I prefer a challenge when I fish so I prefer not to go for the pasties that are stocked so much by Carp fisheries give me a wild river or French Lake or the open sea shore

and I'll fish for days to catch one fish and I don't care what species it is as long as I can say I caught a fish. I feel htere are too many "specialist" anglers who decry certain natural fish because they want to catch a Big XYZ

No contest mate. Rivers by a long shot. And natural or estate lakes.

yea defo rivers a fishery now and then in the summer for carp on the top

as i said earlier i kinda pointed out that i love bagging up on little carp up to 5lb, ive been today at lakeview for a pleasure session. was really slow to start off with a few bby carp up to 10 oz, put down margins for 5 minutes or so on corn over hemp and bang!, 2 minutes later a lovely 3 n a half pound f1 in the net! bonus!, a few smaller carp to 2lb and i was into a real monster, must of been 5lb plus n i wasnt xconcentrating and it went into the snags!, lost hook!< end of session, pack up with a hefty 15lb of winter carp

i agree with clabby

natural is the best,,,,but i like a few at a commercial fishery

im not saying that u diont like exploring rivers as you never jnow what your going to get and when. But on commercials your ever trying to beat your record bagging so thats pretty good aswell
