Last month I mentioned our Road Trip with Alan Blair and what a trip it turned out to be!
I’ll keep things brief but it was an action-packed 24 hours, the prize-winner Bob was an absolute gentleman and Alan properly pulled it out the bag – we really appreciated the effort that went into making this all happen!
There are many more great features in this issue, with some personal highlights being a successful in-session piece with ‘the Urban Myth’, Mr Terry Dempsey, and an action-packed Troubleshooter with Ian Russell at Albans Lakes.
Day-ticket anglers will be particularly happy with Elliott Gray’s Inside The Mind feature, as well as the awesome 32-page supplement we’ve put together with GoCatch.fish, highlighting its website and app, and the great selection of day tickets it offers.
So, whether it’s advice from your favourite big names, technical pieces for a successful autumn or just something to stoke the fires – you’re sure to find it all inside our Autumn Special issue!
