He even combined the two styles particularly effectively. Thinking back to 25 years ago, I…
How we long for those summer days to return, watching the cruising carp, slapping those mozquitos as they penetrate the follicle as the suns rays bring the tranquil evening surface to life. The high-pressure days can be so hot that we silently hope for a splash of Scotch mist to cool the prickly skin, absolutely stunning summer conditions, but not necessarily advantageous to feeding activity or big hits!

How to become the ‘luckiest fisherman on earth!’: Source: Tim Richardson, author of Big Carp Bait Secrets Have you ever wondered why one ‘lucky guy’ seems to catch the biggest fish again and again, while the majority of other fishermen just seem to get the average catches?
