It’s a Summer Scorcher!!
Summer Traps and Edges Issue!!
As I write this month’s editorial we are experiencing a heatwave across the UK. High pressure is putting the carp off the feed, several lakes are closed for spawning, and the best chance of a bite during the day is probably ‘off the top’.
A perfect time then to publish Big Carp’s summer traps and edges issue!!
Our expert team are set to give you some sound advice based upon their combined years of experience so you can put a few fish on the bank at this, one of the most difficult times of the year.
You’ve only got to look on Facebook – a month ago it was post after post of personal bests and late spring lumps, but now there are 75% fewer captures. Why? High pressure, low oxygen and spawning. In fact it’s one thing after another, all making these hot periods unproductive. But it’s still possible to catch if you know what you are doing, as our experts will demonstrate.
Firstly consistent all-rounder Rick Golder tells us how to beat the pressure, Ed Betteridge gives you all his secret weapons when starting a new campaign, and Steve Briggs’ summer tactics will give you all the edges you need to stack the odds against the carp.
Between them, this month’s theme ‘Summer Edges’ is well and truly covered.
