The Legendary Big Carp Series
Burghfield Common
The sixth in our series of
Legendary Carp paintings is
none other than that awesome
creature, the Burghfield
Common.
Only discovered in recent
years, Nigel Sharp rocked the
carp angling world when he
finally landed the beast after a
five-year campaign, during
which time he had only seen
this leviathan on a handful of
occasions.
Regarded by many as the
original myth, there was much
speculation about its existence
at all, until it was finally
landed at an incredible weight
of 50lbs.
Quite how it had evaded
capture for so many years is
still a mystery, but due to the
vast size of this huge gravel
pit, it simply became the
needle in the haystack.
Once its existence was
verified by that first capture,
an army of the country’s top
carp anglers have invaded
Burghfield’s banks and some
feared its mystery would be
lost forever.
But no, this incredible beast
has still proven to be virtually
uncatchable with only a very
few captures in the past half a
dozen years.
Undeniably a legend, this
beautiful animal well and truly
deserves its place in the Big
Carp Hall Of Fame. Coming
soon – the Royal Forty…
