Well done Mark.....another good video congratulations on your new pb

Hey Mark, hope alls well haven't seen you in a while. The emotion of this capture brought back so many happy memories of my barbel PB the last ever fish I caught before leaving UK. Your videos help me to connect from 4000miles away... with what was my life's passion. Hope to be sharing more of your sessions again soon.

Always amazing video's great skills monster specimens and a good bloke at the end of it a gentleman you are mark.Hopefully we see you back soon mate.

Hope you are well mate. Wishing you all the best and hope to see you on the bank soon…

Well done that man. A stunner of a fish and on a pin aswell . Going back to what you said about fishing helping with mental health, today I went deadbaiting for pike on our local canal with 2 of my friends our children. Not 1 fish was banked but we had an amazing time cooking on the bank and passing on our passion to the next generation, cooking bacon and laughing over old stories. This time of year is difficult for me for personal reasons but today it was like all my worries had gone away. Well done Mark. Look forward to the next video

I've started to think like Mark, the fishing has gotten so hard (for all the wrong reasons which we all know🙄) I just like to get out, and whilst I fish my best, I accept that blanking is a way of life now & just enjoy the trip... a run (love my piking) is a bonus... 🤗 Really delighted for him, he's a nice guy and deserves it !! 😉 😎👍☘️🍺

Fantastic fish, well done. Great channel.

Clonker!!. Delighted for you Mark.

cracking fish, very well done
