Rob Hughes and Simon Crows is good but the title escapes me

and a cheap one is "Modern Carp Fishing" by Fox

"tactical carp fishing" Cakey?

Tim Paisley's "To catch a carp" is pretty good

If you're new to carping Colin then I'd say have a look at Ian Chillcots book "Talking Carp", it explains everything in great detail... always look at online articles though, there's some gooduns and they're free /forum/smilies/wink_smiley.gif

Catch carp and tench by John Wilson would be a good first book Colin,not too exspensive either and it explains how to catch them on the float through to ledgering .
As the chaps say Frothey has a nice series which explain alot though .

Julian Cundiff wrote a couple of books, Practical Carp Fishing and Succesful Carp Fishing. They're getting on a bit but take you from the very basics up to landing, fish care and photographing. As they are oldish some of the rigs, baits etc are basic but I think they're worth a look. I picked both up at a boot fair for a pound I think. Hope this helps.

Why dont you invest in a day coaching with a Fishing coach who specialises in carp fishing.

Carp now and then by Rod Hutchinson and Carp fever by Kevin Maddocks.Gravel Pit Carp by Jim Gibbinson.

These are old by todays standards but the methods and advice make them a must read.They will also give you an invaluable insight into real carping before everything was done for you.

Hope this helps and good luck with your Carping
