Great footage and really enjoyed watching the piece, as i do with all of Tels videos. 
But i'm sure that area will get quite a bit busier than it already was.
Took me 15mins to find the exact location of his new moorings.

Yeah, but not as blatant as in the ESP vid imo.

Trouble is NH caught the fish he was after, and let the whole world know as he was obviously going onto pastures new.
I believe that the big linear was caught 2 or 3 times before/after Nick had it, but respect to those captors, they, like most longer term Thames anglers kept
.
Simple respect to, and amongst the regulars to keep the circus away. OK if you are on a boat you can moor up away from the madness, not so easy fishing on the bank for others.

I agree with you, nicks video and publicity must have ruined a lot of anglers fishing

I think the fish dying ruined more people's' angling.

Dave Lane - funniest stories and one most fishing guys can relate to I'm sure (even if they don't admit it)
Martin Bowler - classical style fisherman like C Yates etc.
Terry - total legend in my eyes and tells a baiting or capture story like no other. A great advocate for the sport in my eyes, and someone to aspire to for youngsters new to the sport.
Each to their own though, as long as you enjoy your time and what you do without upsetting others then good luck to ya.

While TH can tell a good story, was he not stoned and on the dole for a good stint?
Hardly a role model, unless that's what we want our kids to do of course

I'm sure this applies to many a “known” fisherman, I know of a couple of high profile ones myself from personal and mates experiences.
Nobody is perfect I will agree.

That's why no full time carp angler is really a role model to kids.
The people in the trade that have made something of themselves by working and not hot boxing a brolly, like DF, people seem to despise
Devil's advocate of course chuffy, somebody had to lol
