Yeah but you start with a 200lb handicap ?

Gotta be 300lb for Gazza then

I would go along with that after, all he has 'home' advantage.

 

[Scribe]

Decided after seeing the weather today, that I should make sure I am prepared for the match, so have one of these on order.

[Dave Spence]

If I'm in Ireland by October, could anyone put me up for a couple of nights (Covid 19 permitting) so I can do the match? I would hate to deprive @Peter and @Dave of a nugget by none attendance.

 

[notneeded]

I see Dirk and Luke had been putting the miles in at lakeview becoming lake experts , and yes Luke I've been twice ?

 

[Dave Spence]

Really sorry boys but I am afraid that I will have to scratch. We have had an offer accepted on a house in Ireland and it looks like we will be over the water in early September. I am posting the prizes to @Scribe and I will be looking at the results with baited breath. @Peter and @Dave I am gutted that I won't be depriving you of a nugget but we will have a knock up on the river Barrow when I get settled.

 

[Peter]

Gutted fella but at least you've saved yourself the loss of a couple of Nuggets.
Bit extreme leaving the country though.

@Peter I am now a UKZ; in other words a poor pensioner, we have to cover all eventualities in the fight to protect our nuggets.

@Dave Spence as excuses reasons go it's a pretty good one. Seriously though Dave you will be missed - I had better take two lighters to the match as now I can't rely on you being there to cadge a light from.

Hope the move goes smoothly mate and thank you for giving all the prizes to me, that's saved me having to buy a raffle ticket.

@ATTICUS FINCH being first on the reserve list you slide into the now vacant berth.

@ATTICUS FINCH being first on the reserve list you slide into the now vacant berth.

Sorry you can’t make it Dave.
That’s a big berth to fill. You could get the ‘Bec’ half of next reserve ‘Beckem’ in there too... ?

@Dave Spence - Don't beat yourself up too much, just make a donation instead

Where - Lakeview Fishery

The fishery is very accessible with a straight run from the A46 and has superb facilities and there will be more than enough room with two or even three lakes available if we need them.

As an incentive (bribe) I will put up three of Melton Mowbray's finest pork pies for 1.2 & 3 rd places.

We have exclusive use of the following lakes which will give each angler an empty peg to one side.

Marina - 24 Pegs
Reef - 24 Pegs
Oasis - 20 Pegs

Peg £7 - Payable on the day.
Pools £13
Winner take all £1

There will be a charity raffle - I'll get our business to put £50 in the pot of Bobco vouchers and I will personally double that, so its a £50 a £30 & £20 Bobco voucher for three lucky winners, no doubt Lakeview will donate some prizes from their tackle shop.

I have received the following very generous donations from MD'ers

£50 Donated by a well know MD'er that likes to fish at TBF.
5 Piece Luggage Set including holdall / Carry All & Ready Rod Bag donated by @Yosemite Sam
Carry All & landing net head donated by @warrington63
Gold,Silver & Bronze Medal donated by @ukzero1
12 months site subs kindly donated by @davej

Thank you very much gentleman you are all top class gents in my book.

Evening Tony - Alive and dangerously well thanks, hope you are too.

Had a visit from the inestimable @Dave Spence on Tuesday, when he very kindly dropped off some prizes for match participants and the raffle. To be fair I think it was a minor detour as he was actually heading for Ye Olde Pork Pie Shoppe to sample some real pork pie, before he is banished to the Emerald Isle where they don't have pork pie, poor chap.

I have been watching the match results and apart from Fishomania qualifier match, other matches seem to produce some good weights. I saw the venue Master @dirk has had some good results as have yourself I hear.

Had a day there myself, recently I'll do a write up tomorrow.

 

[kev coke]

Can you put me on the reserve list please mate

 

[Scribe]

@kev coke your on the list squire. I am going to post an update asking everyone to check the dates as I have had one angler drop out due to rescheduled club match.
