- Mike and Mark head off on an adventure in search of freedom while fishing some Public Waters in France. What a trip it turns out to be, Mike nearly lost a finger 👆, they both catch COVID but despite the struggle it comes good in the end with a few BIG CARP. It's raw at times but it was a trip of mixed emotions, an angling memory we'll never forget.

Above and beyond boys well done for carrying on.That's why I love your vids you show it as it is warts and all.....brilliant.

Great film guys🔥👌
Absolutely nailed that intro Mark. Echoes my own feelings and thoughts exactly.
It's refreshing to see just how hard our sport can be!👍
I think it's easy to see the best bits in films mate but as you know that never tells the true story behind the success I guess. Glad you enjoyed it mate.
Great video chaps , looked like a gruelling few days but well worth it with them two fish , that cut looked nasty!!
Well done 👏🏻 and as usual looking forward to the next video 👍🏻
Cheers Jon, yes it was one to remember mate thats for sure!
Great watch, warts and all.
Cheers mate, glad it was watchable :)
Brilliant effort
Absolutely brilliant lads, thanks for making these films ❤
No worries Jamie, it was a bit raw at times but glad it was watchable.
Listened to the podcast of the trip and the tales of calamity made me smile at the time. Fair play for your resilience that was rewarded in the end, I would have been back home by then😊😊.
Cheers mate, I tell you what I wanted to go home at numerous stages in that trip but for some crazy reason we kept going!
That was awesome lads what a adventure thank you . All the best Del
Pleasure mate, thanks for the kind feedback

The mouth on that fish was insane!!
Crazy Crayfish hunter! Those French, wild publics venue carp are so cool!
Fair play boys team worm right there!
Team work 🤣
Watched this having tested positive with Covid about 5mins ago. I can imagine the extreme discomfort and although carp fishing is awesome I bet you both wanted to be home home - after the second fish anyway!
Absolutely mate! we wanted to leave but couldn't give up!
Get in boys .... dug deep on what looked like a very hard trip ... stinking colds and severed fingers (not the smartest move with braid) lol .. however effort equals rewards. Good watch 👍
Cheers Toby, glad you enjoyed it mate.
Was looking forward to this after listening to the podcast. Fair play to you both.
Cheers Spencer, yes it was a rather testing trip but hopefully we've got the bad luck out the way now and learnt loads to take onto the next trip.
Great video! I really wanted you to catch from that canal at the end!😊
So did we Sam, I heard an absolute hippo flop over in the night near us but sadly it wasn't to be! always next time.
Well that was a journey and a half!
Hope the hands healed OK. Nice to see a real life vlog, not just the instagram style everythings perfect. . And Cracking carp 👌
Thanks mate, yes we like to record all the good and sometimes the bad bits, its how it happens most of the time for us to be fair lol
@Baitworks Hahaha I can relate in my vlogs, just not to that extreme 😳😅
Fair play gents. Got to say, you're better men than me. If I'd felt that rough I would have checked myself into a hotel! I'll stick to the waterpark 😉. Gareth
We survived! lol
Stressed me out watching this... 🤣
hahahaha we survived!
10/10 lads for effort …… mental every thing against you but you had a few fish …. Hard core 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
cheers mate, it was testing for sure! back with better luck next time mate.
Well done guys, defiantly a big dose of man flu… lol! Hope everything comes together and a more enjoyable this year 👌
Cheers Jamie, glad you enjoyed it mate, better luck next time I hope hey!
Always enjoy both of your videos guys, nice to see you fish together. Really enjoyed the video 👍
Cheers Guy, yes we ironically don't fish together that much but we'll try and do more of that this year mate
@@BaitworksTVI look forward to it 👍
Watching this made me feel ill 😂😂 but in all seriousness fair play for carrying on guys true dedication 👌🏻
Hahaha sorry Stu, not as ill as we felt mate i bet :) lol
🤙
Great watch. What’s the opening sound track please
Another great video guys . A proper carp adventure is never without its ups and downs. It’s all part of the journey. Throughly enjoyable watch . Keep them coming. “Other baits work but baitworks harder”.
#ITWORKS ⚙️
Cheers Joey, glad you enjoyed it mate! all the best
How’s the hand 🤚 now .amazing 🤩 video again best bait on the market
cheers Lee glad you enjoyed it mate. The hand is ok now, I have a few scars to remind myself of Mark lol but we'll survive mate.
Fantastic video can you share the location of these public lakes or not hope your both better now 👍🏻
Glad you enjoyed it Michael, out of respect we'd not name venues mate but if you fancy that sort of adventure google earth is all you need and the best part of it is not knowing everything. All the best
Another lovely put together film mike👍👍👍 Effort equals reward, well done mark👍💪
cheers mate, a bit rough round the edges but we got something to savour in the end mate. Hope all is well your end mate
@@BaitworksTV rough and ready, shows the highs and lows, warts and all. Tough out there, so hats off for the perciverance👍 Yes mate all good this end👌
Just trek down to Cassien next time 😉
Now you have started to go to France, does that mean you will start offering larger sized boilies?
We’ve always had the big baits planned for this year mate so yes we’ll be offering larger baits soon Matt.
What in the wet lettuce have I just watched made fishing look like hell nothing but moaning throughout 🤣🤦♂️
That week was Hell lol
@@BaitworksTV 😂😂😂
Clean your lens/filter mate 😊
Indeed mate! Sadly only realised when we watched it back, mud got everywhere! Wasn’t going to release the Vlog but thought why not, a bit of mud on the lense and all 😂
Seriously dudes, if I can make a suggestion. Never go out together in a boat. You'd be amazed at just how often tackle gets nicked that way. That would be another disaster you don't need.
Indeed mate, at that stage we only had the boat out and a few bits. The rest was all safe in the van mate 💪
Rural france mate, it's not London. You can't live your life in fear. I fish solo and ive never felt worried by that senario
@ piscatorian, that's what everyone says until it happens ... it only takes once.
I've been bivvied up and a venue bailiff was in peg next-door and he had his scales, sling and mat and barrow nicked one night, luckily I've not had that happen to me, and after that year I fished large pits alone around Yorkshire and always got through unscathed, but I know many lads that have lost everything outside there bivvy in the middle of the night. 😖
@@technomickdocumentalist2495 I know of 2 cases where it's happened. Lads have gone out in a boat to drop rigs or play fish and come back to an empty bivvy. I'm not saying how likely it is to happen, I'm saying it can and does happen. But if there is any possibility of avoiding it, then why not.
Atrocious diets when I lived in Britain, never been that sick eating normal food. Crisps aren’t food lads.
Had the makings of a great film - the sound quality made me can it - what's the point of segments of speaking to camera with no sound - i appreciate it was a gruelling trip but as a carper with severe hearing loss that struggles at the best of times the sound quality just p@£$ed me off.
Sorry Andy, I’m unsure what bits had no sound? As far as I’m aware if we talk to the camera the sounds always on mate.
@@BaitworksTV Embarrassingly my bad...... Sorry guys. Some of your dialogue to camera was obviously not stereo sound and was only on the right hand channel....unbeknownst to me the MacBook i was watching on had a faulty right hand speaker so no sound was played on that side - hence the silence! my shite hearing and I couldn't tell it wasn't working. 🤦♂🤦♂🤦♂
@@dfc70 No worries mate, you had me worried for a minute lol
Hope you guys realise that you just cant fish anywhere on most lakes and you were in the out of bounds area on the first lake you fished if the garde de peche come down ( which they regularly do on that lake) you would of got a €450 fine and also fined for every rods that was out further than 100m! TBH you boys seemed a bit out of your depth and need to do a bit more research! its a bit more hardcore on those ressy's than the water park chaps 👍👍
Had no idea mate, no signs and anglers fishing the same bank, in fact we went in behind anglers and seen the guards with no issues? As you pointed out the publics all have various rules, def easy to get caught out 👍
@@BaitworksTV yeah there is a night zone further along in the trees one up the top end by the island and one opposite side towards the dam you are limited to fishing 100yrs range at that lake and you were in watersports area which is a reserve there is a federation de peche website for every department in france that states the fishing zones rules and regulations within the department! no offence guys but it does annoy me that english anglers who enforce strict rules on their own lakes are quite happy to break rules and go poaching out of bounds for a glory fish when there in someone else's country! there seems to be more and more of this type of angling going on now and sooner or later someone will be having a long walk back to england! The french GDP have tightened up a lot on the rule breaking these day and if you get caught the fines are massive! just saying👍
Fed up of watching fishing video s when all they do is moan and complain how hard everything is.
Don't watch it then mate lol
You mean watching reality carp fishing? Not some edited film that only shows the best bits?
well done lads you put the graft in and was eventually rewarded with 2 bangers👏👏👏👏
We should have caught more mate but we just ran out of energy really and crashed but hey it was one to remember! lol
@@BaitworksTV That mud would have done my nut in
Mark with glasses am not gonna lie I thought it was Mike at first!🤣 quality piece lads!🖤
LMAO, that threw me too mate. 🤣
hahaha glad you enjoyed it Gav, Mark wears contacts all the time hence why glasses mark always looks weird lol
@@BaitworksTV 🤣🤣🤣 quality lads thoroughly enjoyed it think Mike needs a medal for carrying on with his hand! What a trooper!🙌
@@technomickdocumentalist2495 🤣🤣🤣 I was like hang on a minute is that Mike or Mark!🤣🤣
