of the best videos I've seen in a while. That feeling of peace and tranquility, being able to slow everything down for a while is so precious. To do it with that special lady must be brilliant - what a fisherman (woman).
I'm a french angler, I discovered your video last week, it's a pleasure to watch your videos cause we can imagine to be with you, you are so natural, it's cool to share your passion. thanks to you and Omi. (in french) bravo !! et surtout continu a partager.
Omi getting more confident with landing the fish 🙂 Nice to have a fishing buddy and wow all that stress with the Kitchen and heating .Even the NHS is advising fishing as therapeutic now though to relieve stress
Yeah she's doing well! It's amazing that fishing is being recommended by the NHS :) Anything that is not a pill, and gets people out into nature is huge progress.
Doctors and therapists are now recommending that being outdoors and amongst nature is good for people's mental well-being. Well, who would have thought it? I could have told them that forty years ago!
Haha yes, think we all know deep down it is good for us. Modern life has detached us from knowing that it helps, and we wonder why we don't feel so good! Fishing is amazing :)
Beautiful video and a great start to the new era. Delightful to see you back out on the water’s edge. Also loved the reflections on the unique nature of carp fishing.
Oh Carl, I'm with you son. You boys are the same ages as my own two boys who I love deeply. They, sadly, area not fishermen, they are both music producers but like you and Alex, after a long time working together they have chosen to go in different directions within their chosen careers. They love and respect eachothers life choices, of which I am also very proud. They're now heading in different directions but, that's ok, really. We are all as close as ever. Things have changed a bit but, in essence, it's still the same. As my two UA-cam adopties , I will be watching you both with baited breath and praying for all four of you to simply be the best people you can be and, continue to inspire those who follow you (with good reason). John
Cheers John :) that's kind. Deeply appreciate your message and well wishes. Exactly that, glad to hear, got to be our own people, and love and respect each other's wishes to keep a healthy relationship and bond. Totally agree :)
I actually fished this 'secret lake' my entire childhood, and even caught the same fish I see you catching throughout your videos (even from 8 years ago) - Absolutely mad to see anyone else posting fishing videos on this little gem. I won't give away where it is here don't worry, I never even did to my closest fishing mates! Glad to see it's still being fished. Nice one!
New era: Naomi and Carl fishing😂😂. Nice video! Always a pleasure watching this. Its the bright light of the day when out on the bank for several days. And it is spot on what you describe about carp fishing, it is an escape from the everydays stressfull long days at work. True meditation. Thanks for the consistent good content.🥳🥳🥳
Cracking video Carl and soooo nice to see Omi with her big beautiful smile. You guys looked like you really enjoyed your day and that is what fishing is all about. Non anglers just don't seem to understand how after having such a crappy week, with the leak plus the boiler problem, you can go fishing and enjoy yourself so much. All I can say is "it's their loss". Again cracking vid and great chemistry. Keep it up mate.
Cheers Paul! Appreciate it :) was a great day, even in the wind and rain! Makes for feeling very alive doesn't it, and always helps to gain perspective on everything and feel better :)
Your videos are just incredible! They always inspire me to go out fishing and they make my day all the time! I really love your koi videos, as they are my favorite type of fish. Thanks for not only making my day, but for making other people’s days as well! I love your content, and keep the videos coming!
Thank you Carl for posting a great video, I enjoy listening to your frank comments about people's attitudes towards your sport. Lots of respect from Australia.
Cracking video this. I love the smaller (but perfectly formed) carp just as much as the big ones. I tested positive for Covid yesterday, so instead of being on the bank I'm self isolating. Thank you for giving me something to watch so I can get some experience of fishing this weekend!
Brilliant Video can totally relate, I work as an IT Engineer at times gets so stressful just recently returning to fishing has helped me learn to cope with the stresses, recently had a session at Risby Lakes and the heavens opened sitting under the Brolley the sound of the rain on it just unwound a horrific week, keep them coming, please.
Never give up and keep up the good work!!! Really enjoy the adventures on your channel! ... and the first carp from Omi was beautifull! This secret lake is stunning. Cheers
So glad your carrying on Carl. Your videos have helped so many people and it would have been such a shame if the channel had stopped altogether. Keep going mate!
Hi Carl, I love fishing and used to go alot but since I am 16 now I got a job and it took most if my time of the weekend up and I wasnt that bothered abt fishing as much any more. However that almost explanation of u like, of how its calming and relaxing almost reminded me of the feeling i get when i am fishing and how much I love it. So i am very grateful for that and hope u keep the amazing videos coming. I hope i can meet u,Om and your brother one day as u are such inspiring and amazing people and are my favriout youtoubers. Sending much love to you all and your brothers new channel and all the best wishes there are.
Thank so much for the kind message - appreciate it. Glad you were reminded of that feeling :) Life can sometimes take us away from the thing that we love, and having it back in our lives, even in a small way can be a great help in making time to find that time to relax and get away for a bit. All the best mate ❤️ Big love
I found you and Alec when I was looking for videos of Weirwood resivor and since then I have found out so much about fishing and I just love watching your journeys through life. I hope life gets easier for you, I’m sure it will.
Sometimes you just need those days off to regroup, relax and enjoy the company of the people you love. At times it can feel that the world is just crashing down on your shoulders but days like these can supercharge you back to full, ready to endure more of the same (but hopefully not!). Thanks for the video Carl and Omi, wish you all the best and can't wait for more :)
Carl your absolutely spot on with Carp fishing. Iv gone through quiet a few blanks and it’s far different from fishing a normal match fishery where you simply pull them out one after the other. Carp fishing is so therapeutic. Just being outside and finding the fish is part of it and getting them results particularly hard fishing during the winter is so rewarding!!!
Fishing for myself is about unwinding after a busy week, carp fishing is unwinding after a busy week fishing. Which ever you do, it is much better idea then sitting watching TV. Great almost philosophical video loved it.
Man, you nailed it with that introspective on bottom fishing for carp. I had this EXACT same thought today, finally getting around to float fishing with mealworms and nightcrawlers for the first time. I'm so used to highly active forms of fishing - fly fishing especially, or using lures that require constant retrieval speeds or actions like jigging or jerking - that initially I was bored to tears standing there staring at a little float, willing it to bob even once. Didn't help that the bite had switched off about an hour before I got on the water. But after awhile, I acclimated to the surroundings and started really clearing my head and just relaxing. Well done, Carl!
Cheers! Yeah totally :) it can feel uncomfortable at first. But after a while of sticking with it, the mind does finally settle and clear, and the body relax. Having that focus on something else, while also doing nothing but look out at the world can invite that calm to come in once the initial agitation of lack of stimulation, and/or any intrusive thoughts/ worries have passed haha!
Very old and wild looking carp you have there Carl. Those not clued up about wild carp probably would say (Yes but they're small) they really are beautiful though and fish to be proud of. They are pretty much the same as the original carp brought to Britain from the Danube Delta hundreds of years ago and what our carp of today were bred from. They fight like bone fish and are great fun on an avon style rod. Well done Omi on landing that one on her own. I've seen plenty of anglers mess up playing them in to the net. Keep the videos coming, they really are enjoyable and now we have two different types of video to watch with Alex's also. Don't get too stressed out making them. Life is for living and enjoying!!
Yes this one fought!! :) Love the feeling. They are stunning in this lake. Agreed, small can still be amazing to catch. Thank you Matthew, she loved it. And cheers for the kind words, it is very much appreciated.
Nice to see you back out on the bank and into a few fish, and fishing with Carl and omi could be the new chapter you're looking for right now as you very rearly see couples out waiting around in the mud for the pleasure of a fish to join them on the bank, look forward to to your next video
"you can't swim in the air, it doesn't work" 🤣 made me laugh, he seemed very lively! Great video :) the bonus of you and Alex now working separately: double the videos to watch 😃
Everything always seems to go wrong all at once doesn't it lol. Well done Om for getting that carp in by yourself. It's good to de-stress every now and again when things get overwhelming, your mental health needs it to keep a balance. All the best for the future on this channel.
Great to see you on the bank again totally understand what you were saying about the difference in attitude on carp fishing to other types fishing but will say the best part of this video was the look on omi's face when she caut the final fish love the content keep them coming carl and omi
I agree with what you said about carp fishing. I am a special needs teaching assistant and have a hectic family life. Getting on the bank, for me, is such a relaxing time. It's my way to decompress, even if i do blank lol. Love the video and look forward to many many more.
Couldn't agree more when you have a hectic work and family life. Sometimes the fact yiu get on the bank to recharge your batteries and just what the world go by is just what is needed. Great work on the video mate. Absolutely loved it. Just what fishing is all about. I recently spent 3 hrs fishing on a local river with my 4 year old daughter, we caught a 5lb chub she was so excited and took the pictures for me. That will be one of my best fishing memories ever.
I always get envious from other people, getting everything. But not with you, you achieved everything on your own. I enjoy watching you and your lovely Omi. Must be amazing to be sharing such fishing trips with someone you love. Now I sound envious again. Keep on doing wat you do. From a Dutch fan
Thank you so much ❤️ Appreciate it. Yeah it was hard work, and it still is. But it's so worth it to share these times with so many, and hopefully inspire others to fish, and get out and enjoy nature :) it's amazing to do, and I never take any of it for granted.
Awesome video! I love Carl and Alex videos.. but I also like you going out with your love Omi. It’s wholesome and genuine and I ultimately would love to go out with me lady to do some fishing! Cheers and keep releasing the bangers!!
Great video, beautiful carps. You’re right carp fishing can be relaxing when you’re stressed. Keep on making those video’s, they are very enjoyable to watch. 👍🏻
Keep them coming Carl love your video and I think it is so nice for you and omi to spend time together great to see both of you guys enjoyed it please keep the videos coming 👍
Dude, believe me, as someone that spends 12 hours on a brackish river dock to land some catfish - totally relate. And it is refreshing, it's the only time I can doing very little in terms of like busy work and not stress over being "not busy". Just sucks I'm in a bit of a bind financially so I can't do it right now, but it is nice when I do get the chance to.
Yayyyyy aww I absolutely love when my husband takes me out fishing 🎣 to our favorite places! We’ve made so many great memories on the shoreline of an epic fishing adventure! Our kids have now gone on to make their own memories in those same holes! I loved seeing you guys out today making your own memories, off on your own adventure! Great video!
Ahhh that's beautiful! Cheers Melissa, appreciate it :) Yes, that's what is it! Totally agree. It is having adventures together isn't it :) ...not much that is better than spending time outdoors in simplicity.
I've been following for around 5 to 7 years now and I love the way you captivate the audience and you've helped a lot through the depression inspiring me to pi k the rods back up and hit the bank get a job as a bailiff where I thought wasn't possible taught us all along the way just wanted to say a massive thanks and I miss Alex but proud he could take the balls to start his own journey ❤️ Sorry I have adhd and autism so don't hate the msg but I know you won't reply KEEP THE GOOD WORK UP CARL 🙃
Great video Carl as always ! I’m looking forward to more of you n the mrs,also can’t wait to see your first collab with Alex as individuals ! Reckon your gonna beat him as he’s too busy fannying about with mushrooms 🤣
Great video Carl. I totally understand your explanation of carp fishing too, very relatable. Keep up the good work, the content is really appreciated! Looking forward to seeing the koi pond and all future videos from you mate.
That was what I call carp fishing, and catching. Great to see you catching such lovely carp, there is little I enjoy more these days, now that I have given up that other style of carp fishing and no more sit behind a battery of rods with a huge pile of tackle.
I've fished for many species over the years but other than perch fishing with a float nothing beats carp Fishing imo...keep up the good work...some lovely wild looking carp especially that first chunk that omni caught 👍
I love it ,I sit there and do what I normally would do at home ..like watching Netflix with a few cans of beer or read and relax all while I wait for a monster to rip of on the delkim !! RELAXING at its finest !
Keep them coming Carl. So looking forward to seeing you build your channel around yourself. Keeping us guessing and hanging on. Love your videos and narrative.
Thank you so much!! Appreciate this :)
Yeahhhh, we love seeing Carl and Omi fishing together! ❤
I can never get over how amazing this lake is
It's a special one :)
Awe mate, there has been a lot for you to get your head round (and the same for Alex as well). At first when I heard about Alex and yourself going down different paths, I did feel a sense of loss, because I spent a lot of time during the lock-downs watching your videos and they did help my sanity.

After ten years of living in Australia seeing this video makes me wish I was back home. fishing on one of my old local waters in winter just watching the world past by in my biviy, bliss!
Yeah unfortunately here in aus we don't get this.
not the same mate isit i did 6week in aus 10 year ago mainly carp fishing
@@stephenbrooklyn7945 yes I do agree the fishing here is awesome, but I would like to learn the art to carp catching, it seems very intense.
@@stephenbrooklyn7945 i love to wach fish as my hubby tony love fishing for carp
Ahhh wow, hopefully you get back here one day and get out there again for a session :)
Hit the nail on the head about carp fishing. It's so tranquil and offers a different type of pleasure that the thrill and constant dynamism of lure fishing. Both are amazing but in their own unique ways.
Absolutely :)
Love your videos! Many of them take me back to when I was a kid, fishing with my ol fishing buddies. Most of them are dead now, some alive but no longer fishing and moved away. I, on the other hand, am still fishing the same lakes, creeks and ponds I did back then. I hit the surf sometimes as well. I have taught hundreds if not thousands of people to fish in my day.

It is a awesome feeling to have been a part of so many lives, just as YOU are doing with your videos. Carry on and your lady makes a very nice impact on your overall story. Best to you my friend. cheers from CA.
Never had an interest in fishing for carp especially the way you guys do it, but your videos are beautiful works of art that are worth watching.
I love how she says “your in already “ and he says “ yes very small “ and she says “ your very quick “😂
Great fishing 👍
Wow, thanks so much :) Really appreciate it.
Same here
I’ve just got into fishing and I’m gravitating towards carp fishing as like you said it’s relaxing n you don’t have to keep watching the rod. It’s an amazing hobby. My friends don’t understand fishing, they say all you do is sit there n wait, but it’s a different type of waiting. You’re enjoying the nature n the suspense is overwhelming.
This video (like you said) paints a picture of what carp fishing is all about for me. Secret lake, cosy under the bivvy with 1 of your favourite people, no one else around. AND your catching fishing...perfect session.
I often describe carp fishing as, like taking a big breathe of fresh crisp air and just exhaling and feel the relaxation wash over you after being stressed all week.
Keep up the good work!!
Yesss, exactly :) Thanks so much Chris!!
First fishing video in a year or two, glad to see you two still going strong and look forward to seeing the end product of the garden make-over.
Lovely Carps u2.
Brought many smiles to my face, thanks Carl and Omi.
Aww glad to hear it mate!! You're so welcome :)
the happiness on omi's face when she lands a fish is a joy to be hold
One of the best videos I've seen in a while. That feeling of peace and tranquility, being able to slow everything down for a while is so precious. To do it with that special lady must be brilliant - what a fisherman (woman).
Exactly that :) Cheers Pete. Yes, I feel very lucky and never take it for granted.
Love that you handed Omi your rod when you hooked up with the bigger fish - what a gentleman👍
Good luck with your fishing journey Carl all the best gonna be watching every video !!👍🏼
Thanks so much!! Appreciate it :)
I'm a french angler, I discovered your video last week, it's a pleasure to watch your videos cause we can imagine to be with you, you are so natural, it's cool to share your passion. thanks to you and Omi. (in french) bravo !! et surtout continu a partager.
A really honest video showing your relationship with Omi, fishing, and yourself. Really enjoyed this video Carl!
Glad to hear you enjoyed it Rhys! :) Cheers. Appreciate it.
Carl and Omi - you are a great team and make some superb video's together - keep them coming
Thank so much! Appreciate it :)
Great video as always!
Cheers Jay :)

Cracking video Carl and soooo nice to see Omi with her big beautiful smile. You guys looked like you really enjoyed your day and that is what fishing is all about.

Hello!! Ahh you are very welcome. Glad to hear. Appreciate that, thank you mate.

Cracking video this. I love the smaller (but perfectly formed) carp just as much as the big ones.
I tested positive for Covid yesterday, so instead of being on the bank I'm self isolating. Thank you for giving me something to watch so I can get some experience of fishing this weekend!
Agreed! Hope you better soon mate ❤️
Chilling by the secret pond.. perfect antidote...lovely colour tones on those fish...
Exactly :)
O my god man I’m so glad that fishing continues! Thank you Carl!
Always Sean! Haha, you're welcome mate.
You two make such a nice couple, so happy that you both found each other..and both enjoy fishing a harmonious relationship
This is the stuff of truth. This video says it all. Just relaxing near the water with your significant other. Enjoying the moment
Glad you enjoyed it, fully agree. Thank you!
Brilliant Video can totally relate, I work as an IT Engineer at times gets so stressful just recently returning to fishing has helped me learn to cope with the stresses, recently had a session at Risby Lakes and the heavens opened sitting under the Brolley the sound of the rain on it just unwound a horrific week, keep them coming, please.
Ahh it certainly does, fishing is a welcome chance to reset and let the stresses ease. Thank you Mark, I'm gad you enjoyed it.
Never give up and keep up the good work!!! Really enjoy the adventures on your channel! ... and the first carp from Omi was beautifull! This secret lake is stunning. Cheers
So glad your carrying on Carl. Your videos have helped so many people and it would have been such a shame if the channel had stopped altogether. Keep going mate!
Hi Carl,
I love fishing and used to go alot but since I am 16 now I got a job and it took most if my time of the weekend up and I wasnt that bothered abt fishing as much any more. However that almost explanation of u like, of how its calming and relaxing almost reminded me of the feeling i get when i am fishing and how much I love it. So i am very grateful for that and hope u keep the amazing videos coming. I hope i can meet u,Om and your brother one day as u are such inspiring and amazing people and are my favriout youtoubers. Sending much love to you all and your brothers new channel and all the best wishes there are.
Thank so much for the kind message - appreciate it. Glad you were reminded of that feeling :) Life can sometimes take us away from the thing that we love, and having it back in our lives, even in a small way can be a great help in making time to find that time to relax and get away for a bit. All the best mate ❤️ Big love
I found you and Alec when I was looking for videos of Weirwood resivor and since then I have found out so much about fishing and I just love watching your journeys through life. I hope life gets easier for you, I’m sure it will.
Thank you, appreciate it
Sometimes you just need those days off to regroup, relax and enjoy the company of the people you love.
At times it can feel that the world is just crashing down on your shoulders but days like these can supercharge you back to full, ready to endure more of the same (but hopefully not!).
Thanks for the video Carl and Omi, wish you all the best and can't wait for more :)

Watched your channel for years. You and ginger chris are the best.
Thanks Dug! Cheers for all the years of support :)
Absolutely brilliant FairPlay, let’s hope this continues!!!
Really nice to See Naomi on the bank again with her smile. Great video you two.
Cheers Pete! :)
Stunning once again... great that you and Omi had some quality time with some real pretty golden commons!
Thank you! It was a surprisingly good session considering the weather! :)
Very old and wild looking carp you have there Carl. Those not clued up about wild carp probably would say (Yes but they're small) they really are beautiful though and fish to be proud of.

Another incredible video! Keep them coming Carl!
Thanks so much Dan!
I can’t believe your bobbins don’t Mach! That one made me laugh lol😂😂
Haha!
😂😂I’ve used oddmatching bits for years catches the same fish just drives people with ocd insane lol😂😂😂
Yeah I thought it might!
Nice to see you back out on the bank and into a few fish, and fishing with Carl and omi could be the new chapter you're looking for right now as you very rearly see couples out waiting around in the mud for the pleasure of a fish to join them on the bank, look forward to to your next video
Thanks so much Neil ❤️

Cheers Wesley! Great to hear that ❤️ Yeah that place is amazing for a Winter bite! Even when the weather seems too grim it's always worth it :)
Smile generator….loved your vid….. good luck to you Carl & Omi…..❤️👍
Must've been a tough few weeks mate. Something you'll look back on with a warm smile one day. Here's to many more great videos like this one.
Yeah totally :) definitely came through in good spirits though, time on the bank always help to reset, destress and gain perspective. Cheers Bob!
Great video Carl and Omi! I Love your carp videos, looking forward for some more carp fishing and fish keeping videos!

Love the content both you and Alex make! keep it coming! look forward to what is to come

"you can't swim in the air, it doesn't work" 🤣 made me laugh, he seemed very lively! Great video :) the bonus of you and Alex now working separately: double the videos to watch 😃

You're a great little team, you two.

Was great to see those fish they are stunning and great to see omi back out on the bank.
Looking forward to seeing future videos.
Thanks so much Albie! :)
Everything always seems to go wrong all at once doesn't it lol. Well done Om for getting that carp in by yourself. It's good to de-stress every now and again when things get overwhelming, your mental health needs it to keep a balance. All the best for the future on this channel.
Totally agree ❤️ Thanks so much Vinny, appreciate it.
Great to see you on the bank again totally understand what you were saying about the difference in attitude on carp fishing to other types fishing but will say the best part of this video was the look on omi's face when she caut the final fish love the content keep them coming carl and omi
❤️ Loved that part fo the day too. Always amazing that joy on someone's face. Glad to hear, cheers Paul :)
So nice seeing you both enjoying yourself so,keep em coming,and good luck with your new channel
Fishing is so diverse and healing! People should go fishing, feel the nature and never make war.
Yes!!
Great filming ! Thanks for sharing , nice fish can't wait to get out myself , ! Look forward to next film !!
I agree with what you said about carp fishing. I am a special needs teaching assistant and have a hectic family life. Getting on the bank, for me, is such a relaxing time. It's my way to decompress, even if i do blank lol. Love the video and look forward to many many more.
Couldn't agree more when you have a hectic work and family life. Sometimes the fact yiu get on the bank to recharge your batteries and just what the world go by is just what is needed. Great work on the video mate. Absolutely loved it. Just what fishing is all about.
I recently spent 3 hrs fishing on a local river with my 4 year old daughter, we caught a 5lb chub she was so excited and took the pictures for me. That will be one of my best fishing memories ever.
Exactly :) That's amazing Mark
I always get envious from other people, getting everything.
But not with you, you achieved everything on your own.
I enjoy watching you and your lovely Omi.
Must be amazing to be sharing such fishing trips with someone you love.
Now I sound envious again.
Keep on doing wat you do.

Thank you so much ❤️ Appreciate it. Yeah it was hard work, and it still is. But it's so worth it to share these times with so many, and hopefully inspire others to fish, and get out and enjoy nature :) it's amazing to do, and I never take any of it for granted.
Everyone needs a day off from the world every now and then Carl! Wise words too about the benefits of the outdoors! Thanks for another great video 👍👍
Very true :) I'm learning this much more these days!
The colours of those fish were just stunning. Go back there soon!
Will be back there soon! :)

Getttinnn fav time of the week❤️👏
Dude, believe me, as someone that spends 12 hours on a brackish river dock to land some catfish - totally relate.
And it is refreshing, it's the only time I can doing very little in terms of like busy work and not stress over being "not busy".
Just sucks I'm in a bit of a bind financially so I can't do it right now, but it is nice when I do get the chance to.
Yayyyyy aww I absolutely love when my husband takes me out fishing 🎣 to our favorite places! We’ve made so many great memories on the shoreline of an epic fishing adventure! Our kids have now gone on to make their own memories in those same holes! I loved seeing you guys out today making your own memories, off on your own adventure! Great video!
Ahhh that's beautiful! Cheers Melissa, appreciate it :) Yes, that's what is it! Totally agree. It is having adventures together isn't it :) ...not much that is better than spending time outdoors in simplicity.
I've been following for around 5 to 7 years now and I love the way you captivate the audience and you've helped a lot through the depression inspiring me to pi k the rods back up and hit the bank get a job as a bailiff where I thought wasn't possible taught us all along the way just wanted to say a massive thanks and I miss Alex but proud he could take the balls to start his own journey ❤️
Sorry I have adhd and autism so don't hate the msg but I know you won't reply KEEP THE GOOD WORK UP CARL 🙃
Great video Carl as always ! I’m looking forward to more of you n the mrs,also can’t wait to see your first collab with Alex as individuals ! Reckon your gonna beat him as he’s too busy fannying about with mushrooms 🤣
well done Carl nice video, nothing better than sitting fishing with your loved one, what more do you need, thank you, 👍👍❤, and well done om,
Thanks so much James :) You're welcome. Couldn't agree more.
Great video Carl. I totally understand your explanation of carp fishing too, very relatable. Keep up the good work, the content is really appreciated! Looking forward to seeing the koi pond and all future videos from you mate.
❤️ Cheers mate! Appreciate it. Glad to hear :) First pond instalment coming soon!!
Such an awesome video Carl and Omi - well done - amazing fishing!!!
Thank you!! :)
That was what I call carp fishing, and catching. Great to see you catching such lovely carp, there is little I enjoy more these days, now that I have given up that other style of carp fishing and no more sit behind a battery of rods with a huge pile of tackle.
❤️ Cheers Neil :) never gets old
I've fished for many species over the years but other than perch fishing with a float nothing beats carp Fishing imo...keep up the good work...some lovely wild looking carp especially that first chunk that omni caught 👍
Thanks Gavin :)
I love it ,I sit there and do what I normally would do at home ..like watching Netflix with a few cans of beer or read and relax all while I wait for a monster to rip of on the delkim !! RELAXING at its finest !
Yes Ash :)
Good to see you both. Great video.
Great video as always with you and Ommi Carl all the best 👍👍
