Who does a bit of fishing then?


Recommended Posts

Right! Ian asked me if I fancied being a mod on this forum, and I have gone for it.

 

So, how many of you that use this site are partial to a bit of angling?

 

I really am interested.

 

I am pretty well versed in most matters concerning coarse angling but as is always the case with fieldsports I am learning new things all the time.

 

I confess now to knowing pretty much sweet FA about Sea Fishing of Fluff Chucking in its various forms. Must admit, I fancy a bit of a go at fluff chucking.

 

So back to my initial question, Who are the anglers amongst us? What type of angling do you do?

 

regards

ok moocher?

yes i get out on the rivers from time to time. Coarse fishing. Mainly target chub in the Loddon, Berks. Trying for a (decent) barbel this coming season.Also fish the Yorkshire Ouse when I stay at in-laws at Stockton.

When I go back to my famly in Pembrokeshire go out with brother in law after bass off the rocks.

Father in law on Teeside took me to Seaham one boxing day after cod, without doubt coldest bleakest days fishing ever. I'd done my flask of coffee by 6am and we fished till noon :icon_eek:

Hi Moocher,

 

Been fishing for about 25 years now..........20 carp fishing.

Like to dust off the old float rod now and again..........best day was on the Kennet dace fishing with Bob James.

Didnt catch lots....but .......well you know..........everything was just perfect.

Done a bit of resevoir fluff chucking from a boat.........but would really like to try dry fly chalkstream fishing, that must be the purest form of the sport IMHO.

My fishing has changed since I was younger.....its not about the numbers game anymore, its more about everything being right.........the place.........the fish.........no one driving me mad :yes:

Dont like to catch loads............just to catch what I like my way.

Not putting anyone down, but I no way could go to 1 of these carp puddles to get a bend in the rod, even in mid winter.

 

Whats your feelings on Bait Boats ;) ............I think they shoulnt let you have one untill you have fished for 5+ years :D

I would never have 1...........but hey...........thats just me.

I see a lot of people now days fishing shallow, weedy lakes and if the batery runs out, they are stuffed.............allways makes me smile :D

 

Anyway, enough from me........good to have you on board.

JOEB

Hi moocher

I love my fishing (27years) sea trout fishing at night being my first love (see sea trout page on this forum) its worth noting that according to last weeks shooting times 84% of people who shoot also fish.
