EUREKA MOMENTS

Introduction by Iain Sorrell

The Greek mathematician, scientist & astronomer Archimedes who lived around 200 BC is famed for running naked down the street shouting ‘Eureka’ (‘I found it’) when he noticed how the water level rose as he lowered himself into the bath leading to his famed Archimedes Principle on displacement.

Frank Warwick stands out not only as extraordinary angler with an amazing tally of fish but also as a novel thinker and clever innovator. Many of the ideas he came up with the in 80’s and 90’s are still being used successfully today or in some instances even being hailed as new and novel ideas by the current generation of carp anglers. I consider myself very fortunate to have known Frank for many years and better still to be able to call him a great friend. What I can tell you is that Frank’s novel ‘Eureka’ moment ideas work just as effectively across this side of the pond in North American waters.

Enjoy reading the stories and outcomes of these Eureka moments by the man himself!
