Just wanted to get this board off and running.
I feel that my interest in all things fish stems from my love off fishing. I started back when i was 10 when i bought a Woolies Special 6ft rod outfit for £5 and went and caught a 2lb Jack Pike, been fishing for pike since.
I have also done Trout, and sea fishing in the past but my main love is sitting beside a loch waiting for the line to start screaming off the reels.
So anyone one else keep fish due to thier interest in fishing?
Fish keeping and Fishing.
I have been a retired fisherman for a number of years now. I've still got all my gear but neither me or my brother seem to be able to find the time to go anymore. I can't imagine telling my Mrs I'm going fishing for three days. Towards the end of my fishing days I use to go for Carp, nothing beats the adrenalin pump of trying to land a big fish.
fish on! fish keeping...
i've been fishing since i was 10, and have only recently started keeping fish( 4 years ago) I catch and release except when I'm hungry , trout in the winter, bass ,catfish in the summer.

Hi mykil,
I used to go fishing years ago but I just don't seem to have the time to go these days. It's funny how being a fisherman eventually leads to fishkeeping, my brother has also recently got into keeping fish.
I noticed that you have a 24" silver Aro, have you got any pictures of the fella? I have been toying with the idea of getting an asian aro, I would love to get a chilli/blood red but they cost a packet.
Regards.
Adam
