Great to see a few more of the fairer sex out fishing. Just what we need to give the sport some wider appeal and get more people out there enjoying a few hours on the banks.

So then Angela, tell us a bit more about your fishing exploits and some of your best catches please.

Nice one, well done!! How long have you been fishing? I only started last year but already totally hooked on it.

I even dared to book a fishing trip to france in May, to see if I can get a bigun.


Yep guys.....we are slowly taking over muhahahaha

he sulked big style after his personal best was sixteen. i went to see our boat in the marina at notts and suddenly these carp were swirling on top around the boat. a quick dash home for the carping gear and my cheese sandwich and i was playing a fish of a lifetime. it fell for floating cheesy bread and all this while my hubby sat there sick fixing our engine. my dad has got some good pictures of the carp on his phone but as yet we have not been able to transfer them any suggestions would be grateful

Girls I reckon fishing power rules, I can't understand why there are not more ladies in this sport, as it is a brain game not muscle game.

I fish a local canal often in the summer/autum but not had a carp out of there yet but I know they are in there, hiding underneath the barges....this summer I will make it my mission to get one out of there.



P.S forgot to welcome you to FM...but be aware, you find some bizzar creatures on here. They are a great bunch really, a little mad at times but superb anglers and very friendly and helpful

if you fish a regular spot in the summer try floating bread or dog biscuits without a hook and you should see the carp taking them free off the surface once this happens introduce the hook......and hey presto heart pounding action
