- Hi my names Ben
I love fishing and have been fishing since i was 13 so 14 long years of good days and bad days!!
I mainly fish around Bishop's Stortford on the River Stort and on some occasions goto lakes for a breather (fishing rivers can be hard as nails at times!)
i love the challenge of fishing for fish that haven't been caught before, a big river carp is next on my target list and obviously trying to improve on my other river PB's
If anyone that fishes the Stort wants a chat then that would be great, share tips etc :)

My challenge....to catch a 3Ib Perch
Well it has been a quiet year for me so far due to other commitments but have just started fishing again and having bagged my target 3Ib perch I'd thought i'd just sit back and relax and just catch whatever turns up!
unfortunately me being me I love to stalk fish, so there I was after a 3 month break on my hands and knees down the River Lea with just a hook and bread, 20 minutes later and i'd had a 4Ib and a 5Ib 8oz Chub and then packed up and quit while I was ahead!
I guess I will never change, I can't sit still for very long you see!!
well i'm going back there today to try for a 6 (will be my first 6 from the Lea if I manage it!)
tight lines all
