Carl - I speak for everyone when I say well done. Not only on smashing an incredibly tough water, and persevering, but for the story telling, cinematography and world class editing. I’m so blessed to call you a friend and I love seeing how you push yourself to the limits for the entertainment of your fans and followers. Keep up the exceptional work, and stay in touch ❤️
Exactly what they☝️ said lol !!!! I'm so incredibly impressed with everything you and Alex do! Your so smart the two of you, and you have such fantastic work ethic and drive to succeed it's inspiring! It really is! You both make me want to do more, go harder, push further and keep going! And the story telling and edits are , muah , 🤌 😘 chef's kiss 💋! Lol . Thank you for sharing your knowledge and journey with us! (P.s. can't wait till I can get some stickers for the hubby, he's obsessed, lol 😂 !!)
Best video yet, your tenacity, and determination sets this channel above all others. Really felt your despair and elation. So much graft put in, and your triumph thoroughly deserved. This was EPIC on every level. Well done, mate. Plus zavs barbecues looked amazing. 10/10, Al!
the editing, story telling, music choice, amzing fish, evverything about this video was just amazing. one of your best videos from the last year. looking forward to the next ones!!!
The quality of the videos just gets better and better and for all that hard work over they days shows you should never give up no matter how challenging it may get
So I had all my tackle stolen in December, it really knocked my confidence and passion for carp fishing knowing how long it will take to buy it all back. But watching this video has re-sparked something and given me the motivation to start to rebuild my kit, thank you! Awesome video!
Man, I'm so sorry to hear that. That must've been gutting :( Thanks so much mate, happy hear the film helped to inspire you back into wanting to re-build your kit... that's amazing. All the best with it! Tight lines. C
A bittersweet session with one that got away but also an advocate for perseverance paying off. You must be so proud of landing that beauty chuffed for you bud. That memory of catching that mirror on an incredibly tough water will last a lifetime
Hi Carl, I know you probably won’t read this but I just want you to know that your videos are like therapy for me. I watch them whenever I’m relaxing or doing something where I can divide my concentration between the task and one of your videos. You inspire me to get better at fishing and to try new techniques and approaches. Thank you for your work and keep up your wonderful style, there really are only a very few creators who stand out like this for me.
thank you so much carl for getting me into fishing! im 11 and only started in November but since then i have been obsessed with fishing and going in my free time. thanks again carl, Max
Your content just keeps getting better and better mann, dare I say it..... Carl and Alex becoming just Carl has improved BOTH of your channels for the best. So so glad it didn't go the other way for either of you 👌
Absolutely amazing Carl,brilliant mate,even my 8 year old daughter couldn’t take her eyes off the screen and said at the end how good she thought it was, I’d say it’s one of your best yet👍
I have wanted to fish this "lake" for 30 years and often wondered what was in it. Thank you for answering my wonderings. Green is my natural colour, honest. Looking forward to more episodes.
At the edge of my seat for the whole video! With your knowledge you done the right thing to carry on, which paid off massively in my opinion. Great video Carl.
Awesome story! Thank you. I can relate to the fact of not having success at a new venue but keep wanting to go back. Same thing happened to me when I started fishing a park lake this year. I just had to go back. And only landed a carp on my 5th session. The feeling is amazing! Keep up the good work. You have no idea the impact that all of your videos had on my success as an angler. So much so that I can now help other people and young kids who are starting to fish. My first piece of advice to them are to go and watch all your videos.
I’ve been trying to make a good fishing video for months but I can’t quite get them good enough. Every time I watch one of Carl’s videos it inspires me to try again. It’s hard as I’m only 12 years old and since no one I know has a clue about fishing. I’ve learned everything from your channel Carl. Thanks for everything
Keep going!! It took me 16 years of practice. Fishing, editing and story telling really isn't a skill really doesn't happen over night, just got to keep at it! Keeping learning all you can, and gain new skills too. I learned a lot working for companies doing it too when I was a teenager :)
What a brilliant video. I think what makes the videos on your channel stand out is your ability to tell a story. You can really take someone on the journey of all the emotions with you.
The choreography on this is world class. As is the fishing. Hats off to you! That lake is absolutely pristine as well. The people who live there are so lucky to have it at their disposal.
Carl you have come such a long way I have seen ur insta posts and I’ve been waiting for for this has been my favourites UA-cam stories much respect for you and Alex alike keep up the videos
Saturday is usually a slow day for videos from the people I subscribe to. It is always a treat to see a Fish with Carl video on Saturdays (as it would be any other day of the week). But this week I feel super lucky! The Fishing Tutorials video came out (which was awesome) AND a Fish with Carl video. That should hold me over for a while. Cheers Carl!
What a fantastic video, Karl! And what an unbelievably beautiful carp! I applaud your tenacity!. The reward is massive! I actually had tears in my eyes when you landed the fish!
I don’t carp fish anymore but your videos still keep me interested, pure not full of plugs and adverts for crap no one really needs. Stay true to this style on film it’s pure and how it should. Dude I salute you 👊🏻🙌🏻
Already excited and I haven't even watched it yet! The fact you've been trying to crack this nut for so long and that opening shot is giving me reservoir diary vibes! Thanks in advance. Edit: Have now watched, can confirm, epic!!! Well done both of you!!
Carl just watched this and listened to ur podcast big respect to u ur honesty and passion is so inspirational love what ur doing and what ur about can relate to so much of it myself well done mate keep doing it stay true xx
I have been despairing recently fishing along with the younger generation of anglers. It seems that so many young anglers miss the point of fishing! You and your brothers journey restores my faith in the younger generation. You encompass the very essence of fishing in every way. Well done for getting the whole experience right!!!! And more to the point teaching a new audience the path of the true angler. You are inspirational. 🙏
this video reminds my why i choose fishing, going on a new lake and never know what youre gonna catch /if you"re gonna catch makes you want do do it more and more, never to give up even you're gonna have sessions with no fish at the end of your line. For me this video it's by far the best one you're ever made. Keep up the good work , i'm sure we're gonna see so much more amazing videos !!!
There is something about the unknown . It has a feeling I think that's better than hitting a water knowing that there's a 40lber . The phonecall from Ali , a reasonably well known angler 🤣 I'd lose my mind with a phonecall from a legend like that . Love the content keep up all the hard work and it will always pay off 👌
One can only say thank for such exceptional, inspirational and valuable free content here. Thank you for all the hard work and inspiration you give for many peoples fishing! We fish a similarly hard and understocked lake here with unknown carp so for sure this piece here will keep us motivated! Take care!
You're an extremely lucky chap to be allowed to fish that lake,I know they have armed security on hand.ive always dreamt of fishing it but I'm happy to see you catch one from it, well done,an awesome result 👍
Possibly been my favourite ever film produced from you, been watching for many years must be 8+, this reminded me of the old videos and this is how I like these videos
Thank You so much, Carl! Your level of determination is truly inspiring ! I often use it in my own fishing adventures as a reminder to never give up... I am very grateful to you for that!
Absolutely stunning! The location, the lake, you're storytelling, and that 35 pound carp at the end, all stunning! You're videos are getting better and better every upload! Cant wait for the next one,
Carl, what can I say apart from thank you. All your hard work, frustration, long drives and efforts! What a brilliant and enjoyable film so well put together. Keep it up 👌
This is what carp fishing is all about. I've lived this journey a few times on some different campaigns here in Michigan, making this film extremely relatable: the driving, the blanking, zero signs of carp, almost no information, the poor access, and most disheartening, your own mom and other close people telling you that it's a waste of time. But when you do finally land that one fish, the experience is almost incomprehensible.
@@fishwithcarl honestly, we're the lucky ones to have found your channel. You and Alex bring so much expertise and positive content to us, the ones who share your vision.
Hello from France, i often see your videos (particularly the carp fishing ones) and leave here my first comment to say how much i have appreciated it. Your ability to relate your story is really great and this is precisely what we are missing in French community, we rarely communicate on what’s behind the result in a deep way, especially if it’s a long series of fails. Doing it as you did makes us feel and understand how this catch has been important to you and this is what i personally enjoy to see.
Ah wow. Thank you, that's mean a lot to hear. I very much appreciate that and feel happy you felt this from it. I see what you mean. Yes to show vulnerability. That it doesn't always go well, or perfectly feels important to share, and how much it means when it does go well. Glad you enjoyed it.
Great Great video Carl, as we all know it can become testing to keep pushing after so many blank sessions, I admire and respect your determination to catch from that lake, top man 👍👌
That’s next level stuff for your channel Carl, the scale of the campaign and the dedication and effort a film like that must take from the other end of the country. It’s fair to say you’ve done yourself proud on both counts-an amazing fish and a captivating, beautifully shot and edited professional film. Sit back and take in all the compliments-you’ve definitely earned them with this one🙂.
Well Carl & Zav, your dedication & desire has given you the results you deserve! Well done guys, can’t wait to see the rest of the film! Also great filming & some amazing shots! Always a pleasure.👍👍👍
You're an absolute legend, great persistent fisherman and a great storyteller! This is the first time I gladly watched a long UA-cam video, and I will watch it again. Greetings from Serbia! 🇷🇸
Wow just wow!! I'm so glad I found your channel many years ago watching how you've grown and learned so much in your life is truly inspirational thankyou for another amazing film👍❤️
As per usual, worth rewatching! Your films (because calling them videos would be a disservice) are always top notch mate! I feel like you should be winning Oscars or whatever awards the world's top filmmakers/anglers are awarded.. many thanks for all your hard work, and keep up the legendary stuff! And also thanks to all your friends and supporters that help make it possible. Safe journeys! Tight lines, wet nets!
Wow catching a carp after such a long time. I had already given up hope. Good for you for continuing. And this video of all the different seasons. Very well put together. Top video. Please continue like this. I love to see them.
I love your videos Carl. The effort you go to to provide such amazing quality videos is insane and what really sets you apart from the rest. Keep smashing it brother
Love love love this video! I’ve watched all your content but this one is special and i can’t wait for the next video! Keep up the good work. Tight lines
I regularly pass that lake and have done for years , in the past it was possible to see the expanse of the lake and would stop and watch and would regularly see signs , but as times changed fences went up and seeing the lake was impossible from the road . Im sure like many anglers who pass this lake wondering what it holds it’s great to know our dreaming was in fact worthwhile, and to see such a beautiful fish on the bank really is special . Well fished , and deserved following your dream as a young man and making your hobby your job gave you this opportunity 👏
Hi Carl just wanna say I am 13 and have been watching your vidoes for quite some time you are by far my favourite youtuber and fishermen. I recently went fishing at an open lake it was quite windy and my alarms had no battery but I still mangaged to catch a few 3-4 pounders. I dont have much time to go fishing so I resort to watching your videos. Thank you for making these amazing videos keep up the good work.
Superb superb superb!!!! What an amazing location, Carl, and huge thanks to your buddy for inviting us all to this incredible place! It really does make you wonder what could be lurking in throat dark brown water. Can’t wait for chapter 2. Tight lines, dude!
Wonderful story!! I love this movie. I can totally understand your feelings and reaching the state when you can't accept to fail, it has to work, etc.... I know this too, the despair. And it feels so great when you finally succeed. All of these emotions are captured perfect in this movie to feel with you, great. I was really happy when you two got one. I'm looking forward to the next sessions at mystery Lake.
Carl, I’m speechless. Absolutely epic video. Love the way you tell the story too. What an amazing memory for you both. Wow. As always the videography/ editing is insane. Thank you for taking the time to make such fantastic content mate. Ross
One of your best videos yet carl and team. Loved it,some amazing footage from the drone and oh yeah the mirror wasn't too bad either! Well done and willlook forward to part 2 & 3 & 4
What an incredible story mate the huge mirror caught 20 years later and also the one that got away. Enjoyed it muchly. Im looking forward to the next chapter.
Really enjoyed that! Best carp fishing video I’ve seen in ages. Proper genuine. Well done fella, lovely big cyps! Can’t wait to see the next one. Best fishes
Carl , been watching the Channel for years and the videos always impress me every time but this one was exceptional. You are mega at what you do! Thanks for a great watch and making a Sunday morning fun 👌
Got to say you never give up and thats the best thing, pulling out the giant carp , even after blanks you just kept going also the video editing is next level. Never stop cheers !
Dude, thank you. What an amazing effort, and bringing us along with via amazingly delivered content. You, the production and most importantly that fish, simply top class.
The amount of times I have stayed there and sat at the bar at night staring at the lake wondering if it has carp in it. It’s a stunning lake and I had never seen anyone fish it before. Great work mate and congratulations!
Oi Carl my carpy brother. This is brilliant man and to catch Sutch a old leviathan and a mega scaly one at that after all the hard work and drive is so rewarding to watch . Thanks for sharing this one with us all . And hope their are more adventures on the mystery lake. Big love Cee-Jay 👊💙👊🎣🎣🎣
Wow... what a video!!! Carl, my man, this is a documentary quality... narration, camera, everything... I would love it even if you haven't caught anything, but this catch make it even better! Well done mate, keep up with a GREAT work!
Another super video Carl! Merry Christmas 🎄 to you and Omi… I just wanted to say thanks to you and all of your fishing friends and fellow UA-camrs, for reigniting the passion for fishing that I had in my teens (over 30 years ago!!!) I now can’t wait for my fishing trips in 2025 and my quests to catch my first ever barbel, a PB carp and my first ever ‘proper’ pike (a fish that’s larger than a couple of pounds…………. 😅🐟🐠🎣

Awesome comment, we loved watching the videos they done with you in them, there is a lake near me with a 106lb cat :)
I agree so much he will have a great future Alex is jokes wish u both the best
The editing, the adventure, the fish, the whole film.. Everything is just perfect!!
Except that notorious M25. So glad to have retired from truck driving and moved to Aus away from that dam ring road. Great video.
Thank you so much! :)
ah..na na na nah...its 87,5 percent perfect...🤣😉
"We've done it"
Says it all about you as a person. Well done mate, keep it up!

Love love love this video! I’ve watched all your content but this one is special and i can’t wait for the next video! Keep up the good work. Tight lines
Thank you Stuart! Happy to hear that :) You too
Excellent!
You certainly put the work in for that one.
I play golf at that course. Always dreamed of fishing that lake! Made me so happy to see there is monsters in there! Thanks Carl!
What’s the golf course mate?
I regularly pass that lake and have done for years , in the past it was possible to see the expanse of the lake and would stop and watch and would regularly see signs , but as times changed fences went up and seeing the lake was impossible from the road . Im sure like many anglers who pass this lake wondering what it holds it’s great to know our dreaming was in fact worthwhile, and to see such a beautiful fish on the bank really is special . Well fished , and deserved following your dream as a young man and making your hobby your job gave you this opportunity 👏
Love the views the light and that moment from a new lake, great video, wonderful filming, )
Hi Carl just wanna say I am 13 and have been watching your vidoes for quite some time you are by far my favourite youtuber and fishermen. I recently went fishing at an open lake it was quite windy and my alarms had no battery but I still mangaged to catch a few 3-4 pounders. I dont have much time to go fishing so I resort to watching your videos. Thank you for making these amazing videos keep up the good work.
Superb superb superb!!!!
What an amazing location, Carl, and huge thanks to your buddy for inviting us all to this incredible place!
It really does make you wonder what could be lurking in throat dark brown water.
Can’t wait for chapter 2.
Tight lines, dude!
Wow. Amazing. What an achievement! Well done. To catch the same mirror as your friend twenty years ago…incredible.
I fish because of you and I love it bro. Keep up the great work hopefully one day you will have your own TV show
Wonderful story!! I love this movie.
I can totally understand your feelings and reaching the state when you can't accept to fail, it has to work, etc.... I know this too, the despair. And it feels so great when you finally succeed.
All of these emotions are captured perfect in this movie to feel with you, great. I was really happy when you two got one.
I'm looking forward to the next sessions at mystery Lake.
Thank you so much :) You know it. It really does. When we commit ourselves to something, that feeling when it pays off is like nothing else.
U mate are a real legend in the fishing community up there with Jeremy wade in my opinion, as always amazing shots and perfect voice over

Another super video Carl! Merry Christmas 🎄 to you and Omi… I just wanted to say thanks to you and all of your fishing friends and fellow UA-camrs, for reigniting the passion for fishing that I had in my teens (over 30 years ago!!!) I now can’t wait for my fishing trips in 2025 and my quests to catch my first ever barbel, a PB carp and my first ever ‘proper’ pike (a fish that’s larger than a couple of pounds…………. 😅🐟🐠🎣
