Noticed a couple of references to Hythe beach..... Took these photos tonight, I live just of the Seafront, took these as I am doing some paintings, thought the light and water looked good. My brother does fishing and is coming up in a week or two, so may have a go. Some weeks the front is very busy. The second shot shows the anglers0

When I lived in England I used to go Carp fishing regularly, and really enjoyed it. I belonged to the Blue Circle fishing club so mostly used to fish their waters, along with places like Frant etc, but Im sure there is probably a lot more choice in venues now. So Im coming home at the end of March and Id be interested in getting back into some serious fishing. Ive got a motorhome so Im happy to travel. Where do you guys recommend?1

If it's big carp you're after, and you've got a motor home, I'd strongly suggest coming to France for the odd few days Tel. Some whoppers over here.TEL said:When I lived in England I used to go Carp fishing regularly, and really enjoyed it.

I was thinking of doing a few days in France, can you suggest some locations? My biggest Carp was from a private lake I used to fish between Sevenoaks and Westerham and weighed just over 27lb...not a monster, but one I wont foget in a hurry as it probably hadnt been caught for many years as nobody fished the lake.i_b_b_o_r_g said:

Booked a Ferry from Portsmouth to St Malo on 14th April....just checking out a few sites now which have fishing available2

In the end I fished a lake up near Peterborough and had 18 carp out over one evening session and a full day. Nothing huge really but up to 8-9lbs but very good sport.
I then fished Sumners Ponds, which was noisy and full of kids taking delight in throwing rocks into the water. However I had a Bream coming in around 7lb and a beautiful Mirror Carp at 23lb 3oz. Despite having booked for another 3 days there, I decided that It would be best to leave before the kids joined the rocks at the bottom of the lake.
I stayed at a beautiful campsite in Normandy close to Bayeux, however Im convinced it was barren as I didnt see a single fish caught there in four days.
Back again in August to test my new Dwarf rods to the full. Have motorhome will travel....2 -
Had my new pb mirror @ 42-9-0 over easter
Lovely golden fish
The lakes we know nothing about are the best
Always love a challenge
Although im looking for a nice syndicate to join must be picturesque and not silly money1 - Sponsored links:

I hate Sumner's (during the WE) it's my local and it's always full of kids on the weekend, the bar is good though for a nice cold one while you fish and the restaurant has some tasty foods!TEL said:In the end I fished a lake up near Peterborough and had 18 carp out over one evening session and a full day.

Isn't the bottom best to fish, especially when it's cold?

This was my first catch of 5 yesterday, annoyingly battery went soon after! Guy in opposite swim got a 24lb carp which was easier to land than the 5lb eel he then got.0

Don’t know what it’s stocked with but maybe worth asking him if you can try it out.
Not sure if it’s a commercial enterprise or private.
Just Googled it, (Lee Bowyer fishing), it looks fantastic and is open to the public.
It’s in the Ardennes champagne region!1 -
He own Bows Lake and another which are both next to Gigantica, well known in the carp worldSoundAsa£ said:
