Well, the title says it all really as the mag is jam-packed full of some great winter content, headlined by a very COOL Alan Blair! Well, his hands may feel like blocks of ice, but we expect he’s got that warm feeling inside as he checks off his bucket list shot of holding an awesome carp with the snow-capped Alps in the background – SIMPLY MEGA!

Oz Holness is another angler renowned for doing it all year round and in this month’s Inside The Mind feature, he delves deep into his thoughts on winter bait application – this is a must-read for both experienced big fish anglers and newcomers alike!

Speaking of founts of knowledge (and British Record Holders!), we also met up with carp legend Lee Jackson who spilled the beans with some of his finest game changing realisations in Eureka Moments.

Despite the cold conditions we also managed some fine live action too, joining Lauren Stanford in session at Manor Farm Lakes and challenging Outlaw Pro’s Russell Webb to a 48-Hour Challenge.

There’s all this and so much more, so get stuck in and make this winter special!
