Hi...
First post on this news group..
Basically after a break of some 15 yrs from Angling I am back and boy
have
got alot to catch up on.

I know the feeling, I started again last year after a long break.

Essentials you need.

As far as your pricing goes I would say

16 metre pole @ £2,000

rubbish

Three matched carp rod/reel combos @ £500 each = £1,500

rubbish

Rod pods, pole rollers, bivvy, expensive (and often useless) brand-name
bait, elastics, spods, pole floats, unhooking mat. Say another £500

maybe if you bought them all but i don't no many (infact can't think of any)
that do/have.

Add another £1,000 for other essentials you'll discover you need (camp
bed,
sleeping bag, stove, butler, scullery maid).

once again the pricing is absolute rubbish

So, what was the point of all that then, are you a crack pot or what?
