Just when they thought things couldn’t get any better, this session of a lifetime takes another turn, resulting in what could easily become the most incredible hauls of carp we’re ever lucky enough to document on Cypography. A lake of truly enormous proportions, with carp to match, that leaves a ...

Elliott joins long-time mate, Dovey, for The Session film at Sandhurst Lake and my god did it kick off! With the Sandy fish in fine summer fettle and on the munch, the action came thick and fast, culminating in the biggest carp we’ve managed to document for Cyp so far! There’s no smoke and mirror...

We met Walthamstow veteran, John Barnes, on the gate as London woke around us. While commuters swigged flat whites and rubbed sleep from their eyes, we charged off to find fish on the reservoirs that John has called home for the last 15 years. Nobody knows these waters like John, and we hoped tha...

We often dreamt of making underwater carp fishing films, and those dreams have now become reality. The Submerge series is here, and our first attempt really couldn’t have gone any better. This film is the first of two parts, which document the quite extraordinary scenes that went down whilst fish...

With his long-awaited club lake target finally caught, Elliott closes that chapter for the year and returns to familiar ground. Back on his ‘golden ticket’ syndicate, home to some of the finest carp in the county.

With autumn now beginning to take hold and the fish showing signs of feeding heavi...

It seemed like Junction 12 Carp Lake was forever going to be Elliott's nemesis, with two blanks trips to the venue under his belt already, it was time to return to Reading and make it happen! With the lake to himself you'd think it would be easy, which couldn't be further from the truth; It took ...

Elliott join’s Oscar Thornton at his local syndicate lake for a thirties fest. Oscar’s a young angler, renowned for catching big carp, and these maggot-munching monsters are a prime example. With plenty of laughs and a shed load of bites, if there’s ever a film to fire you up then this is it!

Luxury lodge and big carp anyone? We join Myles Gibson, lakeside, at his newly acquired ‘big carp cabin’ on the Cotswold water park for 48 hours fishing. The somewhat unique little lake boasts an impressive stock of fish but with days-only fishing and dense weed to contend with, Elliott & Myles m...

Carp fishing against the clock, no privileges, no pre-baiting, just instinct to see him through! Elliott tackles Junction 12 carp lake with just 24 hours to catch a carp; no more, no less! A situation many of you will relate to, and a style of angling that the average guy must adopt for a huge pr...

Elliott Gray’s diary returns, in the form of The Cypographer. This is Cypography, a feast for the senses! If you loved the old Korda diaries then boy are you going to enjoy this; it's full of awesome carp and is topped by a LIVE 40-pounder!

Stokesy and Elliott go head-to-head in an underwater match. It’s mid-February, there’s huge carp in play, but the conditions are against them. With freezing temperatures and snags all over the place, getting bites will be a challenge. Both anglers must use maggots as part of their approach, and w...

We've got a huge slice of the juiciest live action, brought to you from the banks of a forbidden paradise, in a sleepy Cambridgeshire village. James Armstrong managed to get permission to film on this exclusive lake, and he and Elliott enjoy some action from the gnarliest carp around!

Well this was an experience, our first-ever Welsh session! We pointed the cars west, heading for the urban sprawl of Cardiff, to join Elliott’s good friend, Dave Robinson on the notorious Wharf fishery - one of the undisputed jewels in the crown for Welsh carpers. Dave was in the middle of a mamm...

This Session film is a beast, filled with action from big carp, right from the get-go. We were very privileged to be invited to fish a special Cotswold syndicate with Baitworks supremo, Mark Bryant, and the resulting 36 hours or so were waaaaay beyond our wildest dreams! The lake was fascinating,...

This might just be the craziest-looking zig rig that you’ve seen for ages! Nonetheless, Elliott Gray reckons that it’s got excellent potential for nicking a bite when all seems lost! If you can get past the fact it looks like a catfish rig, then you might well catch loads on it! Here’s how to tie…

Elliott Gray and Tom Stokes go head to head at day-ticket Mecca, Linear Fisheries, with the winner taking the bragging rights, and £200 for the charity of their choice! The fascinating Hardwick-Smiths lake provides the challenge for two lads who don’t spend too much time on day-ticket lakes these...

With the spring sunshine finally arriving it's time to get excited, the carp are going to be waking up, getting caught, and Elliott's tough winter campaign could end with massive carp he's been searching for... Or it could all go wrong, as the threat of Coronavirus puts everything in doubt! This ...
