Carp-Talk Magazine 1222 Vorige editie

This week’s special issue of Carp-Talk (issue 1222) is available to download now! Inside you will find 100 of the very best open access carp venues the UK has to offer, along with the usual mix of catch reports, news stories and features.

Linear Fisheries’ syndicate water, Gaunts Lake, gave up its largest resident this week in the form of Uncle Albert at 50½lb. Baden Hall’s Big Mirror was banked at 47½lb, as well as Yateley North Lake’s Snubnose at 46lb. The Essex Manor continued its early spring form with two more forties gracing the banks, and Cambridgeshire big fish venue, Holme Fen also produced a 45-pounder, along with several thirties. It seems the big girls are waking up as our UK top ten is dominated by one fifty and nine forties this week.

Aside from the Open Access Special, we have a number of exciting features in this week’s issue. Top carp match anglers, Wayne Mansford and Ryan Need are put under the spotlight in our interview section while Chris Cox looks back on a memorable time he enjoyed on a shallow pit. Haydn Hoskins reveals how to maximise your opportunities this spring, while Adam Biddulph reflects on one of his best every sessions on Brasenose 2.
