I've spoken to him on the phone, He's bought some pike lures (wonder where he gets that from :D) and a catapult (Kids cannot resist catapults:p)

But a really good day by all acounts, Both kids got Matt's autograph and he really put himself out,.

in the early days i wasnt too keen on matt,but over the years(after hearing some good stuff)he has grown on me:):)
 
Me and Big Tel spoke to him today in the shop, he said he was working on a new series of programmes. I also asked him about Mick Brown, and he said he packed in fishing about 4 years ago..:o....seemed a canny bloke like....:)
 
If you wanted a carp setup it would be very cheap..rods for a tenner, f/s reels for a fiver, had some canny clothing in as well. Beach gear was a bit sparse though, but the guy in the shop said they are going to get more sea gear in :)

Mick's still fishing, He's sponsored by shimano, got a lot of new videos on youtube.
 
That must have been what he meant....that they didnt do the tv programmes together anymore :)...shame like, the rod race ones were good to watch...:(
 
Matt has done the 3rd series of rod race on his own, which is a shame as the banter between the 2 of them was great.
The original 24 hour rod race is up there with the best fishing TV I've watched along with catching the impossible and seeking shadows.
