About this deal

Stick the kettle on and reminisce, watching old history fish like the Yateley North Lake’s Bazil, and the Car Park Lake’s Heather The Leather; two of the most famous carp to have ever swum in our waters.

The book covers Terry's exploits from his early Yateley days, Wraysbury and a new British record, the "secret" mere, right up until his capture of "two tone" from Conningbrook at over fifty pounds. There, they are darker with less definition and shades of pinkish-purple often appearing where there should be blue or green.

The outstanding lists of accolades that Terry Hearn has already earned bear testimony to this young angler's exceptional carp fishing ability.
