I take it we're talking the tv series?

I've watched a few - pretty good - he starts out all alarmist then over the course of the programme gets a bit more realistic. The Hoplias this week was gigantic & he caught a nice RTC. Interesting from a generic fishy point of view.

I've seen all 3 series. I like them but as Richard says there are a lot of histrionics and time filling/repetition. I still enjoy them though.

I'm sure RedTailRob is not expecting to buy fish from the TV series... ;)

I'm pretty sure I've heard of a company called "River Monsters", but unfortunately, googling it causes all manner of TV programming to get in the way of finding the shop site.

Mats is correct, I certainly wasnt trying to buy fish from a TV program hence the Topic being placed in the For Sale UK & ROI section :-\
Seen this company on the internet, facebook & Aquarist classifids.
Based in Oldman & specialising in Rare fish such as Big Snakeheads, Large Pims, Knifefish etc - wondered if any had any experience of using them.
