Turns out, it wasn't a giant; it was a fish.

What a lovely man and true gentleman Chris is.

Ah remember watching this live, I was 17 and loved the whole series. Just so great

WWWW

A stolen trailer 😂

Excellent discussion but the real problem is that the Norwegians who control the Salmon Farming Industry first got the Genetic samples in Donegal in 72, 75 and 82 and possibly got more from the Western Isles, Therefore when we get escapees from these farms and they interbreed years after the species is getting weaker and weaker such as what is currently happening in Iceland the Wild Atlantic Salmon is being destroyed by River Pollution from Agricultural Runoff and the heavy use of fertilizers and from wastewater not being properly treated, If one looks at Ireland all Chemical and Pharmaceutical Plants have be built on Riverbanks since the 70ts All these combinations have to be strictly monitored unless we are to succeed in not loosing the The True Atlantic Salmon forever,

Arctic char!

Salmon /Sea Trout.!?

Fly-Fishing? Or? ❤

“My biggest salmon and I’ve done it on the fly” Aw nonsense Paul. You were being recorded for tv. That’s like the exact opposite o doing it on the fly.

I used to love watching this

Forced perspective. That’s a minnow.

That was a monster. Where is this? Iceland or something?

Stunning looking fish!

We would go nut's if we weren't allowed to watch hooked on fishing as kids, I had the pleasure of meeting Paul in Mike's tackle shop in Portobello before it closed as well and nowadays I'm a fishing addict

I fart on command

Memorable fish!

What are they eating there, to get to that incredible size?

Welcome in Spain.

Cool, nice rig!

Incredible colours!

It was a Female with all they eggs, and it should have been put back in.

Using illegal bait way to be

I wonder if a dry fly wouldn't work better on such a stream?

Yes it’s still there

The miracle is that back then we caught carp on basic tackle using field craft, Chris being a master of his craft. If you were wise and you caught a big fish from an unknown water that anyone could fish you kept it quiet.

Keith lived a few houses down from my gran, knows my dad well and was always very kind and encouraging to me as a young lad.

Gives me goosebumps. Fishing back then must have been magical.

60-80 lbs in that era is like saying you saw the Loch Ness monster 😂

Why they got bros meat on display

Hell of a fish👌🏴‍☠️

This brings back memories of fishing with Chris near Farnham in Surrey, in 1985.

Lovely Tweed fish!

Awesome

Great tales.

That is absolutely crazy

I live on the coast, 15 miles from the Toon. Just down the road really

God what an irritating tosser! So arrogant too

No sweet corn as bate .That has stopped now i think.

In all honesty i rekon this is a tall tale to keep the mystery of carp fishing and the legend of Redmire alive.

Big

Plot twist: he got snagged

Great Man Paul and Fisherman, had a few wee drinks with him. 🙃

Tuna have been in UK waters for years. Though they seem to be showing more and more. It's solely catch and release though.

Stay away from the head, that thing can brake ur bones

I don’t care if they have them aslong as it has no viruses Cow meat and all that have parasites that don’t matter because we cook it

Boring ,go back to sleep and never wake up

Redmire has never been the same since.

Nice to see you put it back mate😊❤
