"The long-awaited sequel to 1994's 'From The Bivvy' is finally here! For many anglers, carp fishing is simple really. Find a water, find the fish, and use a good bait and rig - game on. Well I suppose at the start that's all you need to concentrate on, and for many that's all they need to ever think about anyway. Inspired by Kevin Maddocks' book Carp Fever, in all honesty that is where it was for me, until one fateful day in 1986 when, as a young keenie, I wrote to the Carp Fisher editor at the time (one Tim Paisley), and my world was never the same again. Tim introduced me to the world of thinking, not copying, but it wasn't until his book, From The Bivvy in 1994 that I got it, really got it." Julian Cundiff.
