Episode Overview
In this concluding episode, Robson finds himself closer to home, yet his European fishing adventure offers a range of thrilling challenges. He begins his journey in the Azores, specifically on the island of Faial, where he aims to catch the esteemed blue marlin. However, ominous clouds loom on the horizon—will they disrupt his plans? Next, Robson travels to the Canary Islands to push his limits by sampling escolar, a snake mackerel known for causing severe illness in some eaters and banned in several nations. Despite the risks, locals relish this delicacy. Will Robson join their ranks? Finally, he heads to Spain's River Ebro, where the formidable wels catfish resides. This massive fish can reach lengths of ten feet and is exclusive to European waters. While Robson expertly catches 20-pound salmon, he faces a daunting challenge with these colossal creatures that can weigh 16 times more.
