Such inspiring writing. His words 'Somewhere in the undergrowth of the impossible' had me staring out from the page in amazement. Fennel's writing is pure poetry. Fennel's writing flows un-hurried without overly romanticising each point, and the research is thorough; from the first sentence I was thinking, 'this lad can write!' It's informative and very refreshing. A magnificent adventure and call to arms for us to pursue our passions and protect that which matters most. This book is destined to be an angling classic.

Author Information

Fennel Hudson is a traditional angler who seeks the timeless atmosphere of overgrown and forgotten pools. He caught his first wild-like carp at the age of 15. This inspired him to dedicate twenty years to the pursuit of ancient, medieval, strains of carp. The quest led him to discovering some of the UK's oldest bloodlines, and brought him into contact with other wild carp enthusiasts such as Chris Yates and Mike Winter. Together they found a world of imagination and adventure, with wild carp at its centre. This gave Fennel a unique perspective of the true beauty (and humour) of life, which he shares by reminding us to 'Stop - Unplug - Escape - Enjoy'.
