The Carp Society Adult MasterClass is held annually especially for carp anglers who want to expand their knowledge of carp fishing in a safe environment. The programme will cover best practice to help anglers catch, care for, and return carp of all sizes. We aim to teach respect for the quarry, other angler,s and the waters we fish.
When is it?

During the event students will fish afternoon, evening and nights always with an instructor present, the ratio is 2:1.
