Henry Gilbey, one of television’s most energetic and enthusiastic fishing presenters is back for a brand new second series of Wild Fishing. 

 

Armed with his robust and excitable persona, Henry leaves his comfort zone behind and heads to the remoteness of artic Norway, a thriving location for UK sea anglers. 

 

He also travels to some wild and deserted beaches in Mozambique and closer to home, Henry challenges himself with the gentle art of fly fishing in the West Country and in Ireland he fishes the rugged western shores, proving that this deserted coastline offers some of the finest and most unspoilt shore fishing in Europe.

 

UK Premiere: Fridays at 9pm from 5th January
