[Carp Crazy]

Hi everyone

I have just got into carping over last 12 months.
Based in Tunstall Area
trying to learn as much as possable. been fishing a local day ticket water
( days and Overnighters), stocked with low doubles.
Started to look for club waters as day ticket prices are killing me!!!
Also 99% of fish seem to be Mirrors would really love to catch good looking common...any ideas .

Any help

Hi CC..

with you being based in Tunstall, there are plenty of waters around you which u might be interested in fishing, which are on a club ticket and everybody has access to. Do u have transport ?? Or is it a case of grabbing a lift.

Anyway here are some crackers on your doorstep and i would certainly consider fishing and supporting, our local clubs.

Middleport Anglers - Westport Lake & Tunstall Park
Kidsgrove Anglers - Bathpool Park Lake & Leggo Mutton
Victoria & Biddulph Anglers - Serpentine Lake & Stinky's
Potteries Anglers - The Swamp
Trentham Gardens
Silverdale AS - Furnace Pool
Fenton AS - Smith's Pool

Chell Pool??
Goldendale

Just a few there, but there are a couple more..if u need them.
