    Fishing is moistly about being competent with your equipment and having a vast knowledge of the pray species. Understanding of habitat, conditions and behaviour is vital. You make your own luck on the lake.

    I don’t like live bait or rotten egg bait or all that stuff... killing little things just isn’t my style. I like to use dips and some homemade worms or just those rubber worms work very well. But I normally just don’t care much... My philosophy is don’t try too hard... Keep it simple...

    Ah, so what you put in you get out - It is most important to put in often because you will be rewarded with blowfish, goldfish, guppies but you have to keep an eye open for old wrinkly smelly snoek and also the odd ice cold jellyfish.

    I think we are a world apart on this one... I really do want to try and catch a marlin but the sharks normally get him before you can release it.

    When I fish for Carp I will always have one or 2 rods with a bomb on it. The trick is to keep your rod in the water forever with a bomb, they will come. I also like using boilies and floaties on their own whilst fishing a pre baited spot. I have ample supply of earth worms too if I need. I must admit that Bass fishing is my first love, but I fish for all freshwater species. Bass, Trout, Carp, Babel, Scalie, Tilapia, etc etc even a bluegill here and there. I don’t have massive experience in sea fishing but I love it too
    Fishing makes me happy

    That’s why you must reel the marlin in quickly


    @Adrain - yes it’s true and you may even hook up with a grunter at the end of a hectic fishing day

    hmmm...true.. but you mustn't let the old koi that rules the fishpond at home find out about your fishing expeditions... the old koi gets very upset when they find out that you've been reeling in marlin... I think it is because the old koi no longer looks like a marlin but now resembles a whale!

    why?.... don't get the dm involved that’s bad manners

    Anyway, so Adrian I know you don't have a gimp, but you probably have some secret harem, I hope so. Hey we will chase skirt around CT some time, scout for good locations so long. Ideally we are looking for quality and quantity.
