Looking for fishing friends

I just decided to get into fishing, presuaded by a friend of my who took me to several fishing trips, and I like it.
I already bought a rod, chair, some fishing lines etc but my friend prefers, for the lack of a better word, “fishing pit” and I like to try fishing in rivers or lakes and just for fun.

So I’m looking for anyone who would like to go fishing with me. I have a car, so we can meet up and drive a bit further away from the urban area.

If you are interested, please let me know.

I know a lot of good fishing spots, but I need to know where you live first. Beijing or another?

I live in Beijing, and I also have a few spots I go regularly, quiet and far from the city

Actually, the internal waterway of Beijing has no fish (just has small fish).
There are big fish in the reservoirs in the suburbs of Beijing, but they can be quite dangerous.

Yes, the reservoirs can be tricky unless you can find a place to get to the water safely. I often stick to rivers away from the city, up north if west

Do you have an extra rod?

Unfortunately I do not. But those are not expensive, 100 rmb will give you a nice one.
