Hello!

Post by Fen tiger »

Hello! Jako here i am from Lincolnshire, found this forum and it looked pretty active . Which surprised me in these days of facebrag squiter and instaspam.
Looking to learn and perhaps help where i can.
I fished mostly for pike as a kid but Shooting and sea fishing (beach) took over and i never went near a coarse fish until about 4 years ago, even then i have hardly done any. but this year i want to take it seriously again.
I have a mission in mind i want to catch a zander its a fish i have never caught, but i will be also targeting other species but predators are where i really want to concentrate my activities.
most of my fishing for pike as a kid was spinning/lure, and i do still lure fish for bass on the shore. But i have done very little bait fishing inland so tackle terminology rigs etc, get ready for some peculiar questions, as i try to gather the info .

Hello Jack.

Welcome to the Pit :handshake: , plenty useful info on here for you.

I was wondering why Disco Dave was introducing himself in the new members section, I see now your pseudonym is slightly different to Dave's so, no chance for any confusion there then :laughs: .
