Description
Fishing for wild carp is about adventure, history, atmosphere, mystery and emotion: searching for and discovering secret waters and forgotten strains of ancient fish. Wild Carp captures this aplenty, describing Fennel’s 20-year quest to find the oldest strains of carp in the UK.
Fennel writes… “In pursuing my dream I was able to find not only the ultimate fish, but the authentic interpretation of myself. The event at the Monastery Pond, as described in this book, was to change my life forever. You could say that without this event, I wouldn’t have created Fennel’s Priory or become the man I am today. But this is a fishing book. Very much my ‘magnum opus’ and largest book to date, it’s my best attempt at capturing, first hand, why people go fishing.”
