FISHING FOR BEGINNERS - FLY, COARSE & CARP FISHING
DISC 1 - Fly Fishing
What better way to get to grips with the basics of fly fishing and to broaden your approach, than to learn from a programme which features former England International team member, coach and manager Simon Gawesworth and the one time European Fly Fishing Champion Iain Barr. Lets start our programme by joining Simon at Blakewell Fisheries in Devon where hell be showing us a variety of fly fishing equipment and how best to assemble it. Simon will then move on to expertly demonstrate presentation and how to catch rainbow trout on nymphs and ultimately the dry fly. Therell even be a fleeting glimpse of a nice brown trout which embarrassingly for Simon evades final capture! Well then go to Lenches Lake in Evesham where the inimitable Iain Barr will show us the type of tactics that made him European Champion. Ian will be fishing with a team of three nymphs, all the time analysing for us his style of fishing, the methods hes using and the reasoning behind his actions. Compare the approach to the wonderful sport of fly fishing by two very different characters, both experts in the field but who utilise totally contrasting styles. Learn from their teaching and hopefully it will broaden your knowledge and improve your skills in the ever fascinating world of fly fishing.
DISC 2 - Course Fishing
Whether it be pole fishing, or float fishing with rod and line thats your particular bag, theyre both featured here and who better to demonstrate the different techniques, than three of the best anglers in the country. Four times World Coarse Fishing Champion, Bob Nudd MBE, England International and fishing columnist, Will Raison and finally our old mate and big fish expert; Des Taylor. Our programme starts with Bob Nudd and a pole fishing session for big fish at Pisces Fishery on the Cambridge/Norfolk border. Bob expertly demonstrates the methods, baits and tactics used to produce the best results from a small still water. There are loads of tips and advice here from a man whose knowledge and experience is second to none. Then on to Gold Valley Lakes where we join Will Raison; Will shows us his tactics with the pole, which have helped make him one of the countrys top competition anglers. Leaving Will to bag up, we travel south to Romsey in Hampshire where we meet up with that ever popular character and big fish expert Des Taylor. Des is fishing Broadlands Lake, which in his words, is stuffed with fish. Watch Des with rod and line successfully capture a substantial bag of quality Roach, using what to some might be considered old fashion match tactics. No matter whether youre a complete novice, an occasional angler or someone who just wants to improve their angling skills theres something here for everyone.
DISC 3 - Carp Fishing
So you want to learn how to catch carp, well who would know more about that subject than the journalist, author and broadcaster Julian Cundiff? Julian has specialised in the capture of carp, written countless articles and broadcast several programmes about the skills that hes developed and the methods hes used to catch fish throughout the years. However, this programme is not sixty minutes of various fishermen hauling in carp after carp after carp; rather its an in-depth look at how to improve your skills as an angler for Britains favourite fish. During the programme Julian will demonstrate in great detail, how to make your own boilies. Hell show you a couple of his favourite mixes, with tips and hints to make what appears to be a complicated process very simple. Julian will show you how to set up your end tackle, how to make hair rigs; he explains the importance of presentation and throughout the programme, will offer you endless amounts of priceless tips and advice. Oh, and of course you will see Julian putting all that advice into practice, as he catches some very nice common carp. We hope that you enjoy this programme and that you will be able to use the knowledge passed on by Julian to help make you become a better angler.
