'Proper' Fishing at Carp Arena (Belgium) | Danny Fairbrass

The Gaffer, @tom_stokes_ and friends head over to northern Belgium to experience the fishing on offer at the newly acquired Embryo Europe complex... @carparena !
.
With only an hours travel from Calais needed, the lads waste no time in getting spots found, bait applied and fishing underway across the complex of lakes.
.
In this 'test fishing' trip, DF and Stokesy choose to fish Clover Mere. An ancient pit… that's crystal clear, choked with weed and home to some seriously cool carp to over 60lb’s!
.
Sit back, relax and join the crew for some ‘proper’ European fishing, as they look unlock the complex code, all the while sharing their technical and tactical approaches to the fishing along the way.
.
If you love what you see, and want a chance to fish the complex for yourself. It is open for booking in 2024, so please contact the Carp Arena team on the details below for further information, pricing and availability!

SMOKING IT UP ? 😂😂 must be the new carpy thing to say 😉 , great bit of carp fish capers from Korda DF loving it on the bank as usual row row your boat 🤣🤣 👍

[@DHUNTI15]

OUTSTANDING GUYS GREAT FISHING SHOW YOU PUT TOGETHER👌

[@TheDarkArtofAngling]

The work that Embryo Angling habitats do is amazing, hats off to all concerned

[@superflyjimmysnucka9068]

I think you have to give it to Danny and the Korda team! They put so much back into the carp fishing scene. I've never understood the negative feedback? Keep up the good work 👏

[@PI7ABR3D]

Jealousy and those moaning about videos always selling stuff obviously don't understand a company doing nearly all of it themselves have to plug their products. Be dumb not too. I know some of it seems useless but if there's a market you sell to it.

[@Pauljay65]

Mega watch as usual by korda n the crew nice to see the gaffer doing what he does best korda =🔥🔥

[@andycgsi]

I love a Stokesy video and what an awesome video this is, but the best part for me by far was to see Mr DF looking really good. ❤

[@grahamgfm]

Well done the boss and Korda for giving the young man Stokes a chance on the bigger stage. He deserves it.

[@ragnar_rsa]

Awsome fishing, just ❤ the Korda videos. They are very informative. Keep up the good work chaps

[@aquaticcolledgefishing]

[@ecsko]

Well done Korda, Well done Danny :)

[@ernustusgrobler7532]

Well done mates...! Good session🤠

[@AdamsAnglingTv]

Awsome film korda🎣

[@CarpSocial]

[@trevcornwall8160]

Nice surprise a random Korda video popping up! Looks like a cracking lake! Wild and mysterious! Look forward to the Thinking Tackle episode on there! Good idea taking Carl Smith along with ya! Watched his videos for years now too! Top guy!

[@willburrows8834]

Danny is literally living my childhood dream at this point 😂.

[@Bryanlane1977]

He should be a sailor the amount of time he spends in a boat lol

[@jamesrussel1133]

Yeah becoming aware of your own mortality focuses you on what is important and he has uttered a number of profound things since which still resonate…like no carp angler is really famous, they just like to think they are…true. But also it reminds me too like Jay Leno with all those multi million pounds worth of cars in his collection, what’s the point, you can only drive one car at once. You can only fish one lake at once too. And if your tactics are wrong or the fish aren’t feeding you still won’t catch monsters. Sometimes the “richer” man is the less stressed, the happier guy, who can do what he wants, when he wants without the burden of business pressure and responsibility. Without getting recognised on the bank by people who just have to talk and bug you, so you have to fish exclusive places to avoid all of that unwanted attention. The grass is always greener, except in reality it often isn’t. Your own health is the most important thing of all.

[@robdark7208]

Great video

[@Calmlypanic593]

Amazing

[@leemadden3able]

As much as I really appreciate Danny and all at Korda when are you going to do a video without the use of going out in boats ps met Tom stokes at the Essex carp show brilliant guy and very funny with it well done mr fairbrass for getting such a brilliant brilliant team together can’t fault any of you and to see yourself back on form is fantastic once again Danny well done I look forward to fishing one of your lakes in the future all the best.

[@leecooper1093]

Excellent fellas once again, but why is the Kaizen logo now green on the rods. I was about to buy the Kaizens, but now I'm thinking I'm going to buy a full set up and regret it because there is new ones out 😂😢🤯

[@glentuck7043]

when you coming to do some places in norfolk dan,there are some fisheries here that need some tlc,love norton disney so would love it if we had some fisheries close to hand.

[@daveshaw5293]

Great vid Dan - me and all my mates always fish Belgium lol..

[@LeeSurman-zz5ym]

Allright Dave. Just read your comment about always fishing Belgium. Me and my pal been talking about it for a while as getting sick of the 4+ hours travel into france.

[@jamesrussel1133]

Cracking water that. Tom had too many hook pulls frankly. On such a weedy water I would have fished strong mono. The reason being once a fish is weeded and the line locked, there is no give at all on that short link of braid, making it so much easier for the fish to tear the hook free. On weedy lakes sometimes the fish don’t have the toughest of mouths either. You had boats to go out in to drag them from the weed once you are above them, so it’s just that bit of cushioning and stretch in mono can make all the difference. Yeah I know “ who is this guy saying this” you don’t know me, but I had my own very weedy lake in France for over 12 years so this opinion is backed. by a hell of a lot of practical experience and over 40 years of regularly fishing in Europe. I use braid on the huge etangs fishing mega distances to 400metres plus where you have to. Smaller weedy lakes it’s a minimum of 20lb plus mono for me by preference and a long tough shock leader, but still with some stretch in it to cushion and reduce hook pulls. You will get some, but nowhere near as many when fish get weeded.

[@Fishinglifestyle888]

Awesome watch!! We love to catch carp in Australia,, we have to destroy them once caught.. so the big ones are few. There's a new electronic rod holder perfectly designed for this type of fishing Available in Australia. TrigaPro

[@jaydean2740]

Southern Belgium Danny hahahaha it’s just over the boarder from France ;) clover lake is amazing though fished it a few years back sone real gems in there

[@monkeybrains]

"Wait for it to lock up in the weed then go out and get it." Proper fishing.😂

[@AveragePlayer1_PS5]

Fairbrass the bagging machine

[@davidtinton6215]

Wondering why we were seeing Danny and Tom using the cog lead setup 🤔 surplus of them you need to shift I'm thinking. I've not seen that lead arrangement used by anglers in a very longtime.

[@danilomatanovic2391]

that is a nice camera! With how many FPS was that video filming?

[@dannyhoskins8526]

Given that you guys were fishing a weedy lake and in the past you have mentioned what you do at other venues to remove it are you going to share that info? Our lake was drained earlier in the year and now it is back to level it is carpeted by weed.

[@gbzl3691]

Love this man he as his haters but there just jealous cmon Dan ❤

[@tombervoet4642]

Long shank hooks near obstacles and weed! What where you thinking?

[@BIGGGESTAL]

John Wilson laugh😂

[@onetoners]

New kaizens ayy

[@jackknight511]

7:20 nice from Danny shun 😭😭

[@martinlawrence8427]

Looks like a lovely lake, with a great stock…too easy for you guys!

[@stringsgb8833]

I thought stokes was going in the drink every time he stepped in the boat😂

[@trojanhorse93]

Done well lads update the cog 🙏 🙏 🙏

[@anzezibert8352]

Hi . Is this new Kaizen model rods ?

[@grahamgfm]

Can you please explain how you make the "COG lead" rig a safe non tether rig. Especially when you are using 8oz leads.

[@superflyjimmysnucka9068]

The rig swivel inserts into the top of the COG lead. The lead swivel is on a lead clip. So once the fish picks up the lead and shakes its head, the rig swivel releases. Then if the lead becomes snagged? It works as a normal lead clip system. 👍

[@gazplayz]

Audio was low for second fish but he said "bossshhhh got him" 😉

[@LiberaNosAMalo]

WTF is that lad doing in the background at 17:10??? Reeling rapidly & leaning right into it like he’s boat fishing for a monster! 🤣 Let’s hope that ain’t a carp he’s playing!!! 😳 Man gonna put his back out. lol

[@kevinwinter7050]

By the look of it, pulling in a clump of weed

[@SPS_survivor]

When’s your “Korda fitness” range coming out Danny? Showing off your squats in your “Korda workout gear” 7:20 - you will remain fat if you don’t buy Korda fitness 😂 - just joking - loving the video and am looking for new venues in Europe, as lovely as France is, it’s time to mix it up a bit and Belgium is so close. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated guys and girls. Great video! Thanks 👍🏼🎣

Encore un etang qui va devenir exclusivement réservé aux Anglais... Il a pourtant une histoire incroyable en Belgique 🇧🇪, le lac Decoenninck

[@Kingcarparpeggio]

You’ll be able to put your name on the syndicate list just the same as the English Embryo lakes. What are you moaning about ???? If you live in Belgium it will be a lot easier for you than any English guys that fish it. You want quality carp fishing you’ve got to join the queue mate !!!

[@yvesfournez6751]

​@@Kingcarparpeggiodésolé je ne pêche pas le privé... je paie une carte (assez cher d'ailleurs) pour pecher où je le souhaite dans le public Français.. Je n'ai rien dit de mal, juste mon opinion, c'est un etang historique de Belgique, mais malgré ce que tu vas répondre, comme plein d'eau en France, acheté et géré par des anglais, pour des anglais... Combien de plan d'eau en France, géré par des anglais ne sont plus accessibles aux français? La majorité... Pourquoi ? Ça serait con qu'un pecheur français attrape une carpe qu'il a déjà pris dans le canal ou la rivière juste à côté.. Vous, vous en foutez, vous venez en payant et juste le résultat compte... même si on vous donne les points GPS... mais ça ce n'est plus de la pêche désolé Quel vrai pecheur, passionné, se met sur 1 liste d'attente pour aller pêcher ?! Bonne journée à toi

[@yvesfournez6751]

​@@13tgd😂😂😂 Dany rend la pêche meilleure ?😮😮😮, comment ?! A part monétiser des techniques et tactiques, déjà connues depuis 15 ans, privatiser certaines eaux... Je vois pas l'apport, hormis celui de son compte en banque... On est très loin de la mentalité et de l'esprit : Surtout n'oubliez pas de sentir l'odeur des fleurs sur le chemin... Mais chacun sa pêche et l'idée qu'il s'en fait...

I'm not a fan of dinghy fishing I prefer casting and angling. I appreciate if you are weeded up you may need to get in a boat.

please don't kill the frog

[@Bryanlane1977]

I’ve never seen so much rubbish using the boat every fish can you play them from the bank and before anyone says anything I fish weedy lakes all the time never needed a boat drives me mad the amount they use a boat
