Summary

The boys Tom Dove, Neil Spooner, Damian Clarke and Adam Reed are back with another unfiltered Thinking Tackle Podcast Uncut session – real fishing talk, real experiences, and no holding back.

In this episode, they dive into recent sessions, sharing the highs, the lows, and the lessons learned along the way. We also have "the great Noddy debate" – Is Spooner officially a Noddy?

Inside this episode:

Hard-earned captures, tough blanks, and why some waters just aren't playing ball.
The zig fishing breakthrough – why some anglers still avoid it and how to make it work.
Filming Underwater at Manor – what happens when the UK's biggest fully-scaled mirror is under the lens?
Spring tactics that actually catch fish – baiting approaches, rigs, and adapting to changing conditions

Plus: We share the inside track on upcoming Korda films, including Rob Burgess' Zig Masterclass.
