@Whisker any kit u feel u need let me know, I have a spare un-hooking mat and think landing net that's 32 or 34 inch.

 

[Whisker]

Thanks Kev, great gesture. Net might come in handy, thank you kindly . All my gear is match gear, I have a mat and larger spoon type net for munters, but think I’ll have a longer Christmas list this year than I had last year…

If the Barbel show and you want to step things up a bit you're welcom to borrow one of my Barbel rods, reels, feeders, hooklengths, pellets, boilies etc @Whisker

That's good of you mate - You do know it's a match don't you ?

Best use What3Words they have mapped the globe down to 3 Metre squares can't fail with that. For anyone who is unsure about directions / the entrance for Sheldons is here ------What3Words ///twig.hologram.stumble copy & paste that into your browswer and it will show the entrance exactly.

Thanks RD, that’s a very nice gesture, top man

I’ve just bought the Korum 12’ quiver with 4oz and 6oz tips, and the Korum 12’ 2lb. Also bought a Shimano 6000 reel and a few (literally) bits for the day. At some point next Saturday, I’ll be having a look at some of the more experienced guys’ set ups and writing a list for Santa…

Just to let people know who haven't seen the Sheldons stretch, you may want to get in the water, so worth taking Wellys or Waders. I am used to being in the water anyway according to some on here, I should just need my usual trunks.

Any plans to meet for Breakfast before this one? @ravey likes a good fry up and needs fattening up?

I would be up for that. I did look at Hardy's Farm Shop in Farndon, but I don't think it opens till 9 AM.
