Maggie ,

There are only 2 true gentlemen on this site

one is Mr Grenville Marsbar and the other is me .........

All the rest are just pretenders . 

Hi Ed,

I see your from Merseyside, My daughter supports Liverpool and has a yellow liverpool shirt signed by the team that won the double a few years ago.

Ed SIR

I class myself as a gentleman and a scholar and an acrobat .................hang on that's the Pink Panther I'm thinking off

"she must take after her mother"

 Have you ever heard such a sickly "line" Monk?...........................only from a Scouse who thinks he's a frog.............  Julio un Froggarsius!!    

 You have no fear from that quarter!!    

Maggie,

Well there are some wannabes on this thread, all wannabe Gents.

What B.S. A Frog, A guy in a dress (monk calls it a habit), Baz behind bars and a pair of eyebrows.

Lord Paul holds anything goes sex parties at the Manor, the grey hair shows he has seen things you would never dream of.

So Maggie, you can tell me what you want, what you really really want

I had a short conversation with somebody the other week.  He rates himself as a big Bream angler.

He was telling me how another certain angler was a leech, because he watches where he catches from and then jumps on his peg at the fist opertunity.   A week later, the self professed big Bream angler hot footed it to where another angler was catching and asked how far out was he fishing, and in which direction he was casting to.  And what bait he was using.

Personally, I don’t think there is anything wrong in that, we all help each other.  But when they call other people for doing it, I think it’s about time they took a reality check on themselves. 

This is how it really works.

The Bream anglers are watching the Carp lads like hawks.  The carpers are the ones who are doing all the groundwork.  So when you hear some of them spouting on about watercraft etc.  I can tell you now, that it is a load of boillox.

I can count the number of genuine anglers on this forum on one hand.  The rest are shisters and wannabe's.

Sorry Joey ............

3 gentlemen on the site ........

Guess where the shyster is fishing today?

That's right, in the peg where he saw my mate catch from last week.   Watercraft My Arse! 

Water craft My Arse! I'll pass on that one thanks Baz.

Your right Baz, and look at the circus cos many of them are the same, making a name off the backs of others hard work.

How about a name the famous water thread..........and name the unsung hero(s) who first cashed in on it's potential?

You've almost hit the nail on the head Baz.. although there's an additional factor you need to consider.. the Friend Factor.

Carp anglers are social things, resplendent in their matching Advantage Realtree attire. They 'piggyback' favourite swims with their mates, making the most of their time allocation on the peg, then letting their mate jump on when they finish, to make sure it is stitched up for as long as it takes for the fish to find that carpet of carefully placed feed. The leapfrogging can go on for weeks.

On the otherhand, Bream anglers are smelly, unpopular individuals, and live mostly a solitary existence. They have to feed off the scraps, and will try and make 'pretend friends' of the unsuspecting carp anglers, because nobody else is going to feed up a swim for a few nights for them.

Wannabes? yes.. but they only wanna be friends.

Shisters? well.. probably. Depends on whether they catch or not.

;) 

Martin. You are closer to the truth than you think mate on a number of things.

1..Pretend friends with the carpers just so they can get the information. Then call them fit to burn.

2..Pretend friends with me until it suits him to be otherwise.

3..I am hot on the heels of the leach, He is moving around the lake following the Carp lads catches. That's what he calls water craft. I found something out about his dodgy movements last night. I know how he is stitching his chosen swims up. Very soon now I will have him good and proper. I can be very pleasent and pleasing when I want to be.  I'll show him how to be a two faced twat.
