This is Peter Mohan's autobiographical account of his life in angling, mainly in pursuit of carp.

Peter has written many fictional short fishing stories and two of these, written especially for this book in January 2013, are included. There is also a section on his ideas and opinions on modern carp fishing, some good true stories from his fishing life and a chapter on his other interests and his life outside angling." Contents include:- Part one: Autobiography - Starting to fish; National service in the RAF; The birth of the British Carp Study Group; A momentous year; Doubles galore; The carp organisations; The Carp Anglers Association; The background to Cypry; Some winter tales; Part two: Miscellany; Part three: The storyteller.
