What's in the issue

New PBs for Spooner and Dovey! In our exclusive interview with this loveable duo, they talk catching seventy-pounders, really special carp and what it’s like to fish the hardest lake in the world. In How-To this month we have a special ‘Basic But Effective’ feature, where we look at, amongst other things, stringer tricks and reveal a 50p rig that’s more effective than a £5 one! We cover Nigel Sharp’s next-level baiting-pole tricks and short-session pro, Lewis Read, explains how to be successful on worknights. Finally, in Hardware, we have a ‘Best-In-Class’ special: buy it once, use it forever!
