Hi all,
I've taken up fishing again properly this year after a 10 year lay off.
And I must say, I'm enjoying it a whole lot more than I ever have. I'm out there any time that I can .
Previously I was just an ordinary river fisherman, catching anything that would take my bait, and therefore not catching a great deal.
But this year I have achieved some pleasing pb's, biggest carp (16lb), 2 doubles in a day (in fact it was 3, 11lb, 13lb and 16lb) I realise that these aren't big fish compared to what the majority of you folk are catching, but I'm happy, I'm catching and for me that's all that matters.
Anyway, enough of my drivel.

In reply to Post #377 Just go for Shimano. I have been using a pair of the old 4500 aero GT for about 30 years and they have never let me down. If you go used I would suggest you look at the old GTE 8000. Depends what size waters you are fishing.

Hello Everyone. New Member. Fishing on and Off for 35 years. Enjoy all sorts of fishing. Will even target Bream if they are a good stamp.
Pet Loves - Small intimate venues that offer some rod bending action even if the fish are not huge.
Pet Hates - Carpers who think they are fishing in France and empty 10 kilos of bait into an intimate venue and are surprised when the fish stop feeding.
We fish to catch not to feed them.

Hi all, I'm Adam from fareham. Only been carping for around 9 months. Totally hooked already. Was a loyal sea fisherman for 20 years but I haven't been back on the beach since my first carp trip! I'm bound to ask a thousand questions so apologies for that in advance!
