Who can’t wait to get out Fishing when Lockdown is lifted??!! What will you try and catch?

[@janics95]

Big Pollock off the kayak is what I'm looking forward to!

[@sibwraith1682]

It'll be nice just to be out on the bank again :)

[@Ms-Vlogs.]

Perch and Tench on the float

[@adamwilliams8039]

Had a tough time in the family of late, with cancer and plans being dashed by the virus. I used to just lure and fly fish, but I've dug out the old carp gear, bought some beach gear and I'm coming for everything that swims as soon as this is over!

[@rhino5419]

Hello Graeme. Mike has just revealed the main ingredient of raptor oil . Lol. After all these yrs of keeping the secret. But i'm sure we don't know it all. Good health and stay safe.

[@michaelbyrne9737]

You said it Graeme! It's TA o'clock! The cleaning can wait. It's time to unwind....and a beer ofcourse!!

[@RENDEZVOO]

Thank you, Graeme, for keeping us all entertained during this difficult time. Since I've been watching your youtube videos my wife has now taken an interest too. We look forward to the next one......even if it is clearing drains...lol

[@LightYerPipe]

I can remember when we used to go night fishing in my teens back in the 70's we would catch Eels that sort of size on a regular basis, now you are very lucky to even see an Eel that size. So i say well done Graeme be proud of that one. Thank you for keeping me sane with another film.

[@beardwierd2783]

LightYerPipe yeah used to bring them back for my nan she used to keep them in a bathtub of fresh water to flush them through and then made jellied eels out of them, thems the days.

[@markholbrook3949]

I must admit when your fishing gets slow it becomes very relaxing on this side of the monitor... Just watching you prepare your meal or as you trigger some interesting thoughts as you spew your knowledge in our direction!!

[@anthonybyrne3825]

Good man Mr. Pullen great to see your active always enjoy the video’s , all the best and keep safe from 🇮🇪

[@stuarthall8946]

Cracking eel, haven’t caught one like that for years

[@grahamnash9794]

Really glad you have a healthy backlog of videos to post. I'd been insane by now without you frequent releases. Love the skimmers from 2nd half , fin perfect. A joy to behold.

I agree those Bream are in exceptional condition.

[@wparo]

Nice video. Thank you for uploading. Good luck next time. I live in Surrey some nice lakes here for fishing. I hope to see you oneday in Earlswood common

[@scotsmaninthephilippines1659]

Graham, good one, takes me back more years than I care to remember. Thanks for the diversion during this time of quarantine

[@hjo538]

Tips to keep the eels calm is grab them in newspaper and they stop wiggling. I’m not sure why but it works for me and never harms it. Hope it helps for people.

[@TAFishing]

They just like a good read...calms them down.

[@leej4914]

awesome as always Graeme thanks for yet another vid and hope all the family are well to

[@83jbbentley]

Way to make the quarantine more enjoyable, cheers.

[@jaystretch01]

Very lucky that here in Ohio, USA, despite being on lockdown, our government has said it’s OK to get out and fish...provided we keep 6’ distant from each other! I hope the authorities in the UK open things up enough to let you guys out fishing, soon. Mostly though, I hope you all are staying healthy. Love the videos, Graeme, been a fan for a long time, you and Haight’s Wanderings are raising the KZbin fishing channel bar!

[@chrisuk1000]

Thank goodness for your TA videos through this isolation period. Been hammering them for the UK fishing. Many thanks.

[@roryparlin2414]

Thanks for the videos Graeme. It’s keeping us motivated over here in the States. Stay safe

[@hunter111uk]

It was amazing to see how quiet was your large Eel. The last time I caught one I was fishing on the bottom for Carp using meat. I netted it and a few seconds later it had bitten through my line, bitten through my net and returned to the water! I was very pleased to see the back of it!

[@richardcole9558]

I always find when your pouring a cup of hot coffee or balancing the cup on your knee a sure way of getting a bite ...usually with disastrous results ! ...thanks for lock down relief ..

[@LightYerPipe]

I know that feeling well.

[@thebobs8845]

Glad it's not just me!! :)

[@MrZ00k]

20 years ago I`d only see the Kite in Wales, great to see them every where now! If I was fishing now...blanked, that Kite would make up for it!

[@burtlangoustine1]

Good man.

[@jonsmyth3331]

So grateful for these videos right now. Graeme cheers me right up and makes me laugh...

[@TAFishing]

More to come,at least its something to watch that is fishing.

[@hooverbelt]

Thanks so much , keep the films coming ! When I watch I can forget the madness that's taken over .

[@TAFishing]

Could be another film up tomorrow and trying to finish one for Sunday..all helps distract us from this surreal world of the unknown. Last Christmas everything was as usual..within 10 weeks the whole world is shut down.

16:18 Canadian here, depends entirely on where you are fishing as rules differ from province to province and area to area. Some place allow 3 rods or more and other places 1 rod with a single barbless hook.

mate you have made me so hungry so cooked the same lol, great vid mate !!

[@Trust1878]

Just discovered your videos after getting back to fishing myself. That gas burner looks great, might get one.

[@gazd1972]

Why do some people think he’s out fishing.? Is it not possible the man has films stored from previous fishing trips?

[@gazd1972]

Totally agree mate. Typical of people not thinking before jumping on the keyboard and putting the guy down for trying to do something good.

[@rokhnroll]

@Optic Axis You got this spot on, Graeme has even stated numerous times in the last few videos he has upwards of 30 films in his locker ready to be unleashed on us.

[@gardy-ik8be]

Some people are just fools

[@VALIS538]

Not one comment saying they think his fishing outside, think you jumped the gun bud

[@rokhnroll]

@@VALIS538 A reply from Graeme 'No problem,about another 28 fishing films still on file to go up .I have now decided just to delete those with a lack of brain cells that think the films are done in the lockdown..Its far easier just to remove them with one click as I could spend the rest of my life trying to explain that I probably hold more unused fishing films on my hard drives than anyone else. They just don't get it.'

Nice view of the kite...! Bacon cooking top tip, fold it three times and you can get a hole packet in the pan 👍 Good content as always....! 😀

[@kevintaylor7234]

Can't wait to get back on the river kennet. At aldermaston mill. A beautiful place to fish and nice owners. Peter has retired i believe. A lovely man and always put you in the right place for my favourite fish the barbel. Love you films. You are a legend like the great john wilson who i was lucky enough to fish with on the river wensum.

[@masterofurdisaster]

I don't know why but I like it when you cook out there especially bacon

[@TAFishing]

It always seems to taste better when its cooked outside.

[@ulamkencana7550]

Nice video of carp fishing...

[@chrisramm1]

a rare catch nowadays,

[@Fishing-io2gh]

Great, good luck

[@jamessix60]

You have some interesting techniques over there. Never saw anyone slingshot bait here in Ohio. I'm gonna have to rig me something up for that. Have any leads on where to get one or did you make yours. Thanks for the video. Be well.

[@jakesturgess2259]

England's largest bird is the mighty White Tailed Eagle, also known as the sea eagle or the 'flying barn door'. It has a wingspan of 2.5m :)

[@Sithehandyguy-London]

Disgraceful Graeme.. after all that effort with the bacon, egg and mushrooms, you didn't have pre buttered bread for the butty... Tut tut... Great videos as always. Reminds me of the great days fishing with my dad..

[@thewanderingwatkins7246]

Hi, I'm looking at doing a bit of course fishing when this is all over, but do you still need a licence to fish private lakes?

[@LightYerPipe]

Most definitely. One poor chap last year thought on the same lines, thought he didn't need a Rod licence on private waters but, the Bailiff came around with the local constabulary in tow checking licences, this one chap didn't have one, had all his expensive Carp kit confiscated. If i recall correctly there is a video on YT somewhere.

[@thewanderingwatkins7246]

Ah cool, glad I asked i looked at the goverment page and it didn't seem that clear. I sea fish at the moment but am looking at fishing private lakes. Thanks for the advise.

[@grahamgfm]

Graeme, in Africa (Zim) our go too baits for Barbel / Vundu, what you call Catfish was as follows. Fresh water Mussels, Kapenta, (or any small fish like Sardines / Sprats, and the coup de grace was …...Soap, green soap. The really greasy, animal fat soap.

[@fishingvideosbykaine1072]

Excellent video after the lockdown is over you should try surface fish with mushrooms

[@numptyjames1]

l had a 9- 1/4 lb Ell on a worm on a Sundridge great rod

[@geoffcaptaincpaige1167]

Yes. I have caught carp on garlic buttered button mushrooms.

[@adamfc7452]

Carp to try and catch graham 🔥💯

[@markod1719]

Is this skimmer white bream, silver bream (blicca bjoerna) or common bream ( abramis brama)?

[@LightYerPipe]

Probabaly common Bream. (Abramis brama).

[@kenshores9900]

Interesting to watch. What do you do with the elks. Do you eat the carp? You should come to the states sometime and fish Texas and Louisiana fresh and salt waters. Thanks you fill in the voids of in house confinement.

[@LightYerPipe]

In the UK everything goes back on the rivers and coarse lakes, Trout fisheries you normally pay per tally of fish. For example you can book a ticket from 1 - 4 fish and pay for what you want to catch. Even then some Trout fisheries have catch and return. Over here we only have small lakes as we are just a small island we don't have the vast area's water like in the States.

[@chrisprobert6]

Thanks for entertaining us again with a great video. Would have been good seeing a wels. That was the biggest freshwater eel I've ever seen. Did u weigh it? I know you don't often weigh fish, what would you have estimated it to be ?

[@LightYerPipe]

I would say 3 - 4lb. Used be able to catch these on regular basis but lucky to see one that size now.

[@austinblackwell3567]

Sometimes get golden eagles up here in the lakedistrict seen one at wasdale a few years back

[@reddeaddaily62]

Great video (y)

[@JareddarArt]

Rare catch big eels. Great fun to catch but a real problem unhooking.

[@TheMeta6]

To unhook, lay it on the ground and turn it on its back and stroke it out into a straight line... They sort of go to sleep. Makes life a lot easier, doesn't help with deep hooking though!

Graeme. I've been fishing twice this week on your behalf, there was next to no one about. The fish are teasing me, as soon as I pack up the bubbles arrive and they splash the surface.

Bait is the priority for me. Probably from doing too much Big Game fishing years ago when everything was eaten by something else.

[@jus4funtim]

Next time you fish for cat fish try some chicken wing tips / drum-lets deboned, they've always worked for me.

[@mk1aquatic739]

That eel looked maybe 4lb, decent alright. Unusual in the day as well. All those little twitchy takes you missed could be eels as well, perhaps they're daytime feeders in that lake. Had that happen on some lakes when pike fishing with deadbaits, twitchy takes you can't connect with.

[@TAFishing]

I had that feeling as well. In retrospect I think I would have had more using much smaller pieces of bluey or mackerel and scattering some small pieces around the hookbait.

[@mk1aquatic739]

@@TAFishing yeah it'd be interesting to try and target them with say half a small roach or skimmer as bait if it's allowed, especially if they're willing to feed in the day as I guess like most day ticket places, they don't allow night fishing there.

[@LightYerPipe]

@@TAFishing In my youth we used fish two rods one with half a Gudgeon and the other with a huge bunch of Lob worms for big Eels. It's been well over a decade since i've seen an Eel that size.

[@northernlight40]

You are right Graham one rod rule in Canada unless you are ice fishing the crazy thing is Carp are seen as vermin and there is no limit on catching or killing them even bow fishing for them but you can only use on rod which really makes no sense as it’s rare to catch anything else while using boilies

[@VectraStevieB]

I am a brown sauce guy and that eel was a beauty. One question I have would there be any action from a float setup? Only watched upto 18 minutes so far
