A Beautiful Fish

On Your Farm

Available for over a year

Simon Scott is a passionate carp angler. He loves nothing more than sitting on the banks of a lake, waiting for the perfect fish to bite. For more than a decade he's also been a fish farmer specialising in producing carp to stock angling lakes. He prides himself on breeding carp that grow fast and look beautiful. But what makes a 'beautiful' fish? Verity Sharp joins Simon on his farm to meet the fish and see inside the hatchery, where the next generation of carp have only just hatched. Producer: Heather Simons
