thanks it was a great memory of a double hook up and a real problem getting those 2 fish in the same landing net
but it wasnt the first time if you download the mag you will see a colour picture of 2 much earlier 60s fish that was my 1st ever double hook up Moor Lane Staines fish
I had an Orrid and Weird then as I did a lot of fishing all night then go straight to work and of course every weekend in those days being single at that time

Nice one Gerry, an era when carp fishing was something that was very special and not so popular like now, exciting times, I'm sure, great memories

Nice one gerry

The whole thing blends new and old styles really well.
That picture with five fish is unbelievable. You look like one of my kids when they've come in from playing in a muddy garden after it's been raining.

Will read this when time allows, I was wondering why Carp Talk don't produce an online edition nowadays, made a great weekly read and I would expect some adverts interspersed would pay for the small number of peoples time for editing and compilation.
Given I could do some Tik Tok dances and become “famous” nowadays 😁
Edit - that is a proper old school photo, pure classic and stunning fish 👌

Hello everyone. My wife is an avid crafter who was paying extortion prices for her monthly magazines, she came across a site online called ...READLY ...£7.99 a month. She is allowed to put an extra 5 people on it.
I get the angling times, trout fishing air gun and plenty more free on her monthly payment including back issues, might be worth checking it out. There really is loads of magazines in it and newspapers.
