There’s quite a few well known anglers that have posted on here over the years . Jim Shelley , Keith Moors and Richard Gardner to name just 3 . You could also add Nige Woodcock and , er , Carpmachine to that list as well 🤣

JS is the same in real life, and not as nice as his books portray. I won't wash laundry in public, but I've had run'ins with him, and I know additional stories, not just hearsay. I miss Richard Gardners posts, and articles. I recall some articles he wrote years ago about both fly fishing for carp, and Nile Perch in Africa. Moorsey used to be prolific. Newest purchase, after rod licence last week (disabled get concessionary, wow!) to replace the 3 year old chest waders that started leaking in both legs after finding cracked off leads, rigs and hooks in the weed, I ordered a new pair Wednesday night, they have just arrived. £30 well spent.

I always forget to tell my mate my lead bag is in his rucksack then when we get to our faraway swim suddenly I would remember…this has happened several times 😇
