This is a brand new
book about Tony's love of carp fishing, and how
that love has grown over the last forty years, since his
first ever carp capture in 1967. It does not pretend to
be an instructional book, although there is plenty of
useful information within these pages,
but it does certainly hope to be inspirational.
Tony takes us through the early years on various waters,
until that magical day in 1984 when he caught his first
twenty pounder.
The next target, a thirty pounder, follows in 1996 and
then, in 2003, the first forty pounder. As well as that,
a trip to France results in an unforgettable encounter
with a 58lb monster .
Within these pages, Tony invites you to look back with
him over a lifetime's carp fishing, and share the highs
and lows, the disappointments and successes, and some of
the lighter moments along the way. This is a book you
will not want to put down.
Tony's graphic writing will transport you to the banks
of windswept gravel pits and atmospheric, secluded
estate lakes. |
It will make you
tingle with anticipation as an alarm screeches out its
warning, and make the hairs on your neck bristle as you
read the account of the spooky happenings on the banks
of Redmire Pool. It will allow you to share in the sheer
euphoria as another huge carp is safely engulfed in the
landing net.
The Little Egret Press are privileged and delighted that
Tony has agreed to share his experiences of a lifetime
of carp fishing within these pages. We confidently
predict, that it will attain the same cult status as
Tony's previous books. |
