Norfolk Fishing Life a coarse angling blog

As many of you who regularly read my fishing blog will know I am quite a fan of TV fishing programs.  I recently discovered ‘The Greater Rod Race’ by Mick Hayes and Mick Brown.These two characters just have me in stitches as they fight their way through all challenges to achieve the fishing goals.

Their combination of characters and styles are really complimentary and I think they are a very successful fishing double act. The ‘Two Ronnies’ of the fishing world. Keep it up lads, you have incentivised me to return to the bank, and when I cannot be there I can enjoy the fact you are.

I am sad to report the 24×7 fishing TV fest on Discovery Real Time Extra has finished.

It was great during the month of May to be able to tune in any time and catch a few mins of fishing. I do believe it was partly down to this that I have made it back on to the bank, so I give ‘respect’ to the channel and thank them for the nudge to stop watching and start fishing!

OK, I appreciate we are now well into May, but better late than never! Discovery Real Time Extra, for the whole month of May, is showing fishing programmes 24 hours a day, 7 days per week. It was partly this non-stop fishing marathon that has encouraged me to get back on to the bank side.

There are some real classics on here like ‘Go Fishing’ and some new ones like ‘The Greater Rod Race’!

I know I can get Discovery Real Time Extra on channel 252, not sure if it is available on other providers.
