- Carp angler Ian Macmillan is a highly respected and has been prominent in the modern Carp fishing scene for many years. He is affectionately known a “tong” by his piers in the industry.
In this podcast Ian talks about his long career in the carp fishing industry including some of the best and worst decisions he has made along the way. He opens up about his life after being diagnosed with cancer, his very recent prognosis and his ongoing battle. PLUS loads of carp fishing tales to top it off.
He has enjoyed considerable success on some of the country’s best known Carp waters, including Wellington Country park and the Essex Manor.
Iain works in the angling trade, and has over the years, worked with some of the world’s leading fishing companies.
Over the years he has been a regular contributor to various Angling publications, as well as appearing on a number of different T.V programmes and films, including our original Thinking Tackle series.
After many years, Iain remains a passionate Carp Angler, who nowadays, likes spending more of his time fishing on the continent, seeking fresh challenges.

Hi, I am Jan Porters youngest Brother and I would like to pass on to Iain all my thoughts and best wishes. Also to thank him for his moving comments about Jan when he is going through such trauma in his own life.
Jan porter one of the greatest to ever do it 🙏
Much respect to you and your family Dave, be safe.
Jan Porter was the rock star of fishing. A great inspiration to me and my thoughts are with you.
Martyn, so very kind. Thank you.
@Steve Hurst - thank you Steve. Very kind words.
I’m so sorry to read the Iain lost his battle too. My sympathies and deepest condolences go out to his family and all of you, his friends. ❤️
Just watched this again after hearing the bad new of Ian passing I was crying the first and even more the second. Rip 🙏
How can you not be inspired by the Tong! Brilliant podcast! Love ya mate ❤️
One of the hardest opening 30 minutes to listen to but something so endearing. A legend is something which is often overused but Ian sir you are a true legend of this industry and we're all rooting for you fella!
Watching this podcast again, reminiscing, rip Mr tong 💙
What an amazing pod cast, wish I was eloquent enough to put into words what I felt during it. Thanks so much Iain sincerely hope things work out for you and Cath, Simon you should be congratulated too for your handling of this interview which I'm sure not many people would have done so well.
Tong, you are so brave to come on and do this. Massive massive respect to you! Yours and chilly's situation puts things in perspective. Stay strong 💪💪
From the Irish carping community we wish you all the best Iain.
Tears of sadness to tears of laughter. The best podcast by far - what a legend
This podcast brought out all my emotions when I first heard it last year, because first of all it was the first time I'd heard about Jan's sad passing (as I'd been away from the scene for 6 years). Then hearing Ian's ongoing battle really opened up the floodgates. Although I'd seen him at shows I never had the ba** to say hi. He always seemed such an lovely, endearing fella. Both were legends in my eyes and I learnt such a lot from their videos. RIP guys and my deepest sympathys go out to both Ian and Jan's families.
What a man to take on board when you think you have had a bad day! God bless you Ian!
Credit to Simon for conducting the interview so well and very best wishes to Iain after providing such an entertaining and moving podcast. 👍👍❤
Kudos to Simon. He really is a brilliant host. His humility, empathetic and thoughtful approach really get the guests to open up and result in very revealing and watchable podcasts.
Iain has now passed away, such a fantastic bloke and angler no longer with us. RIP Iain, love to your family and friends you'll be sorely missed.
Never watched this one before, but with tong passing I'm watching it now. The gift at the start was a hard watch knowing what I know now.
Only just watching this now for the first time and only 10min in and what a Gent this man is. Such a loss to the world and carping community. Rip fella. 🙏
Watched this again for about the 10th time.
You will always be missed Tong 😢
Always loved watching Iain and he is the reason I brought my Ulegras!!! My dad was diagnosed with cancer before xmas and has been a difficult time for all the family. Was emotional watching this podcast.Also been to Shelly's great times
How can anyone put a thumbs down for this. Legend and inspirational. Nice words for Jan too. Keep fighting buddy
What a rollercoaster of emotions this was! loved every minute of it! Your a true legend and an inspiration 👊🏻
Trying to think of the correct words to do this man justice, such a shame he's gone, I think we all know the worlds a little worse off without him, RIP, Ian "ting tong" Macmillan, you'll always be in our hearts, and in a way, thanks to modern tech the part of you we knew will live on.....
Iain is a true inspiration. To watch this brings me right back in line.... Moaning about things that don’t matter and here is Iain so positive. Best wishes to you and your family Iain. A brilliant pod cast with carp fishing thrown in!!!
an emotional rollercoaster of a podcast, brilliant, honest and possibly the best so far
18 minutes in and my heart breaks for you Iain. I’ve watched you since I got into Carp fishing. I walked Wellie years ago hoping to bump into you and shake your hand and have chat. Keep strong, there are those around you, both near and far, who feel about you the way you do about Jan. A true gent.
My thoughts are with Ian's family and friends at this sad time. We lost our 21 year old son to none burketts lynfomar in January this year, I understand the pain and hurt you are going through. They live on in the legacy they leave behind. 💚💚💚💚
Brilliant, not one dull moment in over 3 hours.. Love you Ting Tong❤️.

I just want to wish tong all the best I have kept up with all you guys thro all what your doin now with masterclass, dna, monster carp, I can't get enough keep up the good work lads and I wish you all the best especially tong with what he going thro right now.

RIP Iain... cant believe he went from this podcast to passing away in a year.... 😪
Amazing pod cast ! Roll a coaster of emotions watching this.

Possibly the most candid podcast I'll ever hear. Ian could be a motivational speaker, he speaks from the heart. I think I'll remember this for a long, long time. Thank you sir and all the very best
Love ya Tong, your present was amazing, this was the first podcast I was really glued to. Stay strong 💚
An emotional rollercoater at times awesome guest his stories are so relatable at times to my own past the world is a better place with tong in it cheers guys
I remember meeting Iain a few times in various shops and he's always been very helpful and a good laugh.I remember in Pickerings of Burslem when he left Trakker and went to Nash,the manager Andy was giving Iain some stick.The banter was brilliant and Iain took it all and gave as good as he got 👍
I have Never commented on any program until now
This is one of the best pieces of work i have Ever viewed. Completely open and honest . Very few people these days give so much of themselves. Ian all the very best for the future. Rob
I’m a match angler but love listening to these podcasts and this is by far the best. 3 hours long I could listen to Iain’s stories for 3 days! Truly inspirational sir
All the very best for the future 🎣💪
By far the best podcast from korda so far imo!! Highs and lows on an emotional roller-coaster from start to finish. Iain keep fighting the fight and stay strong!! Need more open access too. Love you and mozza together!! 🎣🎣🎣😂😂😂
I cried my emotions came through for a genuine nice guy I laughed with him nothing but massive respect for this man
Never thought a Carp Podcast could be emotional but bloody hell! Ive really enjoyed all of these podcasts and this was one that i had missed and only listened to it whilst at work today, i cant believe 3 hrs went so quick whilst working! Good luck to Iain for the future!
I listened to this at work today. Loved his stories. Cruel things happen to good people. Stay strong mate
Brilliant !!! such a great watch ... honest, straight talking with banter and passion all rolled in 👍👍
Gotta say this Simon, and I know we all comment on the guests never really focusing on you . You were absolutely beautiful with Lian Simon. Really touched me how you treated him . Beautiful mate .
Never met you Tong but you genuinely made me shed a tear a few times during that.
I was also cracking up at some bits - you have a real way with words.
I wish you all the best in every possible way.
From a fellow OCD tackle box hoovering freak, its good to know Im not the only one!
Great podcast again from Korda and the team. Well done and keep it up.
Watching this today on the 2nd anniversary of Ian passing, one of the greats, sorely missed,.
Had a bad day at work, was listening to this on the way home and it put everything in to perspective, my worries are nothing compared to what Ian is having to deal with. Brilliant, inspirational podcast.
Best of wishes to ting tong and his family 🤞❤️
Wow what an amazing but emotional podcast. Tong is a true legend and long may he be around. Wishing you all the luck in the future tong where ever it takes you
The best podcast by far by a long long way, and I’m only an hour in. What a humble, modest, thoroughly likeable and brave man. Has made me laugh and made me cry....can’t wait to watch the rest tomorrow. This man is a carp legend...and a lovely human being
Wow! Struggled to listen to this - what a thoroughly open and disarming man. Amazing podcast. Wishing Iain all the very best with his treatments going forward.
what an amazingly beautiful description of a life that I can totally relate to, roaring and laughing and nodding along
One of the very best pod cast. Very well put together. To fellas having a chat. He relay makes you think about where and what your doing in your life. And to love your loved ones. 💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻
Truly very moving first part . And still inspirational outlook from a real honest person. Glad to see him smiling and laughing eventually the banter flowed like normal with Ian best podcast I've watched so far massive thanks to all for sharing this one
The best one yet, superbly put together, laughed and cried and everything in between 👍

ian i met you at merrington a bit bk and we had a conversation to which you said a few things to me that you said in the pod cast your a man of your word and far from fake up most respect to you
Why not start a fundraiser for the suppository treatment I’m sure everybody will help
Always love watching Iain and he is the reason I got my shimano ultegras! On a serious note my Dad was diagnosed with cancer before xmas and it's been a difficult time for all the family and was quite emotional watching the pod cast. I used to go to Shelly's aswell great times🤪 All the best Iain xxxx
For evidence of the effectiveness of the treatment please search "Andrew Beckley patents"/"Andrew Beckley patent" or search my Facebook page for information on other cancers. I lost my father to bowel cancer in 2002, it took my grandfather before him too. I've been researching ever since as I am at a greater risk due to the family history of it.
Phenomenal podcast, truly heartbreaking but inspirational.. Simon deserves huge credit 👍
Not only has this been the best thinking tackle podcast so far I honestly think is the best podcast I've heard in general for years. My prays go out to mr tong and his family. I hope you keep fighting this and beat it. You are great on screen and want more videos for years to come
Best podcast so far. Iain you are amazing to listen to wishing you all the best.
Absolute gentleman TT the best podcast yet so genuine and respectful I'm sure all the people watching feel exactly the same a pleasure to watch catch carp over all these years you've done yourself proud much love ian nothing but respect mate
All the Korda pod casts are brilliant but this one stands out for obvious reasons. A real inspiration. Wish you all the best Iain ❤️🙏
After a call out to repair some medical equipment at the hospital where I work thought I would start to listen on my drive home. With everything going on at the moment I wasn’t prepared for the opening and was reduced to tears in the car. Very powerful and massive respect and my best wishes to Ian. As an aside used to fish against Jan back in the day on Trent opens. What a Trent master he was.
Wow, thank you for your comments on my big brother, I was very moved and at the same time very proud, thank you so much. I hope you get well soon young man. SOYCD.
Beautifully honest interview. Credit to all. Sad to hear how the relationship with Danny ended up.
Best wishes for your future health Tongy.
The 1st 30 minutes of this was heartbreaking to listen , what an extraordinary man Ian is finding the strength to battle through and still seem so positive .
This was the best podcast by a mile I find words hard to come by but you didn't tong big respect to you. And big respect to you Simon I don't think anyone else could have done better.
Safe journey tong x
Wow! I really used to enjoy Tongs content in the old tackle, tips & tactics freebies. I remember quite clearly him fishing at gigantica & firing out 18mls cell bollies in the throwing stick. The mans a testament to living life to the fullest. What a gent! Much love Tong! Xxx
The best podcast that I have ever listened too massive respect to Iain for still doing the podcast after the sad news, I have never watched anything on UA-cam with a tear in my eye this guy is so inspirational , total respect to Iain what a true legend I wish Iain & his family all the best.....good luck 👍
Possibly the best podcast yet heart felt and honest quality listen all the best tong 🎣
Sending all my love and prayers grew up watching you on t.v. Keep your head up and stay strong.
Absolutely loved it. Really hope you get better soon I know how hard it can be as I saw my grandad struggle and the affects chemotherapy can have on a person and how challenging it can be on yourself and people around you and how everyday jobs can become harder than normal but if you keep loved ones and friends around you it makes it a lot easier and takes your mind of the struggles of everyday Iife and turn them into cherish able memories which will last forever. I really do hope you get better soon
Rip ting tong you are truely one in a million type of guy and altough iv never had the chance to grace your spirt you provided me with countless hours of footage RIP big man in a place with no more pain and suffer love and thoughts with your cathy and family xx

You are a big inspiration to us all Iain. Stick with the RSO🙏
Best Podcast ever. Funny, sad and inspirational. The 10 people that gave a thumbs down, should be very ashamed and embarrassed. Would be interesting to hear their reasons why. All the best Iain.
As others have said this was a very emotional video to watch and I bet a very hard one to make. Iain you are an inspiration to a lot of people, not just anglers but others that are in your position health wise. Good luck with your future treatment. Best wishes to you & your family. Stay strong & keep positive 👍
