You and your mates all look the same and apart from a few minor insignificant differences among your group, you all fish the same. You are struggling as ever, tripping along with the odd fish to one of you in an apparently random manner. Instead of fishing differently and risking a few real changes, you literally turn your back to the lake and spend your weekly two night weekend sessions gossiping and backstabbing those who fish entirely differently and who wish to enjoy their fishing without the crap you send their way.
Instead of pulling down others who can catch carp on a regular basis, raise your own game.
If you are catching dear reader and you have a miserable half dozen on your water, you would be well advised to keep your head down, never mention the fish you catch and keep yourself to yourself because of these awful people.
Curb your jealousy.

We all keep secrets (it's good angling) but keeping your head down, never mentioning the fish you catch and keeping yourself to yourself is no way to get accepted onto any water imo.
Posting stuff like this on an open forum and accusing people of jealousy instead of speaking with them to address any problem aint gonna solve the issue either buddy, it'll make it worse.

Well, it cant make it worse. No one knows the water, but its happened everywhere Ive been.
Why on earth should I need to become accepted? What are your criteria for acceptance? That I keep you fully informed?
You out Friday Y?

Like I said, we all keep secrets, it's good angling, and I can't suggest any criteria for acceptance, but basic social skills cost nothing buddy. A quick chat with your fellow members is all it takes.

That fact should have you thinking mate. Not every angler that catches more than average has this problem.
I wish I was out Friday man......
