"A few years ago, I faced a devastating loss when my younger brother tragically passed away in a serious car accident. As you can imagine, this profoundly affected my mental health, and I found myself searching for solace. That's when I turned to fishing, seeking refuge in the tranquility of the water. Yet, I often embarked on these angling journeys alone, as I didn't have many friends who shared the same passion for fishing.It was during this time that I stumbled upon an angling community on Facebook. One day, I received an invitation to join a group social event, and I decided to give it a try. Little did I know that this would mark the beginning of an incredible journey. Meeting those fellow anglers, who hailed from all corners of the UK, felt like reconnecting with long-lost brothers. Despite never having met them before, there was an immediate sense of kinship and camaraderie.

Since that momentous meeting, I took on the role of event planning within that vibrant angling community. Over the past few years, we organized some unforgettable gatherings, drawing participants from all walks of life. We've had the privilege of hosting seasoned anglers who've generously shared their expertise and knowledge, and we've welcomed newcomers to the sport, guiding them toward personal bests and memorable catches. Today, I believe it's Totally Mad Carp Socials time to shine. We're determined to extend the magic of these social events to anglers across the UK. Together, we aspire to create something truly extraordinary, fostering connections, and forging unforgettable memories along the way."
