It may have been a much different story on a different day. That’s something of which you’ll have to draw your own conclusions. The obvious conclusion is that tench are a much more difficult fish to catch than carp, which may, or may not, be true. On the other hand practically every carp that sees the hookbait, gobbles it up. In Part One we see tench repeatedly shying away from the hookbaits yet freely consuming the loose offerings. Much of what you see is open to interpretation. Of course we can, but we do have to take into consideration that the Horseshoe fish, on those days, may not be typical of every fish in every water on every day. Other fish in other waters in different conditions may behave quite differently.īut that doesn’t mean to say that we can’t learn from the Horseshoe fish. Right, so what do the DVDs tell us? What do we learn from them? Well, to start with, we have to realise that we are learning how the fish in Horseshoe Lake behaved on the days the film was shot. The camera work and editing is excellent, perhaps not up to BBC standards, but considering they don’t have the resources or the manpower of the BBC, it’s probably as good as you’re going to get. Fortunately, he comes across with authority and explains in detail just what is going on in the footage, or at least his own interpretation of what’s going on. This is almost unique footage in professionally made coarse fishing video films, where the angler can actually see what’s going on underwater.Īnd make no mistake, Danny Fairbrass is a good presenter, rather than have too many ‘silent’ gaps, as there are in many fishing videos/DVDs, Danny doesn’t have that problem he can chat for England.

They look at how rigs settle on the bottom, camouflage options, rigs for weed and gravel, how weed lies on the lake bed, inline and swivel lead options.īonus features on the DVD include Danny showing you how to make pop-up boilies at the water’s edge. Rigs are filmed from every angle right from the rig through to the rod, taking a look at and comparing four popular braided, mono and fluorocarbon lines.īaits are picked up off the bottom in a variety of ways, using both running and fixed rigs, stretchy mono lines and non-stretch braids, the split screen showing you the effect on different types of indicator. Using split-screen technology this footage is married with what Danny is doing on the bank. The DVD follows a marker float from 80 yards out, right up to the margins, through gravel and sand. Part 2 continues in that vein but concentrates on the look and mechanics of modern day tackle. Part 1 concentrated on fish activity in the swim and gave an insight into fish feeding behaviour. The film attempts to answer many questions that previously we could only guess at. How the fish react to pop-ups is another eye-opener. You’ll see carp, tench and small silver fish feeding, and how they react to rigs and baits. You’ll see a spodful of bait fall through the water and how the fish react to it. The presenter, Danny Fairbrass, takes the viewer through a host of rigs and attempts to answer the many questions that arise as the camera sees the fish pick up, or attempt to pick up, the bait.

The film is shot on one very small clear patch of the Carp Society’s famous Horseshoe Lake in Gloucestershire. It shows, for the first time, how fish feed by putting a camera right in front of their noses. This is the film that broke new ground in coarse fishing, the fact that it is aimed at carp fishing in particular does not detract from what can be learned from it in regard to other species.
