Alan is back and hungry for a new mission! He travels to Bristol to fish alongside his good friend Jordan Dicks as they tackle the urban jungle, meet the good people of Bristol and show that carp can be caught from the most unlikely of locations. CARP....LOADS OF CARP!

[@rcfrenzy]

Props to Alan for handling the angry woman with professionalism. He definitely won the verbal battle lol

[@beckflo]

Alan very well i think at this Situation i will kick the old woman to her wildlife iland... holy fck

[@KeefsCattys]

Alan. If ever there was a polite, educated man to represent our sport to the public it is you. Well done on a great representation of our sport and well handled ! cheers keith

[@gavt1198]

here here!

[@vincentmaree9782]

It's why we spend more on carp care than our actual kit. So we can get them back in prestine condition so we can catch them when they bigger. Children should fish rather than spending money on games. Beside if you buy fishing gear you will never have cash for drugs. Well said 👍 Alen

[@benlevingstone1485]

Probably wouldve put her in the lake 😂🤷🏼‍♂️

[@itsmoyzehh3873]

Never seen such a busy body no good bag of hot air

[@fishwithcarl]

Well done NashTV, done it again! The lady was so funny, and the film told a really nice story :) Alex

[@Centralminimize]

nice to see you filming for nash Carl, i was wondering if you also do the editing or just the filming? as the editing was brilliant and suites the urban feel :)

[@fishwithcarl]

Thanks Jason, all the editing was done by Winston. Although I did help drag some clips into the timeline for the intro sequence. Lol :)

[@derekbradley-balmer3056]

Yeah well she got her way - the Council plan was to poison all the fish. (unless they passed EA health checks and could be moved). I don't know how many actually got moved.

[@tomayres534]

Derek Bradley-Balmer yeah she did get her way because she didn’t know what she was going on about and she started saying about looking at things as a whole yet she was pigeon holding and stereotyping the angling community

[@tomayres534]

She also didn’t have many decent arguments for her point

[@jackoff3928]

16:33 that old man "do you want a joint before you go?" This had me creasing up lol.

[@TheDJKareem]

The juxtaposition of the older lady & her 'killing wildlife' (21:24) mind set & the little kid & his grandparents (25:40) was fantastic - bravo Urban Banx 10/10. "You want a joint before you go?" (16:33) - I nearly spat my Stella out !! LOL

[@nuffinbutfishing]

Another great Urban Banx. Well done to Alan for keeping his cool with the whiney old bag. "Put that fish back behind the line" I cracked up with that bit. quality fish. All in my local city too. Will definitely be looking into doing some more urban fishing.

[@RickMunday]

Well maintained with that woman. Most anglers I know are bigger conservationists that the so called "community conservation" teams. Sure, they may clean the rivers, but here at least they trod on beds (reds) like a bunch of idiots. And then they have the gall to yell at anglers. Great job Alan.

[@bonesyp5521]

The smile on the little boys face totally blew the woman's ideas out the water,Alan handled that situation well.top man.look forward to more urban banx from nash.

[@factsnothingbut.thefacts7700]

Peeeek al an be honest did old woman Carrie reak of piss? u stood firm. Poilete but fair ,any way nice to see u and or mate put them on the bank can you help I live in Luton Bedfordshire I fish river Lea for carp i getting Rudd hell I tryed harder boiilles they like bloody Paraná bait gone in 10mins would single zigs be any good?

[@jonathonroberts4929]

*****' perfect timing ' indeed.........

[@kennyscouse3388]

100% respect for not only showing the lady who was against angling (you could have quite easily just edited all that out of the video!) - But, also respect for the sensible way you handled the situation. It would have been very tempting to resort to the type of sarcastic comments she was making, but instead, you conducted yourself very well & on behalf of the other 4+million anglers! You did yourself & the sport no harm whatsoever. I have a lot of time for both you, and your excellent attitude. Thanks from an angler of over 55years.

[@pouladia]

Nicely done Alan, a true ambassador to carp fishing. Keeping calm and trying to explain to the lady what carp angling is all about! Cheers m8!

[@dodjo]

Great video. Superb handling of the old lady, then the kid came along and was fascinated by the carp minutes later...great timing!

[@johnh5660]

I know I'm very late with this(years late ) but this video is amazing . I've been a angler since a child and this is why I wouldn't ever fish these type of places . I understand her point of view but don't agree with it and I've always fished with a touch of guilt or acceptance that it's not the most helpful thing in the world to nature (let's just be honest ). It's a bit of a battle I have with myself . But certainly loads of kids love seeing anglers and it's a case of understanding all the points of view and not attacking either perspective . Seeing the child at the end with his grandparents made me so happy. You guys dealt with this whole situation amazingly in my opinion . Great video .

[@Meako80]

I had to hit the Like button for this one! Excellent video- great fishing and the way you handled the ranting woman in the park was brilliant. Thank you for the way you represented anglers- great job!

[@lewismatthews2813]

good to see that some fishermen are respectful of over people views and good to see the younger generation love fishing

[@scraske2002]

Alan your a hero mate, Delt with that lady like an absolute pro. You have finally became my favourite Fisherman and your love and passion for the sport is great. Keep up the good work mate. X

[@londoncityangler4200]

Respect to the urban banx team for putting that clip in!! It was a brave decision !! Stepping the game up again with better locations, shots & editing. Keep em coming your an insperation!!

[@sheppeyfishtales]

Well handled. A great ambassador and great video. I admire your positivity towards her despite the unprovoked attack!

[@ANGLERSMAILTV]

A big thumbs up from all the lads at AM HQ who have thoroughly enjoyed this one. Top work all-round again. Respect to all the Urban Banx crew!

[@allardbiggenvanger3480]

i was hooked up in an urban enviroment between 2 office buildings in amsterdam, when suddenly the receptionist came to me with all the same crap Alan got thrown to him... when i finally netted the beast the workers in the other office building took notice and all came out the window cheering ..very funny situation...love your vids Alan great quality

[@DickOswald]

Alan is a boss a true nature lover! He keeps calm and positive thats the way to go!

[@emilkayeroed6901]

I am a 13 gear old angler and I have been fishing for a couple of years and I am strict only Catch and release I fish as much as I can and I could not help noticing the lady saying fishing was a bad thin. But thanks to fishing I am not sitting inside all day at a computer but outside a couple hours a day and enjoying the weather. Thanks to Nash and all your incredible videos it was you that helped me with learning tactics and methods to the fishing. Thighs lines and whet nets :)

[@peckster16]

Totally agree with you I'm 14 been fishing since I was 10 and absolutely love it

[@PanzerAttack72]

Another fantastic episode of Urban Banx guys. Fair play to Alan for not losing his rag with the miserable moaning woman. I thought he conducted himself very well and was a great advocate for angling as a whole. My only criticisms about urban banx would be that it's over too quickly and we have to wait for too long for the next adventure....LoL Great work guys, keep it up

[@carpcruzin1970]

Your a true ambassador for our sport Alan, respectfull and inteligent. Well done pal.

[@tomcoppola6672]

Mate your amazing ... The way you treated the little children is great

[@OllieR1des125]

I agree with Alan as I grew up with fishing and it taught me alot and kept me out of trouble

[@cyrilbourreau1467]

j'adore les Urban Banx c'est vraiment un super partage de notre passion avec Alan Blair qui nous montre de son point de vue, sa façon de voir les chose avec toujours le sourire et la bonne humeur :)

[@CarpioTheOnlyOne]

As expected. Fantastic viewing. Stop the day job Alan and just make these!!!!

[@carphere809]

I'm 15 and have been fishing since I can remember, I live the sport and wouldn't stop doing what I love the most. That women had no clue what she was talking about, if only she knew how good of an angler you were and how you treat the fish. It's a shame that some people can ruin what we love best though; people leaving litter etc. They give anglers a bad name and then we get judged as one and that we're all the same "nature killers". Anyway well done Alan and Jordan! Can't wait for next one ;)

[@tomayres534]

Carp Here I agree

[@garethtoye679]

Great work for being so patient with that lady at the park - a great ambassador for fishing!

[@MidKentCarp]

You handled the lady well Alan, and good to see Carl behind the camera. Top video again mate

[@SMHOZZ83]

Awesome video!!!! And Alans words after the woman gave him an ear bashing where spot on!!!! :) Fishing from a young age is an amazing thing and I feel people like that woman are missing out on a pukka way to spend your youth with your mates growing up instead of doing all the things some kids now days like to get up to. Well done Alan your a star mate!!!! :D

[@nayzeplayz]

SMHOZZ83 Alan did great

[@waynemasterman2474]

Well done to the nash team for this vid 99.9% of people would have cut the old dear kicking off with alan great stuff looking forward to the next instalment

[@El-Tel63-Terry.]

Top drawer Alan, urban banx is different from all other carp videos....and once again its Mr Blair's enthusiasm that drives this video, quality from Nash TV.

[@hazzasimsers123]

I fish park lakes and know what it's like to encounter these sort of people. Top marks for being polite, respectful and level headed towards her. It's no good being violent and aggressive. You're a superb ambassador for this sport.

[@TotalCarping]

This is absolutely brilliant lads, top marks have to go to Alan as he handled the situation absolutely superbly, then the footage that follows on is testament to what Alan explains in the video, appreciation of wildlife through angling. Please pass this on to Al if you read this Nash.

[@jackm942]

Whoever edits these videos is a bloody genius. Superb addition to the urban banx series. Very entertaining!

[@jonathonroberts4929]

Trout Fishing Wales.........why say this? You a heratic?! You should know fly fishing is the ONLY way!!!

[@jackm942]

Jonathon Roberts I enjoy all forms of fishing... fly fishing being my most preferred style!

[@jonathonroberts4929]

Fly fishing takes people to a higher place unlike lowly bait fishing.......................clearly you are not a real flyfisherman.

[@nickmaddix8100]

13.40 - I've wheeled this bit up so many times to hear that tune!!

[@charlienicholson342]

I love how that woman said about young kids not fishing but then that little lad was so amazed by seeing a carp

[@benjaminford139]

There are worse things people could be doing in a park than fishing, that woman doesnt know what she is on about. Well done Nash for defending our sport that weall take pride in and enjoy. Well done lads

[@tonydavies32]

Respect! Some would have handled that situation a lot worse and given Anglers a bad rep. She was not open for debate, single minded with too much time on her hands.. Amazing videos my kids (5&8) love fishing, they cannot get enough of it.

[@domgarnettfishing]

How perfect that moments after the irate old ratbag came along, you got to show the joy of angling to a local kid!

[@antrog1895]

'How do we get on that boat!?' True fishermen!! Great vid lads.

[@Keith187066]

Alan, you are a credit to the whole angling community. You showed great reserve and patience there, and gave her a very considerate and reasoned response. The fact she wouldn't shake your hand shows just how up herself she really is. Crazy cow.

[@petersharp90]

Great video. I lived in Bristol for 10 years ago and never would have guessed there were fish that size in the docks.

[@Reelfishinguk]

Epic as always guys and well done Alan on the way in which you handled the woman on the park lake. Good to see the new team member at work too Carl

[@Box550]

Well done to Alan and the gang. Fantastic edition to Urban Banx....who knows what the docks hold..maybe a monster. Cheers guys, can't wait for the next one.

[@lloydrobson]

Brilliant Brilliant film, great entertainment, love Bristol. Pity about Mary Whitehouse in the park

[@sylviewheeler6237]

You get maxi maxi points for the way you give such a great representation of our sport !! Fantastic !!!!!! You handled the situation perfectly !!!!! You could not have done it better ! AND all the video is so motivating !!!! Great job !!!!!!!!!

[@ashleybennett9322]

Wow Alan great video so inspirational to anyone looking to do the same, and we must say you dealt with that busy body in the park, better than most, hats off!

[@samhickson7062]

Well done lads great watch that woman was a little bit off a pain but you handle her stupid remarks very well and also nice to see Carl enjoying his new job.

[@jamesbewtube]

I've lived in Bristol on and off for a tally of nearly 35 years, and the docks have played a large role as it is soo central to life in Bristol. I'm also personally close to the docks having lived in a narrow boat briefly and now regularly sailing there, but this video has surprised and delighted me seeing a completely different perspective on the city. Really enoyed seeing Bristol through your eyes and the passion for your sport. With regard to Eastville park, it's purpose has always been for leisure and the stock is there to fish. Bristol welcomes you. Thouroughly enjoed seeing this, keep it up.

[@nathanandvickysanders5581]

Another must see video. Highly original viewing! ☺

[@louisradley7570]

im 14, been fishing since 2 years old so 12 odd years never killed or hurt a fish... my 'classmates' all drink, smoke, cause havoc on the streets while im fishing its something to get into to stop drugs and other stuff... anyway lads amazing video whens the next? (im re watching them all)

[@jack14kd]

Louis Radley all his urban banx / euro banx are worth watchin more than once

[@explorerrocker09]

madness when ya that age and all your mates are smoking, drinking and doing drugs.. all those things even better when out fishing !

[@byrnesy194]

Great video! Alan your passion for the sport is admirable, that's why we fish! And how you dealt with that lady so calmly and professionally I don't know because she was really winding me up! Respect guys!

[@TSCHERRYO]

this keran's everytime...big up's alan

[@davidbarker9068]

Great video guys, the old lady was hilarious

[@WodnikSzuwarekHD]

Great movie! I'm your fan Alan.

[@jamesernest7224]

Well done once again, you dealt with the "friend the park" brilliantly.

[@northbaseuk882]

I've fished all my life, and I have often at times struggled with the idea that I am perhaps causing distress to animals. But also, I really, really don't believe humans are supposed to live the way we do. Something has to give. For me angling allows me to escape back to a happier time - when I was a carefree boy. It connects me to my ancestors, it reminds me that I am also an animal struggling to survive in this mad mad world. It's the duality of human nature and I believe those who accept that are ultimately happiest.

[@boboneleg]

Hi, I haven't fished for over 35 years but thoroughly enjoyed your great video made in my home town. Good on you mate :)

[@simonchasescarp724]

Gotta love an angry old woman they make me chuckle! Hurting wildlife? Carp fishing has created more lakes and that created more pristine habitat for wildlife

[@jmbla5070]

Carl nearly lost it with laughter when the lady came over haha

[@jmbla5070]

+NASH TV Carp Fishing Haha great vid guys!!!

[@jimoflh5773]

if her grandkids came over I'm sure they would love to see the carp

[@MrInconspicuous]

Want a joint before you go 🤣🤣 brilliant & top man for staying polite during your confrontation 👍 legend

[@SnaggedOnFish]

The shot at 4:09 was incredible, the depth of field was :o

[@olidavies2496]

Bokehlicious lens that one ;)

[@fishwithcarl]

Oli Davies Haha Bokehliscious. I like that word. :D

[@SnaggedOnFish]

£££

[@El-Tel63-Terry.]

Oli Davies You watch DigitalRev then Olie ;-)

[@Concrete_carper]

That lady gave me rage well done for keeping your cool mate. That was another cracking video really enjoyed watching cheers guys👍

[@msduncansteele]

think alans passion for fishing is so good, love how your input for the younger generation to get involved. I wouldnt be suprisedif you were heavyily invovled with alex and carls vidoes, there such good lads, well done mate

[@bobpeasley3843]

Well done Alan, that was brilliantly handled! Another superb film, Urban Banx is head and shoulders better than anything else on the net. I smashed my PB a couple of years ago on a canal in deepest darkest Tipton in the west mid's. I was on receiving end of some of the same rubbish as well. Unfortunately, that fish along with 3 other big fish I had have all now vanished. May be if there had been a few more anglers on there this wouldn't have happened. I tried to explain this to the ignorant anti after they went but they still wouldn't have it. Well done Nash, keep up the good work!

[@simonhuss9619]

Cracking video as always, agree with you totally,and the little lad with his grandparents coming over straight after the jobsworth lady just before put into perspective your argument lol, I'm always amazed at people's reactions when they see you with your catch, 9 times outta 10 it's the same as the the reaction from the boy and family the old lady is the 1 in 10, set in their ways not prepared to see the joy it brings to people

[@kylemurphy9405]

I'm 14 and love fishing and treat the fish with care that lady should want young people getting into fishing it teaches you abou wildlife and keep your mind occupied and helps young people stay out of trouble .i spend any money I earn on carp fishing tackle such a great sport and past time.

[@matthewallen1597]

I'm not a fisherman but my mate who is directed me here - it was an interesting video and Alan articulated his points well.

[@bladeboy2041]

Really great video, hip and cool. Great for the sport.

[@sammarris5090]

These urban banx videos are very inspiring and have got me tackling my own urban banx in Hull. Oli's filming is top noch and alan is a credit not only to fishing but to us people who get labeled as no good chavs because of what we wear (true gent). Alan handled the situation with the old lady spot on and even made her smile :) keep it up everyone at nash and maybe see you in urban Hull one day. Thanks lads

[@mellievr7318]

Awesome movie guys.Was a joy to watch :)

[@MrMichael1041]

Alan you handled the parks "Police" very well I must say i wouldn't of been able to keep my calm as well as you did. also a great video.

[@hamaadrana8948]

My guy asked Alan if he wanted to bun a zoot😂😂 I'm dead

[@dj858]

been following you and olly for a while now and one thing I can honestly say is I have never seen a fish being harmed or mistreated and any way shape or form by either of you, well handled with the old lady chap, I'm from south bristol myself and one thing I can honestly say is if that park was in my neck of the woods you would have had a much warmer reception and understanding of what and why you were there, highly enjoyed the video mucker nice to see someone from further a field come and give our docks a bash, and I now have a better ideal on what time roughly to fish for carp in the docks thanks again

[@stuieallan]

You crossed the line!

[@cypry0]

Another great video, it brought back memories. I used to take my boys surface fishing there when they were little. Like you say they are pretty clued up, as they have seen it all before! Now as young men they still have a passion for the sport.

[@nathanielbest6610]

the quality of your video production is amazing

[@TheWelshCarping]

Love the urban Banx

[@samo4256]

Being a lure angler I must say I fully enjoyed this vid. Great work lads. And as for that rude woman I duno how Alan dent tell her to do one. He was being respectful n she was just being a idiot to be fair. It's great for young kids to get in to fishing. There's a lot worse things they could be doing. Angling does make a difference to people's lifes. Loved it lads !!

[@gregsy1234]

Just cam across this and well done for keeping your cool with that lady. I've fished that place for over 30 years amd I can remeber when there was no line against fishing. And she obviously can't remeber that it was anglers money that cleaned that lake and kept the fish in good condition

[@sharky87ac]

Wicked video lads, you would never think you could catch such nice carp out of waters like that, great angling guys

[@bing0001]

You are a gentleman fisherman.

[@richardfisher8828]

once again brilliant urban vid. alan and jordan your smiles say it all. keep it up :)

[@lukefudge1483]

Caught the last fish five years ago weighing 21.3lb happy to see its still in there gonna have to try get him again and good vid nash as always fair play

[@johnnyjakobsen2637]

Awesome guys!

[@_kierkier37]

Love this in my home town respect man

[@PearD411]

Quality. My kind of fishing. The docs look awsome

[@mikem8]

amazing video, amazing soundtrack and amazing editing as standard from nash! and Alan Blair is the man! will have to give St. Georges park a go after work one evening! 'You want a joint before you go?' gotta love bristol

[@Crommy1968]

Patience Mr Blair you handled her very well, bless the old lady's cotton sock's , what else is she going to do in her retirement, lots of time on her hands to start a hate campaign against us southwest anglers, great vid lads

[@olliewinspear3686]

Amazing episode, like other people have said in the comments you handled the women brilliantly and as an angler (aged 18)myself I have very similar views as Alan. Quality tunes once again

[@GaryNorthants]

Good news. The Angling Trust has stepped in and all healthy fish will be safely relocated.

[@Mike-jc9xd]

Great video and you guys are a tribute to anglers and people like that woman clearly don't know the difference between real anglers and noddys and to say children shouldn't do the sport is absolutely silly as my best memories fishing as a youngster with my uncle and friends and as ya say keeps ya from getting in trouble which is to easy for kids now days. Big up Alan for keeping his cool

[@essex9]

Great little video. nice one !!

[@sheldybabes1]

These two guys are a credit to the sport of angling. Alans way of dealing with that woman was admirable (she would of been swimming if it was me) please pass on to the guys that they are both stars and congrats on the well deserved fish.

[@stevo118]

Quality job fellas!

[@toddmiller1933]

Every time I watch you vids I have a huge smile lol Mustard bro

[@CarpOrama]

As always! WOW.. Great video guys! Love everything about it!

[@jameslangner8929]

very well played with handling that woman. Another great video :)
