Hi jabber and welcome to Anglers Net.

 

Weekends are often pretty slow on here so it might be a day or three before anyone from your area sees the thread.

Although it's probably not best from a friendship perspective, you will probably find you fish better on your own. It can be helpful having other people to run ideas by but it's very easy to turn the sessions into social events rather than fishing sessions. Also try talking to the guys on the bank. On most (all ?) waters you should find people are helpful and approachable and fishing friendships develop from there.

Hi Jabber. I'm in Oxfordshire, so no good, but hopefully someone will be local and fancy a session.

I think what jabber is saying though Rob is that he is new to carping....ie, he doesn't really know how to go about it and is looking for someone to show him the ropes. (I think!!!)

 

Sorry jabber, wrong county mate!

Hi jabber,

if you are serious about taking up carp fishing, you will have to get used to being lonely, especially if you do night sessions.lol.

Does your club have meetings? Why not go along and see if there is a carp angler who is willing to help you get started. It is surprising once you start visiting carp venues how soon you get to know the others. Carp fishermen are notoriously nosey and a new bivvy on the lake soon arouses curiosity; hence visitors.

Sorry I can't be of more assistance as I live in Kildare and although I was not new to carp fishing when I moved here I was new to the area. I now know most of the carp anglers in the area and some from other parts of Ireland. I shall have to start again when I move back to Scotland. Thank goodness for the internet especially the forums.

Best of luck.

Pick the busiest carp water on your club book. Plan some night sessions. While on the water take a cheap folding 'guest' chair, loads of water, tea making kit, and most importantly biscuits. Trust me, when the lads start wandering through the daytime they'll drop in on you. Once they're sat down with a cuppa and some biccies they'll be yours! Ask and you will be answered.
