Hey!

About the Fat Lip picture.

I notice that you have a quick changer/snap swivel on and then a hook attached to it.

Isn't this just adding to much metal to the end of your line. Carp are pretty metal shy and spit out bait the minute they feel anything unnatural. I always thought it was better to have the hook tied directly to the line.

Any thoughts...

Good going Mumbaikar's
Nice Catch
well done!!!!!!!
good to see old man Freddie

This has all the maing of another Rustom Bana / Owen Bosen special ... bets anyone ?????

Hi Guys,
I had a wonderful time with the group at powai. Cool bunch of dudes! arent we? i also suggest we meet quite frequent. (now that we have Ali's machan ready, we havent to worry of those who get knocked down after a couple of drinks)

I visit powai lake on 2nd and 4th Sat (this week i am out of town, so want be making it) guys you are welcomed to join me.

Hey, i would be in pune sometime around the weekend, can i do some fishing there... any body on the forum to help me.

Hey Vishal,

It was nice meeting you. I will be taking membership mostly in this week and we all should definitely meet up at least couple of times a month for some fishing..

For fishing in Pune, send sanjay55 a PM.

It was great meeting up with the Mumbai gang.
Thanks Vishal / Fred / Ali / Santosh / Yaj... Did i miss any one ???
Some great fish in there but some sad tactics employed to catch them.
Come on guys surely you can change things??
Fat lips or gobi is also called Korvae in the eastern parts. It is a scavenger and does not grow more than 6 to 8 ".
Just could not remember the name that day Santosh.

Thanks Owen,

Completely agree with you. Rather sit by the water and catch nothing.

What the hell am I seeing, you guys took Owen on a foul-hooking frenzy?

Hey Bobby- Welcome back... They've got Freddie too.... And the bugger has a smile on his face

Great Going Tosh !!!! looks like youre gonna beat all of us .....what with youre flexi timings !!!!!!

Freddy,
you converting to freshwater frenzy? I dont believe this...my last hope of learning saltwater fishing just took a freshwater dive in Powai, with a smile , at that..

Asif .. no mate .no freshwater frenzy - just cayching up with some real good company and human being --Sanotosh / Ali / Jawad/ Vishal/ Virendra / Yaj --- all great guys .. keep yourself Free in the 2nd week of Ocober -- Thursday to Sunday --- will make a salty out of you YET

Great going guys.. Good catches.. Nice to see that not all the fish are being foul-hooked
