Lester was a member of "The Carpike Specimen Group" and only too happy to point me in the direction of Stanborough Lake, in Welwyn Garden City, where he, and his mates, had enjoyed a fair degree of success in past seasons. Perhaps of more immediate concern is the catastrophic impact Lionfish can have on fragile marine ecosystems.

Following this same idea in a high pressure they are more suspended in the water, and as much as i hate the drop-shot its a very viable rig for high pressure situations. In addition, the lionfish has fins shaped like fans, and they rapidly move through the water by waving their fins. There are carp swimming around in that venue which are every bit as "wild" as any out on the flatlands. The only other tweak I managed was after a chance meeting with Keith Sellick, proprietor of Middlesex Angling Centre. I was well aware of what Rod Hutchinson, Geoff Kemp and Duncan Kay were able to offer the, ever growing, number of carp anglers seeking an easy option.Four twenties, including three in successive casts (November 9th 1983) and a string of back up doubles ensured that when I landed my PB (23 lbs 14 oz) I walked away happy in the knowledge that my efforts had been worthwhile. In 1984 that fish was still a very respectable weight on any specimen angler's PB list and I was free to chase new targets, a burden lifted from my shoulders. Also the bait chapter is interesting, to see how many things those pioneers were able to try to be step ahead of others. Afron Summers, 39, was fishing with his 75-year old father on the Chesil Beach in Dorest in the hopes of landing a triggerfish.

What possible edge can I discover, when the majority of modern anglers have access to exactly the same information resource as me? I suggested The New Scientist might offer a greater chance of getting some better informed, science based, reaction. There will never be a substitute for watercraft, or the ability to locate the fish before setting your traps, but understanding the impact of angling pressure makes these aspects that little bit more straightforward when there's been an awful lot of water flowed under that bridge! Really hard fighting fish in the weir pool then had another 3 perch on the tip all wing around a pound!If I've picked up on anything, at all, then modern-day carp anglers are lazy, happy to allow others to do the bait preparation and simply use it straight out of the packet, plus or minus the commercial glugs, dips or "Goo". Although equipment chapters are now days a bit outdated, the rest of the book is still awesome after so many years, it is incredible. I have to admit that I'm really looking forward to the coming months, as I resume my quest for that split cane thirty.

In a high pressure the fish will be much harder to find and ive found trying to get a reaction bite rather than a feeding bite will result in finding perch and will make your life a hell of a lot easier.
