Fishing magic was great; Lee Swords used to write some great stuff but the forum was tame compared to some.

I missed all the old carp forums as was barbelling and the barbel wars on the forums were great; sound like the old carp forums to be fair.

BFW was full of users with multiple user names and winding people up was the sport; this sprouted BFAMW which was funny too. That's where my user name AKA came from.

Did people in the '70s talk so fondly about the 50s like we do with the 90s and early 2000s now?

BFAMW was very funny. Found myself on the end of a few wind ups. But the guys I got to know through it were sound. Still in touch with one or two.

BFW was good too - had some superb Barbel fishing with guys from there.
