The Big Catch
Eight passionate enthusiasts compete in this epic fishing contest as they set out on an adventure that takes them to the most dramatic and challenging fishing destinations around the world, from the Mekong River in Laos to the snow-capped mountains of British Columbia. Contending with tropical climes and sub-zero temperatures, the contestants are tested in every aspect of their endurance and expertise as adventurer Ben Fogle challenges them to combine their own talents with local fishing techniques. The competitors are judged by leading angler, Matt Hayes, who is joined by local experts in each stunning location. Alongside the many twists and turns of a tense competition, the series explores the real life jeopardy of the incredible world of fishing. Produced by the BBC’s renowned Natural History Unit the series features a rich variety of fish and their behaviour, filmed in locations as diverse as Iceland, Costa Rica and Zambia.

    @@MegaMementoMori Well, these sport fishermen probably know a lot more about the fish in our waters than you (or me) and they monitor these fish, contributing to our human knowledge of species health - which contributes greatly to our ability to protect fish. The fact that the fish was released mostly unharmed is a great relief. And this is coming from a plant based eater..

    @@MrSandpaperCondom I get what you are saying, I don't like fishing all that much. However this is the fastest fish in the world and can get up to 110kmh(!), and is very impressive at almost 2m long. For a keen fisherman this would be the ultimate catch. I'm glad he let it go and it looked mostly unharmed.
