Very much under the radar, rather than underground, Rick Hurley has dedicated his life to fishing for some of the most stunning and elusive carp in the country. He has a wealth of captures that would have any discerning big-fish angler champing at the bit to add them to their album, and rather than being a secret squirrel, Rick has concentrated on his next target rather than promoting what he’s already achieved.
He started fishing at nine, became obsessed with carp in his teens and also undertook a fisheries management course at Sparsholt, so his knowledge is unrivalled. He’s been lectured by the best, fished alongside some incredible anglers too, spent time at some of the most prestigious venues and fished for the best carp he could find.
