Lovely Rudd mate in a wonderful place can’t beat it.I’m like you I could catch them all day 👍

Very enjoyable episode, your enthusiasm is infectious.

Absolutely fantastic Rich and Lloyd 🙏

You're lucky to find rudd in the wild. They hybridise with roach and lose their orangey bits. I've got some in my pond plus some in my aquarium. They're better than goldfish. Cleaner. They're keen eaters of my elidia densae. I've got tons of blackberries in the garden, if they fed my rudd then all well and good! Thanks for the video. Great watch, great hobby.

Great vid thank you for sharing.

Beautiful weedy lake. Stunning fish. Enjoyed watching that. A lovely reminder of summer on a wet autumn evening!

[@underwatersweden]

All of your videos are top class, brilliant! I will certainly try blackberries as a bait this year.

[@jaymakes]

Loved this! Love rudd and blackberries are a great bait. But elderberries are the one for me had a few 3lbers on elderberries. Every new venue I go now I will always see what trees are in the margins to see what naturals they could be eating as they fall in the water, weither it be roach and chub in the river or carp and rudd on still waters. Great video guys like where you going with these. Keep them coming!

[@Fishwish]

What a beautiful lake and fish.

[@Broadlandkingfisher]

I've been so looking forwards to seeing this and it didn't disappoint. I spend hours chasing big Rudd and think they are just so enigmatic. Thanks Rich, really cheered me up in this crazy world!!

[@all-roundanglerwithrichwil6161]

Thanks so much Rob

[@colinjohnson7637]

Proper fishing is this.

[@wonkylommiter6364]

Have caught chub on blackberries in autumn, they love them.

[@barrycoppinger339]

Great to see some Rudd fishing. Has to be my favourite species, also really enjoy the interactive element of fishing on the drop. Enjoyed the video, hopefully you get back to that pool as suspect it holds some real clonkers. Thanks .

[@martinb6751]

Great vid, love that you caught them on blackberries, ace. 👍

[@saddb]

[@dankelly4359]

Brilliant as alway really look forward to your videos 🐟🐟

[@SimonCrow]

Great watch mate

[@all-roundanglerwithrichwil6161]

Cheers Crowey mate

[@rrshowtime3900]

In areas with blackberry bushes overhanging the water they usually work. I've caught Roach, Skimmers and Chub on them in the past. Mostly Chub. Notts Canal, Clifton area near boots factory.

[@all-roundanglerwithrichwil6161]

Cheers mate, I’m looking forward to trying them for chub

[@darwindavies2114]

Great watch as always guys 👊👊👊

[@andylamude3932]

Really good video, again. Rudd are an amazing fish. Where you fishing on the bottom or up in the water? Rudd on the dry fly is really good fun as well

[@all-roundanglerwithrichwil6161]

I’m fishing up in the water, trying to get them to take it on the drop 👍

[@andylamude3932]

@@all-roundanglerwithrichwil6161 thank you

[@leec9435]

Great vid again rich. Was up on Bradley’s in the cotswolds last year and had a 3lb 8oz Rudd. Shame it was on the carp gear but an amazing fish.

[@Crapdraw1]

Green grass , no snow and an ice free lake .....bliss

[@nigelthompson4758]

I had over 20pound of roach on elderberries,I gave it a go as a joke because I had a big elderberry bush overhanging my swim ..

[@jasonmcbride3916]

he sounds like Harry Charington's love child

[@alexholm9781]

I know what you mean when you say "in the weeds" because I've lost a 3 pound rudd once due to it swimming in to the weeds. They are smarter than you think

[@callumhubbard4423]

My kind of fisherman respects all fish not just big carp on private syndicate lakes that the public will have very little of not no access to

[@stevedilloway7004]

Just for qualification he owns the lake
