awesome awesome awesome .. very enjoyable👍

[@adventurefishinguk]

Thanks John, really glad you enjoyed it!

[@CBCB78]

Breathtaking mate. There’s no better way to spend a day trecking round exploring, fresh air and a fishing rod. Living the dream

[@adventurefishinguk]

Thanks mate! I do like being out and about exploring, it's the best place to be 👍

[@FDGRebel]

Amazing video, same year similar here in NI in the Mourne mountains as reservoirs that had flooded areas years before dried up and exposed roads etc underneath, such history, was great to watch this and see what happened to Mardale. Fishing looked epic too, always amazes me how far you can cast that little spinner :) keep up the good work

[@adventurefishinguk]

Places like this are really cool to see when the water is low aren't they! It can be quite eerie. Thanks for watching!

[@QuakerJones268]

A friend of mine lives not too far from here. She was telling me her partners Great Grandad used to live in Mardale Village prior to the flooding. Apparently it affected him for many years having to move away from a place he loved. Some nice Perch you landed there mate, next time I'm up that way I will take my rod and spinners.

[@adventurefishinguk]

Thanks mate, always worth a go with the rods. I did well on the fact that so many lives were changed forever when it happened, it’s a part of the history of the lakes that isn’t often talked about!

[@I.have.an.std.]

My local reservoirs had the same the other day was walking along an old wall and found a load of lures and had a trout 😁 went back the next day with the metal detector and it had completely filled up after heavy rain that night. Over 6 ft of water in a few hours was slightly gutted as I couldn’t metal detect but was still awsome keep up the good work

[@adventurefishinguk]

I wish I’d have taken a metal detector with me I’m sure I’d have found some interesting bits and bobs. I didn’t see any lures around but no doubt there will have been some around! Sounds like you had a good trip

[@mrb9320]

Great location 👍

[@adventurefishinguk]

Thanks mate!

[@feralgrandad4429]

Best, most interesting fishing video I've seen on KZbin for ages. Great upload, thanks for sharing George.

[@adventurefishinguk]

Thank you! This is one of my favourite videos on the channel, really gets a good sense of adventure in my opinion. I’m glad you liked it

[@and1cardsuk733]

Brilliant mate looks a cracking day out!

[@adventurefishinguk]

Thanks mate I appreciate the comment!

[@johnloxley8705]

Love the video George …. That’s well low ain’t it !!!.. Just goes to show how things change. … Certainly been a lot of that over the last 18 months or so !! It’s been a while since I was there and looks very strange … still … it looks as beautiful a place as ever and that 3rd perch you had was really colourful. .. Keep them vids coming young man and all the best to you and yours 👍🏽🎣👍🏽🎣👍🏽😀😀😀

[@colingoode3702]

Stunning water made even more interesting with the low water levels. We went there back in early Sept & had tea in the hotel overlooking the water. The water was very low then. Fantastic views from high up on the hotel terrace & unlike all the other lakes / waters in the Lake District, it was not full of tourists!!

[@adventurefishinguk]

That sounds like a great day out, yeah it’s always quieter than most places in the Lakes. A hidden gem!

[@samcash123]

Excellent

[@adventurefishinguk]

Glad you enjoyed it mate!

[@peterleecatchpole1056]

wonderful again george i cant think of a better place anyone could want to fish it would be fantastic to overnight wild camp on the island too , im almost sure the structure at 15.35 secs is an old sheep dip looking at the length of it ,very pleasurable video again thank you

[@adventurefishinguk]

Thanks Peter, an amazing place isn't it! Im hoping to run guided trips on there this summer. It does look like a sheep dip i've had other people say the same. Thanks for watching!

[@japanesefishingadventures]

Mate what a video and obviously what a spot!! Really interesting to hear about the history!!

[@adventurefishinguk]

Thanks mate!

[@jonm4989]

Haweswater is a lovely part of the Lakes. I was there earlier in the summer walking High St and the lake was a lot higher back then. Great vid and thanks for posting.

[@adventurefishinguk]

Thanks for the comment mate I appreciate it!

[@jonm4989]

@@adventurefishinguk no problem keep up the good work 👍🏻

[@yorkshireteafan]

Interesting stripe patterns on some of those perch

[@adventurefishinguk]

Couldn’t agree more, some very unique looking fish 👍 thanks for watching!

[@martymc0679]

Was fishing here over last weekend...the difference is amazing! Fantastic video, really enjoyed watching it 👍

[@adventurefishinguk]

Thanks mate I appreciate that! Did you have any luck?

[@whitetonguefishing]

[@foylad4862]

New sub, came from the marina vids. Cool vid dude 👍

[@adventurefishinguk]

Thanks for watching mate, glad you enjoyed the video!

[@conzilmichael2703]

Great video mate! Really enjoyed watching this really nice spot and alot of history behind it also The fish jump out your hand quickly because they’re cold blooded and touching them with our hands is like pressing a hot iron onto them.

[@adventurefishinguk]

Thanks mate I appreciate that! Suppose that makes sense about the fish, I know i'd be jumping off if somoene had a hot iron on me 😂

[@TheEssexAnglerYT]

Great video mate! Incredible scenes!

[@adventurefishinguk]

Thanks mate glad you enjoyed the video!

[@jambobee]

[@ksav4330]

Crazy how empty it is now, hopefully it fills up again soon

[@adventurefishinguk]

I know! I’m sure it’ll be well up now after all this rain

[@teckelshuntingandgoldfinch108]

Good video Shame the fish are losing their habitat

[@adventurefishinguk]

Thank you! I'm sure with all this rain it'll be right back up again soon

[@bigblueboys]

this looks sickkk can’t wait how long is it?

[@adventurefishinguk]

about half an hour mate!

[@elev8dadventures-71]

What lines did you have spoiled on the reel George?

[@adventurefishinguk]

I can't remember sorry mate this one was filmed quite a while ago now!

[@holdingnamerequired4703]

This is a really cool video. How long have you been making videos for?

[@adventurefishinguk]

I used to mess around a bit earlier but I started properly last June, so a year and a half ish. Glad you enjoyed it!

[@BEN10TO10]

Do you ever fish with Mepps spinners and is there a difference between those and the Rotex ones ?

[@adventurefishinguk]

I do mate yeah I've found mepps don't cast as far as the savage gear rotted spinners, but they've got a smaller more natural presentation. Hope this helps!

[@fishingwithaodhancallaghan3637]

Been pike fishing yet first session I had this season was yesterday 3 pike biggest 10lb smallest 1lb

[@adventurefishinguk]

Nice one mate I’ve been out a couple of times lately had nothing that size

[@MichaelCampin]

That looked like a cattle trough

[@adventurefishinguk]

Yeah I agree!

[@kayak1969p]

The structure is an old horse trough m8

[@adventurefishinguk]

Good shout I think you're right 👍

[@enisazemi6533]

That fish just went like a bullet once you released it. He wasn't hanging around.

[@adventurefishinguk]

Must have been running late for something 😂

[@samcook4338]

You manage to catch anything today next to the pier?

[@adventurefishinguk]

Was that you fishing? Still there now mate haha not a single bite all day

[@samcook4338]

It was aye bugger all luck for us as well

[@davidprocter1585]

Outstanding, George! Don't apologise for the history lesson, there's more to fishing videos than catching fish (luckily for me!! 😩) Those perch are lean, mean fighting machines, I wonder if they deepen up in the late winter/early spring? Fascinating to see these places in low water levels, I was looking at a local reservoir today with the level down 18ft or so, there's features I never knew existed! Check out my latest, I could use the odd comment! 🤣

[@adventurefishinguk]

Thanks mate I’m glad you enjoyed the video! I’ll check it out tomorrow. Definitely about more than just the fishing for me too the adventure plays a big part

[@HedgeFly]

Old horse trough that

[@adventurefishinguk]

I thought it might’ve been a trough, hope you enjoyed the video 👍

[@johnloxley8705]

For god sake !!! I hate waiting !!! 🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄😬😬😬😬…. Ok !!! I will be patient !!! No … I can’t do it !!! 😬😬😬😬😬😬😬😬😬😬😬🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣. C’mon George !!! Ya can’t do this to ya fellow fisher-folk !!! This is painful !!!

Do you need a license to fish this

[@adventurefishinguk]

You need a license to fish any freshwater mate 👍

Almost 9 mins of nothing but rambling
