The Spodcast: A Carp Angling Podcast

A bit of a different episode this week with Matt from Wingham Fisheries. A great insight into what it takes to run a prolific big fish water in the South East.   Matt has some exciting plans for the future of the lakes too!

What an episode this one is! If ever there was an episode to light your fire and get you wanting to get the rods out. THIS IS IT! As Storm Isha hits us, I'm preparing for my fist session on the bank in over two years, raring to go after listening to Carl's amazing capture of UK 60lb'er!

A Carpy Connection's Mark Hunter is today's guest.  Videography, terminal tackle and PBs are on the menu today. Enjoy!

Some great tips on what to do to improve your fishery, and fishing in the winter heading in to spring.

We're back! Archie Shellard is this week's guest.    This guy can catch them! We cover his early days on Orchid and discuss his more recent time on Bluebell. Look out for future episodes as we'll be doing an 'in-session' film with Archie on the bank.

A whole month has passed since my last 'weekly' episode! We're back (again!) Dan in Amsterdan is today's guest. Dan Mawdesley (Instagram @test_curve)AmsterDan has been fishing for four decades across Britain & Europe.  Based in Holland for almost 30 years, he lives on a dike, rides a bike and has caught Dutch river carp to over 42lb, pike to 31lb and perch over 4lb. In his day job he owns a creative agency (www.vannorth.com) and has won awards for campaigns for brands like Mitsubishi Motors & Nikon. Combining work with his hobby, Dan also launched Dave Lane’s own carp brand and created campaigns for Shakespeare, Penn and JRC.

Only joking, just me waffling in with a bit of a 'day in the life of' episode!

Simon is this week's guest, full time videographer and decent angler! Apologies for the bad audio on my side, Zoom issues!

Myles joins us to follow up with his successful Bradley's campaign and much more!

A sunny evening on a deep pit with some big old carp and a brace of 40s!

An interesting insight in to Lukas' angling and some very memorable captures!

A quick catch up and thank you to all our listeners.

Episode 100!! A bumper episode this week with Dave Gawthorn. Some incredible tales of the most iconic carp waters from past and present. If you're into photography too, there's some great knowledge bombs to take away.

Myles talks us through some amazing previous captures whilst doing a work overnighter on Bradley's lake on the Cotswold Water Park

A great chat with Phil Lowry as he recalls his time on the infamous Conningbrook.

We catch up with Ben Pinniger on a hot summer's day to discuss the potential risk of oxygen crashes on still waters with impending hot weather followed by risks of thunderstorms. These conditions spell disaster for fisheries and Ben explains why, one to listen to if you were thinking of getting the rods out this weekend!

Andy Ellis & Ben Pinniger, we record after a few beers, is that wise?

We catch up with Dave and chat about all things river carp!

We delve into Simon's previous roles and discuss live both behind and in front of the lens.

A great chat with Jason, reliving some of his previous captures from some tricky waters. Jason's methodical approach to finding fish, no matter how long it takes is key to his recent success.
