I just need confirmation from my social secretary that we haven't anything else planned that weekend as it's too close to her birthday to make the decision myself

What's the bank like on this stretch for getting keepnets in? Is it rocky?

Have a platform barrow if need to sit out in the water but don't have a seat box and all the scaffolding to attach stuff to

Cheers for heads up @Yuccaman . Got plans, but thanks anyway. Good cause that and tight lines all.

Generally OK - certainly not like the battle some had at Sheldon's. I do sometimes put my box just in the very edge of the water there, but you've mainly got 4-6ft of water under your rod tip. The exception is if you draw near the outflow which is rockier, but has the advantage of often being some of the better pets. If you are planning to feeder fish, then you can generally be on the bank quite happily.

I'll bring my Rigger XL platform/barrow along and if I am on a peg where I don't need it then someone is welcome to use it for the duration of the match.

Match has only been posted less than 24 Hours and over halfway filled already, so looking good. I am hoping for a warm day but overcast so the bream come out to play.

 

[Peter]

Need to check a few things before committing to this one.

 

[notneeded]

Hope you all have a good day .

@Yuccaman thanks mate this will break my trent virginity, I'll be able to tick it off my fishing bucket list to boot. I thought it would fill fast it's a real bucket list venue for those outside the area.

Absolutely! Being that the club I’m in control it, it seemed like the perfect venue for this
