    I met Tom many years ago on Brasenose 1, he was smashing it carp after carp. I went over had a chat about his tactics and he took time to show me the rigs and how to tie up a small solid bag for a long chuck. Nothing but respect for ya, the green eyed monster is a very real and unfortunately it shows who has your back and whom is willing to stab you in it. More power to you for not rising to them, the cream always floats to the top Tom never forget that buddy

    There's a little over 1.1g of isoleucine per 100g of worm, there's 10.08g of isoleucine in a mussel. Mussels are also a really really good bait for carp fishing. It's the natural amino acids they're after.

    Listened to this episode in the car today on the way home. One of the most inspirational and yet upsetting episodes I’ve heard to date. Hearing Tom talk about an incident on social media which sounded absolutely awful just because he is a talented angler who found an edge. Glad you are through that and getting rewards you rightly deserve for effort.

So many podcasts are just entertaining stories with guests who can pass something on choosing not to that Tom is a breath of fresh air. 👏 Take a bow Tom and thanks for holding nothing back.

    Jealousy is an awful emotion in any aspect of life whatever it may be.. Fantastic angler who helps everybody in their own fishing. What you can learn from one video from Tom some people will not learn in a life time. Respect the angler for there catches. People only see the bad side of the individuals involved, whatever happens this Man will always be a carp catching machine and always inventing new ways of catching fish... good on you 👏

    Go on Tom!
    He's so right about the hours/effort/practice you need to put in in order to become an expert/world class in any area. Carp fishing is no different.
    FWIW I've never met Tom, but I've fished with Andy (his dad) on a couple of occasions and I know how proud of his son he is, and rightly so.
    Ultimately in life, I think that's about all that matters - having a loving family around you, supporting them and making them proud.
    So keep doing what you're doing, Tom: being the best dad, employee and angler you can be.
    The rest is largely immaterial.

    There will always be jealous people that don't get the time and effort you put into your fishing to get your results.
    The fact that you represent Korda the biggest brand out there in carp fishing and have support from Danny says it all.
    Continue to be innovative in your fishing and catch lots of fish and ignore the haters.
    Love the section on hearing about your early sessions fishing with your dad lovely memories.

    I would like to say it's when I see Korda supporting Tom, Carl and other anglers and also giving to cancer charities that I want to make an effort and use their tackle.
    We all know they make great gear but next time I will make an effort to purchase their brand in support. Actions speak louder than words! Once again good on you Korda and stay strong Tom.

    Great podcast mate, you came across very well 👌🏼. There’s always people out there who will try to put down successful people, it’s all boils down to jealousy. Keep doing your thing 💪🏻🐋

    Love this. You speak so well about everything but particularly how spiteful these online bullies are. Your comments about the real harm they can cause are spot on. We both sat here and said they're jealous. Despicable people.
    Good on yer Tom!

    Just came across your podcast I know nothing about coarse fishing Good on you Tom
    I know exactly where your coming from had it for 7 years sea fishing switched to fly fishing took 3 years hard work and dedication ended up with a few caps and winning prestigious troutmaster final found the more successful you are the more knives get stuck in your back
    I've now joined a small syndicate and switched to coarse fishing total novice at this I've started with a 3m and 6m whip and a couple of stick floats and thoroughly enjoying it
    Any tips would be much appreciated
    Thanks again
    Jealousy is a horrible decrease Tom
    Keep up the good work and the very best of luck with your new job

    Toms sound you can see he hasn’t changed one bit over the years. He is what he is and that’s a decent bloke that can catch serious amounts of carp. It’s a shame he had to go through all that shit just for some fishing. If I see you on the bank Tom il buy you a cherry coke brother.

    Hi Tom, I couldn't listen to this without commenting!
    Personally I dislike social media for the negative reasons, and you have to read your fair share of trolling which sucks, in my experience those that troll are usually unhappy for 1 reason or another in their own lives and have to take out there frustrations on other people, it's very sad!
    I've took a lot of advice and tips from watching you on youtube over the years and your one of the best anglers out there and I for one is so pleased you've got through the hard times and are genuinely happy and in a good place and you deserve to be working for korda.
    I'm one of those anglers who probably only does half a dozen 48 hr sessions a year but I still love it, I'm usually a shy person so don't go to these angling shows but hopefully I will one day and would love to say hi, and thanks 👍🏻
    I have recently started using the fluro d rig in my own angling and can understand why you use it! So easy to tie and it works 🙂 I've been using it to great affect as a snowman rig too.
    Thanks for all you do for the carp fishing industry, I 100% get everything you said, I went through a rough patch about the same time as you and get it, look after yourself Tom 🙏🏻

    Outstanding podcast Korda , Tom is an outstanding angler who is a perfectionist through shear graft and effort day in day out. Yes it will cause jealousy through anglers who don't , won't spend their life perfecting and improving their natural talent , no different in any sport , the more you put in the more you get out.
    Exactly right too Tom you didn't but if you did have a cheating edge they wanted it to use not because they were interested in what's morally right/wrong.
    Thanks for making/agreeing to this podcast Tom / Korda as it's set a record straight I never doubted but a lot did , so glad your family pulled you through it . Huge respect fella 👊 .

    You are the perfect partner for Korda Tom. A very honest an expansive interview and a few golden tips thrown in there too, like the importance of water tow. So sad that such a large number of the jealous want to bully and attack on social media, but you have come through it and hopefully you have the experience to know how to be less affected by the negativity now.
    Good luck to you. But remember, it may be your job, the thing you love, but its still "only fishing".
    Building still needs good sparkies, dads are always right!

    Awesome podcast Tom. The people against you are the middle-aged men who wanted it, but never had the desire to achieve it. Jealousy is paramount in the fishing world and you should be so proud of what you have achieved, for yourself and no one else. Forget the haters - they are the people logging onto your social media accounts daily looking for tips.
