Hi all! My names cal, I'm 18 years of age and I live in Retford , North Notts.
I'm not so new to angling as I've been fishing for 3 or 4 years so far and I guess I've picked it up pretty quickly! I'm kind of a carp angler but not so much to the extent of living in a bivvy for days on end, I've done a couple of overnighters but I'm more interested in a good old early start and sitting out a good 12 hour+ day session! Although I'd said I'm a carp angler I do a hell of a lot of pleasure fishing hunting for all sorts of specimens and luckily for me Retford has some top class fishing spots including the Chesterfield canal which is full of some great coarse species, the River Idle which ive seen barbel of over 10lb in and there's the coarse fisheries too which isnt too bad either! As well as this there are some huge gravel pit lakes out of Retford which I'm going to be fishing over the next couple of months and we're not far from plenty of other fisheries and rivers... including the River Trent!
Due to my mates being a bit sick of hearing about my fishing ideas and escapades, I decided it was time to join a forum for a good old bit of fishing talk... I'm hoping to achieve some goals this year and this place seems like where I need to be for the tips!
thanks, cal!
