Hi all,
Just thought I'd introduce myself on FM. I hope I'll be able to contribute some useful comment and content.
I'd describe myself as an all-rounder/specimen hunter, though I have spent time on the dark side too (match fishing). I know one end of a fly rod from the other, though I would describe myself as enthusiastic rather than competent!
I'm a regular sea boat angler, though the weather has won far too often this year.
Living in deepest darkest Norfolk, I'm surrounded by waters of all types, but angling here is rapidly changing for the worse, there is no future for any specimen fishing unless you're surrounded by an otter fence.
I've drifted away from carp fishing in recent years because I can't find fish I want to catch which aren't affected by the otter menace.
I'm doing more river fishing than I have for years, making the most of the roach fishing on the Yare and what's left of the chub on the Wensum (the barbel have almost all become otter food sadly).
