Green boards, upper board and spine titled in gilt. Unobtrusively corner-bumped else fine unread copy in dust-wrapper. "Over 400 pages of 'Original Thought' b…y the greatest angling thinkers this country has ever known make this the book that every carp angler regardless of experience will want to own. A unique piece of carp angling history with superb photography throughout. There is a well known old English saying that 'two heads are better then one' when it comes to solving a problem! It was with that saying at the back of my mind that in 1991 I came up with the idea of the Rotary Letter. Not that it was a totally original idea however, since the likes of Dick Walker and his friends had a very similar thing going many years ago. I just suddenly found myself with the greatest angling minds at my disposal; the equivalent of the Mensa of carp fishing minds, the UK's top thinking anglers, and I was quick to make use of this huge pot of knowledge. These few were my original 'rotarians' - Rod Hutchinson, Kevin Maddocks, Jim Gibbinson, Steve Allcott, Zenon Bojko and me of course. Who could argue that I'd got the creme de la creme of original thinking? Funnily enough this 'meeting of minds' happened a couple more times in the next 25 years as editor and owner of Big Carp magazine, and each time I resurrected the Rotary Letter again." The book has contributions from eighteen of the finest carp anglers around. .

Told in his own words, this is the story of Albert Romp's fishing career. "One of carp angling's characters and founder member of the Savay syndicate - the 'Looney Rota' was named so because of him. Sally the carp was named by him when he caught the country's biggest ever 'winter caught' common, many moons ago, and for a while Sally was the world's best-known carp. Inventor of the unhooking mat, Albert rocked the angling world a decade later by smashing the record brace with two huge spawny monsters from the North Bay. Pioneer of Cassien, the rivers Lot, Seine and Yonne and Bulgaria, Albert is a seasoned traveller, but his heart has always been on the banks of Savay. Now here's your chance to learn all about this iconic angler from his early beginnings at Furnace, Chobham and Pippingford, fishing alongside the icons of the seventies - Hutchinson, Little, Middleton and Maddocks in the Colne Valley, always with long-time fishing buddy, Bob Baker."

The content of the books in this series will be a mixture of articles from the archives of Big Carp, life histories of famous anglers and original articles specially commissioned for the series." Told in his own words, this is the story of Steve Briggs' fishing career. Briggs' career as a serious carp angler began with a 27lb 12oz fish at Brooklands, which would have been his first 20lb+ capture, and a hard to beat personal best, had the fish not been foul-hooked. The frustration of this, and probably a sneaking sense of guilt which turns up here and there in the text, spurred Briggs on to beat this near-miss legitimately. In his first season in the Darenth Valley, he caught four thirties "a feat unheard of at the time" and went on to explorehundreds of waters at home and abroad in search of huge carp; Belgium, Holland, Morocco, Portugal, Lake Raduta, South Africa, Rainbow, the St. Lawrence, Lake Ontario, Austria, and elsewhere. "In fact, he has caught carp of over 50lbs from five different countries. Being the only angler in the world to do this is his claim to fame." Steve Briggs was one of the pioneers of Lac St. Cassien, and his book Cassien .and Beyond, is profitably read in conjunction with this autobiography. Cassien .and Beyond, our stock no. 25426, reduced from GBP 30.00 to GBP 9.95. This first edition has an incorrect ISBN (9780951512715) printed within the book. The correct ISBN (9780951512777) is printed on the rear dust-wrapper flap. PREVIOUS PRICE GBP 24.95.

Colour photographs, b/w illustrations by Gareth Fareham, colour maps of the lakes. Black boards, upper board and spine titled in gilt. Mint in dust-wrapper. "The Ya…teley Complex and its famous carp are known by every carp angler in the country and probably most of the world for that matter. Although they have never produced a record carp, Bazil, Heather, Jumbo and their mates have been pursued by the UK's top carp anglers for over fifty years. Think of any famous carp angler in the last half-century and you can bet your life he's trodden Yateley's sacred grounds. Some only fished the odd season; others have spent a good part of their lives in pursuit of these legendary carp. They would all tell you that Yateley is a very special place. It has that unique vibe that very few carp waters aspire to. Why? Well it's a combination of factors: beautiful surroundings, peace, awesome scaly beasts with a reputation for being difficult to put on the mat, a great camaraderie within the syndicate and a chance to become part of England's great carp heritage are just some of the reasons. Yateley meant different things to different people: to some it was a way of life, to others an obsession, but for certain no one that fished Yateley ever took catching its residents lightly. This book compiled by Alan Cooper and [Rob Maylin] represents just a fraction of Yateley's history; it would have taken ten volumes and not two to include every angler who had achieved a personal best or goal. What we have tried to do is encapsulate the essence of this special complex. We have experts on the stockings and the early years and chapters from the anglers who caught these legends at their best weights. "Each lake has its own introduction written by Alan, and there are beautiful maps and drawings to accompany every lake on the complex. We have also tried to include every carp that ever lived at Yateley - not an easy task, but one we have taken pleasure in achieving. Not every famous angler who ever set foot on Yateley is mentioned here, but most are." PREVIOUS PRICE GBP 29.95.

The content of the books in this series will be a mixture of articles from the archives of Big Carp, life histories of famous anglers and original articles specially commissioned for the series." "Ritchie is without doubt one of big carp fishing's true legends. He dominated the seventies and eighties catching more 35lb-plus carp than anyone of that era. Propelled into stardom in the early eighties with the capture of the North Lake Forty [Bazil], two pounds over the official British record [which he refused to claim, maintaining that Chris Yates was the true record holder], he became a household name and soon had a weekly column in the Angling Times chronicling his exploits at Lake Cassien. Here is your chance to know everything there is to know about this great angler, in his own words, with extracts from his own secret diaries and many never before published photographs from the golden age of carp fishing."

The books in this series will be a mixture of articles from the archives of Big Carp, life histories of famous anglers and original articles specially commissioned for the series." In his own words, Dave Lane tells the story of his fishing career."His early days on the Chichester gravel pits gave Dave just the edge he needed when he concentrated on the Colne Valley pits, Harefield and Pit 4, but it was Wraysbury and Horton that put him in the record books, catching more forties that any Englishman had ever caught in a season, and his first fifty pounder, Mary. This fifth volume of the Legends series has much previously unknown material and many, many pictures never before published. Now's your chance to sit back and hear the full story of Dave's amazing carp life for the first time."

ALL UK PARCELS SENT TRACKED! ALL OVERSEAS PARCELS SENT AIRMAIL, TRACKED! (S/hand, Hardcover, 2013). 2013 1st edition. Large 4to (215 x 305mm). Pp287 [numbered 305-592]. Colour photographs, b/w illustrations by Gareth Fareham, colour maps of the lakes. Black boards, upper board and spine titled in gilt. Near fine in slightly used… dust-wrapper. Signed by Rob Maylin. "The Yateley Complex and its famous carp are known by every carp angler in the country and probably most of the world for that matter. Although they have never produced a record carp, Bazil, Heather, Jumbo and their mates have been pursued by the UK's top carp anglers for over fifty years. Think of any famous carp angler in the last half-century and you can bet your life he's trodden Yateley's sacred grounds. Some only fished the odd season; others have spent a good part of their lives in pursuit of these legendary carp. They would all tell you that Yateley is a very special place. It has that unique vibe that very few carp waters aspire to. Why? Well it's a combination of factors: beautiful surroundings, peace, awesome scaly beasts with a reputation for being difficult to put on the mat, a great camaraderie within the syndicate and a chance to become part of England's great carp heritage are just some of the reasons. Yateley meant different things to different people: to some it was a way of life, to others an obsession, but for certain no one that fished Yateley ever took catching its residents lightly. This book compiled by Alan Cooper and [Rob Maylin] represents just a fraction of Yateley's history; it would have taken ten volumes and not two to include every angler who had achieved a personal best or goal. What we have tried to do is encapsulate the essence of this special complex. We have experts on the stockings and the early years and chapters from the anglers who caught these legends at their best weights. "Each lake has its own introduction written by Alan, and there are beautiful maps and drawings to accompany every lake on the complex. We have also tried to include every carp that ever lived at Yateley - not an easy task, but one we have taken pleasure in achieving. Not every famous angler who ever set foot on Yateley is mentioned here, but most are." .

"Whereas the Rotary Letter Volume 1 was written largely whilst I was fishing in the Colne Valley rubbing shoulders and bouncing ideas off the Savay and Harefield anglers, Volume 2 was spawned when I resurrected it some time later having moved valleys to the Black Water Valley, this time fishing the notoriously difficult Yateley complex in the thought provoking company of the one and only Terry Hearn. The letter also evolved in its composition. The birth of the 'Rotary Letter Live' was upon us. Whereas previously the letter was only posted in the mail, social get-togethers either on the bank or at my house brought a whole new meaning to 'pooling ideas' and with several of us together the ideas flowed. RL Live was not restricted to Yateley either - Sutton, the Grand Union Canal even the mighty Colnemere played host to its contributors. This is a script that every carp angler, regardless of experience, should read again and again; there are years' worth of knowledge condensed into these 300 pages." The ISBN printed on the rear dust-wrapper flap is actually that of Bait and Baiting Strategies published a few months earlier and by the same author. .
