Hi lee,
Yes, its my new regular sat open venue, Ive never framed yet, but im getting used to this venue and I know what you can and cant get away with. Your right about the carp though, bloody crazy!! only average 2lb but they stetch that 16 elastic like you have a 10lb fish on.!! I probably have seen Mick, but I dont know him to talk to, although i say hi to most people.
Cheers Mal.
