After another year of wonderful fishing adventures in the UK, Paul and Bob decide to cast their net a little further afield for this end-of-year special. They visit south west France to fish the River Lot, with some new species in their sights, including black bass, vandoise and grass carp. \n \nTheir overnight accommodation is the Moulin de Toulzanie, a grand old mill perched right on the edge of the river. Paul tries to concentrate on the fishing, but Bob, as ever, wants to reminisce and chat about their past year together.
