Welcome to the Thinking Tackle podcast. If you like this show, then please remember to subscribe

so you don't miss our latest episodes. And please leave a review too, as we'd love to hear from you.

Right, today we're joined in the studio by Rob Burgess.

Now Rob was a corded sponsor angler before getting the job as Corda's first official

carp coach. Away from his coach and he splits his time between angling on big fish syndicate waters

such as the Essex Manor to competing at the highest level on the carp fishing

match scene. He recently fulfilled a personal ambition by landing a very old upper 40 common carp

from a Colm Valley syndicate water. So once again we welcome on the podcast, Rob Burgess.
