This month’s mag is headlined by all-round nice guy Lewis Read, a man who’s been in the thick of the carp scene for many years, an incredible mind when it comes to technical knowhow, and a dab hand at catching carp! Here he shares his Eureka Moments, those key game changers that really revolutionised the way he thinks about his fishing.

Also in this month’s mag is a newcomer to the pages of Total Carp, but someone who has been at the core of carp fishing throughout much of his life. Simon Crow will be taking on the reins of Big-Carp Mindset from Nigel Sharp, and in this first instalment he brings us up to speed on his approach and the goings on this year on his Lincolnshire syndicate. Simon is an out and out big-carp angler and I’m sure you’ll be just as keen as we are to see some of the awesome carp he catches this year, as well as picking up some top advice along the way.

There’s loads more big names too, sharing all manner of tips and technical knowhow to help you make the most of these next few months. In fact it really is a star-studded line-up this month, with Dave Lane, Ian Russell, Scott Lloyd, Kev Hewitt, Oli Davies, Henry Lennon, Oz Holness, Julian Cundiff, Matt Eaton, Loz East and more all contributing to the pages of this mag…

Add to this a 32-page supplement in collaboration with Nash and you know it’s not one to be missed!

EDITOR'S PICKS

EUREKA MOMENTS

BIG-CARP MINDSET *NEW SERIES*
New to the pages of Total Carp, but certainly not new to carp fishing – Simon Crow has long been around the circuit catching

some of the biggest carp going! This month sees the start of his new bimonthly series.

INSIDE THE MIND
Line lay – it’s a topic that many carp anglers wouldn’t even think twice about, but one that can seriously hamper your chances if you get it wrong! Matt Eaton’s a technical whizz on this stuff and lays out the fundamentals of what you need to know to get it right!

VENUE FOCUS
Loz East gives us the rundown of Old Mill Lakes in Market Rasen, one of the leading day-ticket fisheries of the north-east! With the premier invitation-only Birch, an intimate Willow lake and a high-stocked big-fish Oak Lake all to go at, there are so many big carp on this complex it’s frightening!

BOAT FISHING TIPS
Having been on many a trip to the Continent, Henry Lennon gives us the lowdown of getting the most from using a boat for carp fishing, without the need for going over the top on ridiculously expensive equipment. Got a foreign trip or new to boat use? This could be for you!
