Catching the Impossible

Has anyone heard of martin bowler's "catching the impossible". it looks amazing!! the cameraman was the bloke that filmed "passion for angling"
It will feature Martin fishing with various people, depending on which species he is going for.
They have caught, not just one but a couple of 40lbs carp I believe, a 7lb Chub, a 3lbs roach (from the Dorset Stour with Terry Lampard) a 30lbs pike! Some truly astonishing fish.

Bernad Cribbins is both Narating and he appears in the series fishing I believe. Its been somthing like 8 years in the makeing. This has got the potential to be better than A Passion for Angling!

here's a quick teaser clip I have found

Seems they hope to complete the filming by next winter and then I suppose its up to the highest bidder from TV land or a DVD release company that decides its future, stay tuned........................

“Impossibly Large…” Now, now, Bernard. Calm yourself.

As for Bowler, it’s high time he cut his bloody hair and got a proper job!


There’s been stuff on the Passion site for years about this series. Personally I doubt it could ever come close to passion. For me that caught a moment in time that will never be here again, but that’s not to say it won’t be worth watching if Hugh Miles is behind the camera.

shame but sadly true julian got to agree there

i hope danny fairbrass is involved in some way,i rate his superb collection of dvds far superior than the passion for angling series.
