Thanks Lee, luckily we didn't need to break the ice when filming the next episode.

Hola Mark, I'm like a big old bear I have to hibernate when it gets that cold. It's good to see that you guys are human but you didn't blank and that's the main thing. Really enjoyed the video, thanks, regards Jim

A really good, and honest video. You don't always get massive hauls of fish. I really enjoyed the way it was filmed. Brilliant !!

good honest video mark as you said its called fishing not catching, only ever broke the ice to fish once 20 years ago and caught 3 roach and 2 nice perch on maggot one nearly 2lb I weighed it in carrier bag and it felt like I had won the lottery when its hard and don't expect it it feels more rewarding

Nice one Polly

Beautifully edited, music so much better....obviously a lot of thought gone into this one. Many thanks, so full of info and good ideas!

Must be an age thing the cold A young mans Game lol Great video Mark I use Matrix super Match hooks I will be showing them on my Youube Vlog shortly

My days of going in that weather are done... I'm 38 and I go on a few mild days threw the winter only. I used to go and crack lakes at 8am but not now!

Well done with persevering to make these videos when it is really cold. Really hard fishing the back end off last and the start of this year. Think the fish got wind that the weather was not going to be good and nipped abroad for the winter lol

Hopefully the ice breakers can be packed away now for the rest of the winter.

Yeah hopefully great videos mate tight lines

Brave man!!!!!!

personally i'd have fished those two lines the other way around. Bread along the reeds/bridge. Then mags out in the open/deeper water.

nice video. just shows how hard fishing can be sometimes. have you ever tried a leech on the hook as bait?

We've not heard of anyone using them. The fish must eat them though?

A really nice video. But a lot of things I would never do in winter, like tipping in maggots and pellets. In my experience it tends to stop the bites alltogether...

I think I can give you a good tip this time, leave a small bait box behind you and now and again top up with pinkies or maggots using your pole cup, this saves the robin having to grub about in the grass hunting when he could be feeding straight from the bait box.Ha Ha but once again an excellent video helping us not as adept as you.

Certainly was a tough day

Seems like such a decent bloke

mark , here is a tip for you, find yourself an old put over pole and fit a weed cutter to the top section , it will cut the ice in no time .

BRILL

that's the truth about fishing. Mark will you do a class on why fish are some times sitting at certain depths are they in a thermal layer or is there a layer in 6ft of water . I think most of use fish dead depths apart for bread fishing to a man.

Music was much better in this vid. My days of going fishing when the weather is like that are long gone! Fair play to you guys though.

Nice video but even I predicted how much he would catch when you saw how thick the Ice was

Nice vid , sounds like bob nudd

I would have fed in the open water and dobbed by the bridge but what do I know

Iain, that could have worked, Mark based his approach on what he knows of the venue, where he was dobbing was a sunken, lilly bed that comes to the surface in the winter, it usually holds a lot of fish.

This guys voice is identical to bob nudd
