Total Carp Magazine May 2013 Back Issue

Don’t miss the May issue of Total Carp – the app for the UK’s biggest-selling carp fishing magazine!
Inside the bumper issue you’ll find stacks of features, each designed to help you keep catching plenty of carp throughout May and beyond. All this, plus more than 20 pages of the latest tackle and bait items that’ll get your juices flowing.
Cover star Lewis Read bags a 30-pounder while at day-ticket big-fish water Sandhurst, while Tom Maker visits another day-ticket Mecca, Linear Fisheries’ Brasenose Lake, and absolutely takes it apart. Check out Lewis’ and Tom’s tactics, put a few of them into your carp fishing and you too could soon be enjoying great sessions on a day-ticket lake near you.
If you’re feeling a bit lazy, or don’t have the luxury of loads of spare time, Alan Blair has just the trick. Alan’s ‘Lazy Floater’ fishing not only takes the effort out of targeting carp on the surface, but it’s absolutely devastating, to boot. Find out how it’s done in this issue.
Big-name regulars Ian Chillcott and, exclusively, Jim Shelley continue their tales of how they target and catch carp month in, month out, while another of the biggest names in the game, Dave Lane, has the answers to some common carp fishing conundrums.
In our tackle section, we begin a brand-new series called Six Of The Best – kicking off with an in-depth test of half a dozen marker rods; essential items in the modern carp angler’s armoury. There are eight retention slings in our Buyer’s Guide page and then loads of new products reviewed throughout. Plus, be sure not to miss Used & Abused, where our lads get down and dirty with some great items, out on the bank, in proper fishing situations.
All this and much, much more, only in the May issue of the Total Carp magazine app... enjoy!
