Chapter One | A Dream of Summer | Reflections | Volume One

[@DaniandMikeNZ]

Makes me miss the times sitting next to a float with my Dad, or watching A Passiom for Angling, dreaming about our next trip. Thanks for helping me relive that! ❤

[@jbradshaw4236]

This man is a credit to his late uncle, the man who inspired my love for fishing. I never got to meet John Wilson, if I ever meet Martin I would like to shake his hand and offer my thanks.. I hope Martin will inspire the next generation of anglers .. I really believe this approach is wht fishing is really about.

[@Patr212]

Absolute perfection. This would make a perfect series on the television. It would be great to see Chris on the box again.

[@richiestan.]

Brilliant just Brilliant 👏

[@darrensaltmarsh8095]

Has to go down as one of the best all round anglers ever!!! Martin Bowler is someone we should all look up to and remember that it’s fishing and we should be greatful that we have the opportunity. Well done Sticky👍🏼

[@x_es.ur.gurl_x]

Top notch all rounder. Knows his onions.

[@fishermanchris4092]

Best carp video I've seen, many thanks. Can't understand the dislikes, I think we'll put it down to envy.

[@nickedwards290562]

Much better than thinking tackle.

[@shrek7271]

An absolute pleasure to watch, propper angling and no advertisement! Looking forward to seeing the next 4 chapters.

[@satnavgav3550]

Loved it, well done Sticky baits for bringing proper angling not advertising BS to KZbin a breath of fresh air

[@FishyDave7]

Amen to that

[@matthewtanner9823]

The jubilation after all his years of fishing says it all for me. Well done Martin Bowler and Bernard on the making of an excellent carp fishing video. Great camera work too.

[@jantheunissen2986]

What a video! You truly captured the fact that float fishing on carp can be so difficult but the reward so intense. Thank you for this amazing video!! Greets from Holland.

[@ecklestone8736]

What a fantastic fish! Fishing with a float for carp is one of the most beautiful fisheries. And then it doesn't even have to be fish of 20 pounds or more. Very well done and beautifully filmed. Cheers and greetz from Holland

[@DannysAnglingBlog]

A man who has caught more fish in a lifetime than we can ever dream, creating arm shaking memories and still getting as excited now as he did when that float went with the gudgeon. Fantastic video martin loved it, thank you

[@bobbiehorseman]

really special video, that's a true passion and love for fishing right there... no flashy tackle, no trying too hard and no ego's... everything that fishing should be, bang on!

[@Adipper]

Top notch film, narrative, and adventure. Thanks

[@mikeelrick2142]

No techno music + No Chavs = Perfect!

[@jamesmc084]

RIP Nash boys

[@bigv4046]

So grown up aren't you

[@smiff4748]

[@bigv4046]

Terry still the man.

[@cotsworldcarper5656]

This video is the nuts very well made. Sticky and Martin.

[@speednerf3337]

Conveying the true essence of fishing once again in a really natural bit of film. Felt like i was there!

[@jlmfoy365]

Bowler+Cribbins+estate lake=Perfection.

[@simonbedden7974]

Anyone not smiling after this just has to give it a go......nice work guys.

[@nickevans8530]

Absolutely , superb ..simply stunning . Exactly how it should be done. Nick

[@mattyctill]

Beautiful carp, beautiful film...

[@patcullen9304]

This is why I love float fishing

[@chrisobrien9932]

One word . . . . . . . inspirational!

[@dereksmith3103]

What a great vid stepping back in time nearly, good skills martin

[@rogerb581]

Martin is right, this is the most fantastic place to fish. How I miss just being there, fishing the day ticket lake for tench. Happy memories of great days.

[@davelebeer6551]

I’ve seen it again! Every time goose bumps! Pure emotion! This is such a beautiful video! Thanks guys!

[@robpaultog]

Nice touch getting Cribbins to narrate... that bought me back to watching two madmen catching carp and falling out of trees. :)

[@carlgaywood9418]

Lovely video, well done all!

[@leepinder34]

Been using sticky baits for 5 years wouldn't use any other bait total confidence great vid

[@alexredhat3476]

What an incredible movie. Love it.

[@jonrossjarvis7940]

I dont think I have ever left a comment on a video before but what a perfect video. The filming, narration and presentation was spot on. Not trying to sell anything to the viewers but pure angling.

[@grahamcockings4280]

Now that’s an angling program. Thanks sticky baits. 🎣🎣🎣

[@jakebaxtersecondnature7898]

Your so passionate about fishing and being outside and intouch with nature.. like myself, it's what it's all about . Not size or how many..the adventures👌👌 great video sticky/martin..enjoyed it no end. Thank you again

[@andyc392]

Quality from start to finish loved it, took me back to childhood memories, thanks 😀

[@jameslangner8929]

my best ever carp (and fish to date) of just over 30lb I had on the float. I'd turned up late morning at my local pond to find only to find one peg free. I set up with bite alarms all around me and had the biggest carp in the lake (a none known fish) on my first cast. I was actually after perch but was so chuffed i didn't mind not getting a perch! I appreciate bite alarms have their place but a float and centrepin are easily the most enjoyable way of fishing in my eyes. Very nice video!

[@thinkFishcatchFish]

I love it. For me its not about Carp. Its about fishing and the magic that comes with it... which is different for everyone.

[@lewisT77]

What a video, absolutely quality piece!

[@davelebeer6551]

Could not wait to see it.....what a result guys! Amazing! Thanks!

[@brianstubbs6658]

Perfect guys even got Bernard to do the voice over !!!

[@OrdinaryCulture]

Broadbent! Sticky you have excelled yourselves! And I'm only 30 seconds in!

[@TheePunisher]

Very "Mr Crabtree" like,kind of reminded of the programme fishing in the footsteps of Mr Crabtree. Cracking watch,Well done lads 👍👍

[@FishyDave7]

Fantastic atmospheric film on a stunning lake, brilliant

[@sgtsquidgems4515]

OH MY GOD IS THAT THE PASSION FOR ANGLING GUY DOING THE VOICE OVER? i'm 56 seconds in and this has made my day already

[@russwalker78]

Bernard Cribbins himself! proper throwback treat mate

[@StickyBaitsTV]

Hi Buddy, Yes, that is Bernard Cribbins, glad its made your day. Kind regards, Sticky.

[@pauledobrinoiu1832]

This video brings back so many beautiful memories. Well done Sticky Team!!!

[@charlottehull3628]

With all the current content why do I always come back Reflections volume 1 and 2, there just the best ones that have been made and with all the bait and tackle companies out there making films it's an achievement to be at the top, I appreciate this is old but it's just amazing film making

[@stevelevy9046]

This is so right trying to strike on a float compared to Bolt rigs with bite alarms where the fish hooks it's self not so much love and lost passion for floating any more but respect to you Martin Bowler thanks for the upload sticky bait TV respect.

[@PI7ABR3D]

That was a great video. Can feel the elation when that fish crossed the cord

[@retrobob3802]

What a lovely video - nice one Stick Baits for producing this. Here after reading Martin's column in the Angling Times.

[@danirvine8009]

Ive just watched the reflections chapters backwards (not sure why) but this rounded it off perfectly. Makes me want to start fishing again. Thankyou sticky. 👍

[@bobbd6543]

Fantastic, does not get any better than that 😎

[@thespodcastblog5097]

What a beautifully produced video - thank you.

[@martinmullen71]

Beautiful fish Martin, a lovely way to fish, just how we fished 40 years ago or more, before the bare hook rigs.

[@gee3883]

If Carlsberg done Anglers.... Reminds me of one of my best days fishing ever, using free lined floating crust in the weed 5 Carp biggest 24 lb. Brilliant fishing as always from this Legend and top marks for cinematography .

[@mattiemclean9882]

nobody likes a show-off Graham

[@TheFishingBloggers]

Now that is a fishing video. Reminds me of the Passion for Angling days.

[@markhepworth4804]

The Fishing Bloggers Was it the drippingly cheesy Cribbins narration.....?

[@TheFishingBloggers]

Mark Hepworth might have been 😂

[@chrisditchburn8337]

Spot on the voice over made it takes me back to a passion for angling

[@jasonjones1331]

That's how to make a carp fishing video 👍👍

[@oliverroberts2492]

That's how you get "A dream of summer"..........

[@piterm208]

I have fever after this movie, and narration voice - it’s stunning addictive adventure with Sticky Baits, interesting what’s in the next?

[@ianchappytube]

Very well conceived and produced. Excellent Job!

[@ARTY_CARPER]

What a buzz on the float, inspiring little film 👍💚

[@sircumference5032]

one word - enchanting!

[@ha5enk552]

This highlights all the best parts of carp fishing

[@charlottehull3628]

12.46 how strange you mention your gudgeon and immediately I'm taken back to the bridge canal, seeing a float in the margin only to pick it up too find its attached to a small perch, just that one moment 35 years ago starting my love of fishing. Just thought I'd share lol

[@DayTicketAngler]

Best video I’ve seen for a long long time well done Dan perfectly put together and how videos should be done. The rest prick your ears up your a long way behind

[@richardbarrett7544]

A lovely video Martin, evocative of our sport. We'll done mate.

[@hawkeye7862]

What an awesome video ! I live in Dorset I wonder what water that is. Looks beautiful

[@Comrade_Akimov]

Love float fishing. As effective as setting feeder traps is, looking a the bobber and picking up rod when carp has already hooked itself already is way less exciting. It's sort of like hunting boar or deer at the feeder 30m out.

[@denty32]

Sticky well done I think you guys have nailed it. fantastic cinematography and beautiful drone footage. This collection of videos will be very hard to match 👏👏

[@lukeframpton3671]

One of my favourite anglers

[@justinsteel6360]

First time fishing video to make me smile. Bliss

[@HARDYSFISHINGADVENTURES]

Bernard cribbins intro wins my heart

[@kingofthepondvids]

awesome! that's what it's all about .. great job 😊

[@TheSwampy1974]

Brilliant wish I could fish there going back in time

[@snakebite1977]

Perfect!! great video's from sticky

[@adriansmith6386]

martin that is a special lake .and the best way to catch your intended fish

[@bensockett9345]

Amazing video! I'm not a carp angler but that makes me want to go carp fishing now, I am however wanting to catch good quality fish like Martin does, can I ask what rod hes using here? I think it's a drennan rod is it?

[@ryanthorburn6588]

What an amazing video thank you

[@M1K3R0LPH]

Such a lovely video, wish I was part of the syndicate. Does anyone know what rod Martin is using here?

[@Simmsited236]

Love the voice over!

[@bene8843]

Fantastic!!!

[@neilrestick1160]

What rod is Martin using in this video?

[@tylermorby3130]

What testcurve rod is Martin using?anyone know?

[@dominic4296]

Float fishing for big carp is the most exciting form....

[@ifishcatfish]

wow incredible cinematography. If u made this video without professional videographer i tip my hat to you. I have seen 4K videos but this looked like 10K.. And how did u find Antony Hopkins' voice! : ) Professional production!

[@ianmiller1879]

beautiful.

[@scruggs-wu6yz]

Martin and Bernard brilliant combination!

[@user-wo7rp6bc6t]

great video

[@peterclement7061]

brilliant video fantastic method, you've just got to love the old school tactics

[@martingorbacius4699]

Top notch 👍🏼

[@andrewmccleave2089]

fantastic martin iceing on the cake Bernard cribins

[@banklifegarethcompton5714]

Nice one Martin tort by the best Mr John wilson him self:)

[@terrifying7847]

Amazing video.If that does not make you want go out fishing you need check your pulse.

[@IFilmUfos]

Epic video #keepingitreal#notfullofplugs

[@carlharrison5939]

This is real Carp fishing. Not chucking out leads and hair rigs and waiting for the fish to self hook themselves. Pit yourself against nature and the fish in the way it should be done. Martin deserves a massive pat on the back for campaining for proper angling skills.

[@steveshurey8618]

Excellent 👍

[@tommyseers8662]

And I love fishing too top vid

[@thedynamitekid7512]

Feel like I was watching passion of angling.

[@deboyblanktniet]

Super nice👌👌👌

[@dface6447]

Martin was dug up from a much more idyllic poetic era 🎣🙂
