The RMC is a fantastic fishery with some very big carp known to be resident at certain spots. However, it is the knowledge that the venue has the ability to produce carp of such a size which keeps us excited about exploring some of the more remote sections. Our methods and tackle are very basic, it is our work ethic and enthusiasm which will see us succeed - God willing? Great start for you and Rob - that'll be another pint you owe him?

Like you I am drawn to some of the amazingly professional video output from the likes of Korda and Nash. Fascinating stuff, I feel like a schoolkid in the infants sometimes! So much to learn, or at least to draw lessons from that I can then apply to our own angling circumstances. Rob has just opened our Exeter Canal carp account with a lovely 24:08 mirror, before I've even got a single session in! Great for confidence on a difficult venue.

Manic, obsessive, behavioral dysfunctions due to a very un-important hobby. For those involved - it is fantastically enjoyable. Those looking from the outside see nothing but lunacy and long may it continue!<br /> Dylan Wrathallhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01285181139467170047noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7338589224051075532.post-36096655016422510572017-03-31T07:18:29.287+01:002017-03-31T07:18:29.287+01:00Angling is obviously a lot like birding Dyl - to t...Angling is obviously a lot like birding Dyl - to the layman it's just a thing that you do without any deviation- but if you actually get involved in either one, there's a million and one ways of doing so.
