Jimmy's Diary - Small Island BIG Carp!
Each year, I head over to the Isle of Wight for a go at fishing for some unique, scaly mirror carp and rather hefty commons.
In this piece, I experience a rather wonderful session on a beautiful island that isn't normally renowned for big carp.

I was thinking of popping over to the Isle of Wight for a short holiday.... Then stumbled across your video! Even a better reason to go! It never crossed my mind to carp fish there! Great video 👍👍👍😎😎😎

I had a kettle with a whistle spout which is OK as long as you don't get a take whilst the kettles on for a brew. You become torn between playing your fish and stopping the annoying whistle. I done away with the whistle bit in the end. Nice session for a cold February well done.

Great vlog and congrats on your own channel. Thanks for not charging us to watch. 🙏. A great catch at a very tough time of year 💪and your tip with the mole hill dirt is a banger. Getting them naturals to the deck like that is a winner. I can emagine it clouds up realy well if there's any agitation down there aswell 👌 The kettle is abit shiny for my liking, but im sure it will look beter after a few seasons 😂 Keep them coming James. Great content 👍

Great vlog James , and the fish was gorgeous . The molehill soil is a great method , you could add a little bit of aquarium gravel if you need to get bait down to the bottom quickly ( i.e. river fishing ) . Keep that kettle ; maybe get ' Huxley ' and 'Barley ' engraved on it ? I say 63lb 8oz for your pb 👍
