Stavross

Ha ha, the program always used to finish with a freeze frame of him laughing trying to juggle a carp or a tench

So I’ve been for a walk round my pheasant shoot to check the fox situation and as usual with my work and other commitments I’ve left it a bit late, only managed to find one real spot that I could possibly call in to, got myself a bit of bait and will be giving it a go, failing that it’s going to have to be when they have combined, just before the birds go in, I never make life easy for myself

Ha ha, Rex hunt and bushy, quality

Sounds like you had a great night out, good luck for tonight

I completely agree with this, all I want to see is a fishing program that shows me how to enjoy it, a bit of water craft and some beautiful surrounding, one of the reasons I moved away from fishing was my mates went down the commercial fisheries route and that’s just not for me, I don’t want to catch gold fish or carp that look like they have been on steroids from a muddy hole in a field

Cracking result, definitely worth an all nighter

I’ve just remembered another one I used to watch, go fishing with jack charlton, classics

Yeah that wasn’t long ago, he was very lucky to walk away from that, I’m sure I read somewhere that they also found a castaway when they were filming around Australia

Not exactly what I was expecting but I did enjoy it, it reminded me a lot of how me and my mate did our fishing, just being there with a good friend, talking about any old sh*t maybe enjoy a beer on a summers evening, I’ll be watching the rest of them just because there’s nothing better on the box

I know what you mean about Martin bowler, Bernard cribbins made that program, I did like Jeremy wades early stuff, the one that sticks in my head is when he was fishing for arapaima in the Amazon

Martin bowler and Bernard cribbins catching the impossible was the other one I loved

I’d forgotten about that, I loved that, there was another one I used to watch with bob nudd, this lot is going to watch again, it bringing back some lovely memories sitting with my dad on a Sunday evening

Chris Yates and bob James my angling heroes

I get the impression it’s not all about the fishing and will be a bit more like how they used to do it with the likes of John Wilson, screaming reels and the other one I can’t remember the name of with Martin bowler and my absolute favourite a passion for angling

I always find darkness is needed for foxing on a cut field, they seem very aware that there surroundings have changed, I’ve found that a mouse squeak works well on a silage cut
