This is a hugely entertaining work of charm and depth that is without doubt the pick of this year's crop.
From the Publisher
This wonderful hardback book chronicles the carp fishing exploits of high profile carp fisherman and writer, Paul Selman, over a fifteen year period. There are in-depth chapters on many of England's most famous waters, including such waters as Redesmere, Patshull, Darenth, Harefield and The Mangrove. But this is not just a mere technical book about how to catch carp. It is a very funny and superbly entertaining book that carpfolk everywhere will want to read again and again. Many readers have told us that this has been the most entertaining carp book they have ever read. That doesn't surprise us!
Brilliantly illustrated by Pete Curtis the book features unique water maps, atmospheric drawings and Carptoons. As Tim Paisley of Carpworld says, "It instructs, informs, entertains, amuses, saddens, concerns and - most importantly - involves the reader. It is everything a carp fishing book should be, and I can recommend it unreservedly." This is without doubt a modern angling classic which anyone who is serious about carp fishing will want to own. The second edition has been limited to 1,000 hardback copies only with no further re-prints planned. Order now to avoid disappointment!

Fasinating!
This is a set of chapters on Paul Selman's learning curve in catching more & more and bigger & bigger carp.
Full of detail and important technical know-how but also a great story. Put them together and you have a classic from one of the leading carp anglers and writers in the country.
Every angler will learn from this book. The enthusiasm for his sport shines through and the details he gives make the jigsaw puzzle of how to catch these fish much clearer.
