Very good show, but it seemed to pass so quickly  :sad: , overall very well done this week, and they also showed you how to do a dropper, very handy.

Yep, I enjoyed it too.  I'm especially looking forward to next week when they're on the river.

I think this is one of the best programs so far - 400% better than trout and about . I am looking forward to the rest of the series the trainees are doing well I just wish they would try different flys when they are not catching instead of perservering with the same one but I am sure they will twig it in the end.
         The program seems too short simply because it is interesting and the scenery and solitude is stunning it is a refreshing change.

Why cant it be on for an hour

Enjoying the show but still cant get my head round why they had to choose  Nick to do the show. Might of been more enjoyable if the presenter was a decent fisher and had some tricks we could learn from him.
 

Iam offshore just now so iam allowed a moan  :grin:

Hmmm!

"Always wet your hands before handling a live fish that's to be retuned" says the ghillie in one boat, quite rightly.
Ten seconds later the ghillie in the other boat unhooks a trout and hands it to the angler who has not wet his hands.
The ghillies wear self inflating life jackets in the boats, the anglers wear none. And they are fishing catch and release but, by the look of the time it takes to unhook a fish, they have not flattened the barb.
Bit of inconsistency there. Hope it gets better.

Missed the first program but managed to catch last nights one. Certainly double standards with the handling of the fish! Still it's better than trout and about!!!!

I thought it was the ghillies who weren't wearing life jackets (no specs either).
I would have thought the "stars" would have to for insurance purposes.

Still it wasn't bad

I think the programme is great fun, it's a bit like going along with these folk on their adventure. I find this far more interesting to watch than a "how to" or a "trophy location" type set up.  :cool:
