First off were not on your club lake and no we are not supposed to be match anglers were supposed to be a group off people who like all aspects of angling. And the reason three pound thing is bollocks is because people like you are scared of getting beaten by some one who just wants a day out fishing for what they can catch. that is s*** you are speaking mate i bet you are one of the bivvy divies that sit for days on end and put about 20 pound of boilies in and wait for a carp and if you dont catch you are still made up

Give me 1 reason why if i catch a fish of 3lb-2oz it only counts as 3lb. And by the way i dont own a bivi but i,m quite sure there are a few on here that do. And also enjoy fishing for big fish.

smudge mate you have read it wrong what i posted in our club match carp only count as 3 pound at home matches if we were fishing away match carp count as full weight by the way its only carp count as 3 pound if i get a 4 pound bream at home it counts full weight the club brought the rule out yrs ago to stop people sitting for 5 hrs for one big fish

i dont think we should have the 3 lb rule all fish should count their true weight, the less rules the better i say
mathew....if the little one is due round then give her a good seeing to the week before the match the prostaglandin in your jizz brings them on, the little un will be born and so theres no excuse to stay in, pity the match is full we could of put their name down for the match

Take my name off the list - all this has got out of hand.
I had wanted to just turn up & fish, but there are people on here who just want to stir things up and create a nasty atmosphere. That's not my idea of fun - and I'm not paying money for something I don't want to do.
Alan - move someone off the reserve list into my place - life's too short for this crap.

Sorry you feel that way Marky,I agree this thread has got a little out of hand and we never had any intention of this 3lb fish rule anyway,so dont see why it needs bring up.
Im sure it will not ruin the christmas match and itll still be nice and friendly,you dont want to miss bigdave in his santa outfit!

Well spoken to the Mrs. And I reckon she won the bout. So I don't think I would be able to make it for this one. Sorry about it guys. Have a good one.. There go's my lift so it looks as though I am out as well. Good luck with the little one Mathew hope all is well. Hope the rest of you have a good fight match. Cheers Woody PS For what its worth I for one agree that all fish caught should be weighed in at the full weight - I once lost a club cup match to a youngster who was ledgering with lob worm and caught a 9lb carp with minutes to go, his only fish. I had over 7lb of hard won bits. It was annoying but that lad is probably still telling the tale of the cup he won when he was a lad.

Cant believe any serious club would adopt the stance of penalising what amounts to specimine fish. A usual fishing club is full of local lads having the craic and usually anything goes.Most can give and take the banter (you have to) At the end of the day a fish is a fish and if an angler wants to sit for 5 hrs waiting for one bite then thats up to him. You pays your money you can do as you please within fishery rules. If the big un comes along then fine, if not you blank. Please lads dont start taking the matches seriously there is not hundreds of pounds up for grabs, they should be run as a get together between fellow North West anglers with a couple of quid pools to add a bit of fun. If you are over serious you should go and fish some of the big opens or join a winter league team.

agree with that owddrynet, but i dont think this argument is as strong as it seems, and I hope it does'nt put some of the lads off as after all, it's a friendly sweepstake.

I've join the past 2 matches with the guys at FM and the whole idea was to get out and enjoy ourselves. It doesn't really matter who wins or how much the winner gets. It's really all about getting the title bar under the name and the unlimited friendly insults that makes it all fun during the matches And not to mention a good days out fishing and enjoying the tight lines I might not be able to make it for the match.. but i might just drop by for an hour or so to have a look and take a few photos
