''The most hackneyed angling sayings''.

The two that really get up my nose are, Thats Carpy, and the pair of camo clad drunks telling me they only came down for a social, always tempted to say, well stick your bivvies over in the field behind us.

There is no doubt at all that the angling skill of those mentioned, and others, contribute to their success. There is another factor to take into account as well, the sheer amount of fishing time they are able to get under their belts.

All angling disciplines have their advocates, unfortunately ''some'' a little more boisterous than others. It's been that way for as long as I can remember, and that's many years. Sadly no matter what's said I cannot see the matter being resolved.
