Sorry for the slight delay this month, the truth is me and mark went fishing but August's podcast is now live. This month we have Finn Lewis on as our guest, aka the Wild Man. Finn is an man whos so connected to nature, a real outdoors chap who's also an extremely passionate angler. Me and Mark also have our usual ramblings over a cuppa or two. Thanks for the support as always and lovely reviews, they never fail to put smiles on our faces, we read them all.

This month we've got a great guest, none other than Dave Little or Mr Ouse as I like to call him due to his love affair with this majestic river and it's elusive carp. We delve into the history of river stockings and the challenges anglers are faced with when trying to hold a river carp, many have failed but Dave's album is busting with some incredible river monsters. Me and Mark also chew the fat as normal and cover carp retirement, particles, photo bombing and all the usual ramblings along the way. Enjoy

This month Mark delves into a rig that breaks the norm. He explains why he's planning on using his Sub Slider Egg Rig and his thoughts behind it! We also have the pleasure of Jensen Mannings, a local angler who's caught plenty of big carp but like many of us these days has to juggle low stocked pits and the demands of the chase with kids, a full time job and all the other life demands. The struggle is real but the drive to succeed never goes away!

This month we catch up with Russ Widgington, a old skool angler who's been around the scene for longer than I've been alive! Russ isn't a household name but those in the know are fully aware of his results over the years. His album is serioulsy impressive and what's more he still prints his pictures, rather than keeping them as digital images. Me and Mark also chew the fat and discuss having everything handed to you on a plate when it comes to catchng a carp. It's a BIG one, enjoy.

We're thrilled to announce that Simon Bater has your ear this month, a man with an incredible CV of big carp. These include Two Tone at a British record weight, along with carp like the famous Black Mirror, The Chertsey fish and the Slippery Seal to name just a few. Simon isn't a household name, in fact he's a very modest chap who prefers to shy away from social media but believe me when I say he's been around the block. Simon lives and breathes the great outdoors and catches loads of incredible carp, just doing it on his own terms and usually on the quiet!

As promised we've managed to record a Christmas special Podcast and release it a little earlier than normal to help with any long drives over the festive period. This month we have the extremely passionate Sam Toro on as our special guest. The man along with Gaz Fareham behind the excellent, new book The Northern Chapters. We also discuss hangovers post 40 and throw in a few new features to keep things fresh. Merry Christmas, Enjoy!

This month Mark manages a rare night and even catches a new personal best. Mike rediscovers the beauty of bobbing a float down a river and our special guest is none other than the man known for his hat and carp catching abilities, Mr Ian Poole. Ian might be out of the mainstream media these days but boy this chap has a serious album of big carp and so many stories to tell. Enjoy.

This month we delve in the areas of Nutrition, Attraction and Digestibility and discuss how attractive these things are to carp and why. We also discuss a month of plenty in terms of carp captures for both of us, it's been a wonderful month, the carp gods have certainly looked after us. Lastly we couldn't end this months podcast without touching on the topic of the month, so say suspicious substances that force carp to feed.....
