[@fishwithcarl]

Incredible mate! So happy that our video inspired you. ❤

[@TeamCarpFishing]

@@fishwithcarl you have no idea how humbled I am to have seen your comment. It has been a journey of filmaking for the last 4 years, and it all started with the reservoir diaries and the dale hollow trip inspiring me! Thank you for everything you do! Much love from Canada 🇨🇦

[@FRJustBeingMe]

fk sakes, i wrote a massive reply saying your an inspiration and it got deleted cause i reloaded my page🥲🥲🥲, love your videos though, happy to see you in the comments, i never would have imagined it.... For real though, i started fishing 2 years ago after finding your videos but either way i cant fish as much as i would have wanted due to school, ive just finished highschool😀😀😀😀😀 and happy to say i got accepted at my dream school .

I am so happy to have come across your channel, such good quality videos, really well made. No idea how you only have 2,000 subscribers. All the best and keep making these fantastic videos!

I'm an American living in Romania for the last 8 years. I have a love for salt water fishing and fresh water fishing. Never have I fished for carp in America. It wasn't even a thought. After moving to Romania, I've taken up carp fishing and have been taught by my local friends. Finally, I have an idea of what I'm doing and have a great appreciation for the sport. Now I want to find the big fish! Thanks for taking time to make these videos. I appreciate it. Maybe some day, we'll fish together. Until then fir întins !

[@TeamCarpFishing]

Thats awesome William, Romania has quite a few good waters to explore, all depending in which part of the country you're in. I started fishing for carp in Romania as a child and early teen, then came to Canada where I stopped for many years. Then around 10 years ago, it all came full circle and I started almost exclusively fishing for carp. All the best, fir intins!

Austin and Brian some of americas top fisherman to share the bank with. Awesome you got to share the bank with them! Great video they’re always cracking jokes 🤣 Sometimes you got to switch the bait up different brands get you a better chance

[@TeamCarpFishing]

Yes!! Austin & Brian are not just passionate anglers, but also hilarious! Cheers

[@streetcat1510]

❤ the night time lapse sequences, also fishing a Tic infested island must be pretty scary. new subscriber.🇬🇧

[@TeamCarpFishing]

Thank you, I really enjoy making timelapses! As for the ticks, unfortunately some area in Canada and the US have many ticks, and lyme disease is a big concern. Luckly we didnt get any ticks dug in on us, but i did find one crawling on my hand the first day!

[@tomwilshaw]

What a wicked place, and a wicked film! Fair play mate, proper fishing :-)

[@TeamCarpFishing]

Thanks Tom, means alot coming from you! Always looking forward to your new films!

a colab between you guys would be rlly cool, obviously would be a lil difficult but hey, as a fan of you both hope this could be taken into consideration????? I would defo watch it😄😄😄😄😄😄

Nice to see a new DH video. BZring back good time there

[@TeamCarpFishing]

The place is special, definately worth traveling to fish it!

[@CanadianCarpinHolidays]

@TeamCarpFishing Yes been there now 7 times

[@WilliamMuschett]

Paul, once again, you have outdone yourself again with another incredibly well shot, National Geographic tier documentary with a bit of fishing mixed in! Bravo!

[@TeamCarpFishing]

Thanks for the kind words Will! Appreciate the ongoing support! 🙌

[@southcarp2717]

Thanks for this quality video! I can't stop dreaming to fish over there one day...

[@TeamCarpFishing]

Glad you enjoyed it! The place is magical and worth going to at least once in a lifetime!

[@southcarp2717]

Sadly, planning a carpfishing trip oversea is not cheap and easy but I had chance to fish in several places on the west coast like Lake Washington, Banks Lake, CJ Strike & Blackfoot. DH is definitively on my to-do list 🤞

[@RalphBarton-fishing]

Being from upstate new york, I've always been into walleye, smallies, trout, salmon, and muskies.... I stumbled on their video from dale hollow some years back. Which is what peaked my interest in carp fishing... I started really concentrating on carp fishing here on my home town river (the susquehanna) I also stumbled on your channel and as a small time youtuber myself. I really appreciate the effort you put into your videos and telling the story... It's not easy... KZbin is a fickle place ... With as good as your videos are I'm not sure why your channel hasn't exploded... well anyways keep it up and if ever in upstate feel free to hit me up

[@TeamCarpFishing]

Thanks Ralph, thats awesome you've gotten into carp fishing, its really something else! As for youtube, it is difficult but I do it so I have these videos to look back on in the future, the channel doing well is secondary! Make sure you reach out to me on insta, so I have your contact. I will def be back in the us, not sure when!!! Good luck and tight lines!

[@poziloc]

Still Awesome!! My twin brother and I have been there once the year before Covid lockdowns. We been planning to go back. It a fantastic lake. Great Video.

[@TeamCarpFishing]

It is a wicked place indeed! Definately worth it to go back!

[@alberta_carper]

[@timmarshall7903]

Great video, Paul. Pleased you all caught from your two locations. The boat-in approach seems the way to ensure more success these days!

[@TeamCarpFishing]

Thanks Tim, the boat just gives you the most freedom, abeit the more expensive option. Once you start using one its hard to go back to shore access spots only!

[@justinjohnson8853]

“I couldn’t be f***** happier” was the best saying 🤣🤣

[@TeamCarpFishing]

It was a relief, so many days waiting for a 30lb fish... and then it happened!

[@todddavis4203]

me and my buddy fished there a few years ago, 6 1/2 days......blanked.....that was the longest 6 hour drive home I've ever had

[@TeamCarpFishing]

Brutal, I've been there, I've blanked 4 days one time, it was a hard lesson learned, but i did get one the 4th night, it was bittersweet. Its a character building experience!

[@notfinancialadvice3179]

Man I love the video I'm actually planning on making a trip out there myself about 7 minutes and 3 seconds into the video you're talking about the bait and various attractants can you elaborate on where they get the attractions

[@TeamCarpFishing]

I'm glad you liked the video and are planning a trip, it's a great lake! As for the attractants, I think they were from the American Carp Society. You can also check with Big Carp Tackle, they have many baits and attractants available. Hope you have an awesome trip!

[@notfinancialadvice3179]

[@soad4jt589]

I have a question, a serious question I need to figure this out...Have you noticed a better bite rate/ catch rate with different fishing lines? I seemed to have better results with a brown mono on most waters...but Then I got some green braid, and I had the best results with that..and Past year I went back to brown mono, and I catch way less...SoI am wondering what is the best line to use?

[@soad4jt589]

This question can be two parts, one on dhl line to use, and general use line to use? But I had better results everywhere with the braid. including dale hollow.

[@FRJustBeingMe]

@@soad4jt589 rlly? ive had better with mono, although i fish in england, so most likely also depends on the environment the fish grow in and how the line reflect tht environment, dont rlly know for sure though..........

[@TeamCarpFishing]

I have not noticed line making a difference. I have fished mono and braid of different colors and I think as long as your linelay is good, some leadcore on the final section, it should yield same results. Saying this its very difficult to say with certainty that it doesn't make a difference as there are so many variables in fishing, its hard to keep the tesr 100% consistent!

[@soad4jt589]

@@TeamCarpFishing well it's good to hear opinions. I have thought I did better on mono, then better on braid. so i dont know.

Really enjoyed the video and just a little constructive criticism… I don’t think the F words are necessary for Fishing video. I swear a lot in my day to day life I’ll admit lol but if I’m documenting something I prefer it a little cleaner as I enjoy watching videos with my daughter and I’m sure others would as well. But phenomenal job on the fishing, editing and production

@@TeamCarpFishing just finished a fishing session recently, blanked, prolly cause i didnt pre bait but anyway, i think i found one of the largest koi ever, genuinely massive, i am confident in saying 40+lbs, best part is that its a completely private lake, no one has access to it so ive got it to myself basically cause im very good freinds with the guy who takes care of it, i plan to fish it this sat and on thursday and friday ill go prebait. Wish u luck on wht ur planning or hopefully recording and editing for ur next vid.

@ thats crazy! A 40lb koi is special! Its just a matter of time, you will get your chance! Also I am most definitely editing my most mega trip ever, will be out soon!
