Ali Hamidi is joined by angling buddy Roo Abbott and diver Luc Boerrigter for a mission where they must catch a carp with the bite filmed on underwater cameras - the destination is Chase Lakes in France, a 12-acre gravel pit with 250 carp weighing as much as over 70 pounds. The carp are playing hard to get in the tough spring conditions and constant tweaking of tactics is required after seeing how they are feeding - will the team's fine-tuning of rigs and hook baits tempt that holy grail bite?

Ali Hamidi and Bobby Zamora head to the mighty Iktus in France for the first instalment of a two-part special - their tricky mission is to catch a koi each and a carp of 50 pounds or more in front of underwater cameras. The carp show themselves on the live screens early on, but they then become camera-shy and move out into deeper water where the clarity is poor. Former striker Bobby then infuriates Ali by going rogue with a rod and wanting a catch at any cost... which earns him a yellow card.
