Going to have another go at them next closed season. Was a bit of an exploratory session this year of which the main finding was that I probably didn’t get enough bait in so next time I should take a sack load and almost spod it in for the first hour.

Look forward to hearing the results. I looked forward to hearing what you caught as you prepared for that last session. I get my groundbait Catapult out when within range.
At Chard I was lucky and only had 10 casts with the feeder at the start and hit the fish instantly. Was on Double Worm on a size 14 and had non stop wrap round bites. My kind of fishing. - Joined

Let's not bother with asking others to post their catches we will just let you two repeat and discuss all yours again ??

For someone that often bangs on about people worrying about what other people are doing you do seem to spend quite a bit of your time worrying about what other people are doing ??

There was me thinking this was a forum for sharing fishing experiences and having fishing discussion ?
You're are a funny old sod arent you, each to their own I guess ?

My year has been my first back for near ten years ,I joined my old club and duly won the first match I entered, so that was a good start ,I won four out of eight evening matches I fished ,?
I have also just won three on the spin of our Sunday matches ,the last being an all roach catch which was a great pleasure to do .
One of my evening matches sticks out as I had a disastrous start but finished with just under a ton of carp for a nice win .
All in all my return to fishing has been pretty dam good.

Since returning to fishing in October (5 weeks ago), I've had around 10 sessions in total, so that's all I have to choose from.
1) First trip out, remembered some stuff from before, caught a load of skimmers, a few small carp and had a great day. Made we want to go and join an angling club.
2) Second trip to new club lake, caught 3 carp of around 8-9lb on the method feeder, everything worked as it should and I felt like I knew roughly what I was doing.
3) Today, used a pole properly for the first time, sitting on my new seatbox, and caught fish. Then had 5 F1s in 2 hours on the feeder this afternoon.
I'm well and truly hooked.

Caught and Lost, the one i remember most about was one i lost at the A1 bridge, it was 3am ish id just got snuggled up to Albert and Dropped off when the alarm screamed off, i honestly though id Hooked a truck on top of the bridge, after about 15 mins i had him tamed or so i thought the headlamp hit the sight of him as he did a splashing last run to freedom and the Hook pulled. Id bet my Life on him being my new pb.
