A real mixture of vintage and modern tackle , but very traditional with most of the approach to fishing.
The barbel fishing on that very beautiful stretch of the Hampshire Avon is superb, as are most of the scenes on this wonderfully filmed video.
However for me the best section of all is when he is fishing at a beautiful remote pool for wild carp with an old MKIV and Mitchell and catches a stunning dark old carp.
Mentioned on the previous page Julian, I also found it most enjoyable...

Apologies Jerry, I read through the whole post again just before I posted that but somehow missed it- probably too many shandys :Hahaha:

I almost forgot James Prosek's beautiful Izaak Walton documentary:

I said goodbye to what I knew and embraced the ways of old, with it taking on the attitude that big isn't best.

It has to be The secret carp with Christopher Yates. Takes me to a different plateau every time. Wonderful.

Andy Orme's contribution has a surreal quality to it that we all will recognise at some point
