Not a carp fisherman but found this after searching for tips on using a spot/marker rod for tench fishing. I found this to be one of the most common sense videos on this subject and will look at the rest of the series. Thanks Adam 👍

It's all about energy levels, time, commitments and determination. We all know what to do. Walk the lake at night listening for fish. Set the alarm an hour before first light. It's Adams job to do this, he fishes mid week. But for the weekend angler it's impossible with busy lakes. But great tips in theory from Adam.

Could listen to adam all day his technical descriptions and technique explanations are excellent

Wish I watched this series a decade or so ago. Teach an old dog new tricks. One happy angler. Massive thank you 🎉🎉

I think to a degree the reason a lot of anglers fish the same way as Adam spoke about fishing years ago, find a visible feature then marker up is beacuse they do not always have the luxury of finding the fish first (unless willing to go home if they cant find fish in areas they can fish) simply because a lot of venues are very busy, and some anglers time is very limited. I could turn up at my club lake for 24hr, spend time walking the lake, only see fish in areas where the swims are taken so the choice is, go home or take a chance elsewhere on the lake knowing I might not go fishing again for another month

One of the few anglers I listen to, A true great in the ever changing world of Carp fishing. Lovin the content.

[Liam-qr]

Just what I needed answering the few remaining questions I had. Top bloke. Keep it up dude 👌

[snappyfish]

Excellent advice but with Carp lakes packed week in week out, we often don't get a chance.

[andywhalley]

Very good video Adam, very informative and easy to understand 👌🏻

[BaddMuzic]

Brilliant. Lots to take away and digest! Thank you...

[robholt]

all well and good but it's practically impossible in modern carp fishing to have free reign in a particular water to track the fish down and have access to them. It happened to me this weekend where the guy opposite me seemed to have the entire stock of the lake in his swim in a bay and the rest of the lake blanked. Feature finding should be the absolute bread and butter for ALL course angling! This is the problem with modern fishing media; they present scenarios which are not realistic to the average angler.

[alexavfclineham]

Great advice but not always practical when the fish aren't showing or the fishery is busy, then you've got to go on the areas where carp might be.
I'm just getting serious about feature finding in open water so a really helpful video, confirmed a couple of things I'd been wondering about

[sifishes]

Really enjoyed that. I needs to take notes 🖊️🖊️🖊️ 👍👍👍

🤣 “Like the clouds in the sky…it’ll have clear bits and chodier bits.”…I couldn’t have put that better myself. 👍🏻

[captainchillco]

Hi Adam. What are your thoughts of throwing out a deeper to get the depths, then ping out a lead to check the bottom ?

[jonnyallen]

It's good watching your vids while fishing and while your on the other side of the lake atm lol

[hansmaulwurf]

Intresting view on how to approach a venue, but what if the lake is surrounded by overhanging trees, few venues and you just can't get to the fish or their holding area? Even if they are there, that doesn't mean that they are in the mood to feed... maybe they visit a completely different Spot for that. How do you explain that?🤔😁

[johnhodges]

Very informative video a good watch thank you

[TheRadcliffeSchool]

Hi. How do you approach spodding distances? Appreciating that you would perhaps only use them in a weedy situations, but how do you adjust the wraps if you aren’t using a marker. Thanks
