Ian "Chilly" Chillcott - Nash Off The Hook Podcast - S2 Episode 69
Спорт
This week the podcast welcomes a truly inspirational man and iconic carp angler in the shape of the lovable character that is Ina “Chilly” Chillcott.
WARNING! This podcast is a real emotional roller-coaster so be prepared for tears as well as plenty of laughter and epic story telling!
Chilly takes us all the way back to his paratrooper days sharing funny stories and describing how he even from frankly scary young aged always wanted to jump from the sky. His para days took him all over the world into various hostile environments and in contact with some pretty menacing characters but throughout it all his love for fishing and carp angling in particular blossomed.
Moving onto his incredible “early days” carp angling exploits on the likes of Horton, Yateley Car Park Lake, Wraysbury and Farriers to name but a few, which include the captures of infamous carp such as “Jack The Net Ripper”, “The Dustbin” and a host of epic big commons. Chilly shares his experiences in terms of his angling and how his friendships blossomed with fellow anglers such as Dave Lane etc. His success in his angling also led him to contribute to written angling media a lot as well as him being involved working in the industry with Fox International. Chilly talks openly about how his angling progressed overtime and how his involvement within the trade change up until one faithful day where his life changed.
The life changing event was the discovery of a life threatening brain tumour. He describes in a raw unedited way how he came to undergo and pull through a very intense surgery and how his recovery has changed him as a person as well as his angling. It’s a truly inspirational and confronting tale of how incredible the human mind came be but also how fragile life is. Throughout it all Chilly has always had angling to “Light His Fire” and this fire is burning away brighter than ever as he continues to chase his carp fishing dreams.
Chilly rounds of his podcast by thanking significant people who have helped him recover as well as talking about his prognosis for his future and what that looks like with a very surprising but exciting development.
There’s one thing for sure you cannot fail but to truly admire the man, despite everything he has battled and continues to fight his drive, determination and shear stubbornness combined with his love for carp fishing means that he is still out there catching incredible carp and will continue to do so for as long as he can!

Great pod cast. Haven’t see you chilly for many a year. Inspirational to hear how you have faced these difficult times. Always remember you as a true gentleman with a touch of the wildness that further improves and embellishes your character. Much love and wellness to you mate. Maybe we will be bump into each other over at CAA or some pond somewhere. One can hope. Agree that in someways the magic is different than it was in the days of the old car park lake and other such beginnings ; for example. I was there a year or two before before you, but for me catching those jewels still lives on and burns strong in the memory But as you say in us old guard the magic lives on , and practicing the art of being there with a carp thrown in for good measure. Brilliant interview. I shall tune in. See you around mate. Dessie.
Absolute class bloke no bullish!!t I can only agree with his views on now and then totally different views from totally different generations of carp anglers/fishing I wish it was as was it’s not the same these days but I still love it (when it’s quiet)
Brilliant watching it again
Not listened yet, but I know this is going be great stuff. Huge respect for chilly
#legend great podcast 👏 👌 👍 🙌 😀
Great podcast, really enjoyable. Good luck with the KZread channel.
Need to correct you there chilly mate, Ive watched carp whilst fishing a margin in 18inch of crystal clear water see my rig,, they backed up from it and took all the particles all around the rig staying well away from it ! Carp can DEFFO see your rig , specially somat as un natural looking and shaped like a led.on a clear bottom ! Your opinion on rigs and all these technical names is spot on 😂.
Marker floating or leading Around spooks your area now days with the amount of pressure on lakes now which is why I use a deeper , I always use to have a led on braid casting around untill realised I was actually spooking everything off the marks before I found them ! Feel really let down hear
A REAL man
Looking really well chilly on strength to strength wish you all the best buddy
Wild, watched you for years, turns out you worked with my old man at Robinsons jam factory. Small world
Seems like a right good egg, Mr Chillcott.
Yes 👏🏻👏🏻🙌🏻
Btw Hasan you are a superb interviewer 👍👍👍
What a brilliant man! True inspiration
