| G'day all. Hello folks, joined the forum the other day and thought I'd say hello. I've been fishing (freshwater) for about 3 years (only using the old float!) I thought I'd join the forum to learn a few tips, techniques and generally improve my knowledge for greater success!  I live in Bristol and generally fish at Bristol docks, the feeder river place, and Bullock farm for those who know the area. Can any1 recommend a peaceful, easy to fish lake around the Bristol/Somerset/Gloucestershire area? Whats the 'Plantation lakes' like?  Thanks.     |

| Re: G'day all. Welcome aboard mate - this might be a bit far but they have two match lakes 100-300lb winning type way ins or the carp lake which is very good fun and the fish are well looked after - you will have to dip your net and mat before fishing and if you do not hacve a mate you cannot fish. Only down side is its full on weekends and is only open from7am til 8.30am but during the weekk fish it weds - fridays and you will have lots of fun with the carp >> Carp fishing bait and rig change Tirley Court __________________ Richard|Sea Fishing |Carp Fishing| Spud Gun | Zander fishing | Fishing Reports | Hunting Reports |
