I had a great day, thanks Steve, learnt loads, met a few new faces and had a nice couple of pints of Porter.
The weather was good for me, just unfortunate that the flooding had meant that water was flowing and dirty which stopped me from making my first Pike catch, but next time I will be better prepared.
I am sure I will visit there again in better flow conditions.
Thanks for a great day Steve, I had a superb time again....was great to have met a few new faces, CiderBob and Pikey Paul. Brilliant to have seen ****y making his way down to our end of the world.
Jeff,
Your talk of crispy duck made me hungry, so it was a chinese take away and guess what I had?!/forum/smilies/wink_smiley.gif
Another good fish-in, it's so nice to see oldface's again, Fishing Magic has lead me to meet some very nice people. Hope the duck was good Claudia /forum/smilies/smile_smiley.gif.
Shame some of the people who said that they would come didn't make it.
Shame on you if you put your name down for this fish-in and then didn't anwers email's.
Steve put a lot of time and effort into organizing this, but then again I suppose when your sat behind a pc it's easy to say " I'll come to this or that " and then not make it on the day.
I don't think that D.B will be organizing any more open fish-in's.
Thanks for organising a great day out. I shall certainly be returning to fish that venue again. A stunning place that just reeks of pike. Nice one matey /forum/smilies/big_smile_smiley.gif
As ever it was nice to meet up with FM friends again and meet some new faces.
If anyone has any photos of the day please email me them asap and I'll get going with the write-up.
