Alrite every1. Don't know what to say really started carp fishing about ten months ago. Never done any kind of fishing before. Love it. I fish around the birmingham area and midlands. Took me about 8 months to catch my first double now my pb is 24. 3 lb and I tell every1 I meet. Looking forward to speaking with like minded people cus iam borimg all my mates talking about riggs an everything else.

Hi All.......just made a return to fishing after not wetting a line for 20 some years, and completely new to carp fishing. Have seen a few nice ones in the local waters, looking forward to stalking them. Sadly there are still a lot of folks around here (U.S. midwest near chicago) that see carp as a "trash" fish...the town I live in used to hold a Carp fest, the goal being to catch as many as possible and rid the lake of them.....luckily they were unsuccessful.
Well, back to reading and learning for me...take care ...Estaban

Hello all,
My name is Mark, carp angler for almost 30 years but packed it all in 3 years ago and sold all my gear cos I just wasn't getting the buzz anymore. Yep, you guessed it, the bug is back and over the next few months I'm going to be kitting myself out again! Although I bought a carp mag the other day for the first time in 3 years and sae a bivvy priced at £800! WTF!?

Looking forward to catching up with the carp scene on here over the next few months.
