welcome.

roll on mate....

I love autumn and spring but it’s the dark I think gets me down more than anything in the winter. You go to work its dark go home its dark as a lot of you know I like a little bit of fishing and I just love that getting home from work throwing the rod in the car shooting down the road to my little club lake and fishing to 10.00pm :sunny:

I have had some great commons over the years but i have a very sick problem with mirror carp and fully scaled and linear just do it for me

just to catch rob is nice, no matter what the size, that was one i poached on my mates rod while he was asleep if you snooze you lose.....

a fully scaled mirror is a lovely fish , never caught one myself but here's hoping.

nidge i've had some memorable days stalking chub on the shallow areas on the avon near cov , like you say it's the catching that matters,

mind you i've blanked at coombe fishing for carp , but to wake up at dawn with a mist hanging over the water and the sun just creeping over the tree's is what it's all about ( that and the full breky and mug of tea cooked on the lakeside :Fishing: )

They are stunning fish had a few fully scaled but then again I think some of the old estate lake commons I have caught are stunning a completely different type of fish. To the run of the mill fish you get out of your average day ticket water. I just like mint carp It breaks my heart when you see them with there faces smashed off

thats why i love small (i mean up to 8oz small) carp, pristine, no scars, no sores, no mangled mouths, no ripped fins. they just look like all carp should

keep the carp lol

you know you love em......

Thats a big tadpole

Oh yes the summer can't wait for it
