well done mark nice chub and a fantastic river bream .not many bream like that out of rivers these days so well done ,its interesting the mink Latin name sodious.. painious in the arreous and mink Latin name nastiuos.. visious.. bastardious,...,hate each other both pest and both eating their way though what little wild life and fish we have left. i just hope that covid mutates in liking otter and mink.well mark smashing video keep um coming it helps us get through the cold winter evenings .tight lines mark till you next adventure down by the water .cheers

Mink otters seal on the river wear in Sunderland through to Durham.A seal goes upto 15 miles to Durham city, the wear is terrible I don't know how the EA says that it's the second best river in the UK for seatrout.

Lovely bream that one mate 👍

Its the time of year for our four legged friends..... will see more and more dead half eaten stuff on the bank , over winter now. (not good) Good video mate.

Hi Mark, in sixty + years of fishing, I have never used cheese paste but I'm going to give it a try before the end of this season and was wondering if you have ever made cheese paste boilies, if so how did it go and how did you make them? Keep up with your videos they really are vey good.

Lovely fish 👍

lovely bream fella

Cracking video as ever mate 👍🏻 but that bream?! It was a beautiful colour 👍🏻👍🏻

What a beautiful bream. Looks like it’s just been cast in bronze in some craftsman’s forge!

Hello Mark, very good spot and nice approach for this beautiful fish!! cool see you soon!!

I get a lot of mink in my spots as well. Rarely do they impact the fishing though. The Beavers and Mink tend to be welcome entertainment. lol

yeh on my smaller rivers they tend to spook the fish argh :(

Hi Mark mink are becoming a real problem, we were fishing a club match last Tuesday on a commercial fishery and could not believe what we witnessed, a mink dragged a 6lb carp out of the margins, luckily Frank in the next peg chased it off with his landing net and put the carp back into the lake, unbelievable to see. I know it's nature but where do we draw the line when these predators are devastating our fish stocks especially on our rivers?

Haha Mark, I'd fancy the roast too! Even when it is tough going, you still manage to pull some quality fish - well done! Glad you have had some rain finally, we are just about to have a flood emergency in South Australia, the Murray River is running at a 70 year high.

What strengh line would you use on rivers for using a drennan ultralight mini feeder rod, I see in past videos you use one, any advice would be appreciated.

Kev i would not go above 6lb breaking strain with it if targeting chub in snaggy swims etc.

I'm gonna buy a bigger landing net ,,that 1 pounder turned into a 4 pounder on closer inspection 🤔 😀
