    Great programme. Wouldn't get me in one of those flimsy canoes in the amazon at any price.
  • It is a great show but I prefer Hillbilly Handfishing, that's a classic!

    Not exactly a river monster, but we caught a Giant Goby in a rockpool earlier today.

    Had only caught these tiny little things up until that point and then this (relatively - for a rockpool!) huge thing turns up in the net. Thought it was a clump of seaweed at first, until it started thrashing about and nearly made me drop me bucket!

    Christ knows how I'd react if I came face to face with one of them things the fella on that programme usually goes looking for!

    Yep I agree its a really well put together program......Fishing the cooling ponds at Chernobyl was really quite spooky.

    I like it too. The presenter is really good - you can tell he loves what he does. Reminds me of Steve Backshall in his obvious enthusiasm for his subject.
