Mortimer & Whitehouse: Gone Fishing. Image shows left to right: Bob Mortimer, Paul Whitehouse
Paul and Bob fish for crucian carp at a sequestered lake in Shropshire. In the hopes of guaranteeing success, they'll be staying lakeside in overnight bivvies.

Further details

Paul and Bob venture to Sutton Lake - a sequestered lake in Shropshire. They have their eyes set on catching a fish that has proved elusive over the years - the crucian carp.

This is Paul and Bob's second attempt at catching a crucian, but on this occasion, they are changing tactics. In the hopes of guaranteeing success, they'll be staying lakeside in overnight bivvies. Paul and Bob will fish late into the evening and early morning to make the most of the low light at both dawn and dusk - will this strategy work?
