That was ace. There are so many funny things about that it is hard to know where to start but a great find! The bite indication is just how my friend Leo set us up fishing a Dutch canal, albeit with a ball of paste, “this is the Dutch way” he said.

Spud and sea hook! I'll watch the rest of it later but thanks for posting this Fred, I was still chasing minnows and sticklebacks with a hand net back then

What a strike!

I know that carp can take a while to land but I've never had my hair grow 6" during the fight

And, the straight from the Disco to the bank look never really caught on did it?

That said, it was great.

I like the white rod just in case the fish didn't see him. And the " jaunty" rod and rest position.

Where was his floppy hat?
