    What would you do in this scenario.

    From years of commie fishing I now have a bit of an agenda against carp it might not have beaten my pole caught PB, so didn't really have much interest... Had it been a 15lb Barbel.. Hmmm

    What would you do in this scenario.

    You arrive at your swim. Spopper a gallon of pellet down the middle of the river, you have a handful of pellets left. You throw the pellets into the margins where its about 2 to 3 foot deep. You set your rods up and are about to start, you hear a splash and see a swirl where you fed your...

    Stinker of a season. Thank god its over

    John.. Youve had a great year, if our times on the bank had been reversed minute for minute, I'd have caught more than I did this season but not as many as you did, and I'd have backed you to have winkled a few more out on my sessions. Roger is just operating at different levels ain't he..
