Awesome lads hats off to you all . After a hard weekend working this was the perfect tonic to watch and chill with a beer , thoroughly entertaining and great filming . Am so chuffed you all beat your pbs and did so it so unselfishly, team fresh fishing to take on team Korda next ? 🤣 This is real fishing and real friendships what you boys do is real life and very entertaining. Cannot wait for pt 2

[@FreshFishing]

Yes Richard mate! Love you get it ☺️ it’s about experiencing things together and being selfless! Couldn’t have asked for a better start all 3 of us getting a 30 on our first proper days fishing 😁

[@richardcromack9406]

@@FreshFishing how did you manage to get all of your gear over there ? Did the other lads take it or did you just hire when you was there ?

[@FreshFishing]

Tackle hire mate. We paid 150 each which allowed us to hire rods, pods, nets, slings, scales, bivvy, beds and chairs. We just had to take reels and terminal tackle 🙂

[@bistroteamfishing]

Bravo👍

[@FreshFishing]

Thank you mate

[@tescr500]

Loved the video. Loading your boat, put your rig in first then load your bait on top, otherwise you'll run the risk of your hook pulling through your loose bait, even a loose boilie. Very lightly hook a pva nugget on your hook. I had issues one year with loosing fish using pva nuggets. I watched the water and literally the pva popped up to the surface over half hour later. Don't use them anymore 👍👍👍

[@FreshFishing]

Cheers Wayne. Thanks for the advise 👍

[@FreshFishing]

Cheers mate. Will bear that in mind for future 😊

Hi guys. Watched loads of your vlogs now. I recently fished in France and pardon the pun but wow now I am hooked on French carping. Do you have a direct email for this place? Or do you know if you can hire out any additional accommodation as we are looking to book for around 15 people Look forward to your continued good content guys 🎣. Tight lines and wet nets 💪🏼

We’ve done the rod sharing for a bit now mate, it’s about working as a team. Could you imagine going to France with your best mate and one of you bags up and the other hardly gets anything… sounds pretty shit to us 😁

I think we had a red letter day in all honesty mate. We hit it just off the back of Covid so not many anglers had been. Place is called villereal you can find it on angling lines
