Some Of The Decisions A Would-Be Angler Has To Make
Pursuing my career has not allowed me enough time to relax, so I've decided to abandon the career. Actually it was my doctor who decided for me. He, it was, who suggested that by taking up fishing for carp I would get the fresh air and relaxation that I needed.
It's been ages since I held a rod and that rod was, I seem to remember, a 12ft split cane. If I was to become an angler, I would have to decide which particular area I was to focus on. What kind of fishing should I take up - fly fishing, trout fishing, or salmon? Carp was my choice, but only after I'd given the matter a lot of thought.
This is not because I know anything about Carp fishing - I just happened to choose it. If I was going to take up angling, I want to get the most from it and carp fishing seemed like a good place to start. Getting the most from angling, for me, is not about winning trophies or getting the elusive big one (at least not yet) it's about relaxing and learning something new.
When the competitive instinct inevitably arises it will act as an incentive to make me spend more time learning both in the library and at the water's edge.
This is going to be easy.
Getting into angling is going to be easy, or so I thought. I know absolutely nothing about fishing because I've spent years and years sitting behind a desk. I have so much to learn but it's going to be an enjoyable experience.
I'm making a list of tackle I am likely to need and intend buying second-hand on the internet. No sooner had the internet shown me, among other items, a Greys spod rod than I was confused. A spod rod - what? Apparently it's a feed delivery technique. In my day it was a few maggots in a catapult, but heck, live and learn that's my philosophy.
I've learnt at least two important things about carp: the biggest are seldom members of a school, and they are not easily persuaded to take my bait. Carp are gregarious creatures but the bigger ones tend to be stand offish. This could be the reason why they get to be so big, and these are the ones I should aim to catch.
A new carp fishing friend explained the one thing that I do need to concentrate on is water craft. This is not the kind of craft that ply the water but the craft of understanding, for example, the clues about where to stand to be most likely to catch fish. There's only one way of acquiring these skills and that's by experience. Reading on its own will not be enough.
I can get only so far, fishing for carp, with books; it's experience that I'll be needing most of all.
I will not be able to hook the big ones until I've spent a lot of time learning from experienced anglers and practising the lessons I've learnt. When I've finished the practising stage I might consider going for a trophy.

Repierce my belly button?
I had my belly button pierced over a year ago and after 2 months it rejected . I lost the ball to my belly ring that it wad pierced with and was forced to change it to a dangly one . the ring cane straight through my navel so I could take my belly button and split it in half . My naval is red and kinda saggy but I've been dying to get it re done . advice ?
Hey,
I'm unsure by what you mean when you said you could take your belly button and split it in half, but my advice is this. You should wait until your belly button completely heals; take off the ring and leave it to heal. It may take six months up to a year for it to completely heal before you can get it re-pierced. I understand you want to get it redone asap, but patience may actually pay off. Aggravating a piercing site will only make the situation worse. Also, when you get it re-pierced, try not to wear dangly ones before they are completely healed. Healing a belly button piercing takes some effort. Good luck!
