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

Very nice fish mate. 👍 Go on then tell us your 'secret ingredient' 😀👍

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? 👍 👍

Fan mate 👍. What weights?

Hi and welcome to the forum. 👍

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. 👍

And tench I forgot about those. 👍 😁

Well I was supposed to be taking my 14 year old daughter coarse fishing today. So I sorted all the gear out, tip rod for her, float rod for me, I went and bought all the bait yesterday, just some father and daughter chill out time. Anyway last night she says too me do you mind if I go out with my mates instead of fishing, well I couldn't say no could I. 😀 So it was a chill out day for me doing a bit of float fishing on my local pond, I couldn't waste the bait. 😀. I had a good day lost count of the fish roach perch gudgeon bream rudd and crusian carp. This perch had eyes bigger than his belly.

I had a day session on my local club lake. I worked Monday night and went straight from work at 4am. I had three fish. 8lb,9lb and a new pb 14lb 8oz, well chuffed. Both side's. 😁😁😁

Has anyone got the ngt hook sharpening vice, any good or give it a miss. 👍

This one as solid and massive it was the same size as the tube. 😂😂😂

I was using my throwing stick yesterday, I was really struggling to get 10yrd, then realised the boilie's weren't dropping down the tube properly, I was throwing boilie's that had been glugged and I thought some had stuck inside, so I tried washing out with some water, no better. So I gave it a good few bangs on the ground and the biggest slug I ever seen in my life fell out of the end. 😁😁😁

I was talking to the bailiff and he told they were spawning sat night and Sunday. There was no signs of anything spawning today. 👍

Nice ☺️👌

☺️ Ignore

I finally broke my duck on my new club water nothing big but I feel like I've achieved. ☺️ I caught two commons 5 1/2lb and 6 1/2lb no photo's. 👍

Hi and welcome Dean 👍
