Stowmarket Official Guide (295 words) |
 | At the geographical heart of rural Suffolk and on the River Gipping, lies the Town of Stowmarket. |
| The Town is situated some 12 miles North West of Ipswich and 14 miles South East of Bury St. Edmunds and therefore it occupies a strategic location in the centre of the county of Suffolk on the A14 road from the Midlands and the North to the Euro-Port of Felixstowe. |
| River traffic inevitably declined after the coming of the railways in 1846 and the Gipping Navigation was closed by an Act of Parliament in 1932. |

| I began fishing for river carp almost eight years ago, after becoming disillusioned with the schoolboy antics of so-called fellow carp anglers on stillwaters, and have since found it to be one of the most rewarding types of fishing I have ever undertaken. |
| The larger rivers such as the Thames obviously have a larger biomass, and are able to support greater numbers of large carp, but do not let this put you off fishing the smaller rivers of the country. |
| These tiny rivers are not to be overlooked by the budding river carper, and will often throw up a surprise or two, to those willing to do their homework. |
