Published to tie in with a BBC2 television series, this is the story of the piscatorial adventures of Chris Yates and Bob James, accompanied by film-maker Hugh Miles. With high hopes the team set off across Britain: to Redmire Pool, where they catch some monster carp; to Scotland's Spey, for trout and salmon; to the Kennet, where Bob catches a near-3lb roach and, soon after, lands a brace of spectacular pike. Their riverside banter and differing techniques offer insights into fish, fishing, and what fires people with a passion for angling.

The Secret Carp

Yates, Christopher

"A lucky soul indeed, is how Edward Miller, who spent 46 years in the gun trade, describes anyone infected with 'goose fever'.In this lively memoir, he conveys the passion for wildfowling that gets sane people out of bed long before first light, to walk miles across dangerous tidal flats in the depths of a winter dawn, to lie flat in damp sand for hours, waiting for that evocative beat of wings to pass overhead.Every chapter in Geese! is full of interest, amusement and advice. Camouflage, the techniques of goose-calling, how to recognise flight lines, choice of gun, what to wear, where to stay, how to behave and how to avoid overshooting, are all topics covered, right down to cooking wildfowl, including a mouth-watering stuffing of wild mushrooms and seashore blackberries.The instructional index at the end of the book is an invaluable instant reference for the wildfowler."
