Hi All,
I live near Reading in Berkshire, I’m from Holland originally where I used to fish a lot, mainly for carp. I stopped when I came to the UK in the late 90s (apart from whip fishing with my kids ).
I want to pick up fishing again but don't really know where to start. I obviously lost track of all the new carp rigs, baits etc. .
Don’t see myself getting back into specimen carp hunting, with long blank sessions. Maybe find commercial waters with smaller carp? Try something different, like aiming for Tench or Bream? or perhaps something on the Thames or Kennet/avon when the season starts?
