This year’s PAC Convention takes on an international flavour, with two of Europe’s top predator anglers joining a brace of British pikers on stage.
As well as the speakers you can browse all the latest tackle on the trade stands, pick up a bargain on the second hand-stalls, and catch up with old friends and new on what’s always an unmissable day out. So why not kick start your winter campaign with a trip to Piking 2008, which is being staged on Saturday, September 27 at the National Agricultural Showground, Stoneleigh Park, Coventry. PAC promotions manager Mike Kelly said: “We started planning this year’s convention almost straight away after Piking 2007, which was a record-breaking event for the club in more ways than one. “We knew it was going to be hard to beat it, so this year we’ve gone for a varied line-up of speakers who share one thing in common – they’re all extremely successful pike anglers you’ll rarely get the chance to see. “They all go about their fishing fish very differently, but one thing’s for sure – they’ll all knock you out with their talks and their catches.” Michel Huigevoort will be travelling from Holland to share the Dutch style of fishing rivers. He said: “I grew up close to the river Maas in the south of Holland. And after my very first pike the call of the river and the hunt for the biggest predator never went away. “Apart from pike fishing I like fishing for zander as well. Challenging the biggest bodies of water is what I like most, both in Holland and abroad.” PA H When you purchase through links on our site, we may earn an affiliate commission, which supports our community.
