Dynamite Baits have today revealed that legendary carp angler Terry Hearn is to leave the company after over 20 years working together.
As part of the Dynamite team, Terry gave insight into the development of some of the best carp fishing baits on the market, including the awesome Source, Crave and a more recent favourite Complex-T.
Fortunately for anglers, Terry's departure will not affect the recipes or quality of the baits he helped develop, Dynamite confirmed in their post on social media.
So, what next for one of carp fishing's biggest names? He will certainly be an asset to any company he works with in future, with his films and books both being viewed by thousands, he's widely regarded as one of the best storytellers in angling.
In a statement shared by Dynamite, Terry said: "After twenty-plus years with Dynamite, I’ve decided to take on a new bait arrangement.
"Dynamite have always looked after me exceptionally well, providing great bait and regularly driving all the way down south to drop it off and to pop in for a brew.
"Lovely people at a lovely company, and I’ll always look upon my time there with great fondness.
"However, there comes a time when a decision needs to be made, and I’ve been given an offer that I think suits me well, one focused on steering carp fishing in the right direction with a strong emphasis on nature and the environment, something I’m very passionate about."
