Watch exclusive interviews with, cricketer Sir Ian Botham and Finnish actor, Jasper Paakonen as they share their passion for fishing and thoughts on its future. We also show look at how fishing is changing the lives of aboriginal children in Northern Australia (https://tiwigarden.com) and how its helping women who suffer from breast cancer with Casting for Recovery UK (https://www.castingforrecovery.org.uk). The Wild Trout Trust (http://www.wildtrout.org) talk about their invaluabe work in the UK to maintain and restore trout habitat, whilst in Italy we look at how a coastal lagoon has been brought back to be a productive sport fishery.
