Autumn Equinox Issue
Have any of you ever slipped a disc? If you have, then you will know exactly how I am feeling, having just done mine. God knows how, but slip it has, and I'm in agony. The only thing that has cheered me up is putting this month’s Big Carp together, as I have been looking forward to this one since chatting to Ches Boughen on Facebook about his incredible results at Bundy's Pit and seeing some of the stunning carp he has been catching. This month’s cover story and 21-page article is part 1 of his adventures, prepare to be entertained.
This month Ollie Gurr takes us on a journey to the legendary Fox Pool, a water steeped in history and containing some incredible looking carp. This is the story of his campaign and the tremendous success he had during his time on the venue. Next up this issue is Shane Picken with an account of the capture of his target fish, Baby Baz, from the superb fishery, Tyram Hall. No easy capture this one due to the nature of the pit and the pressure from other determined anglers. Robert Mitchell's tale this month is a common one these days. Robert saw a picture of a huge black beast, and from that minute, every waking minute he thought of nothing else – only that that fish must be on his mat soon. Two years of blood, sweat and tears finally came good when at last the beast was tamed. This is a story for true Big Carp hunters everywhere – a story we can all relate to.
