Hi there, sorry to hear you didn't like CarpFix, can I ask what you didn't like about it so we can look to improve? We try and cater for all anglers so if you have something you feel you could gain from we'd be more than happy to film it. Regards, Scott. (CarpFix co-founder).

I'm not sure what each one charges? But your probably looking at £60 plus a month if you was to subscribe to that little lot.

The bubbles got to burst sometime, like it did with the mags.

The bubble burst because kids dont want to read books, they prefer to watch vids.
Bet the below will all have a constant turnover of subscribers, it'll be hard for them to keep it fresh forever, and then the new next “big thing” comes along. And id bet if most of us could a: be arsed to do all the work involved, b: could actually get enough people to subscribe, and c: had thick enough skins for all the criticism, we would.

It's a least different, plenty of opportunity for doing something different with multi species. Just depends if a big enough audience willing to pay for it in these carp dominated times.
I certainly enjoy the variety and there does seem to be lots of carp anglers who at least do some river fishing over the winter etc.

Funny how getting a sponsorship with Nash completely tanks the amount of content you put out. I understand people have to earn a few quid, or in some cases save money by having your bait and tackle provided for, however it seems a few have had Nash's tentacles smother them, so they are no longer providing anywhere near the content they once were. Seems counter intuitive for the company.

As you say, the bubble will burst. the mags did too because it was just same old same old.

There should be absolutely no reason why multiple magazines bite the dust in the biggest participation sport in the country, yet train enthusiasts have access to far more publications than we do. How can they survive but angling magazines cannot?

There's enough free content on Youtube without needing to subscribe to these channels.

If all these pay monthly subscription channels were to offer me £5 per month to watch all their content, I'm still not sure which I'd subscribe too.
Maybe Dave lanes and Cypography.

Joe Morgans Carp angle is now going subscription only ....£3.99.....

Bowlers at £7.99 a hard sell in light of the recent revelations methinks....

I can't see me ever subscribing to anything again. I re subbed to cypography for the underwater stuff, but I found that all a bit boring. And there's only so many times I can watch Jim shelly cook edis of Ealing sausages, or the lovely times man have lovely times.

Good luck to Carpangle, I hope he does well. But I never watched it when it was free, not sure why I just found it a bit depressing to watch. I occasionally think about giving it ago watching again, then see the episode is like an hour 45. Surely they would have more success breaking it down into 30 min episodes and releasing them more regularly?

Thinking about it, I can't remember a single memorable thing I've watched on a streaming service. But I could name several outstanding films that have been free on YouTube.

100%. The pastime is been raped and pillaged all for self promotion and greed, all these people care about is where the next £ comes from regardless of the impact on the pastime, milked to death
Are you sure?
