This is the first of our pods telling the story of our recent trip to Osaka, Japan where we immersed ourselves into the JDM motherland. From the insane Osaka tackle show to the delicate Megabass showcase event and everything in between we hope it gives listeners a tiny insight into our adventures some 6000 miles from home.

There will be way more to come and we will deep dive into some of our purchases and various lure that we hope to see in the UK in the future.

Thanks to all our listeners, we appreciate you more than you know.

Tight lines, D & A

BIG News For Dan, Ad & the Podcast

We're back with some BIG news for Episode 5. In fact, the news is so BIG it demands a BIG intro as well. So, we are honoured to have our good friend and lure angling behemoth, Thom Hunt ease us into this podcast, where we reveal our upcoming travel plans. As well as what we haven't been catching recently and some of the things we are looking ahead to in 2024.

January and February can be a miserable time for the fisher-person and that can inevitably lead to spending our hard earned pennies on lures in an effort to get some kind of fishing dopamine hit. And boy, are we going for the biggest, grade-A hit of retail therapy available to anyone that enjoys Japanese fishing tackle!

As ever, thanks for all your kind messages. We appreciate every listen, download and play more than you possibly know.

Tight lines and we look forward to coming in your ears from somewhere on the planet very soon.

Dan & Ad

(Our Producers would like to point out that Dan wishes nothing but good things for all bears, regardless of species and that, in hindsight his offer to fight a bear may be at best foolish.)

DNA Japan Part2 - How do you pronounce Ima?

We're back, back, back! Having mostly recovered from jet lag, aggressive cold symptoms and single-handedly propping up the Japanese economy we offer some more truth nuggets from our trip to Japan which mainly consists of what we spent our money on and when buyers remorse kicks in.

To kick us off we have the legend that is George Cunningham easing us into episode 7 with the most epic of intros. Recorded in a busy Japanese bar, at a very late hour, after a few refreshing beers. Complete with background noise, it sets the standard in the very best way. For those that don't know, George is the head of Tronixpro and HTO, as well of a host of other well known brands, and his influence on the UK lure fishing scene has been remarkable. We love you big G!

As the title suggests we don't know how to say Ima, or IMA. Is it I.M.A or not? Hopefully our IMA correspondent will clarify. Anyway, we finally have a listener (question) to answer, and we almost reveal (by mistake) our most successful lure for catching BIG reservoir Perch.

Thanks for taking the time to listen. As ever we appreciate every one of you. Spring will be with us soon. Tight lines, catch that PB, Dan & Ad
