Ola,

Very fine Forum you have here, sadly still not offering Beer on tap though I see

. Have been a reader on and off for quite a while but since selling my business I now have a lot more time on my hands so thought it was about time I pulled up the proverbial chair and joined in.

First I would just like to mention some people have told me I am a bit strange. The reason I believe is because I do all my fishing with a Centre Pin Reel. It started around 10 years ago when my father hooked into a rather large Barbel and got me to take over as he was bursting for a piss! I have not looked back since.

Around 4 years ago I picked up two Ray Walton Rolling Pins these allow me to cast around 70 meters and I have been a happy larry since.

Look forward to shooting the poo with you all .

PS no I do not wear a floppy hat :P

Hi all,

First time on a fishing forum, mainly because I've only just taken up fishing again for the first time since my teenage years (many moons ago!)

Currently doing a spot of coarse fishing in the lakes in and around Liverpool. Glad to be onboard, and hope to re-learn all those forgotten tips and tricks off you esteemed members...

Cheers,

Chris.

Welcome back. You'd better get out there and wet a line quick. Won't have much time once new arrival is
on the scene. Good luck

Not really new but haven't been around for a while, good to see some of the old faces still around

I haven't been carping for ages but will get back into it for definite, I get married in 3 weeks though and my mrs is expecting in September so it's a busy year for me - hopefully it will be a boy so I can take him fishing!

Hi All!!
Recently became a member after a number of years visiting as a guest as and when I could. Now having the luxury of more reliable internet I signed up.
Fished boy and man from early days around Watford, cutting my teeth on the grand union canal at Croxley & Rickmansworth. Rivers, lakes, ponds, given the chance I'd be fishing them. Holidays to North Cornwall, namely Bude, where I would spend all day on the canal there. Trapping my 1st carp by design late into the evening on double corn, Gold hook & a nite lite plugged in the top of my float. From that day forward every water I view with it's carp potential. Although not exclusively a carp only guy, most of the time I'm planning the next trip out with commons and mirrors in mind.
Now residing in West Devon, Totally mad really, my 1st house was a stones throw from Harefield. I was spoilt in that part of the country. I certainly didn't move West for the fishing.
PB came from Farlows on the biggest halibut pellet you could buy at the time. Just went against the norm, as everyone advised I would get "breamed out" using pellet. The carp were often 2nd to the bait so by keeping things different, I dropped my rig on the head of a showing fish & bingo.
Anyway I won't go on as most likely you are bored already? Suffice to say I enjoy all aspects of the Forum and still
picking up the odd tip. Hope, I inturn, can make some valuable contributions in the future.

Hello and Good Evening,
My name is Sean and I live in Beaconsfield. I don't do as much fishing as I would like to, but have done more in the past.
I am here on the recommendation of cowley as per the forum v forum thread and am predictably a member of the same forum as him

What to say? Am an old git and started fishing in 1954. Used to live in South Africa, but been here since 1988. I enjoy all types of fishing, trout, sea, river, pike, coarse, and of course carp

I will need time to read and ingest the current topics before I bore you any more

Sean.
