Brilliant film and I just love the un matching wonky rods and reels. A proper angler with no bull****. I think we can excuse him the odd mention of his bait co.

To be fair to JT, I'm still only up to his 2018 films and the bait plugs are only relevant to him explaining the reasons as to why he is baiting the way he is. If you're using two types of baits to avoid crays/chat etc then I think it makes sense to mention why you're not using fishmeals.

It's not as if he's rubbing a live system wafter around his nipple whilst looking seductive for the 'gram

No big secret but you still set up a new account before you named it?

That area has loads of lakes especially to the southwest, remember being out there touring on the bike and seeing lakes everywhere.

Naming it wasn't necessary. On your first post, really? Yes, it's a well known venue on the European circuit. Man enough? It's not M is it?

M had DF completely questioning his ability and without someone to hold his hand, he would have bailed at the end of the second day.

I'm going to answer this simply.

It's Johns film - John posts here. John didn't name the venue - as it's his film, etiquette would suggest that would be the correct thing to do, not name it on a public forum such as this.

Phil, these are your first posts and you seem to have a bee in your bonnet over naming venues - would you be happy to name all the venues that John and others have been too then? John often mentions in his films that he's not going to name venues out of respect for the locals, which seems the right thing to do.

The venue itself is well known, it's on other vids, Korda, a french Fox one, loads of pics on the web. It's pretty safe, not like M or GL, but it can get very busy at times.

Keep it to myself? Doubt it, I haven't been since summer 2014, when a certain fish died, and that was the last one of the original big ones we'd not had.

He doesn't appear to be the one who has his a bee in his bonnet to me.

Tbh this is a forum talking about carp fishing, naming a lake in another country, that 99.9% of carp anglers wont even bother to venture to, didnt really need suppressing. If he wanted to keep it a real secret he wouldn't have put a video up at all....

My point would be if John didn't want the venue to be named then he should not
Post up the videos of where he fishes.

At the end of the day he had a trip to remember which he shared on media so why can't people name the venue for others to potentially fish.

Fox,Nash,Kev Ellis etc etc to my knowledge have never not named a venue
Are you sure?

This action cannot be undone.

Yes, continue
