Podcast Drop – Matt Townend – Carping Ninja
***Podcast Drop***
Matt Townend
A Vintage Year. This month Mark delves into his porn collection stories and how his hiding spot got rumbled by his mum during his absence in America. We get back on track with a dissection of Gaz and Elliotts recent underwater film series, Submerge on CYP. We discuss line angles, colour, teritorial carp, rigs and hooked ratios. Following on from our usual ramblings we have an epic special guest, the big carp Ninja, Matt Townend. Most will know Matt from his editorial days at Total Carp but he’s also got an album of big carp that he rarely talks about. I got a chance to pick his brains on his free lining approach and talk through a vintage year that saw Matt catch some incredible carp to over 50lb, a serious achievement by such a humble guy and one that rarely shouts about his successes. Enjoy.
