CARP LIFE 2. By Mike Willmott.

2016 1st edition. Large 8vo (170 x 245mm). Pp464. Colour and b/w illustrations and photographs. Pictorial laminated boards in matching dust-wrapper.

Somerset-based bait expert Mike Willmott continues with his carping adventures. "This book is far more than a chronicle of [the author's] driving passion to catch carp. It's a detailed, revealing, informative and highly personal account of the way [he] sees the world, how he thinks, how he does what so few anglers can do, and how he's worked tirelessly to achieve every target he set himself." Chapters include: Making it happen; The journey continues; Quest for the King; Touching distance; Who dares wins; End of an era; Somewhere down the crazy river; Playing away; Food for thought; 50/50 vision, by Martin Finan; The magic of Frampton; The wind of change; Ups and downs; The eye of the tiger; Just the ticket; Divine intervention; Living the dream; A happy ending; And finally... A worthy successor to the first Carp Life.
