I see you use all mono leaders? How long are they?

Awesome 👌 congrats and condolences. Funny old world init!

Not sure if you'll ever see this because the video is a year old but beach anglers regularly fish those conditions successfully....granted for shorter trips but you could learn alot from the discipline in terms of how to cope with weed , surf wind and tide..... great video.. thoroughly enjoying it.. . Thankyou

Brilliant , proper lake and style of fishing , what a fish too. So much better then watching worms at linear fishing . Congrats on the fish of a lifetime.

Condolences with your lovely dog💔

loved it what a place she was looking down on you x what a gift from your greatest friend and what a life she had Simon always remember the good times ❤

Great content thanks Simon👏🏻 sorry to hear about beau 😢but pleased that you’ve got another pupper 👍 Keep up the good work - Merry Christmas 🎉

I really feel your pain! When i was sleeping in my tent my dog was with me all the time.. a true companion! Its the same as losing someone very special. i was devastated losing her😢 a big man can feel really small i found out! Nothing to be ashamed off.. greetings from a Dutch colleague angler ❤

What a mega carp!

Cracking film and what a result. A fish heavenly sent from Beau. Always love to watch vids from Jim and yourself. Congratulations on that fish of a lifetime and look forward to seeing some more content in 25👍🏼🎣🐳

Congratulations on an amazing fish! 👏 also really good to see you back out there with ol jimbo as well too! Great video, smashing fish! 👌

Congratulations on your trophy! Please tell me if a two-person tent like the Nash Titan T2 can be used on this lake?

well done crowy mate awsome video luv the way you tell it how it is you deserve that sorry about the loss of your dog i lost my girl a few years back and wanted a certain carp and caught it for her its ove whelming i had tears of happiness and sadness at the same time amazing well done mate truly awsome and fair play patience is a virtue

Great vid Simon,what an ending, epic angling,sorry to hear about Beau.

Great video and glad you stuck to your guns and got an amazing fish. Staffies make the best dog. Hope you make more memories with your new woofer 👍🤞🙏

What a fantastic result Simon, After all that storm and dedication what a reward a fish of a lifetime congratulations. Sorry to hear about Beau lost my own years ago totally understand you they are a part of you. Great video!

Sorry a bout your dog mate, it’s a tough one 🐾

Brilliant crowbar. Well deserved 🎣🎣👊🏼

Well done Mate, very very gigantus.

Very Well Done 75 lb Wow! You deserve that for sticking it out in the one spot. Sorry to hear about ya dog passing, I know how you feel I lost my fishing dog.. It's like losing a close member of the family and you can feel numb for a long time after. I was going to suggest getting another dog soon but you've already done it .. That's the way. I have been thinking about going Carping in France on wild public waters for a while now, just set off with supplies and give it a try. I think I need to start off on a little bit smaller lake lol ?!! I always do things a bit differently so why not give this a try I tell myself. What gets my heart pumping fast is sat in the middle of nowhere on your own hooked into something huge and it's you against nature ... Yeah sure I like the social fishing now and again but can't help quietly sitting there in the wilds looking and listening, then the alarms suddenly scream off!

Remember my old Venture razorback blowing up in big winds 😝 ended up splicing the poles with twigs and leadcore to get through the session😝

Well done on your fish Simon,well earned.Great filming love!y video.I'm so sorry for your loss of. Bo...I can really relate to it first hand. You mentioned about having a new dog....you need to tell us more please.

Fantastic Trip Simon Fish of a Lifetime At over 75lbs Lovely Tribute to Bo Sorry for your Loss Mate! Superb bit of Angling 👌👌👌

Well done Simon, great film. The joy when you caught that fish, took me back to memories of a little lad catching his first fish, which was a long time ago. And you nearly had me when you said “ my little dog caught that for me”. Best fishing video I’ve watched for a long time. Sorry for your loss mate.

Brilliant vlog mate......what a fish to end with......mega chuffed for you after losing your dog......🙏🏼🩵
