Big Carp Angler and Sub Surface icon Gaz Fareham joins us on this weeks Thinking Tackle Uncut. With Spooner and Dovey out filming in in Europe, Damo and Adam are joined by Gaz for an honest, thoughtful chat about life, fishing, and what it really takes to balance both.

Gaz talks about how his fishing has changed completely over the last 18 months — working full-time in horticulture, living away from home, and squeezing every ounce out of 10-hour "work night" sessions. Despite the graft, Gaz has still managed to land some incredible carp — including a rare 49lb mirror called Black Spot — proving what's possible when you're organised, efficient, and determined.

🎣 In this episode:

• How he catches carp fishing in short overnight sessions
