Helped me through a hard time.

Suffering from panic attacks for about a month now it's horrible, this isn't my usual show but I somehow got watching it and it really helped me through the hardest time in my life.

Delightful

It is like sitting in a pub, quietly, surreptitiously listening to two old friends reminiscing and talking nonsense. The "script", music and photography are truly magnificent. Long may it continue.

Totally hooked.

What I love about this show is you feel these two comedic stars are real buddies. They play off each other with great timing but also have a goal with a fish to catch. Whoever worked out the format deserves a pat on the back.

If you want to escape the stresses of day to day life then kickback and watch these two chaps doing what most men of a certain age would love to do.

TV for the current world

Never left a review of anything or anyone. This is so completely life affirming. The fishing is secondary. If this doesn't make smile and want to spend time with friends, laughing and smiling you may need to check your pulse.

Wonderful

Sometimes in life, all you need is half an hour of two incredibly funny men fishing, chatting, introspecting and making you laugh and that is what you get here. Gone Fishing is relaxing, beautiful on the eye, occasionally quite moving and, above all, just funny. It's a show I could watch again and again.
