Carp fishing tips and theories is the author`s third book, the first two being `From gudgeon to carp` and `More carp fishing`. Steve's first two books described the journey through his angling life, but this book is completely different. It is crammed full of tips and theories about the sport, which he has accumulated in over 50 years of angling.Steve has not sought publicity or fished the high profile circuit waters, preferring instead to fish at quieter low-stock venues, but has caught some stunning carp over the years including a personal best English common carp of 42 lbs.8 oz. and a personal best mirror carp of 48 lbs.6 oz.No secrets have been held back and amongst all these tips and theories the reader cannot fail to find something that will help them to put more carp on the bank. The two chapters on rigs and hook-baits will be of particular interest to most readers, and are well worth the purchase price for those sections alone.
