UNCUT Podcast #043: An Inch Makes HUGE Difference (UPDATED)

Dovey, Spooner, Damo and Adam are all back together in this episode of Thinking Tackle Podcast Uncut. The lads take a look back on a session that produced 18 carp, close encounters with the country’s BIGGEST fully scaled mirror carp (aka their target fish), and a fascinating discussion around rigs, presentations, and how something as small as an inch of hooklink length can completely change the outcome of a session.A week at The Manor, plenty of bites, and a few moments where it genuinely felt like the lake’s giant, fully scaled mirror was only one mistake away from getting caught. From fishing clay spots amongst heavy weed to spotting the big fish over the baited area, there were plenty of moments where confidence was sky high - but the result everyone wanted remained just out of reach.🎧 In this episode:The Manor trip and fishing for one of the UK’s biggest fully scaled mirrorsA once-in-a-lifetime moment seeing the target fish show directly over the spot.18 carp landed and a week of near missesFishing clay spots, weed beds and adapting to changing conditionsChod rig length, hookbait presentation + why an inch can make all the difference.Spinner rigs vs chod rigs and when each comes into its ownThe return of the Pango pop-upSpooner’s latest session at WrasburyThe latest Spooner’s 50s, plus a 66lb Old Mill carpA proper carp fishing episode covering rigs, presentations, big fish thinking, and those fine margins that often decide whether you catch them or not.📬 Want to join the Spooner’s 50 Club in 2026?Send your UK 50 entries to: [email protected] more information, visit:http://www.kordatackle.co.ukhttps://www.facebook.com/kordaofficial ⁠http://instagram.com/kordaofficial⁠
