  1. hello all are there any traditional tackle users out there i am based in the north essex/suffolk area i used to use modern tackle but i lost interest i was a field tester for a bait company and fished for carp 4/5 times a week. to tell the truth it got boring and i lost interest then i picked up a cane rod and restored it and tried it out with a centre pin and HELLO what fun. now i spend my time wandering river banks with traditional tackle and i feel like a kid again. i wonder is there any one that wants to meet up and fish in my area two of us using traditional tackle sounds like fun ,time for the kelly kettle, yes i do have one. kindest regards terry
