I really enjoyed this video. Acton Burnell is stunning. The bird song in the video creates a great atmosphere and really makes you want to visit there.

[@SimonCrow]

It sure is a beautiful place Kevin

Hi Simon I'm new to carp fishing I have my first video Coming soon would appreciate any tips and advice.... Please keep an eye out for my first cero fishing video 👍

[@douglasfayers5554]

You don't use anti tangle tubing Simon ; why is this ?

[@SimonCrow]

douglas fayers Cus I don’t see a reason to use it. It doesn’t stop tangles or protect the flanks of the fish (unless you use tiny rigs). Hitting the clip, feathering the cast, using bags/stringers etc stops tangles 👍

[@moomoomoo8406]

How I’m 12 and I’m new to fishing I went for the first time yesterday so thankyou for this advice

[@SimonCrow]

Moomoo Moo I hope you caught loads 👍

[@moomoomoo8406]

Simon Crow I only caught one little one but I was so exited because it was my first fish but I’m going again today

[@stephenlivesley1267]

Enjoyed that Simon... Thanks.... I was always an advocate of heavy backleads fixed to curtain rings..... You didn't lose too much on indication then it was immediate.... The large diameter ring prevented them from fouling on silkweed and stuff on the line most of the time.... Beautiful low thirty mate well done....

[@SimonCrow]

Stephen Livesley great tip Stephen, thanks for commenting mate

[@pshunreal.2825]

I'd love to get on somewhere like this, My club water has carp to 28lb and similar everywhere i go, I'm Derbyshire i know of A1 pits and Cromwell, Anywhere else??? Cheers

[@SimonCrow]

Psh! ,Unreal. Loads of good northern venues mate, try Tyram Hall or the Manton complex

[@alanhaigh9682]

I'm old skool, you don't need any heavier than 3lb test in the uk

[@paulfranciosi647]

Always great videos .But if your a nice person even better. well obviously I'm a carp fanatic of 40yrs its like been a kid again watching proper an angler who knows how to present .Honestly keep them coming and thank you for the kind reply.

[@SimonCrow]

Paul Franciosi that’s really kind paul, thanks for watching and the nice comment too 👍

[@vladimirlojka3740]

Great video and super Carp Fishing.

[@SimonCrow]

Vladimír Lojka thank you Vladimir

[@allanweaver7577]

Love your approach Simon.Always catching on simple rigs and not like the rest of them trying to push the latest all singing and dancing rig to sell more rig components.I mean the Ronnie rig! Whats all that about.Did you not get any tangles mate using the soft hooklink with no tubing or leader?

[@SimonCrow]

Allan Weaver cheers mate, so long as you feather the cast, use the clip or a bag it works fine 👍

[@feelthedonk8800]

Great video Simon 👍🏽

[@topnotch7570]

👍👌

[@beasbadges8827]

Simon your clearly a brilliant angler you catch loads. Why do you have your rods so high? Is us so you can play fish under your lines.

[@SimonCrow]

was john lots of reasons mate, but mainly to keep the lines up off the bottom and away from obstructions. I’m a big believer of having a sensitive set up and a direct line does this

[@douglasfayers5554]

Great vids Simon .I would like to ask you why you use such a short hair ? The hair on your rig you show here is about 6 mm long . Is this so it cannot wrap round the hook on the cast ?

[@SimonCrow]

douglas fayers Thanks mate. Mostly because a hair is used to simply separate the hook from the bait, nothing more. A short hair ensure the hook is close to the bait so when the fish picks it up it has a better chance of hooking 👍

[@vladimirlojka3740]

Great video and super Carp Fishing.

[@paulfranciosi647]

No ego just fishing no promoting the hell out of products just fishing.Nice one.

[@SimonCrow]

Paul Franciosi thank you Paul

[@spillebeenkenny7120]

Hello Simon why such short hairs on your rigs? Greets Kenny

[@SimonCrow]

So the hook has a better chance of hooking

[@kierangunn4568]

Swans can really get on your nerves occasionally, but you cant beat the feeling when you for instance see a snagged baby and help get it free and swim back to his 5 brothers and sister and parents :D

[@steveshurey8618]

Very enjoyable Simon , thanks 👍

[@SimonCrow]

Steve Shurey Thanks Steve

[@johnshrimpton135]

Great vlog and what a stunning lake and well done on the swan rescue !

[@SimonCrow]

john shrimpton thank you John

[@andrep1784]

Good Angling as always. Almost what we expect from you...no pressure ;) The swan situation was handled beauifully. I know several people that dont come too close to this birds, for sure not when they have baby's. If you truly without fear, you can face them almost like a dog you have never seen before. If you just imagine how dangerous they can be this will not happen, and you can get hurt. Amazing little bit of wildlife keeping you did there.

[@SimonCrow]

Thanks Andre, I think they knew we were there to help them, they'd been stuck behind the fence for several hours and the babies just wouldn't move. I saw them on the lake yesterday and it's lovely to see them almost fully grown now (this was filmed about six weeks back). Thanks for commenting mate

[@Carlfishing]

[@SimonCrow]

Norfolkc 😂😴🤗

[@chrisc3197]

​ Simon Crow Low Pressure Low Cloud what difference does that make what would the pressure difference be then

[@richardbarrett7544]

Simon. It looks in all your videos as if you're going against convention with keeping your rods very high, and as much line off the water as possible. I understand it in weed, but in your mind do you think it's better with tight lines to let the fish see and touch the line, rather than have back leads and tubing. I've seen you do this at all the places you fish, Spitfire the estate lake and where you caught Pinky. If you get time could you elaborate on your thoughts, rather than a quick reply I'm very interested in your thinking Simon, you sure catch a lot of fish!

[@SimonCrow]

Richard Barrett morning Richard, I’ll have to do a video on this one I think as it’s a question I often get asked. There’s lots of ways of looking at it. I remember Rod Hutchinson once writing about using bright yellow line saying it works because ‘imagine walking into a dark room and bumping your head on something you didn’t see. Now walk into that dark room when you see a bright line, it’s not so much of a shock if you see it cus you just duck under it”. His example certainly gets you thinking 👍

[@richardbarrett7544]

@@SimonCrow I wish you would. I know its difficult doing something to order, but it's they why you do it I'm interested in. Almost vertical line is like float fishing, but only works really close in like you were at Spitfire I'd bet. At distance you're simply keeping the line off the water and tight. Very interesting Simon. Richard.

[@DaveBoothangler]

@@SimonCrow now that is a brilliant thought process...and the amount of fish you catch ...its deffo worth trying in my own fishing...👍👍

[@georgestacklebox1791]

Where are you fishing at

A great looking place, stunning fish, and a bit of carpy karma there at the end helping Mr & Mrs Swan out. Those littleuns will soon be necking down those beds of boilies up the shallows, and your name will be mud........lol!

[@SimonCrow]

I know mate, lol, they'll probably be doing my baits too

[@liquidoslakki]

Nice! You managed to film a part of the take, just as I was hoping you would! And drill of course. Good angling once again, Simon!

[@SimonCrow]

liquidoslakki thank you mate 👍

[@ParaDaz82]

Nice one Crowey. You never fail to amaze me. Helping that family of swans back to their natural environment is inspiring. It's not always about catching carp, it's about being at one with nature and embracing your surroundings. Don't think any of the other so called big names would have done what you did. Your an absolute credit to our sport. Brilliant hit of fish, top watercraft and angling. Thanks again for another amazing vlog

[@SimonCrow]

Daz Edmonds thanks for the lovely words Daz, glad you enjoyed the blog 👍

[@rossgorton540]

Brilliant vid again as always Simon, you make a lot of lakes look easy and I always look forward to your vids, love the decision to stay on tight lines better to have one rod buzzing with a 100% strike rate that go slack maybe get a few more bites but run the risk of losing fish to the weed, top angling as norm. Hats off to you as well you always take time to reply to these comments, to many big names and companies don’t reply and a lot of these on here are young lads the future of our great sport. Top guy

[@SimonCrow]

Thanks for the lovely comment Ross. I was brought up to treat people how you'd like to be treated yourself. It's only carp fishing and it only takes a second to thank someone.

[@Mattp36fishing]

Hi Simon, nice video. Did you use those extremity rods on your trip to the orient? I'm looking for a new set of rods and will be playing the fish and dropping rigs from a boat so don't need a rod that is too tippy. Thanks
