There is far more to fishing than catching fish and I always love to see images from the waters edge. I obtained this fantastic image from Stafford Moor from ‘Steve Pinn (aka The Bivvy Tramp)’ – As he is affectionately known by some of his mates. Photography and angling go together hand in hand especially in carp fishing where the angler is so often waiting expectantly amidst the natural landscape.
Fortunately I am sure the ice has gone now and with luck this will bring the fish on the feed!

The summer holidays provide the ideal time for a little father and son time. Carp fishing gives the opportunity to combine the joys of fishing and camping. Sleeping out beside a lake on a summer night is a great adventure and a chance to see wildlife close at hand and hear the owls in the still of the night.
The warm cloudy conditions are proving ideal for carp anglers across the region with Stafford Moor as always providing some fine sport these are the latest reports sent me by Joanne Combes.
Aarron Rundle had 5 carp in 24 hours using mainline cell from the beach swim on Beattie’s lake.
Michael Toms fished on Beattie’s for 36 hours had several carp up to 22lb 12 oz fishing with sticky baits krill boilies 16mm.
