Can anyone explain to me what the fun is in carp and match anglers going to these over stocked lakes and pulling out tame carp after tame carp?.....or fishing for a 40 that everyone knows has been imported from france?
For the match type anglers, the old timers like Ivan Marks, Kevin Ashurst, Ian Heaps and Dennis White had real angling skill, they were winning matches fishing for truly wild fish.........same with carp fishing, the greats like Rod Hutchinson, Kevin Maddocks and Andy Little were pioneers.
We are so far away from what fishing is all about now days its just untrue.
