Caught In The Act - Parts 3 & 4 (Autumn & Winter) DVD review I recently reviewed the second 2 x DVD set of the
excellent "Caught In The Act" by Bob Roberts & Stuart Walker, for FishingMagic. The two DVDs in this installment cover the seasons of autumn and winter You can read the full review at the
following link, but I've also included a few snippets below: Caught In The Act parts 3 & 4 FishingMagic.com Review
"From the very moment you set eyes on the package the atmosphere is already building... Press play and the atmosphere further builds with the epic, soaring
classical title music which seems to audibly frame the stunning intro
visuals perfectly. By this point I was already sucked in and couldn’t
wait to see what came next."
"Both anglers exude enthusiasm and confidence alongside a genuine belief
and interest in what they’re doing whenever they are on screen." "There are no fancy rigs or ‘You must use this specific tackle item or
you won’t catch’ and the rigs that are used are well explained, with a
few bonus tips... The mixture of short but well-articulated rig and tackle talks in each
act blend effortlessly into the film between scenic wide-angle shots,
close-ups of the anglers in action and of course, the quality underwater
footage." "Caught in the Act is essential viewing for all anglers, especially those
looking to reconnect with the simple pleasures of the pursuit of
specimen fish, in all seasons."

which is surely the ultimate test of any fishing programme. I highly
recommend that you watch CITA to judge for yourself, but I would rate it
as one of the best fishing programmes I’ve watched since ‘A Passion’ (For Angling)"
My second-ever carp, this 9lb 2oz fish taken at Tibshelf Ponds on freelined crust (with 10lb line straight through on a MATCH rod!) set me a long-standing PB back in the mid-90s and marked my first step towards becoming a "Specimen Hunter"
