‘Fine line to lunacy’.

[Tim Marks]

The second volume of Tom Bankes’ trilogy on carp fishing has just been published.

’Fine line to lunacy’ is the follow up to ‘Sticklebacks to throwing sticks’.

It is a fascinating insight into the mindset of one of the best carp anglers of his generation.

It covers more of his experiences at Savay (he owns the place) and his campaign at Conningbrook.
Highly recommended to those that fish/have fished for carp.

I should declare an interest as I know Tom and have fished (a lot !) on some of his waters.

Great title too !

 

[Joe Winstanley]

I enjoyed his first book. It took me a chapter or two to get used to his style of writing though. Obviously an incredibly gifted angler.

Reading the second one at the moment and really enjoying it

I emailed him a couple of times after reading the first one. Seems a nice fella!

 

[Richard Parsons]

Thanks Tim - I've never fished for carp specifically but really admire accomplished anglers who write well. Will have a look!

Hi men,

I upset him by sending him a polite request via txt to join Savay after writing a introduction letter , that's old fashioned eh . I heard that the dayticket carpark was being shut , but I had a solution that I thought could suit both of us , obviously not . Some you win
