Having been a fan of "NotDesTaylor" for many years it was an honour to finally meet the legend himself. I made my introductions and mentioned my carp fishing website and straight away "NotDesTaylor" said he would be more than happy to offer advice to potential readers on how to set up at
the bank in an efficient and organized fashion, thus eliminating clumsy angling & potential trips & falls bankside. So below is some of the nuggets of wisdom that my fishing hero was willing to pass on.
An efficient setup leaving everything to hand and in sensible positions will make your carp fishing easier. This was the nugget of
fishing advice that Simon gave me on first meeting him. See his immaculate setup below:

Being organized should eliminate clumsy angling and potential trips and falls on the bankside
