- Angling means different things to different people, some love the solitude of a large windswept pit, others prefer the company of friends on smaller, more intimate venues. It is the latter that we focus on in this stunning piece, as we follow Martin Bowler along with his friend, and carp angling legend, Chris Yates.
Martin and Chris have a long-standing relationship, and even though they are very different people, they get on so very well. Although they don’t fish together often; each trip is special and this one was no different.
The intrepid piscators target a secret estate lake surrounded by dense woodland, populated by some magnificent and rather old carp. Porcupine quill floats, split cane rods and centerpins; Chris’ gear hasn’t changed. Simply, sit back, and enjoy this wonderful story unfold….

Chris isn't just a fisherman he is a bright soul who knows exactly how to enjoy the present moment. An eternal legend for sure :)
Superb video , carp fishing before it was hijacked by the money men .
Great remark
You can still do it the right way if you look around.
It was hijacked by the money men here! That lake costs a fortune to fish.
Fishing hasn’t been hijacked. You choose to fish the way you want to fish. This is readily available if you want it to be.
@@jeffdavids9314 not rlly, what about all them mugs launching out all that bait in stupid rockets. Fishing a lake the old skool way is gonna take a lot for the float to go
Not a film about baits, or tackle, or rigs or techniques but a film about fishing and better still, friends fishing and the magic that brings them together. And what made it extra special was the fact that it made me feel like i was a third friend there with them, holding the camera perhaps. Simply magical.
Trev Reeson very nicely said Trev
Trev Reeson well said.
Ye quite magical
Simply true
well said Trev, couldn't of said it better myself
this film actually made me have a quiet tear as chris is getting on and hes the reason i got into fishing like many of us. great film sticky baits
@Tommy Zyvis bellend.
@Tommy Zyvis says you trolling comments on CZcams definition of stupidity.

He's 71

Well said my fishing hero growing up great to see Chris again
A crap days fishing beats a good day at work every time
Actually there's no such thing as " a crap days fishing ", even if you don't catch anything, you're out in the open air enjoying the wildlife and scenery.
And there's always next time...
Superb. Fishing as it should be.
Chris Yates is a true angling legend.
@Tommy Zyvis mate😂😂you're such a prick!!
in reflection you parted me with an hour of my life, transported to the world of chris and martin, a world of frisby, tea, carp and of course cake, am i complaining about the loss of that hour? not for one second thank you for a fantastic adventure into angling.
The epitome of carpiness: “Dick Walker would be really happy that his old rod is still working well, still bending nicely, and Leney would be delighted too that his reel is still in action”
My ears pricked up at that quote....It's 70 odd years of fishing history in one beautiful Carp...
No other person I’ve not met has had such a profound influence on my life. Chris Yates, legend in his own lifetime.
I feel exactly the same way. A great man.
that was amazing, takes me back to the old passion for angling films that first got me into fishing
Rob O’Brien same 🎣🎣
Absolutely!! Spot on.
Rob O’Brien well said takes you back when we were kids the excitement of not knowing what's gonna pull yr line.Bloody brilliant .
Possibly the best angling film for 30 years, this is one I'll come back to again and again. Thank you
Its quite amazing, I get so emotional watching Chris catch on his vintage tackle. The man is a legend in his own lifetime and its a great pleasure to watch him fish. Makes me remember my youth
How pretty is that! Not carping, not fishing, just life Jim - but not as we know it! Outdoors, watching the stars come out, bit of rain, and that old battered tilley kettle with half a cake! Lovely, just lovely, thank you so much fellas!
sitting here in tears ... this resembles all of my childhood, and many happy memories of my father rip dad. Sticky baits thank you for such a beautiful , epic journey .
you know my friend we anglers are lucky because the boy inside all of us,, is waiting by the water to relive old times again,,tight lines,
A pleasure to see Chris Yates Back in Action. One of the best carp videos I've watched in a long time.
This is what life is all about, the peace, the quiet and good company - lovely.
I always enjoy watching these Chris Yates videos. He sums up for me what fishing is really all about. It's so much more than just clocking up monster fish. It's the connection with nature and being truly present in a beautiful location and all the relaxation and inner peace that brings. I started fishing when I was a teen to escape a shit childhood and it worked a treat !
“It’s only through the losses we can truly appreciate the special catches” a metaphor for life and the sole reason we keep going back to the bank year after year. Amazing film making, beautiful, funny and endearing well done to all involved and thank you for sharing.
Aaron Davies spot on mate 👍🏻
Sunday evenings as a twelve year old watching Bob and Chris with bernard's narration . A time lapse a reminder our time in this world is limited and that were getting further away from where we came from.
thank you.
@Tommy Zyvis please tell me you haven't been allowed to breed We don't need any more of you.
Passion for angling is just as brilliant today as it was when I was a kid watching it.
I watched redmire legends tonight and then found these with Martin, i went back in time watching and it was a nice escape from 2021 and what a horrible and greedy world we live in
Now that is how to make a fishing film. Thank you for sharing it.
Best film I’ve ever watched. Chris Yates what a legend!
Words can't describe how happy I am to see Chris on the bank again, he is the reason I started carp fishing watching Passion for angling, reading his books and having the pleasure of meeting and taking to him at one of his book signings. Thanks for posting this vid it has made my day, week, month and shows what fishing is all about. Great pairing Martin and Chris wish you could do more
As he wrote in my book, "Gareth - cast for the dream" 🙂👍
One of the best films I’ve seen for a long while , the essence of why we go fishing , beats a how to video any day.. Two anglers I could watch all day long. Can’t wait for the next one ! Cheers Guys.
Doesn’t get much better than this, the essence of angling 👌🏻
Sat behind my freespirit rods & delkim alarms I realised I wasn’t having fun anymore. That was four years ago. But this has stirred something inside of me! When you have caught countless 30lb plus carp you realise it’s not what you catch but how you catch them that really counts!
This film is beautiful in every way I have watched it so many times and I never get bored off it true carp fishing before it all become bout money takes me back to the days as a kid wear I used to learn from the old boys round the lake care free just the lake rod and you and tea of course. that magical connection with just you and the fishing I think this is something we all need to pass on and stop forgetting we’re we come from life is short and children are the next generation of anglers wouldnt it be magical if thay were like Martian and Chris. Off for tea and cake and spot of fishing:)
This is one of the most moving fishing films I have seen in a long time. To see the joy it still gives Yates is amazing. Reminds me of the type of filming that made me get into Angling in the first place. Passion for Angling, catching the impossible. Amazing. Well done sticky for making this happen.
Bowler, the essence of the modern, thinking angler.... Yates the essence of the more whimsical, esoteric countryman harkening back to a bygone England.... beautifully emotive
Great film no drum n bass and no loud obnoxious shouting
I think it would have been better if ol' Yates shouted "GET IN THAT FACKING NET! YES! BOSH! WICKED MAAAAN!!!" That would have been much more like the modern way
gwl78 well said.
@@CB-xr1eg Mattie McLean is everything wrong with carp fish but its an open spot that letts all sort of idiots have go 🤔
@@CB-xr1eg It was a joke about Danny Fairbrass and his "catchphrase" while landing a fish. I forgot 90% of CZcams watchers don't have a sense of humour
Yep.. No "big ups bro" from nash. No "pukka, bosh, wicked" shouted at 10,000 decibels from Korda.
That is the essence of true angling , watching that float twitch and then sail away beats a bite alarm going off any day . Truly majestic .
Great film once again and yet it seems funny how many of the companies responsible for the commercialisation of carp angling are presenting a lost and romantic vision of what we had before it was all about the money.
This is like a breath of fresh air in the world of carp fishing videos, Mr Yates, what a legend 👍🏻
You can see so much of John in Martin, great film makes me realise why I started fishing 35+ years ago
@Tommy Zyvis prick
Looks loads like Wilson don't he
I walked around this very lake last weekend and it is as beautiful as it is shown by StickyBaits. One of my fav videos, and Chris is an absolute guru in this one.
This has to be the best fishing flick I have ever seen. Just magic.
Please more of this, truely one of the best video's in a long long time.
That's the real part of fishing, you come nearlest to the nature. For me the best art of catch carp. Iam German fisher, but I love the english mentality of fishing. Thanks 😉👍
Could watch n listen to Chris all day. 👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽
Friends enjoying a day fishing 🎣 that’s what it’s all about! Sharing fantastic times ? Magic moments 😉Wonderful stuff!
I have had the pleasure of reading Chris Yate's books, this is the first film I have watched.
His demeanour, his angling philosophy is a joy to behold in a world that got itself into one bug rush.
Phenomenal 🎣🙏
Chris is a purist in every way and epitomises the real art of angling, making it almost like a spiritual experience. A thing of rare beauty. we all owe Chris for bringing carp fishing into the concience of anglers back in the day.
All you other company;s ,That make Videos, please please please watch this.This is the very reason we all love this sport.Tranquil relaxing and Joyfull to behold.No urban beat music as you try to sell us the next wonder product.just pure and utter fishing at its very best.No monsters No all singing all dancing wonder rig.I lost myself for an hour with this video.A throwback to a passion for angling kinda way.To all involved this has to be the best video i have watched on You-tube for a long long Time.Thank-you regards Mikey.
Wonderful. Made my day and set me up nicely for the rest of the season... Beautiful photography. Well done.
The best carp video made for many years as someone said previously this takes me back to the passion for angling series, the main reason I started carp fishing; Chris Yates is a legend! Everyone who likes carp fishing should read ‘casting at the sun”.
Stunning, truely stunning. 10/10 Sticky baits. Made in the style of A Passion for Angling this is a glorious return to carp fishing videos of old and a refreshing change to modern style of videos.
Whoever made this deserves an Oscar.
Carp record holder 51lb 8oz in 1980 Chris Yates Redmire. What a character!
What a wonderful film, thank you.
Chris is such a legend. Met him over 15yrs ago, such a gentleman and an inspiration. His books are legendary and so is the way he fishes. Proper angling.
BIG UPS to the videographers on these pieces man, proper visual novels these!
Chris is such an amazing man a true angler, today's soulless carp anglers could do with taking some notes.
Well done! Beautifully filmed and captured chris how we all remember him from the past and want to see him in the future
Nature, the characters, the {lost} fish, Perfect in every way.Thank you for sharing.
Many years ago when I first began carp fishing I sat under in a swim under an oak tree little realising I was in the swim that Chris Yates caught his very first twenty from.
Ten years later I was fortunate to fish Redmire Pool and sat in the very swim Dick Walker captured Clarissa, and I managed in under five minutes to catch a twenty two pound linear mirror. Upon returning home I discovered it was a fish captured by Jack Hilton some twenty years previously. I feel very privileged to have trod in the footsteps of such iconic anglers. Brilliant video that takes me back.
FANTASTIC.....
What a beautiful piece of film and a refreshing and welcomed change, makes you appreciate just being outside. Poetry x
Passion for angling right there, great film guys 👊🙂
Chris is truly the "God Father" of British fishing and the reason I wet a line to this day an absolute legend and I think in time Martin will become as legendry as the gentleman angler Chris yates.
What I'd give to spend a days fishing with Chris Yates! - truly a legend
It wouldn't all be fishing though. It would involve, tea drinking, cake eating, frisbee throwing, sleeping, and also fishing.
@@CB-xr1eg its called enjoying it
@@daleHarrison93 I didn't say otherwise, I actually agree with you.
I was just pointing out what a day with Chris would involve. I'm currently reading one of his books...The Deepening Pool. Its very good reading.
@@CB-xr1eg haha nice1 bro, im going to try get a few old fishing books chris yates and rod hutchinson cant wait to read
@@daleHarrison93 4 Chris Yates books I would recommend are...Casting At The Sun, Falling In Again, The Deepening Pool, The Secret Carp.
Also, A Passion For Angling which is a companion to the tv series.
A massive round of applause to whoever was involved in filming, producing,this gem of a fishing adventure . Almost as good as being there myself.
He still has the look in his eye when he let conker go proper angling !!! Love it !!!!
Brilliant! Chris's way is so down to earth, it seems the right way. A joy to watch.
My dad introduced Chris to Redmire many years ago and was friends for many years so it's always a pleasure to see Chris fishing. Unfortunately my dad has Alzheimer's so this last summer was probably his last ever trip out but I managed to help him get a few near-20lbers.
what year would that of been roughly? and how did ur dad find out about redmire and did he ever fish it? bless him hope he is good and able to get on the bank again
@@daleHarrison93 cheers dude but he's just been sectioned due to Al Zimer (his friend he calls Al)! Anyway, he was friends with the head groundsman and got Chris in :) Would have been before i was born in 68...perhaps a few years so 1965 ish.
Outstanding fishing film, one of the best I've seen!
Chris is such a humble gentlemen, id give anything to fish a night with him drinking tea and just listening to story after story.
THUMBS UP Best carp film since a passion for angling. Chris Yates you have inspired a nation of anglers and you continue to do so. Thank you for showing us how special this sport is. You are a legend.
Dont get much better than this reminds me of being a kid and watching a passion for angling!! Carp vids dont get made like this anymore.. an absolute treat well done fellas
Wow. Incredible attitude towards angling. Absolute legend.
Martin attemps a high 5 and mr yates obliges with a gentlemans handshake, what a true angling gent
How truly amazing. Can’t believe I haven’t watched this before. Superb. Chris is what carping needs more of.
Float fishing for Carp: how it should be. Yates a Legend.
Amazing film, best i've seen for a small age. Perfect antidote to most other fishing programs.
The joy of small things- the delight of a float sinking, or the bubbles around the float….
No one legend but two !! , I'm a match angler and even I was glued to this. Well done sticky baits and what I would give to ee Chris fishing at Martin's place in Thailand 🤗💯 , now that would be a viral video thanks again Andy watts.
I would buy Sticky bait purely to help finance productions like this 👍 Superb.
A truly elegant film, but that is what one expects of the legendary Mr Yates and he never fails to delight!!
Loved watching this video,Chris Yates has a gift of reminding us the true magic of what inspired us to take up angling,the boyish excitement is rekindled when you watch his videos. Long may they continue!
Thankyou for this, it brought back so many happy memories. This is true fishing to me. I just wish there were more lakes like this still around for my own children to enjoy.
This is sheer genius, amazing camera work, 👏🏻 bravo
Passion for angling 2019!! 🤘🏼
Brilliant film which made me smile all the way through, we should all take a step back and look at the Chris Yates approach to fishing/life he's blissfully unaware of the modern day carp rat race, a true gentleman and legend.
Thank you Sticky Baits that was an awesome fishing program, no mentions of the “in” rig or latest hook length & bait, just 2 mates enjoying a fishing session.... Magical 👍
Really enjoyed how this made the notion of 3.5lb t/c rods, 4oz leads and 10+kg of bait look mildly ridiculous. Of course that has it's place in modern angling, but this really boiled the best things about angling to its essence - friendship, solitude, nature and, of course...big carp :)
Chris never disappoints his way of fishing is simple but very masterful. A TRUE fishing legend and a great man. Martin is clearly very talented and in my opinion an angler who can pick up the baton from Chris in the years to come.
Legends pure and simple. They have the essence of fishing no ego's promoting products just fishing relaxing and good banter.Excellent.
Beautiful guy could listen to him all day👌
It’s my childhood all over again “ passion for angling “.
Chris’s perfect poetry entwined in his fishing captivated first time round. So awesome to have his magic on the screen again 👍
Two of the most wonderful men in our sport, in my opinion, Thank you so much, Chris. And thank you, Martin.
Laugh
put your fingers away
Absolutely love this, beautifully filmed, really captured Chris's emotions after the release of conker. Would love to see more of Chris showing his passion on screen once more.
This has the be the greatest carp fishing video I’ve seen in years absolute perfection from start to finish! Chris Yates is the most incredible man in the world and his passion and love for the countryside and angling is second to none
Best fishing video I have seen in a very long time and how fishing should be. A big salute to Chris who was the one who set me off casting at the sun and to Martin for this real gem
It's 2:30 at night and I have seen this video twice before like the three before it. These are addictive and stunning.
loved that, not a pushed product in sight. keep up the good work
Legends ❤️
This film took me right back to my childhood when i used to watch a passion for angling about 4 times a week the same episode with chris and bob on redmire when i first started carp fishing . So much as changed now over the years it would be nice to be able to go stalking again on a nice quiet lake , but quiet lakes dont exist anymore 🤣🤣 and carp fishing as turned selfish over the years with everyone thinking there better than each other with their new tackle and new bait and how far they can cast a spomb . its sad to see a sport that i love slowly dying . Nice one sticky for making a film showing what carp fishing is really about . 👍👍
This is a film I keep coming back to, it keeps me grounded. Fishing as it should be.
This and The Lost World of Mr Hardy have to be two of the best fishing videos ever made. Absolutely beautiful.
Stunning its the reason i started carp fish back when you could have a pond or lake to yourself as a carp angler.
Still love my fishing but long for peacefully quiet lake .
Theres still a few secrets maybe not massive but plenty of peace and quiet and stunning fish.
Chris Yates all around gent old school special guy.
Find peace in bass fishing and be anonymous!!!
Wow I felt as though I was there and without all the tackle tart crap..such a lovely video and that hour went quick 👌
This is pure quality with two fantastic guys out on the lake. I’ve watched this over and over. Now that’s angling. What a special film this is. 👍🏻
How carp videos should be.....
How carp *FISHING* should be....
@@ryandigings7335 but its the videos nowadays that ruined it...and alot of the stupid gear, like £3000 baitboats i bought 1 when i was younger about 15 year ago the best 1 you could get, i did 2 trips and sold it.. fishing wasn't the same no matter how many fish you catch
