A marshall at a bcac match showed me a video of him doing this about 5 years ago so he's obvs been doing it for a long time.

Not my cuppa but i think he's quite good (Mozza not Leon )

Can only see this going one way after openly Dissing both Nashys and Trakkers products. Going to be a re run of the West coast East coast American rap scene Feud from the early 90's..

You mean B8 mile stylee - theyll have dance offs on groundsheets as well.

TBF, about as good as some Jungle MC's in the 90's that were making a living out of it

I've always found him annoying. Can't really say why. Just not my cup of tea. This has not changed my opinion.

I've heard there are special creams you can apply to help with that mate.

Or trying to name the England 1966 world Cup team (not out loud though - nobody wants to hear 'Bobby Charlton ' at the big moment.. )

Lurchy... 15 seconds? You might need a bit more help....

Back on topic, I thought it was funny. Like when cricket players do that ice skating show. Was that the intention?

Edit - how many raps ?

Cut tge feed mid intro from Leon, usually find him funny talking about biscuits and having slow burner sessions but honestly I've cringed less at human remains.

If you know the old show it's a parody of then it's mildly amusing but a few points.

shabba goes fishing all the time he loves it , he was fishing thorpe park last week,
does it to get away from carnage of the rave scene no doubt,
probably more so because skibbas passing , (rip), ..
iv been going raving since the 90s allot of dnb events and never merged the 2 together like blasting out dnb and spray paining my bivvy etc and necking a few Es , its nice to get away from all that and enjoy the peice of the outdoors
o
wouldn't suprise me if said companies are doing these kind of fire in the booth things to get said stars on board with them , lets hope they leave them be to enjoy there fishing

The only reason I have any clue about this is due to my kids who are grime fans . . .

The fire in the frontier version is actually a good piss take of Charlie Sloth - who makes me laugh anyway as he's everything dats wrong wiv todays yoof innit . . . saying that I do like a bit of 'propa' oldskool MC ing and this guy is the master . . .

I read that on FB as well. Something of nothing to be honest, Mark said he thinks it puts anglers in a bad light and is a bit embarrassing, Leon didn't like that and called him out on it. Not seen if there has been anything else from that

What he actually posted was (and this is word for word including grammatical and spelling errors):

"Publicity at any price mate. Fat, middle aged carp anglers aren't rappers or hip. We go fishing and that's what the media should be not acting like an overgrown school kid off his nut on the latest sherbet."

This guy is in a high profile role at Shimano, and whatever you might think about the content of the video, it is completely wrong to post something like that, and he should know better. I think Leon Bartropp does a good job of explaining why in his video response.

Carp fishing is getting pathetic because everyone has an opinion on everything, everyone takes everything way too seriously and social media gives everyone the ability to let the contents of their head spill out into the public domain all too easily. If you don't like something, just move on and put your energy into something you do like. It's evident in this thread, in the bait threads, in the OMC threads, in pretty much every section of the forum; there's a vindictive streak running through so many of our fellow anglers and it's this that brings our hobby into disrepute. If everyone were a bit more tolerant and accepting of one another then you would see an incredible transformation; I'm not going to hold my breath though.

Personally think he's sounding a bit like an old fart . . .two carp anglers taking the p*ss out of today's yoof and having a laugh at the same time - I'm sure both Leon and Muzza don't believe they're in any way hip for an instant however they are probably subconsciously trying to appeal to the youth market and at the same time amuse those that are aware of such twaddle (I'm 51 and obvs down with the kids) . . .harmless bit of fun - does it affect anyone's fishing - no - so leave it and move on . . .

That isn't actually what he had a problem with was it, he said bullying isn't right in any form and should of called him fat. Basically said good thing he is alright and not someone who has mental health issue else that would effect him differently

It all went wrong when the gob ***** entered fishing and realised they could get 5 minutes of fame and it conditioned a generation or two! Couple this with a falsified image that carping is cool to sell mass produced “must have” ***** and everybody trying to cash in on the pastime. The rest as they say is history. What a ****ing mess

Glad I can still find some peace and quite

Exactly this. Avoid big fish day tickets and ditch social media and carp fishing isn't much different than 20 years ago if you find the right lake.

The number of threads on here that complain about something they have seen on Facebook or YouTube is silly when it's so easy not to see these things.
