Dear Steve, I have watched almost every video you have made I especially like this one. What a beautiful setting and incredible fish. I put it onto my TV screen, made a pit of coffee and put my feet up to watch. Its utterly breathtaking. Your editing is absolutely first class!. Thank you so much for sharing your trips. You are a good man and a superb fisherman. Best wishes, Ian.

Derek Evans fishing that lake was definitely one of the highlights of last year!!!

[@divvydave2794]

I can imagine Steve I’m looking to book somewhere in Europe in the next year would you recommend somewhere as my dad is a disabled anger and also the driver lol so it can’t be really t too much of a trek for him I live in Birmingham

[@stevebriggs4638]

Thanks for watching :-) Sam's a top bloke, give him our best!!!!

[@Harvey600]

Will do! Hoping to fish with him again soon.

[@Nobody423]

A privilege just to watch you catch , id like to know more about some of the equipment you use if possible without sounding like Korda trying to sell everything, either ways I appreciate and had the privilege to meet you once at the Royston lakes, tight lines I’m ready for the next adventure.

[@stevebriggs4638]

Brett Dunmow thanks for watching Brett and for the nice comments 🙂👍🏻👍🏻

[@TheLOFTYLAD]

👏👏🎣

[@veterinarniklinikaanima9750]

Great vid as always! But where is a big tench?..:-))

[@stevebriggs4638]

Veterinární klinika Anima thanks 🙂👍🏻 yes unfortunately there’s never room for everything, there’s lots of film that doesn’t get used, including some of the carp and the tench too - I did get the tench on film though so maybe for another time 🤔

[@Blupa.]

Excellent Steve , 50’s from how many different countries now is it ??? 👌🏻👍

[@stevebriggs4638]

14 countries now :-)

[@Blupa.]

Steve briggs 👏👏👏 can’t see anyone ever beating that , that’s one hell of an achievement Steve , bravo 👏

[@colinmccallum6425]

Awesome briggsy, and well done Joan ❤️❤️❤️

[@stevebriggs4638]

Colin Mccallum thanks Colin

[@Itwasntalieitwastrueinmymind]

Ho Steve, What size boat?

[@stevebriggs4638]

[@badfishingbissanschlagdril3637]

Oh nice carp🎣💪🏻👍🏼 Greetz from Germany 🇩🇪✌🏻️ Check out my private fish pond vid🐟👀✌🏻️

[@pauledmonds3249]

Another superb film of Steve and Joan's globetrotting exploits. It's wonderful to see that Nash are ensuring that we don't just have books documenting Steve's continental fishing, but now many excellent videos. The foremost European angler of at least two generations deserves such a platform . Respected around the globe Steve has knowledge, experience, determination and innovation beyond that of us mere mortals. Long may it continue.

[@stevebriggs4638]

Paul Edmonds thanks Paul very kind words mate!! Glad you enjoyed the film 🙂👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

[@deepower5685]

Does anyone no how long steve Briggs has been married

[@stevebriggs4638]

Dee Power why not just ask me? We’re not married but me and Joan have been together 30 years now.

[@paulgoodey3478]

Top vid Steve, I used to fish the Tip lake in the 80s and my best sesh was a 23 , 25, and BB at 32. Great memories, i had a chat with you , think you used to fish the rats nest a bit ? Maybe wrong name, Then met you at Cassein went down when Paul Regent ran the coach with Kevin Maddocks in tow. Ive lived in Australia for the last 25 years and i still love sight fishing for carp in gin clear rivers with a fly rod now. Its been great watching your vids , and the sizes of the fish getting caught are mind blowing. I remember when Kevin Nash started out .... happy hooker products i think !, Great vids Steve and fantastic results.

[@stevebriggs4638]

Paul Goodey hi Paul really nice to hear from you. The old Tip Lake days were really special and I’ve got fond memories of those times. Yes it was the rats nest that I used to like fishing!! 🙂 and Cassien - I’m actually there now up the north arm, it’s still magical but as always the early years were the best 🎣🎣👍🏻🙂 fishing in Australia seems good these days I hear from people occasionally who love the quiet scene out there. Enjoy you’re fishing Paul and thanks 🙂👍🏻👍🏻

[@mattjones54]

Good watch Steve, why didn't u set up a beach caster set up for them off the top Steve

[@stevebriggs4638]

Matt Jones thanks Matt I just didn’t have the gear for any surface fishing with me.

[@simonparker1748]

I’ve been lucky enough to go the Hejlov Lake and your film does it justice. Jaroslav a lovely guy, he’s got a great shop as well.

[@stevebriggs4638]

Simon Parker thanks Simon we loved it there - what a fantastic lake - so pleased we finally went.

[@radekmil5094]

Hi Steve, excellent video as always... 👏👏👏 But..., much of “long” carps in this private lakes are stolen from Czech rivers, they are not from lakes, this ones was stolen during years from rivers..., it is river form of carp..., nobody can prove it, nobody wants to hear this true..., but it is sad truly... 😢😢😢
