SO WHAT'S IT ALL ABOUT ?

My name is Kevin Allen the organiser of the charity matches,    5 years ago my wife was diagnosed with breast cancer a grade 3 tumour , as you can imagine this turned our life's upside down , only the people and their families  who go through this horrible disease (cancer) can imagine how it tears your life apart. She has now had several very painful operations chemo, radiotherapy, and some very dark days to get where she is now ,   the surgeons worked their magic  and touch wood she has pulled through  and is now enjoying her life with  me  and our 2 young sons, for that we owe a great debt to them all.

It was Then I decided to give something back to show our appreciation and to help others in the same situation,  it was then that I  thought of organizing a fishing match ,as I am a regular on the open match circuit to  me  this was the ideal way to raise money to help others .

We have now been running 4 years and raised just over £9000, the event is now the biggest charity open fishing match in the UK at the present  time  with 228 anglers taking part in 2007 in one match.   Why is it called the big bash ? that's the name that it was given by a few anglers last year and it seems to have stuck ,  and it seems to fit rather well .This year we have 350 anglers with their names down to take part.

The event is held at the prolific Lindholme lakes Nr Doncaster , In my and many others opinion this is the best venue in the north of England, it now boasts 8 very well stocked lakes on the complex . the owners Neil and Bev are probably the friendliest owners you could wish to meet , Neil's banter once heard would not be forgotten he really does make it a great day,  all in all a fantastic couple.

There just is not anywhere big enough apart from Lindholme lakes to hold this event in the north of England 

The 2007 event attracted so many big names in angling such as 5 times world champion  ALAN  SCOTHORNE, & SANDRA his wife ,  PAUL YATES, VINNY SMITH, fisho mania winner  ROB HITCHENS, STEVE ROTHERY to name but a small hand full.

We have a fantastic sponsor for the 2008 event in carp vader bait company www.carpvader.com , Vicky & Nick  have done so much for this event this year , for this I thank them with all my heart . they are very special people .
