Good luck and enjoy mate. 👍 👍

This is why we go fishing to see such beautiful wildlife and get a pull on your line of course. 👍

I think it's one of those carp shaped cushions. 😂😂😂

Your right there mate that is one ugly carp. 😂😂😂

Unlucky mate☹️ I'm sure you'll get another chance mate you do put plenty of time in on that place.

Have I missed something,🤔 what happened last week? 👍

I also fish fan lodge it's a great little lake plenty of carp in there if that's what you want. If you fancy some sturgeon fishing have a look at some of the commercial fisheries. I do know there is one in Earlestown near Newton not sure of the name but if you're interested let me know and give me a few days and I can find out for you. 👍👍

There is a specimen lake at firtree but like Highy said it's a syndicate lake, you pay a yearly fee plus a fee every time you want to fish it. I'm not sure what the fee price's are if you phone they will give you all the info. There are sturgeon in there. 👍 I'm also from chorley and I'm on the Wigan ticket great value for money 35 quid for the year the have plenty of water's to go at and a few of them around chorley. 👍

If you take him on there he'll charge you, I took my daughter last year it cost me 12 quid, she enjoyed it that's the main thing. 👍 👍

Sounds like a plan mate 👍 if Monday the 9th is my day off I'll probably be on there myself. 👍👍

2 rods 6 quid 👍same price for kids which I think is a rip off. 😠.

All this cooking on the bank is making me look lazy, I do only do days but my norm is porridge in a pot just a hot water for breakfast and tinned Aldi chicken curry for lunch and crisps and snacks the rest of the time. And plenty of tea to drink. 👍 👍

Yep that's the one mate. 👍👍

Well I tied 3 multi rigs up tonight, I'll hopefully be trying them on Monday with both bottom baits and pop ups. I'll fish one rod with multi and one on a hair and see how I get on. Can't wait not been for a few weeks. 👍😀

Hi and welcome to the forum nascar. Rod and line mate 👍 😂

Well said mate a similar thing happened to me. For many years me and my best mate always fished together, started of sea fishing and then we moved onto pike, we travelled all over the Northwest plus upto the lake district and Scotland and then we did the full circle and went back to sea fishing mostly around the Northwest and north Wales with odd trips to the east coast. Anyway it was getting a bit much for me with two small kids and work so I moved back to doing some coarse fishing on my own and that led onto the carp fishing for me. My mate carried on with his sea fishing and is still at it today. We are still good mates but we just don't fish together. I'm the same like getting out on the bank on my own, gives me time to unwind and relax and I think when I'm out on your own fishing I personally put more effort and thought into my fishing. 👍 👍

What patterns do you use for bottom and pop ups and do you use Wafters with this rig? 👍 👍

Hi stevo a quick question for you about the multi rig, when you use it for bottom baits do you make it up any differently ( I.e do you still make a break in the coating on the braid and still but shot or putty on it? 👍 👍

Nothing to report yet mate? 👍

Good luck mate 👍

You got me hook line and sinker. 🎣😂👍

OK this is a carp forum with a separate forum for coarse fishing and predetor fishing. I know they are all coarse fish and there are the separate forums for people to discuss different types of fishing if they wish to do so. So why pick on my post and no one else's when there has been numerous post about different fish chub perch grayling just too name a few. Which are all coarse fish the same as the carp. Just because I titled my thread coarse fishing when I was talking about a coarse fishing trip which I had really enjoyed and wanted to share. 👍

I see you mean general game or general sea fishing. 😀 So if you were planning a carp fishing trip say to France with your mates you would refer to it as coarse fishing trip. 😉

'General' fishing do you mean coarse fishing 🤔

It's becon view in apply Bridge. It's a commercial, not on the Wigan ticket. 👍
