Enjoyed watching that with added bird song and knowledge of wildlife as a bonus hopefully u upload more river fishing vids thanks for sharing 👍🐟🎣

[@WildlifeAndFishing]

Thanks so much for your kind comments. The river season opens very soon and I've a few videos planned...

[@davvo1234]

Careful with those forceps hanging there fella. A mate of mine got a pair in his chest after a fall few year back...nice vid pal

[@WildlifeAndFishing]

Ouch, that sounds painful. I'll bear that in mind for sure. Thanks for your comment.

[@martinklein4651]

Hi, nice video, it's enjoyable listening to the bird song. But like other comments, it would be so much better without the music. But you make a good point about the plastic stops. I started using cut up tooth picks. But in the last year or so I have been using spaggetti.

[@WildlifeAndFishing]

Thanks for the feedback about the music. Point taken. Glad I'm not the only one thinking about the amount of plastic we use in fishing. It does need to change in my view. Like lead shot years ago.

[@tel1184]

Great effort, look forward to future videos 👏👏👍🏻😊🎣

[@WildlifeAndFishing]

Thanks so much. I'll try and keep them coming!

[@jimmyalexandrou5732]

Hello from Cyprus, love the fishing and the bird knowledge but please try to lower that backround music even better turn it off

[@WildlifeAndFishing]

Thanks Jimmy. Message received and understood:)

[@johnnewman2046]

I have fished that stretch in early autumn with low water when it looks very different and you would not be able to fish most of those swims you were in. The walk up that hill at the end of the day was memorable!

[@WildlifeAndFishing]

Thanks John. I've fished it in summer also when it's great for trotting. The locals call the hill cardiac hill..!

[@fishingtailfilms]

Enjoyable video and agree about the use of plastics 👍🎣🐟 have subscribed.

[@WildlifeAndFishing]

Thanks so much! Time to start using less disposable plastic in fishing maybe.

[@fishingtailfilms]

@@WildlifeAndFishing Agreed 👍

[@silentangling]

Very informative, thanks for sharing and inspiring.

[@WildlifeAndFishing]

Thank you! I enjoy your videos also. Keep up the great work.

[@silentangling]

@@WildlifeAndFishing You are most kind, thank you.

[@AnAverageAngler]

I enjoyed that, thanks

[@WildlifeAndFishing]

Thanks so much for letting me know. From one average angler to another..!

[@alanrichardson7790]

thanks

[@WildlifeAndFishing]

No problem

[@David-ce1nh]

Enjoyed the video, but the music was very annoying . Dump the music 🎶

[@WildlifeAndFishing]

Thanks for the feedback David. I'm in two minds also about it myself. I'll keep experimenting.

[@harrybobs4014]

Another vote for no music, subscribed 👍🏼

[@WildlifeAndFishing]

@@harrybobs4014 thanks for subscribing and the music feedback. The latest video has dropped the music so I'm listening :)

[@rob_on_the_rocks]

Yeah great vid, let's have the lovely wildlife noise, not annoying muzak 😂

[@Stephen_Martin]

Video good but dump the music...

[@WildlifeAndFishing]

Thanks for the feedback Stephen. I'm finding my way with the vids...

[@Stephen_Martin]

@@WildlifeAndFishing nice fish though, with the river so high.

[@martinholsten9446]

Is this stretch day ticket?

[@WildlifeAndFishing]

Yes it's on the Wye and Usk fishing passport.

[@martinholsten9446]

@@WildlifeAndFishing after the other week i want to try again. Trouble is i live in Kent but i think it's worth the drive 👍🤞

[@alanrichardson7790]

hi enjoyed your blog can you tell me please what landing net handle is that you have thanks

[@WildlifeAndFishing]

Thanks Alan. I'm not sure exactly what model my landing net is, but it's like this one - amzn.eu/d/hcYOGyb I got the original specs from Avon Angling's excellent videos.

[@malcstevenson5921]

I enjoyed the video but would have enjoyed it more without the music. I found it really intrusive. Your otherwise enjoyable and interesting video just didn't need it. Friendly criticism so please don't be put off!

[@WildlifeAndFishing]

Thanks so much. You're not the first to say it and I'm listening and trying to get better! Stay well.

[@allanharris9143]

Music so annoying, dump it please

[@WildlifeAndFishing]

Yup - got it! Thanks Allan.
