And eating your dinner off of a bucket lid, only fishing urban venues, making sure all your photos of said urban venues are all long exposure night shots and you absolutely must either arrive at your venue on public transport and make a big deal of it, or have a fully tricked up VW T5 transporter as your fishing wagon. If at all possible, try to have matching T5s with your mates for ultracult status. I did say cult.

Hi All,
I had no idea what you were all on about with all this "carpy" stuff. The pic looks like an accident waiting to happen.
But I did look up "carpy" on the urban dictionary, no mention of beards, tattoos or chunky underpants.
But the description is interesting....

Go carp fishing-carpy. Catch carp-carpy. Hands and gear smell of carp-carpy. Dried slime on sweater-carpy. Everything else is just an anagram of carpy with an extra p.

My car is a Ford focus and I can't grow a very good beard. I think it's time to pack in carp fishing for me.
I don't have any social media accounts, so it really is game over.

If you don't listen to drum and bass on way to lake its game over you might as well turn back and forget it.
My personal hate is the khaki man bag, you're wearing cargo/combat trousers with numerous pockets how much do you need about your person.
When i get to lake keys, wallet, change all go in the same place and I even throw my mobile on my bed, and step a couple of yards away from it. I know totally out there but "STEP AWAY FROM SOCIAL MEDIA and OUTSIDE WORLD!"

I don't do drugs and I don't drink alcohol whilst fishing - can I still be carpy?

Of course! You can be ultra carpy by drinking more tea than your bladder can possibly handle and proudly displaying a pyramid of used tea-bags
