Greetings from Sunny Staffordshire

Post by Tincatez »

Good evening,

Just a brief hello....

Having followed in the footsteps of many and learning the sport whilst following behind my dad on many a trip to the local puddle, it seems as I get older that it is more "in" to be going "retro".... going back in time... which for me is fine as I am often told I was born in the wrong century.
Interests are Tench fishing mainly and also nice big flat plump roach fishing....
Tackle.... well .... I do like a good ABU reel as well as the Allcocks range of centrepins.... and adore my Felton Crosswind as well as the obligatory Mitchell ..be it the 300 or its brothers and sisters....
One of the things that makes me want to learn from others is the art of float making.... which I am yet to make a foray into... but am sure that with the knowledge available on here.... it will be a nice easy way to get into a new aspect of the hobby...
Hope that I can bring a little something to the party and join in with like minded folk...

Kind regards to all

Tez...

A hearty welcome, Sir.
