Hi all

Hello to everyone on here. I bet this is a regular theme but I thought I would post anyway. I used to fish a lot as a youngster but booze and other things got in the way :-( and I stopped. However I went out with my brother a few weeks ago and really enjoyed it and can feel the bug coming back so I thought I would get onto a forum and try to get some advise for the best new gear to buy and new techniques to try out. This place seemed like the best of the bunch so I will be hanging around to pick your brains in the future.
Regards,
mr_conners

Very much how many of us have "got back" in to fishing. One BIG warning though. It'll probably bite even harder the second time round. I was mad keen as a kid and thought that I would have grown out of it when I returned to the sport I had loved so much. Not a bit of it. Welcome back!

Welcome m8, always happy to help people back into the beautiful sport

Cheers.
I'm really looking forward to it actually. A mate of mine was at the local pond and I popped in on the way home from work to see him tonight, I said I would stay about 10 minutes, then 1 hour later after staring at one of his floats and discussing why nothing was biting I realised I had to go home to make the tea. Time just seems to distort, its fantastic.
