UNCUT Podcast #015: UK Fifty's, Damo's New UW Rig & Crying Over Smelling Salts
Korda - The Thinking Tackle PodcastShow Notes
Two UK Fifty Pound Carp in 1 Podcast! This Korda Thinking Tackle Podcast Uncut is one of our most entertaining and unpredictable episodes yet. In this session, Damian and Adam both share the stories behind landing two of the most impressive UK carp we've seen – both tipping the scales well over 50lb. From rig setups and location choices to bite-time tactics, you'll get the full breakdown of how these captures came together. We're also joined by Neil Spooner and Tom Dove as the full crew reunites to talk carp, rigs, and life on the bank following a recent Underwater filming trip. Expect the usual dose of honesty, humour, and a fair bit of banter – plus learn about the NEW "Spooner Cup" challenge. Plus we caught the moment the team decided to try smelling salts live on the podcast. It went about as well as you'd expect. You'll also hear: - The thinking behind winning underwater rig tweaks - Why swim choice is more important than ever - The mental and physical grind of targeting specific carp And how a random decision led to one of the quickest 50s we've seen

The Uncut Podcast lads Tom Dove and Neil Spooner are back from the legendary Korda Social, and there’s plenty to catch up on.A week over on Gigantica for Big Carp, Big Laughs and a brilliant Masterclass filmed, where Tom finally pulled ball one out of the draw bag and made the most of it.

Tom Dove and Adam Reed are back from an incredible week at Gigantica, and this one took some beating. Listen as they tell Damo and Spooner about their record-breaking week in this weeks Thinking Tackle Podcast UNCUT. After the previous group set a new Main Lake record with 140 carp, the challenge was on. What followed was a huge team effort, with bites coming right until the final minutes and an incredible 146 carp landed in a week. But it wasn’t just about numbers. Adam finally got his chance on the Main Lake and made it count, catching one of Gigantica’s most iconic old carp, Shoulders, while Darrell Peck put together an incredible hit from Alcatraz.
Darrell Peck & Rob Burgess are back on the UNCUT Podcast with Neil Spooner and Adam Reed. This time Pecky’s got a 65lb UK common to talk about. After seeing the fish repeatedly during his spring campaign, Pecky returned for one last chance and finally got his hands on it at 65lb 4oz.The interesting bit is how he caught it - a simple solid PVA bag presentation, tied after watching none other than Rob Burgess on his very popular Solid Bag Masterclass.Luckily, Rob’s sitting opposite him this week.That leads into a proper look at solid bag fishing - the rig, hookbait, bag size, accuracy and a few small details that both Rob and Pecky believe make a massive difference.🎧 In this episode:- Pecky’s 65lb 4oz UK common- Why he stuck to the area despite seeing the fish elsewhere- The solid PVA bag rig that caught it- Rob Burgess - why solid bags can outfish everything- Why your hookbait should have zero buoyancy- Small bags, minimal bait for perfect presentation- Rob’s new YouTube channel - He’s a YouTuber- Spooner’s trip to Etang Rapid with his son Fred- Pecky’s plans for Gigantica and this autumn- Korda Kontender and some impressive young anglersIt’s a proper technical one this week - a huge UK carp, a simple method and two anglers who know exactly how to get the most from it.📬 Want to join the Spooner’s 50 Club in 2026 (Last Chance).Send your UK 50 entries to: [email protected] more information, visit:http://www.kordatackle.co.ukhttps://www.facebook.com/kordaofficial http://instagram.com/kordaofficial
