    So far, Westys road race has been, in my opinion, great. This has been edge of the seat video. By this, I mean, a lot of people who fish once or twice a week can relate to how your fishing has gone. I myself have had more as you call them blanks than fish. But when that fish comes along, you feel top of the world. Well done on your tally so far, but still a lot left for day seven. Stay safe and good luck for the last day.

    Thanks Westy. Good that they warn us. Looking out for each other. Sometimes not safe on our own in open waters or canals in built up areas . Keep safe , keep going.👍😁

    Hello mate!!! Really enjoyed the rod race so far.....looking forward to the finale. As a disabled angler I can't travel too far but I have 3 or 4 day tickets fisheries within driving distance for me. I've messaged all the guys that run them to find out what they have stocked in each of them and I'm then going to do a session on each over a few weeks, can't do 4 days in a row, and see how many I can get. Thanks for the inspiration, fishing has been so much better since getting my Korum feeder chair so thanks again for the reviews and getting back to me with my questions!!! Tight lines fella and best of luck with the final 3 species!!!

    Hiya Westy, Some people are not worth typing about. Day 6 sounded like good hard work, I hope you was satisfied with your day, I thought it was brilliant & you done well. Persistence pays off at the end of the day, I am really looking forward to day 7 happy days.🎣

    Grass carp Hardest of carp to catch Put in fisheries to keep weed growth down So I think that a very subtle approach is required, Never caught one myself or a Sturgeon either .Good call on that first what you thought a Rudd as not being a rudd. Surprised the gudgeon is proving difficult though

    I'm a 77 old amputee and I've recently taken up fishing again after a six year break... All the fisheries and canals around here in the Midlands are stuffed full with gudgeon.
    But I think that would be just a little to far to drive, even for you.... 😁
    Single maggot, 18 hook, loose feed a few maggots, fished close in, gudgeon guaranteed.... 👌

    • @WestysAngling
      @WestysAngling  2 місяці тому +1

      Probably a bit far for a gudgeon buddy yes 😂 anyway the rod race was filmed at the end of September, I’m just releasing them weekly 😁 I’m glad you have managed to get back into it and manage to get out on the bank ! Tight lines buddy. Thank you for sponsoring the channel !

  • @ChrisJennings-dv1uz
    @ChrisJennings-dv1uz 2 місяці тому

    Grass carp do seem really difficult to catch westy! I'd be happy catching a sturgeon in the final and still a great rod race!

    • @WestysAngling
      @WestysAngling  2 місяці тому +1

      Never caught one myself, I think they need to be caught off the top or fished for specifically with a subtle carp setup

    Good vid Westy . No matter what goes on. Just a question Westy , Why do they call that area of the Ribble Bad Country? Is it an unsafe area or another reason .Plus a couple of fisheries showing traps being set for Carp by some people. Some have been warned and banned but others are popping up in Greater Manchester area. Salford Angling etc. the Bailiffs are doing a good job but can’t be everywhere. Just spread the word . Facebook. Enjoyed vid👏

    • @WestysAngling
