New to the midlands :)

Hello people.

I used to fish a few club waters in the north Yorkshire area, pleasure carp fishing I suppose, the odd night here or there. I have been out of the game for a few years since I moved to the Midlands.

I live in Wolverhampton but am fine traveling a little (tbh the excuse to get out of Wolverhampton is a welcome one), I am ideally looking for a club or two with a couple of waters for some casual carping that aren't super busy. I don't really mind the size of the fish in all honesty as long as I have a little peace and a bit of action.

If anyone could point me in the right direction id be very very grateful.

Thanks.

Have you thought about trying proper (river) fishing? Your only 10 miles from some of the finest river fishing in the country!?

[Bungz]

Never tried it much.

If you can point me in the direction of some carpy rivers then id be willing to learn

Welcome!

BAA is super value.

There are plenty of carp in the canals near Wolverhampton too.

I lived in Wolverhampton a while ago, Newhampton Road, the other end from the Molineux.Can't say I'd rush to move back, even though I am just down the road.

Kinver Freeliners have some water on the Severn lower down that has carp in it.

Having said that I think there is a waiting list.

BAA is great value , though , sometimes a little heavily fished. I wouldn't mind betting some of the lower stretchs have carp too.

All the best.

Pete.

Just an update fished Nordley Pool number 2 today and had 5 off the top.

Nothing off the bottom but I only had ready mades with me and I always question them

Anyway was nice to get the rods bent again after such a long hiatus.

Thanks again.
