Trophy fish come in all sorts of shapes and sizes and if you know anything of our work you'll know that we adore the smaller, more obscure species that inhabit our shores. Today's topic is the diminutive little Butterfly Blenny which we have been lucky enough to stumble upon and on a recent July trip we went back to see if they're where we left them almost two years ago. We also get into a game of fish target Top Trumps which could've been a whole episode on its own.

Thanks for all your comments and may you soon catch a rarity.

Here is the much delayed episode that follows our adventures fishing the Sea Angling Classic this year. The awful weather, the colds and the race to win a boat are all laid bare in this pod that we've had to drag back from deletion after some tech issues. Apologies for the delay everyone and please enjoy our annual bait fishing extravaganza.

Summer Zander fishing is a rare treat for us, we're usually getting salt on our lures in June but we had to fish this event for many reasons and not least to catch giant Zander in shallow water.....or so we thought!

Join us as we break down our weekend away Zander fishing hoping to get another podium finish at Graham Water.

Here we go. As promised, our latest DNA Versus episode is the inaugural edition of ‘Wrasse Pro’, fishing head-to-head against each other out on the boat. Big colourful Ballan Wrasse are the target and in a slight twist we weigh all captures to gain our total top five fishes combined weight, inline with what we've come to see in the US bass fishing tournaments. We've never put a Ballan on the scales at sea before so what does a 40cm Wrasse weigh? You're about to find out. This was a lot of fun to record so please sit back and place your bets. Wrasse Pro is about to begin. Do check out hard.rockfishing.co.uk for all the lures, rods and tackle we used through the day, as well as pictures of the stunning Ballan Wrasse.

Tight lines, Dan & Ad

This time around Adam gives us the lowdown on his Kefalonia Kebabs mixed with some Med clear water lure fishing. Dan explains his awful start to the year including tanking at Pike Maniacs! We discuss the first ever Wrasse Pro which is the exciting new comp devised and fished by the DNA crew but mainly its two mates catching up.

Thanks to everyone for listening and tight lines. DnA

On this award winning episode we report from the recent Lure Anglers Society Canal Cup match on the Oxford canal with mixed results, for us at least.

Ad gives us the lowdown on some of HTOs 2024 line up including some quality entry level rods that defy their price point.

Dan has been poached by the LAS!

Listeners questions finally get answered.

We are nearly ready for the saltwater games to begin but Dan has to get some Pike fishing out of his system first.

We exclusively reveal how to pronounce IMA

Welcome aboard. We're back, back ,back with a very late episode that covers our visit to the Big One show and more specifically the Lure Live section ran by Predator tackle. It was a nice gauge of where the lure scene is at in the UK and whilst it isn't yet shoulder barging the Carp guys into the long grass it's certainly holding its own. We spent a few quid, met some great people and ate some wonderful cake. Please sit back, fluff up a cushion and excuse the poor audio.

Enjoy the tightest of lines, Dan & Ad

Ad manages to stay in the country long enough to record episode 8, after a pizza-filled, dream trip to Lake Bolsena, Italy with Lowrance - the marine electronics experts.

In this episode we discuss what it's like to be a 'Bass pro' for a few hours. Ad shares the nuggets of information gleaned from a genuine, Italian bass fishing professional. And of course, we bring you detail of an exciting, new launch of fish finders - the Lowrance Eagle.

It feels like the appropriate time to delve into the back catalogue and discuss some pivotal moments in our angling where technology played a key role.

Thanks again for taking the time to listen. As ever we appreciate it. The main fishing season is getting closer! Tight lines, Dan & Ad
