No one’s perfect, mate. Everyone has their insecurities. I know people who are university graduates and are highly skilled, confident around people, but are utterly terrified by social media. End of the day, mate, who are you to judge anyone? Fishing is fishing, rock climbing is rock climbing, or whatever the activity might be. But actually putting those activities on show on social media just doesn’t appeal to everyone.

It’s just fishing. I Understand being self conscious around your boss at work or in front of your friends or family maybe but down a carp lake who cares. That’s where you should go to relax and forget that shit. Typical of today’s youth though too busy worrying about what they look like or how they come across than enjoying the moment.

@@craykooo8947you’ve completely missed the point I made. This lad is doing what older anglers have been doing, just going fishing to relax. The only thing he’s avoiding is social media. That’s all he’s saying.

Not everyone stays at the same lake there whole life fishing for the same carp. Keyboard bashing. Everyone gets that feeling showing up to new lakes especially hard ones. So I would suggest find something challenging not just a club water with 1000 carp in it
