What do you get when you load two carp anglers into a van, aim for Holland, and hope for the best?
That’s exactly what Gaz Fareham and Mike Holly set out to find, armed with a van full of tackle, a sat nav, and plenty of optimism. Their mission? Track down some Dutch carp. The reality? A road trip packed with wrong turns, changing plans, dead ends and plenty of laughs.
This isn’t one of those perfectly polished fishing films where everything falls into place. It’s a genuine look at what happens when you tackle completely unfamiliar waters, jumping between lakes, rivers and canals, chasing rumours, following instincts, and constantly wondering if the next stop might finally produce the goods.
It’s less instructional masterclass and more road trip adventure, with plenty of banter, frustration and unexpected moments along the way.
If you’ve ever fancied loading the van and heading off on a fishing adventure with no guarantees, this one will feel very familiar. After countless miles, plenty of setbacks and more than a few questionable decisions, Gaz and Mike eventually get the reward they’ve been searching for.
Sometimes it’s not just about the carp—it’s about the adventure that gets you there. Wild Goose Chase is proof that the best fishing trips don’t always go to plan.
