Beauties and Beasts
As spring finally breaks through one of the worst winters on record (with record snowfall, record rainfall and my bivvy resembling a blinking waterfall), I am bringing you some sunshine in the shape of this month’s banging Big Carp with a lineup fine-tuned to get the juices flowing and you grabbing the rods and heading bankside.
The cover story is about an angler who has graced our pages for almost 30 years with his consistent catches and unweaning enthusiasm, Jerry Hammond. His ‘Carp Addict’ pieces are the star of recent copies of Free Line, and this month we have the exclusive tale of his latest pursuit of the largest. Years of hard work and dedication came to fruition recently when Vinnie’s largest resident finally went over the cord at a truly epic weight! Adding this most sought after resident made Jerry’s portfolio even more impressive. Massive congratulations from all at Big Carp and Free Line magazines.
