Comforting to read Fred.

I am a Lincolnshire Yellow Nelly but lived in Wiltshire.

Got the Carp bug 2 years ago - still waiting for my first double (on the
bank), got the bug when big bugger took my 3lb line and toyed with me

for
15 minutes. Even my wife was excited (at least something excites her

these
days ;-)). Just short of the landing net and it shook off. Simple gear
using flake on the surface.

Read lots, tried lots, fished lots but not yet caught Mr Double. But

he'll
come.

Oh - on a syndicate water in Lincs/Cambs. They reckon to 28lb....here's
hoping

Cheers for the info mate, ...actually i'm from cleethorpes, and there

isn't
a whole lot of decent lakes round here,....a few smallish ponds, but i'm
still after my 1st double carp ..I've only been fishin' for ..( this is

4th
season ), but i've had about 20 carp in the 6-9 pound group....waitin'

for
a
big 'un....but it's a case of travelling, say, fifty miles at

most....One
good bream session does me for the year, and had a 100lb from
Ancaster...(Specimen Lake), didn't see anyone catch any 'Specimens'

though,
come to think of it, not even a Carp came out from any swim ....in 48
hours......We went specifically for Bream, so all was OK....Anyway,

cheers
again, looks like Smeaton will be given a miss.....All the Best....FRED
