joes carp tutorials
My name is Joe Turnbull and I have been angling since I was about 13. I first
found out about such an amazing beautiful pastime when my uncle took me to the
local river, armed with a small box of maggots and little bag of brown bread
crumb to use as ground bait. After that first encounter catching some good
roach, I was simply hooked and I had found something that I was quite good at.
From that first experience I went on to enter a few matches, however, I’ve never
really been competitive, so from there on I generally enjoyed my pleasure
fishing for all species, which has seen me venturing all around the country
angling at many different venues. After some years of allround specimen angling,
my one true love fell for carp angling, along with the wonder and amazement that
it holds. fishing-tv Why Bait?…Archie Braddock’s supplied a mix of herbs and
spices, along with Richworth and Rod Hutchinson that had a range of ‘off the
shelf’ boilies and flavourings. I was intrigued, as many people still are, by
being able to mix all sorts of concoctions and seeing if I could get a fish to
feed on it. After years of playing with baits and ingredients, a part of a life
long dream became a reality as I was given a monthly feature in the biggest and
longest running carp magazine, Carpworld and sister magazine, Crafty Carper.
Successful angling is all about consistency. If you get good at that, you're
more than half way there. carp-tuition Why carp angling tuition?…Over the last
couple of years or so I’ve been asked on many occasions about supplying some
kind of tuition service for carp angling but not really being the type to ‘blow
my own trumpet’ so to speak-I declined the idea for a while but then imagined
that it would actually be really nice to pass on my experience and knowledge
that I’ve gained over the years.
