MATCH FISHING AT THE POND

Any body who would be interested in a match at the pond in the next 2-3 weeks could you leave some feedback towards the idea. I am wanting JUNIORS - SENIORS for the forth coming matches.


Thanks craig (bailiff)

Count me in

We have the Chris Elsby match that needs organising first.

Looking forward to that mate let me know when we have a date and I will tell Lois his wife she said she would like to come and present the Trophy

I am away for 4 days next week, i leave Tuesday the 5th and am back on the 10th. I will start getting something organised regarding the match when i get back.

ill try and get to as many matches as i can but definatly be there for the charity/memorial matches as will Sammy

Great stuff

Yes mate im really interested for the junior and Joe Brown (my best mate) will aswell! But please make it a weekend or preferably on a sunday I can't wait!

:'( Ok mate. I don't want to sound a snob but I hope there is a junior game for JUST juniors!

Thanks anyway :/

There will be junior matches mate if we can get enough interest have a word with Simon he is match Secretary
He will be sorting all the matches out so we don't get double bookings

Brill mate, is he on the forum because I want to ask him a question then, if not could you ask him. What is the max age for a junior match? Hopefully 14 because 15 year olds will probably thrash us (not that im bad)

Thanks

It will be 16 and under mate but you will find loads of older members that will be happy to show you techniques to make you a better match fisherman the best way to learn is to keep trying ask watch and listen

Yes I suppose so Did you give a quiver tip to sell on saturday?

Yes still got it

dont let it worry you about getting beaten when you first start match fishing. just keep practicing and watching other anglers dont be afraid to ask them questions if your polite you will find that they will allways be willing to show you and explain what and why they fish a certain way or have changed a rig when they are fishing.
you are lucky really my daughter is to old for the juniors , by time she was 15 she had 57 trophies inc twice 16 and under cambridgeshire 16 & under overall champion, cambridgeshire girls under 18 champion and also had fished for 3 different junior nationals for different teams.
Just keep practising watching dvds ect when i com up to pond yur welcome to come down and fish/ watch

We are going to start getting some matches organised shortly, i am away till saturday, but when i get back we will make a start. We will also be having some junior matches too at some stage, and providing we can get enough interest. The junior matches will be for under 16's, as thats the age limit for our junior members, and dont worry about getting beaten, i have seen some brilliant young anglers, some can put the older ones to shame.

The first match we have will be the Chris Elsby memorial match. I'll sort a date out soon, Steve, probably looking end of June

That's sounds good to me Simon can we make Hayden's match as near to the 5th of September as possible please as that was his birthday obviously needs to be a weekend for them that work and the 5th falls on a Wednesday I think mate

well the 2 matches for cris and hayden my name is down for both to start with im not missing those

No problem at all for Haydens match, the closest weekend date for that would be the 1st or 8th of September. Let me know when you would like it, Saturday or Sunday, either before or after the 5th, and we will work it out for you.

Sunday before would be good

The 2nd then, i'll make a note of it. This match to be called the "Hayden West memorial match"..?

Yes mate that's right thanks

Thanks you for the tips mate, can't wait!

Thanks Craig
