Hi All
Another great show yesterday. :)
The footage of all them big Rudd feeding together was great to see.
A lovely Crucian Carp too :) made my 2lbs 14oz PB look small but still a good fish to me held the local club record for a few year's with that one only beat last season with a 3lbs 1oz fish.
In the program's so far i have seen them fishing two lake's no more than a mile and a half from my house.
Have you seen anywhere near you yet. :?: :?: :?:

Top Quality TV, makes sunday mornings worth getting up for (at least now I've realised I can watch it on C4+1 at 8am)
I got given the book about the series, last year, and I must say it is stunning. Certainly in my top 10 angling reads, it gives all the details on venues, discussions, tactics used etc etc with top class stills as you would expect from somebody with Hugh's expertise.
Come on C4 lets see the show on a Sunday evening!!

The best show so far for us River Anglers.
Barbel in the floods Grayling in the cold and two Stunning fish by Terry Lampard a 7lb + Chub and a 3lb + Roach Magic. :)
If you missed it i am sure it will be on 4 on demand on the net later in the Week.

Have to say though that the way they have placed the ad breaks in the show are starting to get frustrating.
Just stops mid flow to show 30 seconds of adverts and then comes back. Did it while someone was talking today.
Love the underwater footage though, I read that the hardest thing for Martin Bowler was having to fish most of the time in swims with water clear enough for Hugh to film underwater... not ideal, no night fishing in most cases either.
