The Big Fish Off - Season 4
Season 4
The banter fuelled, highly competitive and hilarious fishing challenge show returns for a fourth series on ITV4, pitting two sports star guests against each other in a battle to become top rod.
Coached by arch rival team captains – monster carp catching specialist Ali Hamidi and Olympian and all-star angler Dean Macey - the sporting guests face three tough challenges with pride and glory at stake.
Episodes
Tony Bellew vs. Dave Coldwell
Team captains Ali Hamidi and Dean Macey are joined by heavyweight boxer Tony ‘the bomber' Bellew and his boxing coach, Dave Coldwell – it's a case of master versus the apprentice. Both have never fished before in their lives – so this is angling entertainment at its best, as the lads learn the ropes over three tough challenges. The teams head to a tranquil fishery in West Sussex for this week's explosive first round one of three, which is a high octane match for crucian carp. Ali is teamed with Tony Bellew, and Dave Coldwell is with Deano. Crucians have a reputation for being hard to catch, and to stand a chance of winning the challenge, the teams will have to get their tactics spot on. Both guests do manage to lose their angling virginity, but who will come out on top at this early stage of the fight? Round two sees them head to Surrey to go toe-to-toe for tench and golden orfe, where the biggest total weight will win it. The fishing is slow, so there is plenty of time for fun and games, including wind-ups and maggot munching – but who has the stomach to win this one?
Jimmy Bullard vs. Jamie O'Hara
Team captains Ali Hamidi and Dean Macey are joined by football aces Jimmy Bullard and Jamie O'Hara at Anglers Paradise, in Devon. There is plenty of banter, laughs and wind-ups as the boys catch ornamental koi carp, blue orfe and golden tench.
Linford Christie vs. Katharine Merry
Former athletics stars Linford Christie and Katharine Merry join team captains Ali Hamidi and Dean Macey for the angling challenge.
Wayne Bridge vs. Kyran Bracken
Former footballer Wayne Bridge and ex-rugby union star Kyran Bracken join team captains Ali Hamidi and Dean Macey for the angling challenge.
