"Carp Addiction is a book about a man who has been obsessed with carp fishing since his boyhood, where fortunately he was mentored by a couple of experts at the lakes he fished, with whom he still remains friends today. It was not long before he was catching a few larger fish and moving on to better waters. Since those early years on Horton Kirby he has gone on to fish such places as: Walthamstow, Redmire, Sutton, The Manor, Korda, Birch Grove, amongst others, and has fished several places in France. He has also fished in Canada. His statistics speak volumes - eleven UK forties including a personal best mirror at over 47lb and two different commons over 40lbs. His French personal bests are a common of over 72lb and a mirror of over 60lb. He was voted 'Carp Angler of the Year' in 2006 and is proud to be a member of the British Carp Study Group, in which he was enrolled some twelve years ago. Unlike many successful carp anglers of today, he works full time and has only ever been able to fish weekends, evenings and holidays but his 'addiction' to catching carp has never diminished in the thirty or so years he has followed his passion." .
