Re: Early 70's British carp study group landing net
If I may resurrect this thread .
I would appreciate it if anyone has any decent images of the original B.C.S.G. landing nets .
The link earlier in the thread appears dead now sadly .
Any help would be most welcome
Kind regards
John

Re: Early 70's British carp study group landing net
I first posted here about the original B.C.S.G . BRITISH carp Study Group Net about 8 years ago . Perhaps not the right forum for this carp net , but it is such a huge part of my own angling history .
I just wanted tovshare my joy because I am now the custodian of an original net in remarkably goid condition .
Incase anyone was wondering what they look like ;
Lovely long Ash arms and this one has the original net and bag still .

Thats a lovely looking net there, looks very sturdy and with long ash arms too.
Very nice, thanks for Sharing that.

The close season is an important and interesting time for the Angler who set out to catch big fish. It is a timely opportunity for him to make new tackle or renovate old. There are no end of jobs to do, apart from those horrible things called Gardens!

Fantastic sir, a piece of history and still very usable. I remember these nets being advertised in one of the BCSG magazines but which I cannot remember.
