Hi to everyone, I'm into my second season of carp fishing and enjoy spending my weekends fishing my local clubs waters which l am now beggining to master with regular succes. I am looking at booking a small session at the Pads lake for next year and in preparation for this l have been reading through all the posts that have info about the lake and the tactics/baits used etc.. l have found the posts very useful, but now comes my dumb question............ on some of the posts people have mentioned fishing with "slack lines". l haven't come across this term yet so..........(wait for it)......................can someone please explain for me what this means??? http://www.rmcangling.co.uk/forum/images/graemlins/confused.gif

Hi, thanks for clearing this up for me Darren, l'm with Eastleigh District at the moment so l mostly fish their waters, l'm concentrating on getting to know Lakeside better at the moment recent catches include 18lb 4oz / 18lb 8oz commons and a 21lb 12oz mirror. l've fished Broadlands a few times but never caught anything http://www.rmcangling.co.uk/forum/images/graemlins/frown.gif
