it would have to be a realy hard go coz theres so may islands and gullys they could be anywhere (only spose be about 10carp at most)
p.s if i were you i would fish feeder mate neva seen many matchman catchin on waggler

[Ginge]

a thought the stocks were a bit higger than that but av seen the amount off islands and gullys you used to be able to pull the boards across if you was doin a night on one off hte islands safest way i belive lol

Fish just off the islands

I think it takes you back to your angling roots catching a few roach ,perch and tench etc or a bit of trotting for chub ,dace etc i tend to dust the match rod off a few times a season a season and have a half day or an evening of non carping fishing . However tying them 18s and 20s spade end hooks is getting a bit of a strain on the old eyes after 20+years of mostly 8s and 10s etc and that thin line cant see it half of the time ..lol

I'm to much of a tight ar5e to spend money on hooks to nylon when i have plenty of perfectly good hooks that just need tying even though it may cause irreparable damage to the old mince pies
