- Taking a trip down memory lane, Oz Holness reflects beside the banks of Burghfield, home to what many believe is the best carp to be currently alive in the UK. Oz talks in great detail about his campaign chasing the Burghfield Common, which span over four years and saw him pour his heart and soul into his fishing like he had never done before.

I started watching thinking, "yeah I know this story, but I'll give it 5 minutes..." 1 hour and 11 minutes later!! Beautifully told story.
Many thanks Mattie, glad you enjoyed the film 🤟🏻
Absolutely mega that Oz - really enjoyed every minute of the story. Remember you came on Dinton that year and disappeared for a while, back to Burghfield. Good old days, great memories of the BBQ and you recounting the capture for all the lads. 👍
dont think ill ever get bored of listening to captures of this fish each one uniquely different in its own way but all as equally magical
Glad you enjoyed the tale 🙏🏻
Kind regards
Oz

i’ve watched the capture of the ! common but not from said swim,great story/video congratulations man🎣🙂👍.the stuff of DREAMS
Cerita yang menarik membawaku kesini sobatku,,,
Salam strike dari Indonesia 🇮🇩🇮🇩🇮🇩🙏
Looking forward to watching this
👏👏👏👏👏brilliant piece of story telling oz! I know it was a while ago now but congratulations on your capture and your persistence in your quest. I fished Barnet’s lakes as a kid on a day ticket for the tench and remember old mrs Barnet coming around and collecting the money for the ticket. I also remember having the chance to fish burghfield from the road that took you down to the ski club and John moulds yard was behind me at the time it was being run by the old leisure sports angling club. Little did I know what an iconic piece of water burghfield would become! And I think unfortunately the old barnets lake I used to fish all them years back has now been filled in and is being used as a car park for mouldy’s yard.once again congratulations and I’m looking forward to more stories about your recent captures.
Hey mate, what a great message!! Yes things have changed a lot I imagine but you have relayed great memories there of the old days !! Thanks for taking the time out to watch the film and all the best 🍀🙏🏻

Love ol Oz
Nice, there's a place on Mount KRushmoore for that ;)
when you describe walking with the backpack it sounded like something rolf Harris would do at school time...lol
only joking tho really good video
Absolutely phenomenal Oz, superbly told story, watching and listening to this was as good as reading Jacko's " For the record " book.
Your dedication and mental and physical strength 💪 unreal mate, loved every second of this.
Top man, true gent, and an angler on a level of your own. 👍 🎣 😎
Thanks for the kind words and feedback Mick it’s much appreciated 🙏🏻🍻
Kind regards
Oz
@@ozh3013 . No worries Oz, your vids are a pleasure to watch, and your story telling is top notch too.
Take care fella. 🎣 👍
Truly great oz but we are a small minority group of serious anglers called old skool not afraid to graft.the rest is easy .👌🐳
Good old stew!
✅✅✅🔥🔥🔥🔥
Is the lake this fish dwells in a syndicate lake. ?
It’s Burghfield mate.. it’s not hard to find info on membership etc .. if you try
@@MidlandAngler 🤣
@@MidlandAngler The worst kept secret in carp fishing! lol
@@MidlandAngler oh well funny that one .. smelly
Try fishing a cheshire mere days only 7til7 for a proper common carp. Challenge ha ha
had to skip about 20 minutes as he waffles on quite a bit lol,but a good story
I’d say butthead is better it’s just this fish has more history behind it known to the general fisherman
Just another video about another place where 99.9% of us can never go and fish at any time in our life.
Why’s that then ?
Anyone can fish it mate. Put your name down like everybody else. Do you think every angler that fishes there has some sort of voodoo magic so they can fish there?
@@mattiemclean9882 but realistically he's right,you ain't getting in,you user to be able to fish it but not now
Get your name down, only a 25 year waiting list 🤣🤣
Epic film ❤
