[@TFRSloth]

Okay cheers mate@@fishwithcarl

[@twoxwish7166]

Man. Those large mouth bass fishing yall did back in the days was my favourite series. I'm glad to see yall back together with jon again.

[@fishwithcarl]

Glad you enjoyed it man :)

[@ThomasSloan-kz9fu]

Carl and Alex together will always bring a smile on our faces, great vid lads ❤

[@fishwithcarl]

Thank you!!!! Makes me happy to fish with Alex and Jon again too! :)

[@tadhghayden7601]

For sure...soul mates...

[@Lucky32Luke]

I love that both of you are helping the other. Such a great example of brothers in arms type of thing. I love both of your channels for separate reasons just as the both of you are different in some ways and could be awarded for resilience and originality. Only a very few youtuber has the gratitude to credit others as much you both do. Carl, it is no shame in breaking out from you comfort zone once in a while. Cooking is fun! Rewarding to see others enjoying your food. In the same time Alex should do some more fishing once in a while...

[@fishwithcarl]

❤ massively appreciate that

[@lunada7127]

Two quite different but equally talented filmmakers/fishermen, love the collabs with Jon!

[@CharlieDoesFishing1]

Great video, great accomplishment and sick collab. Carl, Jon and Alex formidable force

[@deedontworry]

Thank you mate!

[@skaramanger_144]

Really nice to see you both together again

[@fishwithcarl]

Happy you enjoyed it! :)

[@danielgilbert7607]

Really good video guys😀smashed it. Looks like a cracking trip. Nice to see the OGs back together FYI; bananas are thought to be bad luck on boats because back in the older days when fruit/veg was moved on boats, bananas would rot quicker and in turn make the other fruit/veg around it rot also. Hence why they’re bad luck 😁

[@marshallart113]

Great to see you boys back together.. wicked vid 🤘

[@fishwithcarl]

Thanks mate!

Another great vid on one of my “bucket” fish, but it’s hard to take “getting up early to go down the canal” seriously, it conjurs memories of scratching for gudgeon from the Grand Union!

[@fishingwithandyloble]

Superb edit. Off to join Ben Hervey Murray fishing on the Cali Coast line in Ocotber. This has got me a tad more excited. Perhaps you can come out at the same time. Leopard sharks, Black Bass, sharks, bat rays etc.....

[@fishwithcarl]

[@brockfordjunktion]

Yes lads!

[@josephscott4997]

It’s so nice to see Alex again😛

[@fishwithcarl]

:)

[@TheCaptainbeefylog]

In my experience, bigger baits often mean bigger fish, BUT the bigger fish has to be there to start with. There's no use throwing a huge lure or flesh bait if there's nothing around that is big enough to take it.

[@ruzziasht349]

12:50 love how he holds the fish straight out towards the camera to make it seem much larger, whilst showing only his finger tips so as not to have giant hands.

[@Alexander711]

I came here to look at fish, not hands.

[@HarryScarpfishing]

Love the vids👍👍
