Let the bloody thing go

Sink & Draw…. Outstanding…!!!❤

Cracking fish, brilliant fight and well done but never 20lbs in a month of Sundays let alone 24lbs. A cracking good 12-14lb fish which under the current reduced runs is a good achievement so well done! Just don't sell yourself short by over estimating it's weight

Stunning fish and great video keep them coming🐟🐟🎣🎣

Well done mate some great action there great video 🐟🐟🐠🐠

That’s a hawk

Excellent and congratulation, a beautiful fish indeed!!

how you can estimate that fish was 40 plus lbs is bonkers , your living in cloud cuckoo land

Hi Paul, could you tell me what’s that new whisker like for spinning? I’ve had a few of the older ones, is it a bit heavy for spinning or ok? Thanks

Saw a White Hart Stag in Godshill 2 days ago. Got some very grainy video, not really worthy of posting although happy to share if interested.

I think the fish was nearer 22lb than 18lb. At that size the wright of a fish can be very deceptive.

Well done on looking to let the fish recover before the photo ( even if it was at the expense of getting the trophy snap) ! Beautiful fish and gorgeous surroundings. Im planning a trip myself soon. Tight Lines.

My favourite spinner for salmon, lost count how many l have taken on the black and silver. Early season l fish the black and gold. Throw it across and slightly up stream and reel it in.. deadly. Fish the yellow and silver in coloured water after heavy rain, cast upstream hard into the bank and hit the seatrout.

beautiful little bird.

Absolutely wonderful fish, well caught but unfortunately held in a net for a disgracefully amount of time. Fresh fish are delicate and susceptible to stress so as soon as they are ready to go they should be released. Iv seen captures like that held for photos and egos swim away fine but found dead a day later. We don't need to feed the antis. Having said that iam a passionate Salmon angler and understand the adrenaline and living the moment so well done.

Great if you've got the money....

What a catch!

Beautiful salmon

Congratulations Paul. Great footage of that silver bar against the moody grey sky! Best wishes for2024.

Well done paul. Glad to see your videos back!! Heres to 2024 🥃

I hated it when the trebles got tangled in the net while the fish was still hooked, nearly gave up as well.

This is a farmed escapee salmon , the tail is square from rubbing on cage and they have more spots like seatrout

If I was using a size 5 mepps with the hair dressed hook, would that catch big and tiny pike alike? I want to catch quality, big fish, but I also want the action from little fish

Video really be 10 years old

Does the minnow tangle above the weight when casting

Im only 28 but i fish an old school setup some ppl would laugh at me an old shakespeare ugly stick rod from the 80s or an old abu garcia rod an an old michell 300 if you know you know ..

Super fish

can't h ear a word even on top volume?

Another great vid Paul - being in Cirencester, I'm always looking for relatovely close fishing spots. Could you advise whether day tickets are available on the stretches you show? Here, Ibsey Bridge, etc? Thanks.

Great vid, thanks for sharing.

The Diawa Whisker is a brilliant rod, the best spinning rod i’ve used no doubts about it

Man, Found this by accident 10years to the day! Making my own video currently here.

You could catch me with a prawn, easily!

thanks enjoyed the video caught a lot of pike myself on the mepps4 as a lad brilliant thanks

Love your videos mate im a specimen lure angler for perch! Just started targeting salmon on the flying c My river isnt massive can you recommend and decent rod and reel for the flying c

What’s your favourite salmon spinner mate

harrys 1st day?

Massive fish!

Fantastic fishing Paul and what a method , can I ask , do you offer a guide service down there fella 👍

Beautiful fish and interesting way to fish the Devon.They were a great bait for spring salmon here on the river Moy in the rep of Ireland but nobody fishes them anymore its all Flying C now which work well but i hate fishing them as they pull your back out..

Lovely to see, great pictures!

Yellow Belly Devons are my farourite and i use them on the Spey on the beats that allow spinning .

How do you attach the flying c to the mainline? Do you tie the mainline directly to the the lure or do you use a snap swivel? Also do you a hooklink/leader?

Oh ffs it's your kid!?!? Wtf

Ooo that's a lovely fish Jarred, ooo nice fish, oooo that's a beautiful fish Jarred, beautiful fish Jarred. You two fishing together or you trying to fuck him? Beautiful fish... lovely fish Jarred, nice fish ooo lovely fish Jarred 🤣🤣. You even put the camera down at the end and all you can hear in the background is... 'Oooohh, it's a beautiful fish Jarred.' Seriously guy, I think you and Jarred need to have a chat because there's definitely some stuff you guys need to get out in the open. Ooooo lovely fish Jarred... yes Jarred, oooohh beautiful Jarred 😂😂.

Great fish no what I mean arry, lol. What a beast.

Never seen a NO 5! I usually use 1s or 2s.

I like to get Mepps very dirty, rub with sand, take the gloss off and a bit more..
