Around 50 years ago, when I fished Roundhay Park Lake, there was a fella who fished "Caster" on the Fly rod & did very well with some Big Roach. I used to also fish The Nidd (Hammerton Mill & railway length) and the Wharfe (Easedyke, Gimston park & Ouston farm)

Those old Silstar rods are underrated. After experimenting with lighter and heavier rods, the 2 lb Silstar carp rod is my favourite bit of barbel tackle. Photos show it bending a perfect 90 degree arc to the butt, in a way modern rods never do. Sometimes older is better. Impossible to imagine a 2lb test curve rod being labelled "carp" nowadays. Managed a 9 pounder out of a snaggy swim, and forgiving for chub and smaller fish.

The rod used to me my uncles, who gave it to me. The tip has been replaced with a quiver tip section.

I see you also have wood pigeons signalling 'RI, RI, RI' in morse code.
