- I've been fishing for carp in the USA for 7 years now, but never quite broken the 40lb barrier. On this adventure I hoped to change that!

Top class fishing, top class friends and a wonderful film. No swearing, endless explosions, or meaningless smut, just a bunch of well mannered, kind, funny young men, enjoying nature and their own company. Great job Carl and what a terrific bunch of friends you've developed.
Thanks Kevin :) really appreciate that.
Exactly, well said mate. No drunk middle aged fat foul mouthed "Expert" anglers fishing muddy puddles for named fish who have had more photos than Marilyn Monroe.
Great comment KevinK, I totally concur 👍🏻🙂
I would like to give this comment more likes
I preach this so much, this is what youtube needs. No click bait just all genuine people producing quality film
This film is head and shoulders far better than anything put out by the marketing obsessed carp companies. They can't hold a candle to you with their sterile boring over stocked muddy puddle nonsense. You guys still keep the true essence of angling alive in your films. Location, simple baits, simple rigs, watercraft, wild fish, adventure, struggle, achievement. A wild 40 is beyond incredible.
Korda needs to recognise your american friends as key to what you've achieved here Carl. They should be employed to spread the Carp fishing message in the US. I've stopped watching the other commercial brands films because they're all the same. Your films have soul and passion. Thanks for doing it.
Wow, thanks so much Paul. That means a lot.
Well said... and so true, I've watched way too many the past 20 years, your setting the level high. Enjoy the journey, effort always equals reward 😁
Very true 🙂
Massively agree :)
@@sheldybabes1 LMFAO we found a salty employee
This guy doesn’t know how to make a bad video, cinematography is always perfect, narration is nothing to scoff at either, great content well done 👏🏻
❤ Thank you mate, that's incredibly kind.
The world needs more international friendships doing international things.
Nah it needs more kind to each other people on small scale... big time. Ask yourself simple question do you even know your neighbours..
@@ukaszhabdas9950 I know everyone on my street. First and last name basis.
Where are you from?
@@michaelchase418 that's really good... this days people don't know they neighbours not mentioning talking to them... in most cases they hate each other for some miningless reasons 😕
Yesss
In addition to the well-deserved compliments you get on your filming and editing, I hope you know how much your viewers appreciate what a genuinely kind person you clearly are. You, Gary Cahill Jr., Omi, Alex, and ALL the people you film with clearly aren't acting for the camera. Proper good and humble folks, the lot of ya. One of the few channels I can watch without skipping ANY of the time between fish. Keep crushing it Carl, Cal, and crew!
❤❤❤ Thank you so much mate. Really appreciate it :) all the best!
Well said.
Well said mate!
The most heartwarming part of this film is the friendships and young men who are clearly good human beings,which unfortunately doesn’t happen very much in modern social media films.the cinematography and editing is first class,the fishing inspirational 👏👏👏
❤ Agreed. Fishing has this habit of being able to help people form friendships, and the adventures bond you. I always appreciate this about the hobby. We wouldn't share the times we all do without it :)
"Don't be a catfish, please don't be a catfish." - My life as a South Carolina carp angler.
I felt that, Carl. I felt that sooooo much 🤣. Cracking video! Loved it.
Hahaha, thank you!
Yes, so often the case here in the US!
Strange to me hoping for carp over catfish xD to each their own!
Haha!
It amazes me how someone can make such quality content, Your an inspiration!
❤ Appreciate it
Absolutely brilliant Carl. And hats off to Austin for his perseverance and determination to become part of it. What awesome wild fish they were too.
Life long buddies I hope now too.😊
Thanks James! They certainly are 😊 Haha, yes love how he rocked up and immediately bagged a 40 hahaha
Quality video that was Carl proper enjoyed that, some spectacular big carp caught , a trip you will never forget 😁
Not afraid to say, that ending brought a tear to my eye. You guys get along so well. Even yho you are from different continents. These days the world is a smaller place. Well done all. 🤟🏻🤟🏻
❤❤❤
I'm always blown away when contemplating the time and effort that must go into bringing us these brilliant videos. I must also echo the sentiment of others in how much I appreciate the well mannered and good nature of you all. It's so refreshing and reassuring to know that people like you, Carl, are setting such a good example to the thousands of young anglers who look up to you and, I'm sure, follow your lead. Congratulations on your first American 40 pounder too.👍🏻🍻
❤ Thank you so much Richard. It's a lot of work, but always worth it :) All the best.
The American films are just a cut above anything else. Well done guys, epic! There's nothing else like this out there on other channel's. I think that it seems so unimaginable for most anglers to get out there and fish the states that make these videos so appealing. The Country and the waters are so vast and untapped that we wouldn't know where to start. Incredible and immaculate fish. Keep up the awesome work!
Thanks so much James, really appreciate it ❤
Quite simply, an awesome video of an epic adventure with great friends. Massive congrats on landing the big forty Carl, that alone is worth the hypothermic bones and waterlogged wellies.
❤ Thanks so much! Hahaha, certainly was.
Another fab vid!! Your content is great! Me, my 8yr old and the father in law make a thing of it now sitting down on a weekend binge watching your channels, great role models for young kids 😊🎣🙌👏👏
Thanks Mike!! So lovely to hear this. It means a lot to share this hobby and inspire young people to get out into nature and enjoy simple time outside.
Absolutely love your videos, every time I see your logo on notifications I get so exited, I’m a carp fisherman myself and will be forever! 🎣
As usual pure quality, Such a genuine guy too. Keep it up Carl ❤
❤️ Thanks so much Stu, happy you enjoyed it 😊
Let's just look how much effort he put in the videos he make and to think it filmed in Autumn it just amazing how much time it needed for editing❤
Carl is easily one of the best CZcamsrs in the platform, only recently found your content but I do really enjoy watching it, keep it up!!!
Ahh that's kind. Thank you mate. Really happy you're enjoying the videos!! All the best with your fishing. Carl :)
Once again you've done it. Your video editing and know how is unparalleled and top notch! It is true, your videos are the best! Wish it was a longer video though! Until next time...
U inspired me to do freshwater fishing when I’m a saltwater fisherman
That's cool to hear!
I think you should do more saltwater fishing!
I would love to you know! Will try :) I know Omi wants to as well!
Do you have the right equipment, saltwater Fishing is much more confusing then freshwater fishing.
Yeah I've got a bit of Salt water gear, we occasionally go sea fishing :)
That Brian lad what a grafter. Definitely someone you want with you fishing. Amazing video 💪
Another amazing video! Your videos are what got me into carp fishing because it is considered so alien to carp fish over here in the states. Now I am trying to go almost every weekend and I love it. I have learned so much from watching your videos that I could not have learned on my own. All of this has lead me to catching my first 30 and I hope to get a 40 sometime soon. Again, amazing video and I can’t wait for the next one.
Another fantastic video, Carl. Congratulations on your new pb. The best part for me, though, is seeing how fishing can bring friends together to have an amazing experience that won't be forgotten.
Well done mate. Awesome video and some beautiful fish. Really felt it with you when you had that 40+. So happy for ya mate. I'll probably watch this one a few more times before the next one!!
This video just had me smiling from the start to finish. From the editing, to the fish being caught, the 5 people in this video just enjoying each other’s company and some some amazing food being cooked you couldn’t ask for a better video to watch. Great group of boys
❤ Thanks Cameron. Glad you enjoyed it :)
Friendship is like a fishing trip; the most memorable moments are not just about the catches, but the laughter, the struggles, the stories, and the bond that is strengthened with each cast. Another amazing film. Another amazing adventure. Great work by everyone!
Beautifully put. Couldn't agree more. Thank you mate!
What a film! You have outdone yourself with this one! Absolutely amazing! Absolutely Loved the shots of the night sky with all the stars! Stunning fish also! Can’t imagine how you felt catching it after chasing it for 7 years! Thanks again for the amazing work!
I absolutely love watching your videos, I find that they are helping me so much in myself and helped me to start fishing again after a long time away. I've had a really bad time with depression and anxiety for many years now but now at 30 years old Ive found your channel and started watching your videos a few weeks ago and it has helped motivate me to get out of the house and outside starting to enjoy my life again. I genuinley enjoy watching your videos so much, i watch them every day and i just want to thank you for what you do, its people like you and your brother that make this world a good place to live in and I hope that the future brings you both many more years of happiness and adventure 😊
Ooooh mate, your International trips are just incredible. I love to watch them. You are by a country mile, the most entertaining and captivating angler to watch! Your mates across the pond are excellent anglers too! Great to watch you all! Bravo for the pbs !
Thanks for the kind comment, yep they're great people :)
I would say you are the holy grail of new generation fishing ytbers like me, the amount of work plan story telling u do and quality with the limitations u got, thats the way to go for future.... As we are being stuffed with so much of fishing content every day (even i does in my local language) I just want to say thank u man, keep healthy keep going❤❤
❤ Really appreciate that, glad you enjoyed it :) thank you mate
I didn't want the video to end. My favourite fishaman. Been a fan and following you for years my man and you're American adventures are something else to the CZcams viewers. Absolutely fantastically played out i don't need to tell you how much we love them. Thankyou
❤
Just superb. Your film making skills are just getting better and better Carl. What a team you and Cal are, what fantastic friendships and what a lovely way to share it with us all. You have a very bright future my friend, aim high.
❤ Thank you, that's kind.
Oh yes Carl, oh YES 😍😍😍 i really love this kind of video! The States, friends, fishing and bank life!!! And of course the biggest video quality ever! I'm from Italy and i'm watching your videos because there's no italian fishing youtuber with this quality!! Amazing! Thx for another great video!
PS The amazing sensation of thinking you fish is off and then you can feel it again, pumping as hell... ❤️
Watching this video i cried a lot. Because my dad had cancer and then he died, he was the best dad ever! I still remember that last fishing with him!
So sorry to hear that. Glad you have those last fishing memories. Sounds like he was a great Dad ❤
So amazing and inspirational documentries/fishing films, so many awesome memories you have made and we can witness at home as well. Well done for your PB Carl!
Thank you mate! Happy you enjoyed it :)
Great Video and what a trip! A bunch of all round good guys doing what they love and getting the rewards at the end.
Carl fantastic fisherman, lots of detail and passion, great videos,great to see friends really into each other ,,Carl and his brother Alex are right up there with the best fisherman around today by far
All you video's are brilliant but these ones are by far my favourite ones to watch, iv got family in Kansas who have a lake on their land with carp in everytime I watch these videos im itching to get over there. Can't wait for the next one already.
Carl, guys, you are awesome. The footage is really addicting and make me (us) reassuring that there are so many joys and beauties in this world. Thank you!!!
Congrats Carl. Absolutely buzzing for you! Your content continues to get better and is much much more than just a fishing channel. Already dying for next upload😩
Keep smashing it👊🏼
Thanks so much Jordan! :)
Congratulations on your massive carp, Carl! Being an American, I beam with pride that you caught some fish of a lifetime over here! You tell a story so well and the videos are beautiful! Cheers, mate!
Ahhh thank you man :) It was a dream for so long! So happy you enjoyed it!
This video captures the essence of fishing perfectly. Friends, food, laughs and cry’s, but overall just enjoying the moments and the magic. Those scenic time-lapse shots are mega! Keep on doing your thing Carl 👍
Thank you! ❤ So glad you enjoyed it :)
I had tears of joy in my eyes watching this video. big congrats to you for your new PB!
And again you brought us a wonderful storie about friendship and perseverance. I loved every minute of it
Thanks so much for watching!!!
Fabulous video, the photography is exceptional. The fishing was amazing, with some huge fish caught.Your American hosts made this video Carl...Friendships forged like this, last a lifetime . Well done 👌
Great work - brilliant video, a great continuation of the story with the guys in the US, and the smile on Cal’s face with his PB made it a great watch.
Cheers Alex!
Carl you’ve inspired me to fish endless amounts since last year, I had mental health issues and since starting my fishing journey you’ve helped me from your videos with watercraft. From catching my first barbel to catching all my carp! Thankyou for your content
So happy to hear this :) Cheers Carl ❤ All the best with your fishing!
Fly fishing for carp in Utah is my favorite. The inlet to the great salt lake, a bird sanctuary, holds so many monsters. Its always fun to see you across the pond in the states brother. Its gorgeous control you explore.
Absolutely incredible Carl! 🔥 What a grafter you are, respect man! 🎣💪
What an amazing trip,that epitomised what fishing is all about. Couldn’t believe the amount of ground bait he put in 😮🐟🎣
Set aside the travel, the meeting of old friends, the stresses of all this endured during the precess, you STILL somehow capture insanely beatiful cinemtography that blows my mind. These arent just videos they are works of art. btw I miss Alex from your vids, i know he has his own channel, but you will always be Carl and Alex.
Wow! Simply amazing. A tough trip to endure but the most amazing success! Hats off to you boys for getting the job done. The footage was fantastic. Congratulations on the PB’s 👊🏻
Yep it was a tough one! But so worth the graft. Thanks so much :)
Congratulations on the 40 your video's are amazing thanks for making them.🎣🎣🎣🎣👍
Never, ever doubt your ability to bring us all superb, top quality, yes & even sensational footage Carl - inspirational to the highest degree...!!!
Thank you Gary!! :)
Amazing vid, as always! I was so glad to finally see another documentary-style vid come out! It absolutely did not disappoint :) Congratz on your American PB, Carl!
Thank you mate! :)
Absolute joy to watch. Proper angling with a great bunch of people. Outstanding carp caught on those sessions. Those cold harsh nights made up for it in the end. Maybe that heavy baiting did the trick haha. I look forward to your future journeys with friends. Keep up the great work.
Thanks Jake!!
I have been waiting for a new video to drop. Thanks man!! 🎉🎉
Enjoy!!
Amazing video! Congrats on the 40+ love these international vids!
Beautiful scenery, misty♡♡♡
Absolutely freaking amazing viewing as always Carl and friends. Best Yet. Made my weekend that as. I’m going fishing.❤
Congratz with your 40 + Carl. Amazing video again!
Amazing fishing and of course, amazing video! Very inspiring, had my first 3 carp on Monday as well!!! Big, great session! Nice fish too carl, keep it up!
Another incredible watch. These videos just go from strength to strength. You can see the differnce everytime. I think DF needs to give you your own show too. Keep up the fantastic work team Carl 👏 💪
Thank you! :)
Hey carl, since coming back to fishing the past week, ive watched so many of your videos, And learned so much! hoping to catch my first carp this weekend with your tips! Great video keep up the great work fellow fisherman! :)
This was a superb watch Carl, thank you for your time and effort.
Thank you! You're welcome, happy you enjoyed it :)
Outstanding, as ever. Not only the angling, but the general cinematography makes you feel like you're there. Kudos sir!
Thanks so much :)
Just amazing, every minute of the adventure was incredible. Thank you Carl for sharing, and what a wonderful video.
Ah you're so welcome :) Thank you!!
This is awesome stuff. Beautiful 40+ common . Thank you for sharing.
This one gave me chills brotha , glad you all got on some amazing specimen size carp 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Congratulations on your USA 40 Carl, what a trip you guys had, that lake looked amazingly beautiful, that last day when the sun came out was stunning, followed up with a stake dinner and another 40 what a trip! 😍
It was hard, but incredible :)
For a "smaller" channel, the quality of your videos blows me away. The honesty of the journey is so refreshing, too. Fab stuff and captures perfectly what angling is all about.
Thank you mate, really appreciate that.
Beautiful video ! Those fish looked so healthy, very solid, but not overly fat - congrats on your 40 plus American carp 👍
Yess so healthy! Cheers Nick! :)
I knew this was going to be an epic video from the start, and I was right. Beautifully done as always! You do such an amazing job with your videos. They never fail to amaze me. Great job, and thank you for posting such amazing content!
Thank you Sean! You're welcome mate :) So happy you enjoyed it
Brilliant film guys! Was looking forward to this one and I wasn't disappointed! Well done🐟🐠🐡🎣
Thanks so much Trevor!! :)
I have always wanted to go to the USA to go carp fishing but now I have seen your video I want to go even more!
Hope you get to mate!
Awesome! Thanks so much for sharing mate!
You're welcome, glad you enjoyed it Robert!
It's always nice to see how fishing brings people together across national borders. Keep it up Carl! Greetings from Germany
Your Videos kept me excited for the start of carp season, and today in sunny weather i caught a beautiful 55cm Common with my ultralight Setup. Thanks for your videos, i always enjoy watching them😊👍
Well done!! ❤
What an amazing video Carl! That trip looked insane! Keep up the great work and the amazing film making ! Your video’s always make me happy and your kind words ! I hope you have a good day !
So happy to hear that :) cheers Max! You too mate.
What a film. Brilliant again Carl. Well done guys on the 40+ fish you all caught. Tight lines
Thanks so much :)
amazing vid! I wish i il land my first 30+ this year in the Netherlands. I did not realize this video was 35 minutes, it felt like 5 haha. quality video mate!
Wow what a result that took you to the edge amazing adventure stuck for words ..Thanks for sharing this
We have 30s and 40s in the waters of South Carolina!!! We have commons,mirrors and buffalo. The buffalo will get 40+ regularly but I don't catch them as often as what we call yellows. I love catching wild carp!!!!!
Absolutely a perfect reflection of how I experience my fishing. Beautiful film images give me goosebumps just like being there myself on the waterside. enjoying he little things, friendship and adventure. Congratulations, greetings from the Netherlands 🎉
❤
Awesome video as always, hope to see another trip there again soon. Triple the bait and do it first second and third day. You can't over feed so many fish in such a big water. 👏 hats of to your friends putting you on the fish.
Amazing video, and a massive well done to you all, wish I was young...again, but all the work, thanks to you all.
This really makes me happy, you an artist, thank you
You're welcome :) thanks man, happy you enjoyed it
Well done Carl and Co 👏👏👏
Amazing trip and video 👏👏👏
Cool shots of that misty 4am catch! Good choice of music too.
Taking some catharsis in watching this video as I went fishing yesterday and blanked when the guy in the swim next to me pulled out two 20lb+ carp
Cheers Adam! Oh noo, that's always painful!
You know what's really nice about these adventures ???? .. watching you , your brother and all your friends grow into fantastic young men and women.. time is precious and can never be returned but is immortalised in these Vlogs .. stay blessed 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽👊🏽✌🏽💜
❤❤❤
Glad your back great video
Another epic trip, and another epic presentation. Congrats to you both on the new PBs! Here's to 7 more years of US fishing trips!
Thank you! ❤
Hi Carl, watched your video with great joy and empathy as we fisherman share the same ups and downs, as we are not in control but love to participate. Real content with real people trying their best no matter the odds against them. Thank you and we appreciate all the hard work put in to create and share it with us. May there be many more. Rudolf from Cape Town :)
Appreciate that, thank you! You're welcome Rudolf :) Happy you enjoyed it.
I have been waiting for this video like a kid waiting for Christmas. Loved the video. Congrats on the USA 40 Carl!
haha thanks mate! Glad you enjoyed. Crazy to think I'm going back to this lake literally next week :)
@@fishwithcarl I heard Austin had mentioned it. Best of luck to you guys!
Massive
Congrats carl; well done , ive feel like i was there with you, having watched this journey from the get go !👌👌👍👍
Thanks so much Raymond :)
Stunning location, great quality carp, bunch of friends having a blast and amazing video quality. Great video yet again, your passion shows! Keep it up.
Thank you!! Ahh really appreciate it :)
Absolutely loved this Carl! Nice work, nice Fish
Happy to hear that mate :) Thank you!
years ago i fished for carp north of Detroit, Michigan using corn and bread balls. with all the other species of fish to target i have not returned to carp not sure i could endure that 7 day camping trip but maybe i'll give carp another go. crazy good video as always thanks so much for all the work y'all put into these videos i know at times it's a very thankless job and insanely time consuming from trying to do it myself.
Amazing video as always bud. Always eagerly waiting for uploads from you. Much love from South Africa
Than you mate :) Next film out on the 27th! Big love!
When passion, angling and friendship becomes one!! What a video well done all involved
Yessss ❤ Thank you mate :)
