The purpose of this Vlog is to demonstrate and document my angling on the various venues i fish.
I have been a course fisherman since i was a small boy but it wasn't until i moved to Cambridgeshire that i started to get the urge to go for something bigger. The illustrious and mysterious specimen carp became my quarry and it has been one long and interesting learning journey.
Unlike most types of fishing I find carp fishing can be the most complex. Rigs, bait, location, WATERCRAFT are all things that you learn over time. What i have found is that watching KZread Vlogs and researching blogs has helped me to understand some of the complexities of Carp Fishing and has helped me to catch fish.
All the tackle i use is mid range and relatively inexpensive. All of the venues i fish are available on a day ticket. I mostly use PCF baits and my current PB is a modest 32.6lb Common Carp.
I hope you enjoy the vlogs. Please like, subscribe and share!

Hi boys brilliant bivvy i got mosquito full door extension and warp and Scullcap
Nice one mate. Hope you’re enjoying it!
And thank for the advice on the ND2 boat
@@sc-hw4zu I’m using mine this weekend! Great bit of kit.👍
@@TheCambridgeCarper I was on Lyon’s Wednesday Thursdays in wind it bounced over waves
@@TheCambridgeCarper definitely bud wish I had it last month at homle fen
Wel done ☑️
Cheers mate
Lake is so weedy now and they have opened up more swims it's ridiculous gets proper swamped
That’s a shame. Used to be good fun.😔
How do you like fishing with this ship? Is he reliable? Has the echo sounder tripled and does the autopilot work exactly?
Apologies for the late response. I've had it coming up to a year now and i really cant fault it. The Echo sounder is mid level but it does the job, there are more detailed videos out there showing that. The autopilot from my experience is very accurate i would say within a foot or so. A top boat for the money.
What’s the fish finder like on this mate? Do you have a video of that
Prob the best swim on the lake ... cant believe 12 people over looked it lol
I'm seriously thinking about 1 ov theese how you getting on with it please
It’s highly rated mate, a good piece of kit.👍
What’s the bottom like on this lake guys? Is it weedy?
It has 900 location points not 30. My bad😳👍
The spare battery for£59 on there website don't look the same as the one you had
No mate, I think they sell it with a smaller battery now
Great review mate. I've been pondering over getting an actor with gps. And have recently decided that this nd2 is an option also. But couldn't find much info on how it all works with the app purchases for auto pilot etc. Your review has cleared this all up. So thanks. The nd deeper arm is spot on. This is how I want to set up also as I already have deeper. The brackets available for the actor are no where near as good and has practice as this one by nd. And i think that's what's finally sold me on getting the nd boat instead. One question. I've always dragged the deeper at the rear. And I see you do it from front, any reason for this? Or is it just preferable for you
I have a different attachment now mate and drag it from the back also. This new arm allows the deeper to float naturally.👍
Looks good! I’ve been an angler for 20 odd yrs but only in the last year got into carp fishing, would like to know more about your range of baits if you have a website as I don’t use FB. TIY!
Hi mate, check out www.premiumcarpfishing.com Great bait, great team!
Have you tryed the boat in weed or taken it over to slightly bigger lakes like france. Seriously considering ine
Taking it to France at Easter mate so we shall see. Used it in heavy weed once where it didn’t cope to well. Was really heavy weed though
Hi which cult bag did you buy ? The standard one or the large one
Hi mate, was the large one.👍
Brilliant video
Hi Lloyd, great video..... My friend and I are out in peg 17 on December 3rd 2022...can't wait now. Really interesting what you say about not spombing. We are bringing bait boats with us, ears pricked up when you started talking about how you were baiting. So many people I have spoken to are saying to spomb the crap out of it to get the fish feeding. Nice to see a completely different perspective and baiting approach. Thanks for posting the video, so much of the stuff on KZread now starting to get a bit old now so an up to date film was great to watch! Cheers, Kevin
Thanks Kevin for the feedback, Sorry for the Massive delay in replying - I hope you had a great trip! I'm back this year in September and i might do a return video!
Cracking watch again buddy , well done
Cheers bud.👍
Like on any rc system, turn on the handset first, then the boat. When switching off, turn off the boat first, then the handset. That way you always have control of your boat. A safety procedure derived from model aircraft. It looks a well thought out piece of kit. I have the Viper3 with ff and gps, cost twice that price, i wish id seen this at the time.
Quality piece of kit. I have had them all the ridgemonkey fox powerpack and this atom is top of the list. Like yourself we take ours camping etc took it too France for a week and 2 years later it's still going strong. 10/10 👍
Agreed. I love mine.
Hi your video is well made and exicuted well .will a bait boat 1. fit in this cult deluxe bait bag thank you 😁
I’m not sure buddy as I don’t own one. Best check dimension sizes with ND to be sure.👍
Thank you for your reply and have wonderfull day 😁
Cost ??
What bivvy is that please? I have a jrc rova bed and am having trouble finding a bivvy that's big enough for it without touching the sides. Great video
Hi mate, it’s a fox Royale 2 man. I don’t think they do that one anymore but sure they do an equivalent.👍
I just got my bait boat 2 but it came with a smaller battery pack did you buy the bigger battery pack? I am assuming you brought the GPS via the app and you didn’t have to buy anything hardware wise
altbatteries do a larger version ND2 bait boat Lithium Battery Pack Li-ion 14.8V 14Ah / 12Ah / 10Ah
Yeah I bought it through the app mate. I just use the battery that came with it.👍
Good review. One question, does it work well in cold weather ( above +5 Celsius). Ridge monkey has significant decrease in power if temperature outside is low (litium-polimer). I'm hasitating between Atom Pro and Fox Halo 96k
I can’t fault it to be honest mate. The only thing that does bug me a bit is there is a fan kicks in. Even when it’s not that hot. I like a bit of white noise though, helps me get to sleep.😁
Very nice review, thank you 👍
Great angling mate 👌
Cheers mate.👍
Cambridge carper but I’m sensing a little bit of northern twang in your accent? Am I right?
Yes mate from the north originally
Same here mate, from Morecambe, Lancashire but now live in Cambridgeshire 🥳
#New Direction
think the fan only kicks when using the 3 pin plug
Hi, Is that the standard cult bag or the XL, thanks.
Hi mate, think it was the standard. 👍
I’d love to see how long it would run a mini fridge!?
Not sure about a mini fridge but I tried an electric cool box and it drained fairly fast…
@@TheCambridgeCarper I have seen people running fridges in France but not sure if they was electric could have been gas 🤷🏼♂️
fingers crossed you dont need to send one back , there customer service is so bad !
nice one👍👍
👍👍👍👍👍
Don't know if I should get this or the new actor boardman plus
I don’t know about the actor mate, but I’m pretty suited with this one.👍
never seem to get anyluck over at manor farm always have to pull out the waggler and float
If you have never tried this lake I can highly recommend it.👍
@@TheCambridgeCarper where about on the lake did you set up we got left in the far corner as it was heavily booked
@@Hyper-Wubba this video is from a few years ago now but we were on the south bank, I think!!
Have you got a link to buy the deeper arm please?
I bought mine off Amazon mate. No longer have the link I’m afraid.
Hi Where did you buy it from because I cannot find it
I just bought it from the website mate. Think it’s like anything else, hard to get hold of at the minute.
hi I am booked on 3 nights early July any advice appreciated and are there toilets and water supply on site
Hi, yes there is toilets on site and there used to be a water supply near the shop but not sure if it’s still there as they lease the shop out now. There is not much if any weed in Vermuyden that’s always an advantage. Both pop ups and bottom baits work well. Fish to reed line always produces.👍
Thanks
I’ve just purchased this boat and just like to ask you know where the battery is have you got a little circuit board on show in there? Also thoughts on WiFi booster? I’m thinking about getting it but don’t know if it will work as the nd 2 boat with build in deeper has a antenna built in
Hi mate, I can’t answer your WiFi booster question as I don’t know. As for the little circuit board you mentioned yes. This is your memory card and where software updates are downloaded to. Be careful as whilst putting the battery back in I once knocked this out. It was easy to put the card back in but just be wary of it buddy.👍👍
@@TheCambridgeCarper cheers mate appreciate that was thinking to myself that doesn’t look like it should be there and could of put in a better place but I no now and have to take extra care 👍
Great review. I suppose better to have a fan to keep it cool than overheat and break. ATB
True mate. Just a bit noisy but you can live with it.👍
Great haul of fish there 👍🏼👍🏼
Cheers Chris.👍
Yes! man great stuff!
Nice one guys 🎣👍🏻
Cheers mate.👍
Cracking looking fish lads 👍👍
Cheers mate.👍
Ridgemonkey only lasted 3 months then wouldn't hold charge
Great video, just a shame it started off with that anglers actually going for a break and leaving that hook in that gooses beak. It’s anglers like that that give bad press to to those wildlife lovers that see anglers as a threat to nature and seek to ban anglers off lake and fishing in general. Wouldnt mind, the bloke was floater fishing, how the hell didn’t he see the goose coming for his hook bait. Hope the angler got banned. Sorry about the moan, other than that, quality vlog, look forward to watching a few more.
Yes mate. Wasn’t pleasant to see really. That’s the only problem with that lake you get quite a few noddies. Don’t fish it as much these days. Tend to go to other lakes on the complex.Thanks for the like bud.👍
Nice one mate. Congratulations 👍🏼👍🏼
Cheers Chris.👍😁
