  • Angling companionship is a strong bond, and few are stronger than that of Martin Bowler and Chris Yates. Despite coming from different generations, the pair are the best of friends, and enjoy each other’s company more and more as the years go by.
    Join Martin and Chris, as they venture down to the stunning estate lake that inspired Chris’ iconic book, The Secret Carp. Not only is the lake still magnificent, but 30 years on from the publication of Chris’ famous book, the fish have grown considerably too.

    These films with Chris in are absolutely incredible, he is such an interesting character.
    Does anyone else feel these show films show everything that is wrong in the modern angling ? Chris is absolutely smitten with just being there, catching or not, he just loves being on the bank.
    This is truly beautiful.

      @@jameshunt5590 not all of us mate, im a barbel angler, and I see what your getting at, me just being downthe river during the different seasons is still magical. sometimes I don't get a rod in the water coz im talking about fishing with like minded anglers or I end up just walking the banks picking up litter I have blanked for a whole season disheartened a few times but still drawn to keep going time and time again because if I could catch just one in that mile of virtually unfished stretch of beautiful unspoiled river I would have found a small piece of heaven on my doorstep.

    I watched Passion for Angling back in the day, it struck me that Chris is such a wonderfully decent man. Watching Chris got me hooked on centrepins and making my own handmade fishing floats. I love his attitude, it is so calming to watch, all that tea drinking, wonderfully scaled fish and lakes and landscapes to dream of...if you read this Chris.... Hello from North Somerset ..its been a true pleasure to watch your programmes...

    Watching Chris and Martin has transformed my fishing. I don't care if I catch and I do t care about kit. My carping now is a centerpin and carp rod. My mates use 3 rods but don't catch no more/less than I do. And I've learned to just love being there regardless of catching. And I now write too after my sessions to remind me of all the little dramas I'd normally forget. Thankyou for reigniting my passion

    It is a few years ago now , but Chris used to come and dine and have the odd pint of Ale in the Beckford Arms when i used to be the owner.
    What a gentleman he is and what a beautiful lake , The area and people were and still are just wonderful.

    Carp fishing is under appreciated fishing here in the States. My pops and I LOVE it though. You have to be a decent angler to catch big carp.... I think that's why it hasn't caught on here😉 and the fight the big carp put up is incomparable
