Book excerpt: Carp anglers talk about watercraft all the time. But what exactly is that? Some would say it's applying understanding of the environment in which the carp lives and the fish itself to catch more of them. And how do we improve our watercraft? By studying how the behaviour of the carp changes as environmental variables fluctuate daily and seasonally. We can do this by spending time on the lake or river bank and by reading about it. Carp Fishing Science is unlike all other carp fishing books. It provides information which the angler can use in order to anticipate changes in the carp's behaviour, especially those related to nutrition and activity, therefore helping to improve the reader's watercraft. Jon Wood, marine biologist and experienced fish farm consultant, has written a book which looks at carp fishing from a very different point of view from all other publications; from that of the fish rather than the fisherman, which is really where it should be from. In Carp Fishing Science, he presents a distillation of more than two hundred scientific publications and has extracted the most valuable proven facts about the fish to allow the reader to know the animal in greater detail, modify strategies and put more fish on the bank. This book bridges a gap between that which has until now only been supposed and that which has been shown through scientific studies. The author delves into aspects of carp biology, fish physiology and environmental science in order to clarify some of the myths surrounding carp fishing and answers questions such as why and how carp feed, which substances have been shown to cause a positive feeding response to carp, how the fish uses each of its senses and how the nutritional requirements of the carp change through the year. If you are a carp angler, a carp producer, a bait maker, a fisheries student, or just someone who has always wanted to think like a fish, then this book should be in your collection.

Book excerpt: Although techniques and baits have changed over the years, the same questions are at the forefront of the carp angler's mind: Where are the fish? What's happening under the water? What bait should I use? This time Jon Wood has taken the science out of Carp Fishing Science in order to answer these and other questions about carp location, feeding & bait. What we are left with is pure and simple carp fishing aimed at improving the angler's grasp of these three concepts that are key to successful carp fishing. Any level of carp angler will benefit from the clear and enlightening contents of this publication which is sure to become one of the most talked about new titles.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As a group, carp provide 4 million metric tonnes of fish annually - over a quarter of all fish culture worldwide. For the first time, a book is available in English that concentrates solely on the carp as an economic rather than an ornamental fish with a panel of international experts producing a comprehensive, practical volume about carp production and management. Starting with a brief look at the biology of cyprinids, the book then discusses the methods and management of carp farming, from water quality to the economics of fish production in ponds. Novel methods to improve stock, including genetic engineering, are covered and case studies give added value to the text. As carp farming turns from traditional to intensive methods, farmers, researchers and technicians in industry will welcome this benchmark volume, which also is a valuable reference book for graduate and postgraduate students and lecturers in aquaculture.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Carp fishing is the biggest growth area in coarse fishing. Specimen carping takes a specialist approach that sees dedicated anglers going in search of the biggest carp to inhabit lakes, rivers and canals. Once considered a niche following that only appealed to a small hard-core group of fanatics, the popularity of carp fishing has grown - and continues to grow - at a frightening pace. An increasing number of tackle companies, fisheries and tackle shops now base their entire business around carp fishing specialization and the "bug" has spread beyond Britain into the whole of western, central and eastern Europe. This sister manual to Coarse Fishing manual will show the growing band of carping disciples how to catch them through over 500 illustrations and accompanying text.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cyprinids rank as one of the most commercially important groups of freshwater fishes and are exploited for many purposes; as a human food source, especially in Europe and Asia; as sport fish; and as ornamental fish for ponds and aquaria. Certain species are also cultured as bait fish and several of the small cyprinids such as the zebra fish have become internationally accepted laboratory models for toxicology testing and molecular research. A thorough understanding of cyprinid health and diseases is fundamental to the successful management and exploitation of these fishes for freshwater fisheries, pisciculture and ornamental productions. This practical guide to disease diagnosis, prevention and control includes numerous colour plates and covers a comprehensive array of diseases - infectious and non-infectious - of cultivated and wild cyprinids.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Fish On, Fish Off is the angling version of Bill Bryson’s A Walk in the Woods. Through a series of nearly 50 personal essays, the author explores what happens when the self-taught, DIY angler sets out to fish the world – and winds up stumbling into every possible pitfall and danger along the way. These include: getting chased from a river by an elephant, surviving a terrifying helicopter ride over the Straits of Magellan, and breaking his only rod on the second cast in Cuba’s Bay of Pigs. Closer to home, he is swept off a jetty on Block Island by a rogue wave, winds up in an emergency room more than once with fishing lures hanging from various parts of his anatomy, and perhaps most daunting, surviving 30 years of the scrum better known as opening day of trout season in his crowded home state of New Jersey. If Upriver and Downstream showed the poetry of angling, Fish On, Fish Off shows the scars.
