24 Hour Rod Race
24 Hour Rod Race is a race against the clock as one of Europe’s most famous fishermen, Matt Hayes, attempts to achieve a tough challenge set to him by his fishing pal and famous angling writer Richard Lee.
Top to Bottom
There’s no easing into things here – Matt’s carp fishing skills are put to the test at a venue he’s never been to before. Can he start the series with a win?
Magnificent Seven
From last episode’s one-species special, this time it’s a multi-species challenge on a fishery complex including gravel pits and a stretch of river.
Reservoir Predators
Matt’s on the way to a reservoir that’s famous for holding big predatory fish, but to win this one is going to need the fish of a lifetime, and there’s only 24 hours in which to get it.
Pound For Pound
The challenges aren’t getting easier, even though the target species seem to be getting smaller…
River Windrush
This time Matt heads to an old stomping ground – to a hotel with private fishing on the River Windrush – hunting specimen chub. Despite former glories, recent years have seen various issues impact the fishing, so he’ll have his work cut out.
The 'Gray' Lady
Matt heads to the famous chalkstreams of Hampshire with Grayling in his sights. But this won’t just be an idyllic fly fishing experience… especially with that hat.
