“I travelled 35 miles west on a wet and grey morning, heading to an unknown spot somewhere between Manchester and Bolton. I’d had no luck all season, seen a handful of caps and decided there must be a way to use logic to find a place where they grew in abundance. It was raining heavily when I pulled up and slipped my waterproofs over my trousers. Climbing the mossy stile into a completely unknown isolated spot 35 miles from home I had no idea if I’d find a fucking thing, but within a minute I spotted them… caramel and brown alien clusters, sprouting from tufts beside the path, and as I looked around the deserted moor I realised they were everywhere…”

Frequently Asked Question
- Couldn’t I do this without the guide?
- Of course – This guide is just common sense approach to using freely available data and information, you could absolutely do this without this guide

- Absolutely not! This guide is no guarantee whatsoever or a successful hunt, I wish it was that simple – But, it does significantly increase your chances

- The guide didn’t work for me, can I get my money back?
- Sorry but I don’t offer refunds…I’m offering the guide for a really reasonable amount and I’ve had tremendous luck using it, but I’ve also discovered nothing at possible spots – If you’re not 100% sure you want to invest, I recommend simply not buying the guide
