Evening gents, a little shameless self promotion. I have a small youtube chanel where I follow progress of a drag car im building. However ive jist done a video that included some fishing content, it covers me targeting a very large common .

Now I don't like fishing vlogs generally. I think anyone who vlogs their fishing sessions Is a bit of a self absorbed whopper. So I fully understand you not wanting to watch. However with me doing very little work on my car due to fishing, I needed some content to upload to keep the algorithm happy.

I don't plan on uploadimg much fishing content in the future, but this is a bit of a test.

Liked it - cracking fish. You should do it more. I fast forwarded the car bits.

I think its nice that people video their hobby's, I am sure the chop shop will put a smile on your face when you have finished the rebuild in a few years time, great memories, same with the fishing

I suppose ultimately it's where you post it, some will like it some will not. This is just a positive from me after seeing a few blogs, how you present yourself is everything for me. I think anybody giving it the “big I am” will not last long, something interesting that captivates people is the way forward, it's the difference between turning it off after a few minutes or looking forward to the next video for me.

All the best with it

Cheers. Yeah, I like making videos, tbh. I'm not overly fussed if people enjoy them that much. I like that 6 people from thos page have taken the time to click the link and dislike the video though. Dislikes are actually good for pushing content out.

I would never film a blog. But I do like the idea of filming an entire season, or a "campaign" and editing it down to a short 20 minute or so video. I don't like vlogs, because inevitably it's just what they ate for dinner and where they parked the van.

I like the idea of making a video that a none angler could enjoy, something that tells a bit of a story.

Building cool sh1t and carp fishing.... What's not to like!... I look forward to the next installment.

Unfortunately my hobby car days (air cooled VWs and Porsche) fell by the wayside some years ago (as did carping for a while), but it's great when it all comes together.

Well done Sam! But from here on in you will forever now be referred to as Mullet lol.

Quote... I like that 6 people from thos page have taken the time to click the link and dislike the video though. Dislikes are actually good for pushing content out.

Welcome to the internet Mullet

Those six dislikes, here's some extra facts that you may not understand yet.

All six have re watched your video numerous times. After clicking dislike too.

All six have tried to make some kind of blogging fishing type videos previously, and failed, miserably.

All six, have never caught a 49lb UK common.

That just about covers it. Trust me Mullet, you need these kind of 'haters'. You will only ever get people like that even interested, if you are doing something good. That is the way of the internet. Many people are unfortunately not living their best life. That then manifests itself into how they behave online.

**** em Mullet

Thank you for the kind words gents. I certainly won't go out of my way to create any fishing Content again. But I will probably do a bit of filming this spring, and then use the footage or not, depending on if anything interesting happens. I'm not even sure where I'll be fishing, too many options I can't narrow down

You and that mullet definately give off a 70's porn star vibe


You'd only find it in the hedgerows back in the day

Yep, totally there for the 20yr old tattooed fitties with daddy issues.

Will be thinking of everyone spending their weekends with their fat 60yr old grumpy missus 🤣
