[@jamiecollins506]

As Jim Royle would say "Dark Horse Baggin Machine, MY ARSE!" great vid Andy

[@mattjudd1239]

By far my favourite angler to watch! A great presenter, a proper laugh and an unbelievable fisherman. Nice to see a top angler using a middle of the range pole as well. Testament to the quality of the 501! If only I had £900.......

[@stuartknox2298]

Love the MAP videos!! Great performance Andy!! Keep the videos coming.

[@nickypritchard6846]

Love the videos. Keep them up! fantastic regular anglers get a chance to film and spend the day with Andy. Fair play, must be difficult. Also helps watching when Andy is just not right in the head !!! I love the guy !!!!

[@tomwestley]

Awesome video yet again guys keep them coming ooooossssshhhhh

[@AJay-sx8uh]

Andy what a legend, that other bloke was painful lol

[@jaquesdaniels2964]

The shots of the Ooooshmaster catching in the edge were amazing - just watching these during a 10k travel limit from home .

[@wizardwithguns1]

Incredible, I went out today and caught 2 fish, just 2!! These guys are amazing.

[@andymay1926]

Again a legend video keep up the great work

[@lawrenceuk4474]

Great video buddy! Our lass hates me watching these videos but your the only one who makes her laugh her socks off..

[@mrfister1899]

Baggin Machine spent more time watching Andy than his float. No wonder his mate had to tell him he had a bite at one point!

[@Tracks777]

Quite good video, awesome!

[@dancollings1268]

Good vid again Andy 👍 keep up the good work

[@BagUpTV]

Steven was well up for it at the start, keeping his tactics a secret ha ha ha glad you smashed him up !!

[@cns180784]

God almighty have i missed fishing this year, what was i thinking. Great to be back on it and watching the likes of Andy May on here.

[@waynebrotherston4034]

Never get tired of watchin Steven gettin smashed to bits !! 🤣

[@marmalizer2010]

lol i think the 2 dislikes were the dark horse and his mate

[@jk-zf8eo]

venue expert totally smashed up by oooosh master may,he,s a proper baggin machine.

Legend

[@connorscoarsefishingjourne7680]

Good fishing but I don’t like the way that owner was throwing fish about in them keepnets

[@michaelbaker8292]

The great Andy may. Funny as f@#k with his two swans Legend brilliant vid keep up the great work

[@cns180784]

All in! ooosh good luck lol

[@CB-xr1eg]

Anyone who has "Baggin Machine" on his back obviously thinks far too much of himself. Glad Andy thrashed him. You could see he was worried about Andy, he frequently looked across to see what he was doing. Well done Mr May...OOOOSH!!!

[@robandamyp]

what a character Andy is

[@JohnSmith-uc1kf]

Dark horse bagging machine? NEY 🐑 u met a Thoroubred today .

[@chdraughting1438]

More of these Andy, one a week would be fine with me

[@TheMAPChannel]

We have to do some proper work inbetween the fishing unfortunately :P

[@cns180784]

0:30 hahaha Jesus Christ mate not sure if i would have even bothered turning up if i found out my opponent called himself that!

[@cns180784]

Surely he binned/burned that top after losing so horrendously lol

[@carlogussoni8449]

miticooooo! !!!

[@shuggiemcg1]

Great video and great fishing hated the weigh in fish care was non existing from the guy weighing up slammed one keep net down on the ground!

[@matthewburgess2683]

solid fishing well in andy

[@Korvintage64]

Dark horse "baggin' machine" certainly got thrown some shade. If you're going to talk the talk, better make sure you can walk the walk.

[@TheMAPChannel]

Fair play to anyone willing to step up against Mr May!

[@Korvintage64]

Agreed, but there's no way you turn up fishing against a pro like Andy, wearing a shirt emblazoned with "bagging machine" all over your back. Just asking for what Squire May dished out to him, a thrashing.

[@callum2677]

MAP MatchAnglingProducts I may be a junior but I reckon I could beat the ooooooooosshhh master I challenge u at Tyler's common fishery

[@jasonlaverty76]

Excellent Andy. I guess he got a mullering as no indication of his weight.

[@TheMAPChannel]

Steven had 75lb 8oz - I missed that in the edit... Sorry Rich :)

[@DenzelLN936]

Well and truly mullered!

[@Adywebb123]

Great looking water , which lake is it

[@thedanhutton]

El Webb they are fishing on duck, it's a fantastic lake with a good head of carp in there

[@paulscatt2160]

The challenger got a sense of humour bypass? A smile wouldn't have gone amiss. Guess the dummy was thrown out of his pram not telling us his weight. Glad Andy smashed him up !!

[@TheMAPChannel]

Harder than you think fishing with a camera in your face - We have the upmost respect for anyone willing to go head to head with Andy! Steven had 75lb 8oz - I missed that in the edit... Sorry Rich :)

[@scottessery100]

i cant tell the difference between jamie hughes and andy may and im from stoke :(

[@kamil199044]

What landing net handle Andy use?

[@liam2368]

I'd like to know this aswell, seems to be proper stiff.

[@kamil199044]

it is stiff isn't it

[@liam2368]

I'm thinking it's the Map Parabolix 4m handle, about £120.

[@TheMAPChannel]

Yes the Parabolix - www.mapfishing.co.uk/products/hardware/netshandles/parabolix-4m-landing-net-handle/Q0615

[@carlkirby3189]

great stuff Andy, why the change to the 501?

[@TheMAPChannel]

He originally had a 501 for his coaching, but it's that good he has started using it in his own fishing at times, especially when you're only fishing upto 13m, you won't notice loads of difference plus they will stand upto some serious abuse!

[@carlkirby3189]

I have both also and don't see much difference up to 13m. Do you think 501 is better suited to commercials?

[@carlkirby3189]

I have both also and don't see much difference up to 13m. Do you think 501 is better suited to commercials?

[@TheMAPChannel]

They are both primarily designed for modern commercial fishing, but when bagging big weights like this at short range, sections are going to get knocked around and dropped so if you have a pole like this in the bag then it makes sense to use that :)

[@samwood1468]

What did he weigh?

[@TheMAPChannel]

Steven had 75lb 8oz - I missed that in the edit... Sorry Rich :)

[@robandamyp]

next time put the bagging machine in between Andy Jamie and aiden bet the shirts in the bin after that

[@clayburton2315]

This is some incredibly boring fishing. Nice fish, But too easy fishing. Certainly not match worthy.

[@CB-xr1eg]

Awww diddums. It was just a friendly where they knew plenty of fish would be caught. Not worth crying over.

[@andrewbullock5101]
