Hi:

I've just joined this group and looking forward to participating. If you
want to see me in action, here's a recent TV appearance.

Pretty annoying video. Last time I was in the UK, I outfished my
partners 5 to 1. They were chumming maggots and casters whilst I was
using a fly rod. I was told that my use of the fly rod was "not
cricket."
Did learn that carp on the fly are a blast. So much so that I left my
cushy job in easy driving distance of some of America's best trout
streams for life in the American Midwest, home of warm, slow waters and
60 lb carp. You leave a 5 gallon bucket on your back porch overnight
and it'll be filled with carp in the morning. Don't have a job anymore
to get in the way of my carp fishing, hell, don't have a family
anymore, but I can fish all day for carp. Got a good recipe for carp
cakes too.
Finally, a kindred soul. Glad to have you here. Write if you want the
recipe.
