Off course he is not unchallengeable, yes what you post is correct , in my opinion there are many anglers around the globe that are better then him , they just do not have the big name and probably don't want it.

All those pics back in the day - never did any of those carp any harm 🤷🏻‍♀️

It’s great that carp care has come on leaps and bounds, but we used to put fish down on a bit of grass (if they were lucky!) and they did ok. Carp are a very hardy species…..

You are quite right. I have seen others copy this and cringe.
Unless it's an exceptionally deep and soft mat, and the carp isn't excessively gutty, then it really shouldn't be done.
There is no need for it, and only serves the purpose of adding some "drama" to his films!

No one else share the same concerns that I do regarding pressure on internal organs when he balances that fish on its belly on the mat? Or do people feel Mr Hearn is unchallengeable?

I like the fact he doesn’t release films every other week,one thing I think sets him apart is he seems to be tuned in to all things nature and his surroundings.
I wouldn’t mind his photo album

I'm pleased to hear that he still uses sacks and mats.
Some people would make you believe that if you don't use retaining slings and cradles that you are irresponsible.

Sacks are better for the fish if used correctly. Fish can find their own level, rather than bobbing around on the surface.

thats what separates Terry from the rest of us he always got his target fish and rest of well ..we carried on dreaming about catching them

Exactly that, time is the biggest asset in carp fishing but you still have to catch them, and he does consistently, the majority do not and that is the difference

Fantastic film but one that again leaves you scratching your head wondering how he does it

Found a swim that looked good on Google maps, plotted up in that swim, Swan off to take some photos of butterflies and finches, flick the clipped up rods out just before dark, somehow present bottom baits amongst drifting bits of weed, catch a few in the morning. Simple as that

TH & ESP are probably the most watchable film's out the ,I just wish they'd go back to there Xmas releases dates when it's cold and over the Xmas period they always inspired me for the new year, suppose I could save them but there too good not to watch straight away........

Plus massive 👍 to ESP no advert interruptions

Another brilliant video from Terry
met him quite a few times many years ago when he was chasing carp in oxon
and he always had time for a quick chat on his laps around the lake
it was never that hard to find them when it was quiet but catching them was a different ball game all together and thats what separates Terry from the rest of us he always got his target fish and rest of well ..we carried on dreaming about catching them

I watched it last night in the bath. First one I've watched for a good few years. Great watch. He looks well.

As for people talking about him going a bit grey... You would go grey too, if you were anywhere near nicholas the Pest for more than five minutes. 🙃

I watched Tels vid, You Tube popped up a Thimking Anglers Gaz Farem vid as a next up.
Chalk and cheese, Gaz came across as desperate, must catch and a poorer story teller, washed out not a par on Tel.

No, he wouldn’t blow the lid off a water which would suffer from pressure. He has more respect than that. Really good video, that first mirror is fantastic.

Well done ESP. One of the best up there with the Tunnel and old gold films in my opinion.

Tackle firms be aware... expect an upsurge in sales of old school oval brollies with sides.

Maybe that will now be the carpy look of next spring, fleece waistcoat (fleece must be on the outside) and brimmer hat, far better than the chunky knit, not good when wet. Could be a bit of tweed, tea ceremony and cake in greaseproof paper soon, AKA the Chris Yates look. Got to be an aging thing

Still, has to be one of the most successful carp anglers in this country over the last 3 or 4 decades, target fish, after target fish, after target fish, incredible

ESP make some cracking little films though too, really captures what’s special about this magnificent pastime for me, and not just carp too

Still has that late 80s / early 90s raver look to me though
Why can't I shake the thought of 1 of the other syndicate members looking over to Tels swim at night seeing what appears to be a aircraft handler on acid....with his glowsticks
I think he's morphing into gentry, looked quite dapper if you asked me, what chance do the rest of us stand when he can just charm the fish out.

I particularly liked the bit at the end where he said that all the syndicate members had been catching and were happy and that's what you want.

I felt that whilst watching this, it was great but just kept thinking if I wasn't watching it I'd be enjoying the next book more. A self imposed 10 year Terry Hearn media ban will be difficult though.

Magnificent that

Those mirrors are absolutely stunning!

Funny how time flies because I used to read this young man’s stuff in the Angling times which I found quite captivating at the time, and I have since followed his angling and captures throughout my life. Now he is grey all of a sudden lol and still catching stunning carp after carp after carp. Incredible really, what an angler, one of the best, real deal, no flash in the pan here

Just makes me want to go fishing

Terry Hearn vids for E.S.P, the Sticky Baits 'reflections' series, and the Thinking Anglers 'Insights' series are probably the best ones available.

You literally have months of decent viewing to look forward to, whereas these days I'm scratching around for decent content!

Apart from the floater one which isn't the best my fave has to be on his boat/Thames.

Anyone recommend a good starting point for stuff done by Mr. Hearn?
