Centerpins fish in where when??

[Alan Roe]

There appears to be some of us who thinnk that it might be a good idea for a bit of a get together and fish in somewhere at some point in the near(ish) future so that we can share ideas and learn from each other.
I would like to know how many are interested and to thrash out a venue that is roughly central to us all.
If you are interested in this idea please let me know via this thread.

 

[Andrew Miller]

Count me in. I am a self taught angler and badly needs someone to irons out all my mistakes! I live in Leicestershire.

 

[Carp Angler]

same as Andrew, except for the bit about Leicestershire.

 

[Dan Wellington]

I,d certainly consider it as it sounds a great idea, depends where/when (Beds)

 

[paul williams]

How about a winter grayling session on a midland venue??

 

[Alan Cooper]

Count me in as always interested. Very over-worked at present, but I'd like to be in there. East London.

 

[Alan Roe]

If its all right with everyone plan to leave this thread open untill next Monday to give everyone a chance to see it and respond too it then I will attempt to sort out an appropriate venue and date I welcomw any suggestions on this!!!

 

[sean archer]

i am always looking to improve my fishing skills, so you can count me in.
i live in hereford

 

[Goose Ganderton]

Im up for it Alan Im in need of a good teacher to help me master the "Pin" Im down in Whitstable Kent.

 

[Neal Cooper]

Count me in...I'm new to the coarse fishing game, but am an experienced South African rock and surf sea angler in need of a fresh water teacher. I'm in Surrey

 

[michael jepson]

I'm more than intrested.Mike- Tameside.

 

[Alan Roe]

I feel that in order to give everyone best chance of attending we should aim for somewhere in the midlands.
I suggest the Severn around Bewdley/Bridgenorth with a possible date around the mid /end November.
Has anyone any other suggestions/ comments.
Cheers
Alan

[Phil Jones]

Alan, just got back into the course fishing after a two year break and an attempt at fly fishing, would most definately be interested. Am from Barnstaple in North Devon.

 

[Carp Angler]

Are we going to firm up a date and venue for this???????????

 

[Alan Roe]

Yes I am in the process of asking everyone where they would like to go thats roughly central to us all see my post above I was thinking of a date mid/end November.
I am hoping that others might add their suggestions soon then we can crack on
Cheers Alan

 

[Goose Ganderton]

Alan any time during November is good for me as im self employed I am not worried about what day/s it is and a midlands location would be fair to neveryone. As I have not fished in this area befor I will leave this up to those with a greater knowledge of the venues.

 

[sean archer]

just a thought or two
a, who will be teacher, perhaps someone knows an expert
b, an top notch water where we can all catch double figure barbel and 6lb + chub
c, b+b for the long distance travellers
d, perhaps getting say j w young and co, etc involved (good publicity)
i for one would be prepared to pay a fee to any chosen charity for what i feel will be a fun and educational day

[paul williams]

Sean, wot about a 3lb roach each to!!or do you think i'm expecting too much? come on mate, a water you describe i know not!!!!

 

[sean archer]

well i must admit the river wye is a good choice, but i am biased as i live in hereford. joking aside the red lion stretch of water produced barbel to 14 lb and chub to 5.5 lb last weekend. 2 weeks ago belmont golf course stretch produced for one lucky person barbel to 12.5 lb and a venue record chub of 7 lb 2 oz. both these waters are day ticket and belmont even has a small hotel.
and before you ask i'm not getting a back hander

Sean! i knew Two Seans from the big H, one was mad and wore a funny jacket and the other wore a beige beret, come to think of it they were both mad! are you one of them!or are you John Bailey trying to sell the Red Lion?
