MONSTER CARP
by Tim Paisley
Steve Briggs & Thomas Duncan-Dunlop

2014 1st edition. Large octavo hardback, 319 pages.
Colour photographs throughout, brief bibliography, weight conversion table laid in.
Mint in dust-wrapper.

Lots of European venues that no one else is going to tell you about. Well worth the outlay.

"This astonishingly detailed and heavily researched book contains details of almost 700 x 70lb+ carp captures, including approaching 200 x 80lb+ carp. The main authors are big-carp anglers Thomas Duncan-Dunlop, Steve Briggs and Tim Paisley, but the support they have received from a number of others to make this a truly global appraisal of the big-carp scene has made Monster Carp a real treasure chest."

"In addition to the fascinating listings there are chapters with detailed coverage of the big-fish scene in the Benelux, Holland and Luxembourg (Alijn Danau); Germany, Austria and Hungary (Steve Briggs); Poland (Przemek Mroczek); Italy (Sandro di Cesare), Spain (Daniel Calleja), Croatia (Kris Kuri) and the UK (Chris Ball)."

"These are augmented by chapters focusing on the monster carp waters Les Graviers, Cassien, Rainbow, Les Teillatts, Raduta and Euro Aqua, plus a detailed round-up of the big-fish public inland seas and private commercial venues of France by Simon Crow. On top of all that there are some fascinating insights into the big-fish results of Alijn Danau, Arjen Uitbeijerse, Martin Locke, Steve Broad, Thomas Duncan-Dunlop, Eric Smith, Steve Briggs, Andy Chambers and Bill Cottam. This is an inspirational book which is both a historical record and an insight into how some of the top men in the game achieve their remarkable results. The end result is quite an achievement."

Please read these details...

UK POSTAGE is built in to the price. It costs £3.50 for the first book, and for the second; after that we refund you £2.00 for each and every book, provided you order them all at one go. We will combine separate orders, but you must contact us immediately to arrange this. If we have already dispatched one of your orders by the time you contact us, unfortunately, we cannot do anything about it.

£3.50 is included in the price of each book to cover postage. If you buy more than two books at the same time, we will refund you £2.00 on the 3rd book, plus £2.00 on each subsequent book: buy 6 books and we will give you £8.00 back, buy 12 books, and we will give you £20.00 back, for example. Refunds will be made only to the PayPal account or card number by which you paid.

PARCELS BELOW 2KG are sent by Royal Mail, and will normally be delivered by the postman, 3 - 5 days after despatch.

PARCELS OVER 2KG are sent by Royal Mail’s Tracked Service. A TRACKING NUMBER is provided with all such orders. The parcel will be delivered the NEXT WORKING DAY, or in some parts of the Scottish Highlands and Islands, Northern Ireland, Scilly, the Isle of Man, and the Channel Islands, the SECOND WORKING DAY.

OVERSEAS POSTAGE is charged by weight, at cost and is generally sent by Airmail. The postage quoted on this listing has been reduced by £3.50 to account for the £3.50 already included in the price of the book (as explained above).

US CUSTOMERS PLEASE NOTE! Airmail parcels entering the USA are inspected by HOMELAND SECURITY. This can include opening the mail sack. Parcels to US addresses can therefore be delayed and sometimes take up to four weeks. We must ask US customers to be very patient - we have now sent out many replacement parcels only to see the original arrive before the replacement. In our experience (30 years, tens of thousands of parcels), almost NO parcels are ever actually lost.

ALL CUSTOMERS, EVERYWHERE, please allow at least 14 days before contacting us to chase up your order.

(In the UK the Royal Mail will not declare a parcel lost & take action before 14 days has elapsed. Overseas, postal services vary in efficiency from country to country. The Irish and the Japanese post offices seem quite good, for example, the Germans less so, and South Africa the slowest by a long way.)

RETURNS are made under the terms of the UK Consumer Protection (Distance Selling) Regulations 2000 and eBay rules. IMPORTANT: If you are considering returning an item for any reason, you must contact us first to let us know you want to return your parcel. Returned items must be conscientiously re-wrapped, the easiest thing is to use the original packaging, providing this remains in good condition. Overseas customers considering returning an item, please get in touch with us in advance to discuss.
