The Obsessions Issue
What makes a man become obsessed with a carp? So much so that all he can think about is that fish. Rain or shine, summer and winter he leaves his loved ones at home to venture once again to the banks of his chosen lake, the battle field, where he hopes upon hope that this will be the session where his nemesis, his obsession falls at his feet. As carp anglers we have all felt the power, I know I have, it may be certain fish or even any member of the ‘A’ Team which drives us on but its a very strong feeling that we carp anglers cannot deny. It’s ruined relationships, caused marriages to break up and arguments in households for decades. Books have been named by it, I even had a bait range called the ‘Obsession’ range back in the 1980’s for those of you old enough to remember it! I have devoted this issue to some of the carp and carp waters that over the years have caused us to be obsessed. Although many of the old legendary carp have long since departed some of these waters there are still many which make a man leave home selfishly in pursuit of the ultimate prize. To be honest I could have chosen 50 lakes and as many sought after prizes, far too many for one publication, so here for you are just a cross section of Big Carp Obsessions.
