YoungParisian_inExile Travis_Bickle as opposed to ocean fishing , lake fishing, very popular in France , so much so that Le Monde did a big feature on it. Gets people out , you don’t need much gear, off their phones, healthy activity. What’s wrong with that ?
Djpekingman YoungParisian_inExile It does sound pretty pretentious 'Urban Street fishing' ffs. They never called it that on the Leeds Liverpool navvy. It was just fishing. Even angling was not an 'in vogue' term. Mate of mine calls it fishing, end of. No poncey terms required.
otis Djpekingman read the mags (fishing ones Angling times etc). All want to make it sexy and why not if it gets young uns involved But you are right its just fishing on the navvy or river. Just sexier and as @YoungParisian_inExile will tell you, the clobber they can sell to old bastards (moi), hit the youth and yer laughing
YoungParisian_inExile @Djpekingman @Travis_Bickle It’s been termed Urban or street as there’s been a huge uptake with teens in urban areas as opposed to ocean fishing where you need a boat or in nature where you might need a car to get there . I think it’s a positive thing. Much like downhill mountain biking is called that and a road bike is that and not just a bike or rugby with 13 players is League and not just rugby & I could go on , but hey ……….
otis YoungParisian_inExile if i was young again I wouldn't want to be wearing that cameo gear either .Hence ace new look 👍
YoungParisian_inExile otis graphics are based on the ‘Le Serpent du Pont Neuf’ a mythical Loch Ness style monster living in the waters around Pont Neuf , where we were shooting and the boys were fishing.
YoungParisian_inExile Odd_Job La Seine is clean and has real fish in it now. Magnet fishing in city canals ... Steptoe and Son look 😁 I am doing a 'hook a duck' event though 😇
Placid YoungParisian_inExile Thats some fish that.. @otis is OMJ's resident Vic Marks.. Bet he's pulled sommat like that out before. What is it a Babel of some description?
Travis_Bickle No, no, no. Or should I say non, non, non. Everyone knows. When you catch a big fish, you have to hold it up in front of you whilst wearing a camo top and a Daiwa baseball cap. At night. By a pond near Donny.....😉
