Make This Autumn Special
It’s the Autumn Special and we’ve got a whole host of features this month for you to sink your teeth into, whether that’s our regular contributors who you know and love, or the selection of interesting features to both entertain and inform. Whether you’re looking to catch your first, next or biggest carp, this magazine will no doubt have something for you.
Our cover star this month needs little introduction having contributed since the conception of Total Carp, and each month Ian Russell takes one of you, the readers, out for a tuition to cover everything needed to excel on the bank. Feeling inspired? Simply get in touch and you might just find yourself on the next Troubleshooter!
We’ve got loads of other big names too – Oz Holness talks watercraft, Dave Lane gets creative with a new rig and Ian Chillcott reflects on how PVA changed his fishing forever and can change yours too. We also have some top class live action including an action packed session on Elsons with Luke Vallory, plus an unbelievable Road Trip with Alan Blair, which ultimately ends in a search for the largest fish that swims in the British Isles – serious Blue Planet stuff!
There’s all of this and so much more, which will no doubt provide anyone looking to get out on the bank this autumn with plenty of food for thought!
WHAT’S HOT THIS MONTH…
INSIDE THE MIND
It’s the finale of Oz Holness’ stimulating Inside The Mind series, and in this instalment Oz talks about perhaps the most important topic of all - Watercraft. It’s that special sauce that makes the difference between an angler that is good and one that’s great, and everything you need to know is on page 20.
RED LETTER DAYS
Ever had a session which was just off the scale? Well, that’s exactly what happened to Dan Hawkes when he headed to Chilham Mill for a session while filming Ridgemonkey’s latest Ruggage range. Find out exactly what Dan did on page 29 that led to the catch of a lifetime!
WICKED TUNA
On page 70, Alan Blair’s Road Trip steps up a gear as he heads to Cornwall with a group of like-minded friends. From stalking to beach casting and rivers to the open seas! The trip eventually culminated in a fight like no other, as Alan and friends battled it out with one of the THE BIGGEST fish in the British Isles!
