Hey love you and your brothers videos. What rod did you use in this?

Keep the videos coming Carl. 60 years old and still learning from your tutorials.

Love it guys you always inspired me to get out there and catch new species

[@andizgarta6773]

Freelining must be one of the most fun fishing methods. Excellent tutorial!

[@trevorcornes1056]

Lovely way to fish Carl, better than sitting behind static rods catching nothing 👍nice one

[@Zer0Visi0N86]

Hey Carl.... Remember if u dip ur bread in the water just before u cast it, then u can get atleast 5 meter more in the cast without the bread falling off :D

[@grandwonder5858]

But then once the bread is soaked in water it looses it buoyancy, doesn't it?

[@Immediatemaximo]

@@grandwonder5858 this wouldn’t matter as you’re casting into water anyway

[@Zer0Visi0N86]

@@grandwonder5858 Not for the first part of ur throw, and if u use the crust and not the white middle part of the bread, it will float long time on the surface and u can maby get 2 or more throws before it falls off ur hook. :D Hope this helps u

[@joemcnicholl4361]

@@Zer0Visi0N86 the white part??? What if your using brown bread or 50 50

[@Zer0Visi0N86]

@@joemcnicholl4361 if u use Brown/whole bread or just bread with fuld grain, it will dismantle itself real fast and fall off ur hook no matter how u use it becorse it has a low density in the gluten strains. Hope This make sens to u 😅😁🎣🎣

Floating breadcrust freelined works really well in the margins on my local lake. Is only shallow around 18-24" deep with the biggest fish in there in upper teens. But is good for an hour or two on the bank in the afternoon or evening with a float rod

[@needham831]

I agree Carl. Definitely one of the best, and also most fun ways to catch Carp. Simple and effective.

[@rsmt4727]

I have been fishing for years now (inspired by you guys) n even tho this is the most basic style of fishing you still make your vids soo interesting n somehow teach me something new each time great video !!!

[@carpadventures8052]

I just love the front cover of this video, I'm going out to the bank and trying free-lining today, really hope one of the big ones in the lake comes around. Thanks for the tips!

[@bobsanderson8792]

2nd time of watching. Went to my park lake yesterday inspired by your vid. Blanked though but had fish come up to my dog biscuit. Way more exciting than sitting behind three rods not knowing what’s going on below.

[@griffinwhite3418]

I’ve caught so many carp with this method, great video!

[@stevecrawley3348]

This is the first way i caught carp. I still go back to it as it is such a rush when you see your bait disappear and you strike. Another great video.

[@steveholds2844]

Love the video Took me back 30yrs My favorite way of carp fishing Moving the bread out the way to select the carp you wanted to catch done that many times Dip the bread in water just before casting out will gain extra Distance

1,10lbs common and 1, 4lbs tench cought using this method, one which is so simple but very effective. Big thanks to this guys tips and knowledge. I'm definitely going to fish like this more often.

[@opticummagnum]

I only used freelining for chub with grasshoppers in summertime, deadly when the water is clear. By the way catching grasshoppers is harder than the fishing for chub with this technique, basically it's a "live" fly fishing. Great fun and very simple fishing :)

[@shropshireladoutdoors743]

Try a big black slug

[@richardlefleur4957]

I grew up in Scotland and I learnt to fly fish first so this is my favourite way to fish for carp.

[@patchthesinclair5896]

I had my first fish on a fly in 1961 age 6 and now my main interest is new species on the fly, l was just wondering how to approach carp when I noticed your comment !

[@richardlefleur4957]

@@patchthesinclair5896 I was around the same age but my first fish on the fly was around 89-90. I moved to Essex in 97 and the way they fished seemed alien to me then I found out about this now I spend my summer months with just Rod, line, hook and bread and I love it!

[@richardlefleur4957]

@@patchthesinclair5896 I actually remember watching Matt Hayes using an actual fly rod and reel and a fly he'd tied to fish for carp on telly in the 90s probably still on KZbin somewhere, great watch. 👍

[@brummiesteve590]

Hi Carl, always impressed with your content and your presentation. No gobbledegook. Watched you for a few yrs now. Impressed how you and brother gave up jobs to follow your love for the sport. Hate match and pole fishing, its just not fishing. Fished for over 56 years and still learning. I get grandson to watch your videos as they are a great teaching tool. Great job lads.

[@fishingtutorials]

Thanks for the kind feedback Steve :) Much appreciated! I'm glad the films are helping your grandson too!

[@PRANKNATION957]

Awesome video guys love your channel and always have !!! This channel has always been a life saver when trying to master a skill or to get into another type of fishing !! Maybe I should bring a drone with me when I’m free lining 😂

Currently doing my first night session on my own, some deffo needed tactics I expect 😁❤️

[@crissingram9035]

It's a great way to fish I've had more this summer with free lining bread than I have any other way! Nothing like a bit of stalking on a nice day

[@sloveniangulash9314]

Best type of fishing for me! I always try to bait with floating pellets (bread or pop up on hook) . But if there's just a little bit of wind, your pellets will float away from your bait. So try to fish like this only when there's zero wind. Sorry for english and greetings from Slovenia :)

[@user-nl7vz4wt3t]

Those are some of the nicest carp I've seen!

Hi again dude! Thanks for reccomending this vid. Love carp and im excited to give it a try!

[@fishingtutorials]

You're welcome!! All the best with it :)

[@AndyfromSurrey]

I love free lining with crust. I have my trusty 35+ year old Mitchell reel & Marco 10ft carbon rod with fugi rings (they were a big thing when I was a young teen 😂) setup ready to fish when the carp come to surface. This older rod is quite flexible so is ideally suited to close in fishing like this. I find literally fishing less than 20cm from the bank works a treat, the line isn’t even in the water. Can’t wait for my local lake to reopen on June the 1st.

[@dannyb3005]

You guys inspired me to fish and you help me a lot

[@martinb6751]

Love a bit of surface free lining with bread or mixers, such exciting way to fish. Top vid as always guys, 👍

[@jamesshamley6577]

Awesome video. I like fishing a 4/0 or 5/0 circle with a piece of .55-1mm leader for catfish. Catfish prefer freeline as they are sensitive to resistance from the lead

[@anonymous-fortniteandharry1471]

Hey guys great video i was just wondering where is this lake i love your vids

[@clagfest]

Freelining is the only tactic I use to catch big Carp. Without a doubt the easiest and best method. Sat on the bank, waiting for an alarm to go off is quite frankly, somewhat boring. With freelining you get to see all the action, and feel a part of it. Nothing beats the adrenaline rush of watching some monster weigh up your bait, and decide whether or not to take it 😎

[@bretsubotnik1777]

Always a great video,dont worry too much about the music,in my mind it means people know how good your channel is and trying to take advantage
