I thought that behind the scenes, Embryo took over the 'freeholds' of some ottered club waters they helped out, keeping the public facing club to carry on as normal.

By doing so, they secure the land/site for the future. And obviously, is an increasing asset to use/borrow against with financial help from Grants/banks, for more future purchases.

Correct me if I am wrong

I wouldnt part with my hard earned to fish somewhere I've no interest in as it's far to far away to be practicable. Fair play to those asking for some lolly to fence the place, and the same goes to those chasing around The Common. Not that I endorse any not it.

As for that Elis bloke: he's not doing it for commercial reasons? Pull the other one. He's whoring out Avids tatt. It's in Elis's interest to keep The Common alive for self serving interest's. It's just about cudos and bragging rights, oh and a mighty big ego the size of a planet to stroke. Just another headhunter. I do wonder if these types actually enjoy fishing?

I've often thought that myself do they actually enjoy going fishing or they feel they have to be there .
So much pressure on wanting to be well known in the carp fishing world, sad really.

1/ They have the money to pursue it for the own enjoyment

2/ Probably because the sponsors tell them to...or the company have bought their burghfield ticket

3/ They want their bait or tackle to land one of the UK's most desirable big commons.

Tell you what I think. I think they are a bunch of ****s

Oh, yeah, flowery nice stuff. They have self promoted themselves beyond belive and changed the face of carp fishing as I knew it with all their over hyped bollox to sell tackle and now they think they are going to win people back, yeah, we're doing the right thing, what a bunch of ****s

And BTW as you may have noticed. I do t want to be part of anybody's arse licking gang, what a bunch of s

That's not pointed at you at all Scaley

It's a sad state of affairs, Carpworld eh, where the **** did that go, same as everything else that was good about the pastime

What a load of b*ll*cks, I can think of more than one venue on their portfolio that became nothing more than a hole in the ground before they took the reigns and fenced and stocked the pits. Proof that you cant do right for doing wrong in some peoples eyes. Good on them I say

Agree.

Still laugh to myself when somebody recently posted they were fishing near said “superstar” yeah suprised me how quite and humble he was really in real life

No surprise to me because it's like fake news ain't it, if you were a mouthy **** in real life you would get a good hiding wouldn't you, you see, all this piss and wind advertising hype sets home when they actually go fishing, and the good news is that they are embarrassed themselves because they know the reality, even though they promote it, they know its embarrassing and then the copy cats do it because they think that , its the norm!!!
