  • Honda Lake | Mark Bryant & Elliott Gray | S2: Ep.2

    Episode 2

    This Session film is a beast, filled with action from big carp, right from the get-go. We were very privileged to be invited to fish a special Cotswold syndicate with Baitworks supremo, Mark Bryant, and the resulting 36 hours or so were waaaaay beyond our wildest dreams! The lake was fascinating,...

  • Willow, Linch Hill | Lloyd vs Gray | S2: Ep.3

    Scott loves challenging people to a match and Elliott had planned to spring it upon him once they got to the venue but true to form, Scott offered him out before they’d even arrived!

  • Sandhurst | Tom Dove & Elliott Gray | S2: Ep.4

    Episode 4

    Elliott joins long-time mate, Dovey, for The Session film at Sandhurst Lake and my god did it kick off!

  • Ashbury Top Lake | Simon Scott & Elliott Gray | S2: Ep.5

    Episode 5

    Simon Scott is renowned for his abundance of carpy knowledge and warming character, which makes him the perfect candidate for this kind of film!

    Episode 7

    Tom Stokes is regarded as one of the nicest guys in carp fishing and it was a pleasure to join him for our Session film.

  • Birch Grove | Steve Renyard & Elliott Gray | S2: Ep.8

    Episode 8

    Birch Grove is a venue steeped in Northern history, it’s about as intimate and beautiful as a lake can get and is home to some wonderful carp too; we couldn’t wait to get stuck in! The lake has hundreds of places for the carp to hide and catching them was never going to be easy, but with plenty o...

    In this action-packed Session film special, you'll see carp caught from right under their feet as the duo make the very most of the clear, weedy water and intimate nature of the venue.

    Luxury lodge and big carp anyone? We join Myles Gibson, lakeside, at his newly acquired ‘big carp cabin’ on the Cotswold water park for 48 hours fishing. The somewhat unique little lake boasts an impressive stock of fish but with days-only fishing and dense weed to contend with, Elliott & Myles m...

  • St. Ives Lagoon | Tom Stokes & Oz Holness | S2: Ep.11

    Episode 11

    Oz Holness and Tom Stokes tackle the mighty St.Ives Lagoon. With little to no knowledge of the venue or it’s stock, they had their work cut out on the notoriously difficult, weed-choked Cambridgeshire pit. With numbers of anglers already in situ upon arrival, it was time to play carp chess and ev...

  • The Search For A Sixty | Tom Dove & Neil Spooner | S2: Ep.12

    Episode 12

    With close to a week booked at the home of one of the UK’s biggest carp, there were only two anglers we were going to draft in, Monster Carp duo Tom Dove and Neil Spooner.
