Show Notes Chapter Markers

Probably the most well  known Carp Angling brothers in the USA,  Austin and Brendan Pass sit down with Sean to discuss their personal history with the species, as well as their special bond with Carl and Alex from the UK. They look at the cultural differences between the two countries and their experiences fishing overseas for the very first time.  They discuss the cultural changes that are going on with the next generation of Carp Anglers in the USA as well as some particularly challenging venues that they have faced in the past.

If you are a lover of exotic food combinations and want to hear from a US Anglers perspective of life travelling overseas to fish for carp in the UK, then this is a must listen!
