After enjoying the first one i am looking forward to more myself. If somebody wants to organise the next one they can put my name down providing i am off that day. Maybe we can book somewhere that has fish in this time The only problem i see is booking a place and people having to cancel. This means the peg fees will come out of the winnings. Does anybode want to organise the next one? I ll leave it with you all to fight over

Cheers Dave.
I think a weekend would be the best bet. Lets throw a few dates in.
Sat 15 July Sun 16 July.
Sat 22 July Sun 23 July
Sat 29 July Sun 30 July
I can fish any of the sundays but only one of the saturdays.
I say we make it a sunday as most people wil be of work. We might have a problem booking a sun though as i feel they will all be booked up

Sundays would be better for me and ukfisher due to work,with regards venues theres loads of small lakes where you should be able to book,best bet would be to give a small deposit if required say £20 and arrange so you only pay for the pegs you use.Pools would need to be increased to cover the peg fee so you would probably be looking at about £12 all in. An evening match is a great idea at this time of year,thats the problem with match fishing you always fish the worst time of day.

I'm looking forward to fishing some matches myself, I'm gutted I missed Sundays match, I know my knack of foulhooking bonus fish would have won me the match. Oh well, I'm still unbeaten. ha ha ;D

Lets throw a few in the hat and take it from there.

One way to get around the problem of cancellations is to get everyone who is planning to go to send a check for the cost of the peg to the organiser (whoever that lucky s*d is , so that even if you cancel at the last minute, the people who turn up will not be out of pocket

Thats a great idea "send a cheque to the organiser."
Off the top of my head Moat House Fishery Warrington,its a small lake with a funny shaped island has about 12 pegs,I think you can book the whole lake for £45 dont think Youll have a problem booking it for an evening match. I think its only fair that you try and book a venue more central to everybody.
