Merry Christmas to all our members
As 2007 is slowly draing to an end and the winter weather is finally setting in I thought it would be a good idea to give a small progress report on how things are going here at Carp Fishing Forums.
FishingFriends is seemingly taking forever to get going, ive beensolely devoting all my spare time to it, and believe me it's not a simple script to write. Some bits are currently working like member searches, member information, the approvals system. Next on the plan of things to do is write some form of private real-time-chat system so approved buddies can directly chat to each other, kind of a simplified version of MSN messenger but without all the snazzy features like file sharing etc.
If there are any other features that you thing would be a good idea please post in the dedicated thread in the off-topic forum.
The news will be updated shortly but for now we are concentrating our efforts on the FF system.

| Updates for September |
Well, firstly I'd like to appologise for the site being down yesterday, we are unsure what happened and we are currently in contact with the datacentre to make sure this is not going to be an ongoing problem.
Unfortunately there just wasnt the time available this month to overhaul the photo gallery, dont worry we havnt forgotten, were just doing our homework this time round to make sure that we get exactly what we want and that it has as many features as we need and still be user friendly. Most of the one's we have seen so far would need everyone to get a degree in IT. We are going to start publishing the newsletters at the end of this month (i know we havnt released any yet via email!).
One thing worth mentioning, if you have Windows Vista then you can get the latest info from the forum directly on your desktop in the widget rss reader. If you'd like more info on that please have a look at our RSS info page, the link is on the lower left hand side in one of the sideboxes.

| Carp Forums Site News July 07 |
Things have been a bit hectic around here of late, what with the move to a new server and lots of upgrades we are currently working on new articles and areas on the site so here's a little bit of info so you can know what the future of Carp Fishing Forums holds.
News Archive SectionThis is currently live and can be found by clicking the Carp News link on the top menu, here you will find nicely presented news from the world of carp fishing with some other angling information thrown in for good measure Tackle Shop Links DirectoryAt last the links directory is looking something like a link directory albeit there are only a few links in there now, but we are aiming for it to be one of the most comprehensive guides to UK tackle shops, already the directory can be sorted by tackle shop name in alphabetical order or by county in alphabetical order and the results filtered by what services the tackle shop offers i.e custom rod building or baitmaking ingredients & equipment. If anyone knows any good shops with some details then please PM meor any other admin and we'll get them added. Please bear in mind that its still under development so some things might be a bit glitchy and if you notice anything wrong then again please PM us to let us know. In addition to this we're still working on our Youtube videos. The next one in the series will show you how to make your own boilies from off the shelf base mixes and additives.
we hope you stick with us as the site grows and evolves and we're aiming to make this one of the best carp fishing resources on the net so please tell your friends, family and local tackle shop staff as the more members we have the better the site will be.
Thanks
Carp-Fish Admin Team.

Here's some news on the latest carp tackle, baits and accessories to be hitting the tackle shop shelves:
Pondskater Bait Boat

The Orca has a self-righting ability so its unlikely to end up upside down, it also has a built in failsafe to prevent you from sailing it out of transmitter range, the sleek design prevents vegetation snagging it up and it also features a unique sliding bait delivery system meaning its capable of handling more types of bait than some of the flap-door designs do. These are expected to retail around £300 for more info have a look on fishing tackle, uk fishing tackle shop, discount fishing tackle, fishing tackle online, carp fishing tackle, sea fishing tackle, fly fishing tackle, mail order fishing tackle - TackleShop.co.uk

| Carp Fishing News June 07 |
The closed season has finally ended and for those of you who belong to angling clubs that still enforce a closed season are itching to get back on the bank and land a few decent carp, I know I am.
Well, there hasnt been much in the way of carp fishing news so to speak otherwise i'dhave made more of an update however there is some site news that might be of interest especially to our beginner carp anling members. Our series of carp fishing tutorials on Youtube has been doing quite well so far, the hair rig tutorial has been viewed over 700 times since it was added at the beginning of the month and we have just added a new video which is kind of a guided tour around a typical two rod carp fishing setup with some details about reels, bite alarms, bobbins etc.
With the new season just starting we're very hopeful that the forum will grow as hopefully our existing members will continue to spread the word on what the site is about. Hopefully this year will see us attending some of the carp shows and events so there should be plenty of photos from those appearing steadily. Dont forget that to add your pictures to the photo gallery you need to be a registered member (which is totally free and is a pretty painless process) and then you can share them with the rest of us.
