I'll pop down for a mooch as well - be nice to meet a few faces off here and I may even pick up a tip or two while i'm at it - It would be a first if I do

Best go watch that Quest baits vid on how to cat 160 yds then I can woop all your arses in the casting comp !!

i'm the good lookin one

[dave]

Did anybody manage to attend this event last week? I thought the lads involved may have given us an update. How did it go gents?

[stes]

yer it was a good weekend neil smith won the match so he won his own prices back lol but h is going to sell it and give the money to charity so thats good. Any way back to the match the fishing was vey slow with only two people catching the weather was great but sadly it p!ssed it down all day sunday. So that was a shame as it put every one off coming down to the main events which most were no done anyway due to the rain.
