"It's all very well having the latest 'all-singing all-dancing rig' and this year's 'wonder bait' but using them effectively and at the prime time of year is another ballgame entirely. ...Effective seasonal combinations are a very diverse subject, and warm weather carping is very different to cold weather. This volume concentrates on warm weather fishing, and our collection of experts ...each divulge their own unique way of making sure they are top rods on their chosen venues. ...Seasonal tactics and techniques is a vast subject, which is why we have devoted two separate journals, one for spring/summer and one for autumn/winter. Use these two books in conjunction with Advanced Terminal Rigs, Bait and Baiting Strategies and Watercraft, and you will have the complete 'knowledge' for catching carp all year around."
