In Pursuit of Canal Carp: Matt and Tank Go Peaky Blinders!

In their latest vlog, Matt and Tank embark on an exciting adventure to the Grand Union Canal, Tring in pursuit of a rare catch - a canal carp, a species they have never caught from a canal before. To add a unique twist to their fishing expedition, the boys decide to dress up as Peaky Blinders characters, hoping that the iconic attire will bring them luck in their quest.
Tune in to witness whether their unconventional approach leads to success or if they'll need more than just stylish attire to hook their elusive target.

That’s one of the best things I’ve seen for ages had me in stitches😂😂 “pass him here see if I can catch a perch with him” brilliant!!

Love the banter guy's, you make fishing less serious and funny. 🤣🤣🤣

Glad you enjoy it!

Absolutely love watching these 2 guys. They crack me up everytime 😂😂😂

Glad you enjoyed the video

I was born in wilstone had my first 20lb over 20yrs ago from wilstone. You'll hear many below saying it was the eastern Europeans taking all the carp but the truth is the weed and algae blooms is what killed most of them off. I have many pictures of multiple groups of double figure dead carp and silver fish during hot summers over the last 10 years. It really was once epic but 5 years ago I walked from marsworth to Aylesbury at night in winter when it was gin clear with a spotlight and saw 5 fish during the while walk, 3 carp of double figures 1 pike and a skimmer. Was devastated.

[@TackleguruTV]

Its a shame thats for sure

[@marcuscommonsangling6707]

This one reminds me of dad when we were practising with farnborough for the 2006 junior national on the Basingstoke canal! We caught roach and skimmers on squat over groundbait, he caught 3 double figure carp on pellet and corn 😂

[@TackleguruTV]

Great memories

I luvz you two! Great media, thanks all.

Absolutely, Better luck next time

[@oldgreg1]

Oh my days! That old tring baliff still out and about slaying the gudgeon!!

Lovely man! Although Im not sure I could fish just for gudgeon

The best carp movie made by two match anglers, so refreshing.

[@TackleguruTV]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@albertthorpe6721]

Absolutely brilliant video Andy ,really enjoyed it and learned loads ,caught my first fish at aston in 1964 2oz roach I'm now 69 still match fish getting hard now especially fishing long but still love it.cheers mate and good luck in all your big matches in the near future.

[@gf845]

I live there and watched the carp decline at a hell of a rate for the last 5 years. Used to feed them floaters out the side hatch everyday. Lucky to see one or two now. Otters are about around there and regularly bang down the side of the boat at around 2am. It’s fucked now.

[@gf845]

Also to add we used to get really pissed off with any televised fishing on this stretch. Our boats are not a feature to fish to and be reminded two of the the three marinas are no fishing zones. I’m pleased this was televised though as it will show people that there really are hardly any carp left so they won’t bother coming here.

[@clivemilner]

Loved the video . Things for all of us, don't, always go to plan.😅

[@Horsepowerimages]

Got to love Matt & Tank

[@TackleguruTV]

appreciate that

[@catalickconverta6823]

Where yous been ive been waiting for another matt an tank video, good to see yous on the canal as well , proper fishing😉

[@TackleguruTV]

We recently did an Ireland Vlog which you can find on the channel! More to come too

[@jayv5256]

Bream machine! Great film, good fun I enjoyed it thank you. Just curious why line info has changed, I'm now 50 and haven't fished for decades (birding took over - binos/scope out the door - simples) what the heck is 0.20 etc I used to fish 4lb mainline to 2lb hook length for example, not into this diameter guff. Also didn't look like you turned up at 4am i.e. carp o'clock. Btw The Gudgeon Specimen Group looks like a prestigious and noble organization, fantastic, keeping angling alive, if I do take up the sport again I will be targeting the magical 2 ouncer.

[@-BOOMA-]

Things change over time ! You don't wanna fish for canal carp with weak line

[@fabiandegussion5134]

Even the best of the best of mere mortals.

[@scottandrewjohnmiddleton8676]

Lads get on the Easington and Wyrley canal at woodlane Pelsall in walsall it's full of good carp there's also loads of bream and tench too loved this video shame you guys didn't find 1

[@TackleguruTV]

Definitely one for the future

[@scottandrewjohnmiddleton8676]

@TackleguruTV trust me it's solid I've fished my local cut since I was 9 I'm 40 this year I've had 1000s of tench and hundreds of carp

[@marciabaldwin2506]

Just found this video and your channel absolutely epic good try guys don't give up on the canal carp, the only one I've hooked had a second burst of energy and snapped my hooklink on the grand union as it was approaching the landing net was gutted same thing on a river yet gravel pits or lakes they always end up in the back of the net❤

[@TackleguruTV]

Thats gutting, we hope you can eventually catch one!

What a film fella. I’d doff my hat to you, but i don’t wear one, 😂😂 A video where you haven’t caught a lot, except a lot of peoples imagination. I was absolutely gutted when Matt lost that last fish, my heart sank. Fantastic you kept the fella in with the Gudgeon society. What a bloke he is. Anyway I don’t have either of you as quitters! When’s part 2 out?

Hi hello can you please tell me what part or the section? Of the grand Canal, where are you Fishing ? As I live in Birmingham thank you 🤩

It’s cooks wharf. I don’t mind telling you as there’s bugger all carp left.

Frustrating for you to lose them fish but way it goes sometimes, if fishing was always easy itd be boring. Sure you boys will smash it next time round.

The one that got away always makes the best stories...right?

Didn’t dean Macey and Adam Rooney fish that stretch for carp?

Yes, many years ago and annoyingly they caught some fish...

The swim Tank was fishing looked so canal carpy. Some zoo creatures around that area for sure. There's always next time

[@wwfcyouth]

used to be stacks and stacks of em at cheds, had 20 plus in a day up there 7/8 years ago, sadly the otters have smashed the granny out of it last 5 years.

[@TackleguruTV]

We were told when fishing that stretch that the carp have been getting caught, about 3 locks up from there

[@wwfcyouth]

@@TackleguruTV still a few there mate, just not in the abundance they once was. 10 years ago you could have 10-15 doubles - mid 20s in a day session just fishing bags up against the barges you were at and the marina to the right on the sneaky😉 try the red lion stretch marsworth just down the road. still plenty in there fellas all the best, still great content and well enjoyed.

[@MikeyMikeCPW]

Avoid factor 50 as it clogs pores and you are prone to burning, stick to factor 30 as its the safer option

[@landbk5015]

Love the video but have to disagree with your comment about being able to fish anytime you like on a canal. You can't! Most stretches of our canals are leased by clubs and fishing is restricted or day tickets have to be bought from shops etc. some distance away when open. Have just subscribed and rang the bell. Barry from Essex.

[@geraldhills41]

Hey Matt , are you related to Craig Cash ?

[@hunngaming8652]

Can someone tell Matt that he needs to land the carp not just get the bite from it 😅

Sorry lads that stretch of canal used to be full of carp 10 years ago but the Eastern Europeans netted it

[@gf845]

It’s because this stretch has a public access car park. They’ve rinsed it dry and the otters had the rest. It’s done now.

Don't salt the steak before you put it in the pan ffs. The salt will draw all the moisture from the middle and it won't cook evenly, best to salt part way through cooking
