Autumn Equinox Issue – a new era in online carp magazines.
The autumn equinox falls at the start of the last week of September, coincidentally when this issue of Big Carp hits the newsstands, and it’s basically the time of the year when the hours of daylight equal the hours of darkness. To the carp angler it signifies, in my opinion, one of the best times for catching carp.
It signifies the change in season from the summer as we head into winter. The duration of daylight becomes noticeably shorter and the temperature cools down considerably. I love this time of year; the fish are hungry and determined to stack on weight to carry them through the winter months, the lakes start to get less crowded, the leaves on the deciduous trees make awesome backdrops to the scenic shots I take, and most of those annoying insects like wasps and mozzies are on their way out.
I have put together a fantastic Autumn Carping issue for you this month… Where do I start? Del Ritchie is back for the third month on the trot with More Monks Madness. This guy knows how to catch them, that’s for certain, and here are his September highlights. If, like me, you love a big fully, then Jake Anderson’s campaign in the Stour Valley will be right up your street. But if it’s big commons that float your boat, then turn straight to Rob Allen’s capture of the Tatton Park monster – what a carp! If there’s one to give the Burghfield Common a run for its money, then this is the beast to do it.
