Korda - The Thinking Tackle Podcast

The Korda UNCUT Podcast returns and with Damian missing, the lads are joined by Big Carp fishing pro Oscar Thornton (Mindset) - fresh off the back of a session that was meant to take weeks… but was wrapped up in just 10 days.
Fishing a low-stock lake with a handful of target carp, Oscar committed early: pick an area, bait it properly, and sit on it. While others were fishing light and moving on showing fish, he went the other way - find out exactly what he did to get the quick win. It’s a proper look at backing your own approach and letting it play out.
🎧 In this episode:
Oscar Thornton’s 10-day campaign and catching target carp quickly
Fishing a low-stock venue and committing to one area
Heavy baiting in spring vs following showing fish
Long-range fishing at 140+ yards and staying accurate
Hinged stiff rigs over seed, hemp and crumb
Undertow, debris, and keeping rigs fishing properly
Sitting it out vs moving - and trusting the process
Dovey ending a long blank and why one bite changes everything

In this episode of Thinking Tackle Uncut Podcast, Tom Dove talks through with Neil Spooner, Damian Clarke and Adam Reed about one of his toughest runs in recent memory - weeks of effort, plenty of time on the bank, and very little back for it.
The kind of spell every angler hits, but not everyone admits to. From there, it turns into a proper conversation about sticking things out, understanding bite times, and why one bite can completely reset everything. Along the way, the lads get into how modern fishing pressure, changing seasons, and bait are influencing how lakes fish now compared to years ago.
🎧 In this episode:
Dovey's longest blank and fishing through it
Why one bite changes everything
Bite time windows and feeding spells in colder conditions
Spooner's race weekend and pushing outside fishing
Latest Spooner's 50s, including a 57lb+ common at 15 years old
Another UK 60lb carp, and how many are really out there
Why carp are getting bigger - bait, pressure, environment
Is Autumn still what it used to be?
Spring fishing, low baiting, and quick bites
