BilgePump Posted July 2, 2022 Share Posted July 2, 2022 @zen-ken I've got a pair of greys of Alnwicks , bought them painfully recently (2017) and haven't used them at all , full cork , SiC's the lot. Sat gathering dust because I don't have the time or inclination anymore , shame really as I used to fish every weekend and a few weekday evenings without fail for 20 years. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pepe Ramon Posted August 17, 2022 Share Posted August 17, 2022 I was just getting back into it, then me and the missus decided to move to Spain. I've not fished at all since I've been here but I'm itching to go, I'll have to get a licence sorted out, I need one for sea fishing here. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Villan Posted September 12, 2022 Share Posted September 12, 2022 My youngest lad got me into Carp about 8 years ago. Love it, PB 33lb 6oz at the moment, hoping to better it end of october with a trip up to the Cotswolds. Never found anything before that allows me to totally switch off.
