This exotic programme sees Matt Hayes jet-setting off to the heavenly Azores. Here the pure blue waters have long been famous for their abundance of tuna, and are increasingly winning a similar fame for their swordfish and marlin. Matt spends a tantalising few days learning complex big-fishing techniques, and persevering admirably in his battle to lure the blue and white marlin to his bait. He then heads to Madeira where, aboard the Katherine B, he catches and examines a skipjack and some vicious wahoo, with the help of an expert who has left his home in Australia to devote his life to the hunt for these big fish.
