First pike session of 2024. New venue. Baitcaster I'd never used. One bird's nest.

Second cast — 7lb pike on the Replicant. First session, first fish 🎣

Asked pike anglers for venue tips before my first season.

Got told to bugger off. Repeatedly.

One full season later — I completely get it. Everything I learned is on the blog 👇

@echocharles Jocko store email just landed.. Typo in the subject line. Bruh. Independence.

Made a typo on a mailing list to thousands of people? Good. More opportunity to learn to spell.

Last coarse session of the season. New venue. Carp chaos at Sutton Bingham Reservoir.

Also — are there pike in there? Those silvers were scattering in a very suspicious way 👀

He's 9. He caught an 11lb mirror carp on a match rod, fishing inches from the bank at Scary Cary.

New personal best. Proper scrap. Absolutely loving it.

Took my eldest fishing. He outfished me completely, then landed a 9-10lb mirror carp on a match rod.

I just held the net and tried to look useful 😅

The river season is open! 🎣 First river session of the season on the River Yeo this weekend.

Anyone else getting out? Where are you heading and what are you targeting? #RiverSeason #UKFishing #SomersetFishing #CoarseFishing #RiverFishing

[Paul Murphy @Angler_PaulM]

-4°C on the River Yeo. Ice in the rod guides. Found a shopping trolley. Blanked.

Still went. Still worth it. Sometimes a blank is just reconnaissance in disguise 🎣

@CenterSuppt729 THIS IS A SCAM

[Paul Murphy @Angler_PaulM]

@sHisenseuk To follow up THIS IS A SCAM.

[Paul Murphy @Angler_PaulM]

@HisenseUK Hi there, I bought a TV through Argos 3 months ago, and now there is are 3 lines half way down the screen and it flickers and half of the picture is grey. Is this covered under 1 year manufacturers warranty? Thanks.

[Paul Murphy @Angler_PaulM]

@sHisenseuk Just to flag, someone from Kenya contacted me via WhatsApp. Asking me to share my details and then they would transfer me the funds. Sounded awfully like a scam, I challenged them, and said let me speak to Argos direct, they cut me off.

@sHisenseuk This page is a scam. Joined Jan 2026.

@azealiaslacewig @TheNotoriousMMA @ChrisWillx didn't you say you were a Conor fan?

[Paul Murphy @Angler_PaulM]

Discover Ash Fishery, a secluded treasure near the Somerset Levels in the tranquil village of Martock. Abundant with carp, roach, rudd, and bream, it's perfect for a day of reeling in big catches. Highly recommended for enthusiastic anglers! #FishingFun https://t.co/JOFxvc27Bh

@AsdaServiceTeam tried repeatedly to place an order across 3 different cards and 2 different people. Card details not recognised.
