History from England, Canada, USA & France.
"Paul Hunt Owner / Guide"
Paul is from London England and he has guided clients from all over the world.
Founder and owner of CCH, and your Host & Guide with 26+ years experience on the St. Lawrence River and the longest running carp guide in Canada.
He has been guiding on the St. Lawrence since 1997 making him the longest running carp guide in Canada and on the St. Lawrence river! In the early days of Paul's guiding he pioneered and sought out the very best fishing swim's along certain area's of the river, and during these early days he admiringly named some of the swims he fished most regularly such as. The Pines - The Silver Birch etc...Over the years the carps locations and patterns have changed somewhat in the river and Paul has made sure that he is and will always, be on top of the best carp fishing in the St. Lawrence River, and now he fish's new swims all around. One of his most memorable catches is a 7 day holiday (days only) on the river which they banked a whopping 6 tons of carp with 2 over 45lb to 49lb and a 50lb 9oz, 108-30s & 8-40s, 45-20s, 113 under 20s, all on video!.
Canada, BC
Paul decide to try his hand at a bit of Sturgeon fishing on the Fraser river and was able to bank this whopping 800 lb, 10ft monster and 5.5ft round landed it in 3 hours. Paul was able to bank 5 other Sturgeon over 150lbs which made for a very successful 4 day fishing excursion on the Fraser. The next 5 trips Paul landed Sturgeon over 9ft long 500lb.

The Frist Dream Lakes, France
This lake was 40+ acres and stacked up with weed, a very hard venue to comprehend for any angler! & fish stock very few fish but of good size. Paul put himself to the test to help try and figure out the new venue, it's features and the fish that swim it's waters & fish to 61lb had been caught so Paul's hopes of landing a biggie were high! & Paul took one of his biggest fish of the trip with this lovely specimen on the left weighing in at 39lb 8oz, just that tiny bit away from the magical 40 mark (the scales never lie!) & another 39lb and a good few 20's were also caught from the lake.
The Manor Essex, England
As you all know, Manor Farm is one of the hardest waters in Essex producing some amazing fish to those that can handle it! & Paul landed the famous & 'Amphibian' the biggest resident of the lake weighing in at 42lb 4oz....not bad for a first English forty! & Within six weeks, Paul had landed the majority of the biggest fish at the Manor which all fell to a newly designed rig at that time.
Darenth Big Lake, England
Darenth was the place that caught the heart of your guide host Paul Hunt. Not surprising really that he spent an amazing 11 years there & at the time, Darenth held many of the biggest UK carp in it's waters & Paul still produced a lot of the big named, resident fish: 'Stumpy, Small Head, which went missing for two years and everyone assumed this fish had died was caught at 37lb 8oz by Paul biggest ever weight at that time, 'Fully Scaled' 'Lumpy' which was the biggest fish that ever came out of Darenth at the time Paul also fished Darenth Tip lake and produced "Scar Bar' and others.
