This is the first time I have ever read a story about carp fishing and collection, as well. But then, I think it's worth a day with the carps. oh, cool fishing experience, huh?!!!

I had various sessions on the Siene with Barbel to 9lbs and Carp to 37lbs but the best for me was the Soane, a small incut with weir and dead arm, loads of weed and a pub only 300 yards away. Spent the best part of August there one year and had some crackers, I hope you get a result too. All the best Fraser Hi Will,

I too found rivers fascinating, yet hard... often frustrating, but rewarding when it comes right. There are so many influences that can make just fishing hard... boats, flow, weed, debris, snags.... On occasions I couldn't even cast out without ending in a snag... 10 casts, 10 times snagged, in different areas has you pulling your hair out. But I also found when the fish were there it's the easiest fishing there is... your bait hardly has time to hit the river bed. Beware of varying levels... I fished one stretch vitually in Paris, where the boats never snagged you. Then over night the level dropped, without my noticing... first boat of the day saw three runs at once and me desparately trying to cut the lines as it poured off the spools... fun, fun, fun!!! Bon courage... Gareth Hi Will,

I might as well make the most of it while it lasts! Cheers Gareth - time on the bank is one of the benefits of being young and unattached. I might as well make the most of it while it lasts!

It already seems like an age ago that we were there, but I've definitely learnt from the experience and am applying that knowledge to my fishing over here. Mostly, 'He who dares wins'...eventually!
