We obviously aren't gonna have any recent ones, but he hasn't posted any winter ones this year.
Does anyone know if he did owt?

In reply to Post #1
Last one from koi nerding Kevin ellis was a month ago but it was a cassien trip from 2001

In reply to Post #1
No mate , he did owt

In reply to Post #3
Well thats cleared that up then.

There are a few videos coming out soon that include old and new angling footage also Recent interviews with the guys from a lot of the old films.
Obviously with the current situation not a lot has been going on fishing wise but he seems to be keeping himself busy with these interview type films but includes some actual fishing footage.
If you are into bait and bait making don't miss the first one .

In reply to Post #5
Has he ****ed you off now for some more interesting actors then?

Looking forward to them

Happy days. Last year he had a Mar Peche/Labby winter ticket, I was hoping he'd also got one the winter just gone.

In reply to Post #7
Abbey last year mate

Let's hope he's been on a cookery course

In reply to Post #8
So it was squire.👍👍 Has he just been bone idle then? What about the fans ??? 🤣😂

New video up 6 o'clock tonight boys

In reply to Post #11
Cheers 🥂

In reply to Post #12
How you doing rich, not seen you since Labrynth

He's late

In reply to Post #13
Only done one other trip since then - Mar Peche, couldn't do Abbey October due to shoulder op and then couldn't do Renard due to this palaver now. Next trip Abbey in October 🙏. How are you?

In reply to Post #15
All good mate thanks, lost three trips already myself Got a few more booked that will hopefully go ahead.

In reply to Post #14
It's still uploading apparently, he shouldn't be left alone to do anything.

9 o'clock now apparently, but don't hold your breath

It's on there now.

In reply to Post #19
Watched it , interesting stuff .

Happy happy days.😃😃

Surprised how much the stunk oil has gone up

Can easily spend a couple hours at Ken's picking up an order. I wouldn't use anything else now. It just works.

In reply to Post #23
Learn more about bait in 2 hours down there than you would reading a book, that catch he mentioned from rainbow was absolutely insane, can't remember the fellas name it was him and his son if I remember rightly.

In reply to Post #24
Yeah mad fishing that mate. Only gotta look at the wall in the unit to see the amount of big fish Ken's gear does. I'll be trying some of that R1 in September if we get down to Carl's.

The R1 did look interesting shame he don't do shelf life

In reply to Post #25
Take some of Kenny's tutti Hookbaits 🤫

In reply to Post #27
.

In reply to Post #26
He has done in the past for french trips. Not sure on amounts though and think it's only a short term shelfie.

Wow Listening to Kenny Gates talk really makes you think and wonder about bait and what you use. Sounds like a fascinating, clever guy. Great video, thanks Kev.

In reply to Post #27
tutti buitys.

In reply to Post #29
ken done me a part preserved bait for France last year.just keep it out the sun and it will last for around 2 weeks..

In reply to Post #31
👍 i took the cream amino Hookbaits to croatia last year and of the 15 fish I weighed 12 came to the cream.
My mate has the TB's and is on his lake in france and the 16mm pop ups are tearing it apart fished over the marine.

In reply to Post #33
cream mixed with the spice amino is a good bait also.

How would one order bait for ireland

In reply to Post #35
Have a look on Facebook mate theres a tackle shop doing mail order.
The bait is sent frozen in polystyrene boxes so it will arrive fresh.

Very touching at the end a tribute to Philly the fax man cee fax
One of the best taken far to soon.
Ken's bait is on a different level to anything I've ever used before a very clever man who has a wealth of knowledge
An if you know. You know

In reply to Post #37
Yes that is a shame.. RIP Phil

I think theres a new one up lads

In reply to Post #39

In reply to Post #44
No mate, he sent me a link and I thought it was up let me find out.

https://youtu.be/xiHCqp8rs08

In reply to Post #45
Have you got a link for the bait one pal, I'm interested in having a watch

Kenny Gates bait one LINKY POO

In reply to Post #50
Top man Gerry. Thank you

Will have a watch later

In reply to Post #49
Good to see them al fit and well, Micky hall is nearly 70 now still going strong.
Kev has loads of that sort of footage Gerry salagou etc even Herts club water stuff.

In reply to Post #42
Well I've just got a bit of office work to do and have a quick skirt about then i'll be watching this ..

In reply to Post #52
yes will make good viewing mate Micky hall looks good still when I fished the Island lake a few years ago Micky did first half then Mick Bowman did the second half couple of really nice blokes nag Kevin to do lots more of the old stuff

Did he ever record some harrow stuff or was that
Not allowed

Just finished watching the bait one. Man with a passion which is very nice to see. Brilliant

In reply to Post #54
He's got hours of stuff that he plans to upload, best thing I've seen is an interview with Pete Regan, real mind blowing stuff considering 99% of Angler's have never heard of him.

Lots of Harrow footage mate not sure what the crack is with releasing it though

In reply to Post #53
When he says he's got office work to do it usually means winding in and poncing breakfast of somebody

In reply to Post #58
so skirts about sniffing out the nearest bacon butty for brekkie in true hunter gatherer fashion, love it..

Can't wait til late August on Island lake, praying the conditions will be mad for it

In reply to Post #59
Brilliant synopsis 👍

I fished the island lake a couple of years ago, cracking venue with some lovely fish ?

In reply to Post #59
I'm out there in November so will be interested how you get on

In reply to Post #61
PM me and ill let you know..

What happened to the Island lake threads on here anyway? Can't seem to find them..

Will do Paul thanks

Use the search function and loads come up 👍

In reply to Post #57
Funnily enough I met Pete last week, while we were chatting the subject of 'famous anglers' came up and he said to me

"I'm famous for three things, the baitboat, Hutchie stole my Mrs, and I got caught ****ing in my bivvy at Savay"

Legend

In reply to Post #64
Did you ask him for a selfie ?

When is part 2 being posted

In reply to Post #66
Not sure mate,he's fishing

Selfish git

In reply to Post #64
Well did you ?

In reply to Post #69
Sorry missed that, funnily enough I did, he wasn't having any of it

In reply to Post #63
Did try the search but not much comes up, will try again though..

OK got it, hadn't ticked foreign venues.. Found the threads again.. Cheers..

In reply to Post #70
I know he told me 😂

Did he tell you he done a podcast for Korda ?

In reply to Post #72
Of course he did, had to have Damian babysit him as well.

I only wanted the selfie to show a mate of mine who fishes on the same lake and knows him, I think it went to his head 😂

In reply to Post #73
He told me he told you to **** off and grow up

In reply to Post #74
Something like that, after he'd made me smell this bait like an excitable 14 year old 😂

In reply to Post #75
I don't actually use it myself but know all about it and who does ,if your fishing where I think you are I would use it 100%, I hear you've got a household name on there next year 🤫👀

In reply to Post #76
So I've heard, I'm actually next door at the moment and was supposed to be getting a ticket this year but I think said 'household name' probably had it instead

In reply to Post #77
Regans podcast is up on Monday, it's a must watch 👍

In reply to Post #78
half way through listening on way in and way home from work, great listen one of the best yet, huge wealth of knowledge and funny with it, hand to **** the dog to feed the cat

In reply to Post #78
It was absolutely brilliant. Pete is a genuine Legend!

It's on you tube ....... brilliant and Pete don't give a fcuk 👍

I'm glad it went down so well, he's a top bloke 👍

In reply to Post #82
Agreed. Great podcast, brilliant humour and lots of nuggets of great information. Thoroughly enjoyable.

In reply to Post #82
That was great, you even got a mention

In reply to Post #84
Plastic fan

In reply to Post #84
😉 I wished he had talked more about bait particularly particles which he doesn't use a lot but when he does he's got an interesting approach

What does Kevin Ellis do for a living?

In reply to Post #87
Office furniture salesman..

In reply to Post #88
I'm guessing its his own business based on the amount of time he spends fishing.

In reply to Post #89
👍

In reply to Post #89
Or camping as he puts it

In reply to Post #78
One of the funnest things I have listened to for ages, just love the gift for the table 😂😂

In reply to Post #92
Looking at his house and bentley id say a bit more than a salesman, his own company surely

In reply to Post #93
Hearing he is lined up for dragons den, as an investor!

There's a few new vids up for anyone who's missed them, links in the stickies section

Sumbar trip video is up there now too. 👍

In reply to Post #95
Watching the Bows and Rainbow one, entertaining as always

In reply to Post #95
Not sure about that Gary glitter track 😳

In reply to Post #98
The rock n roll instrumental, that was the glitter band

In reply to Post #99
It was the Glitter band , in fact that single broke them without any lyrics sung by Gary Glitter really . I watched them live , very good , but tarnished a bit with what's happened with Gary Glitter 🙄 . They changed their name to the G band when they went out on their own .

Just great entertaining videos probably the best carp videos on you tube along with John Timmermans .

In reply to Post #101
well said

In reply to Post #101
Not seen any for a while. Echo that though, just good enjoyable entertainment for me. A true reflection of fishing, good times with friends, bit of banter and a few fish along the way. Happy days

In reply to Post #103
Have you watched the lac renard film yet ?

In reply to Post #104
I've watched it. Trip there in April got cancelled ☹️ Going next May now🤞🏻Looks great.

In reply to Post #104
No, are you in it?

Hope you are not wearing those trunks

In reply to Post #105
I know, it was me who organised your trip rich 😉

In reply to Post #107
Thank you very much. 👍

In reply to Post #108
Kev´s a legend, so are his b0ll0cks His weener gonna make a guest appearance one of these days Thoroughly enjoy Kev´s vids

In reply to Post #104
Well, I watched your recommendation

Like Jim and Ralph said a while ago, looking good for 70 pal

Does your mate Ellis ever stop eating? breakfast, elevensers, brunch, dinner, afternoon tea, tea, supper, getting a lovely pair of tits on him

How many fish did you drop lol

Another cracking video, very nice venue, a great holiday with some brilliant memories there. Happy days

In reply to Post #110
Not quite 70 yet but I'm on the home stretch 🙄

Only time he stops eating is when he's asleep 😴

Really strange with the fish jumping out of our arms, the fish were netted, weighed and quickly back in the water, for some reason they would sit still and continued to flex and squirm until they were back in 🤔

In reply to Post #111
Made me laugh when the first one you had jumped off, just as you were lining up the water shot lol. Funny one that with the fish, some just won't stay still

Good watch as usual, you surprised me, only a handful of F bombs.

In reply to Post #112
It is always good crack which becomes even better when you catch a few, Kev fished well, we knew those fish were there and he baited enough to hold them and catch them if that makes sense

Didn't fancy trying the hammock yourself then 😂😂

In reply to Post #114
It would have took him a week to edit out all the ****, ****, *******, **** f he did

In reply to Post #113
Yeah, I could see he was on them, and he had a few

In reply to Post #114
😂 no mate

In reply to Post #117


Say one thing, looks like a cracking place for a holiday and a bit of social fishing, immaculate

What's the head of fish like?

In reply to Post #118
The place did look great. Had a quick Google and can't find much about the place

In reply to Post #111
We had the same problem mate, once those fish are back in the water they want gone. Good rule though, can see why he does it.

In reply to Post #120
I was wondering if it was something to do with the heat Jame

In reply to Post #118
Although there all down in weight there's a good head of big fish, at the right time of year I would think 50x40s and 30x50s up to 67lb

In reply to Post #121
Yeah maybe mate. I pretty much had every fish I tried to get a pic with slap me in the chops and **** off back into the water

In reply to Post #122


Potential for some proper holiday memories there pal

In reply to Post #124
I'm back there Saturday

In reply to Post #125
Brilliant

Enjoy your trip

Just watched Kev's latest and WOW fishing trip of a lifetime ....

In reply to Post #127
Just watched it too great film , it made me laugh at the end in the credits "a ball free production" I think it said 😂😂

Something to watch later tonight then

In reply to Post #128
Just watched this and was an amazing trip topped off by that common. And the text at the end had me chuckling, it did quote 'a balls free production'. Hope he can get out next year and continue to make the vids as are always entertaining, even when he doesn't catch as he did here

In reply to Post #128
Kev´s got the biggest b@llocks i know, for a man of his stature
What a session ... thought he´d break down in tears after some of those awesome captures
I´ll take Kev any day of the week, instead of any celeb carp slash influencer/guru/media whore/idol, on the circuit

In reply to Post #131
New video up on Youtube - The Zoo October 2020.

We play a drinking game with these now having watched loads over the years and really enjoyed them.

It is what it is

In reply to Post #131
Forgive me for asking, how do you prove the size of your ballocks by going carp fishing. Its got to be on a par with knitting and baking in the macho stakes. Maybe & £#@@/) and & & ££"#@@ with a few *£&&#@"** does the job.

In reply to Post #134
I think it's more down to the fact he always has them hanging out in trophy shots lol rather than metaphorically speaking 😂😂

In reply to Post #134
Act all hard and threaten to headbutt people, a la Greg Ellis.

In reply to Post #136

Ah I see. Not big ballocks, just a load of ballocks. Thanks, much clearer now.

In reply to Post #132
Catch up with the boys..

In reply to Post #138
Yeah has his balls hanging out in his videos when holding up fish lol

Seems like some new (old) vids have been posted.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MJHBpn7ozjo

In reply to Post #141
Watched his latest earlier. The pva bag system brought back some memories..

In reply to Post #142
kevs vids are great

Have really enjoyed his recent uploads of his early years vids.
The Colne Valley truly is gods country!

In reply to Post #132
"All to play for" = end of the week approaching and getting itchy for a bite..

When he talks to foreign anglers in a German Spanglish accent has me in tears 🤣

In reply to Post #146
I always thought it was Dutch

In reply to Post #146
When he eats its not the best

In reply to Post #148


All sauce and egg around his mouth and face area

In reply to Post #148
He eats like an animal , proper disgusting, first time I saw one of his vids I thought it was a joke but nope he eats like a pig

An instapedia/googlereferencebook of anything going on in the background whether it be, wildlife, birdlife, aeroplanes, anything.🤣😂

In reply to Post #151
Birds wing span estimated at 6 ft across

In reply to Post #147
His conversations with Arg are hilarious

In reply to Post #153
That's when he goes full Dutch

Time for a regroup...I literally say this all the time now,without even thinking!!

In reply to Post #155
Kev says it is what it is lots, I do now ffs

In reply to Post #155
Can't beat a regroup and skirt around

Hi,

Does anyone know if Kevin is ok? Have not seen a video in a while.

In reply to Post #158
He's active on FB so I would assume he is OK.

In reply to Post #158
He normally fish's Rainbow lakes in France a couple of times a year. But what with the Forest fires in that neck of the woods over the summer it's been closed. Probably the reason for the lack of Vids.

In reply to Post #158
Kevin is fine lads, extremely busy at work.

In reply to Post #161
I thought he might of filmed that trip with Regan to Carls place. Or did he and he had to edit so much out there weren't much left for a film

That is good to hear that he is fine. Thank you for letting me know.

In reply to Post #162
He has been away and I know he has lots of footage but as I said he is double busy at work at the minute

In reply to Post #162
Anything with Pete in it is worth watching.
he's quite a character, in addition to being a top angler.
I lost contact with him many years ago, didn't fall out, just my life went down a different path back then, I understand he fishes for big pike these days, no doubt with equal success, is he likely to visit here I wonder?
would be good to speak again, I doubt he would recognise me now.
but would remember helping me I expect.
I did meet someone who spoke to him on a regular basis and was going to pass details, but then they left rather suddenly for sierra leone.
I haven't heard anything lately.

In reply to Post #165
Was on Pete's rota at Savay...What a character! His nickname was Tugboat Pete, rather derogatory in my opinion as he was responsible for taking an oil rig standby vessel to sea probably worth north of £100 million!

In reply to Post #166
I believe Pete has referred to his "tugging" at Savay before.

Pete still fishes every week as long as he can get there and is still catching lots of big fish

In reply to Post #167
There's that as well...

In reply to Post #168
That's good news, I hope one day I'll bump into him on a bank somewhere.

In reply to Post #170
Careful what you wish for

In reply to Post #171
Pete's good people, its all good.

In reply to Post #158
He's literally just uploaded a video

In reply to Post #173
I put it on the TV. Was brilliant

In reply to Post #175
Tribute to Kev the lead was quality

In reply to Post #172
At 36 mins 40 secs Pete's shorts fall down just as the camera cuts . Surprised Kev didn't make anything of that!

From 2020:

"Peter Regan, 69, of Lowestoft, appeared at Great Yarmouth Magistrates Court on November 20 charged with theft of fishing rights and a public order offence after he was found fishing on Horsey Mere without permission from the Horsey Estate.

He had initially pleaded not guilty to the offences at an earlier hearing, but admitted during the trial he used "foul and abusive language" towards the officers who stopped him. "

Doesn't sound like something he would do

He tried the Magna Carta/Tidal River defence but failed

In reply to Post #178
Pete Regan and Kenny Gates bait videos are really interesting

I saw on the Old Skool Carp Society FB page that Kev has done another video with Pete, this time out fishing. That should be a good one.

"Peter Regan, 69, of Lowestoft, appeared at Great Yarmouth Magistrates Court on November 20 charged with theft of fishing rights and a public order offence after he was found fishing on Horsey Mere without permission from the Horsey Estate.

I know a few lad who fish this, I'm sure if Peter would have left without causing drama there would have been no court appearance, but that's not Pete

In reply to Post #180
Pure curiosity but does anyone know the 'Harrow' lake that Kevin used to fish in 90s videos? Looks almost like a public park in places.

Is/was it a syndicate. Is it still around? Or is it hush hush?

In reply to Post #181
Colne valley water and forget it

In reply to Post #182
Thanks to the wonders of google earth I worked it out

I'm amazed they didn't have a 'no radios' rule mind you.....

In reply to Post #183
Wasn't really hush hush as written about in every book set in the colne!

In reply to Post #183
Arrow.. always had a radius rule.. its just that ingenious anglers in the 80's seemed to find away around it. I think the ticket back then was something like 10 quid

In reply to Post #183
Soz Dp..

In reply to Post #185
Found an old post in another forum from a guy who used to be a club member (when the ticket gave you access to the lake and river). He gave up his ticket for a few years and when he went to re-join the club the lake and river tickets had been split and he couldn't get back on the lake........

"You don't know what you've got 'till it's gone"

In reply to Post #187
I always took it that the Cons and Fisheries were the real hush hush Colne Valley lakes

In reply to Post #185
The committee obviously never checked addresses - people from all over the country fished it. Must've been a lot of second homes......
