"Probably best known for his highly successful fishing TV show 'Day Ticket' which is still being shown on some of the satellite channels [the author] was very fortunate to grow up in the Colne Valley which gave him access at an early age to fish some of the most 'hush hush' waters in the country and to fish for some of the countries most sought after and respected carp, for those of you that read Rob Maylin's Chapters on Springwood in his early books you will see where Trevor got his inspiration. Springwood and The Bird Lake are now known by those 'in the know'... but still secret waters to most of the country. This is a book that every angler will be able to relate to, its real, and reflects the true essence of carp fishing for the normal angler......not only that but its very funny too and will have you in stitches." Guest chapters by Richard Garner, Howard Beckley, Andy Bradnock and Paul Smythe.
