Good afternoon all,hope you are all keeping safe and well in this glorious sunshine 😊 ive got the fishing bug back after watching countless hours of Chris Yates and Wilson, only snag Is I've only ever specialised in fishing on rivers for Barbel ect

Have never been one for fishing a hole dug in the ground surrounded by 50 other fisherman/fisherwomen(latter would not be so bad) looking for some where with a bit of character and some decent fish to learn pool & lake fishing

Which leads me to my question

Where on earth are there any decent pools lakes near longbridge Birmingham area? Willing to travel beyond those areas of course.

Sorry If it's long winded folks but any help guidance would be glad appreciated
Stay safe all

Kind regards marvoulous barbless

Hello all,

Not really a newbie as I've been on the missing list for a decade and can't remember any log-in details. I'm thinking of a return so will be picking up as much info from here as possible. Those who know me will be thinking "I hope not".

Hey folks new/rejoiner here!
The names Ciaran and I was wondering if anyone could shed some light on a venue I’m going to be fishing this Year in France?
The venues called carp quarry based in the north of France.

Any information would be great cheers guys!

another new joiner here - been lurking for a while.

Recently got back into Carp fishing after 10 years off - a lot has changed since I was in my 20's. Been back at it since last June.

Based in Leeds, so not millions of lakes around, but seem like some great ones still need to try to get on.

Hi Guys

Been lurking around since discovering this forum in the summer

I'm another of those "Returnee's"... having previously fished as a kid/youth back in the 70's & 80's

Then a (very) long break - where did those years go eh?

Got back into it this year - amazing how much has changed.

And I'm now fully obsessed - and getting into the carp side of things.... no serious experience here, best is only 16 lb, but keen to improve (despite being an old git LOL)

Just splashed out on some new gear (rods & reels) and all the very expensive rig bits etc etc

Wont be fishing again until the Spring however..... not a cold weather person!

All the best tight lines

RC
