Total Carp Magazine February 2024 Vorige editie

While fishing conditions have been hard at times, with floods and a big freeze-up, we were never going to let that beat us and as such February’s Total Carp is another fantastic issue full of informative and inspirational content.

Headlining the issue is Scott Lloyd, one of the carp scene’s biggest characters and a serious force when it comes to catching big carp. In this issue he talks zig fishing, a tactic that you should be thinking about over the next few months. As the winter transitions into spring, fishing up in the water can be deadly… and sometimes the only way of catching them. We’ve also got more great tactical insights from the likes Matt Eaton, who runs through his in-depth thought process when it comes to rigs and more importantly whether to fish popped-up or on the deck. Luke Vallory also takes a brief interlude from his day ticket Quest (while most lakes are frozen or flooded) to run through his nine top tips for success on day-ticket waters in the colder months.

If you enjoy reading the live session style content, then we’ve got plenty of that too, despite the conditions we’ve faced. Tom Stokes took on the 48-Hour Challenge, heading to Berners Hall Fishery for the first time in truly baltic conditions. We also got out for a productive day session with Terry Dempsey down in Dartford. All of this, plus the regular contributors and a bumper gear section, makes for another brilliant magazine.

So, whether you’re looking to get out during these colder months or simply want to keep those embers burning, we hope you enjoy the February issue of Total Carp!
