Simple Match Fishing Forum

Steve and All.

Will check regards Middy Stupid Stick tomorrow morning.

Think you may be right though as when Geoff was baliffe i know it got banned then as well as landing net handles with lacky, but will check with the new guy.

When i spoke to him last week he was saying that this year MIGHT be the last year of matches as we know them there as they may stop the use of keepnets as THEY think 20lbers are classed as Specimens and not suited to matches......



Mike

Drayton was your choice as you fish it and there for will know what the fish are like in there.

You can get away with a 22 lacky on the Dam as you have the open water for them to go to but it'll be one hell of a fun day if you fish a 22 on the boards.

I'll make sure i've got the camera set up on a tripod to picture your fun.

As for the difference between "a shock stick and a yank and bank with a 22 laccie and 10 main line size 14 hook" hell of a lot as to my mind the stupid stick is a 3lb test carp rod with elastic where as the wanknbank is a take apart (easily smashed at Drayton) margin pole. ::)

As for a 14 hook a did not even know they made them that SMALL

Definate Canal tactics if it's 10lb line.

Al,

Marked you as Confirmed.

[center]RULES UPDATE[/center]

Just spoke to the Baliffe and the Shock Stick IS BANNED i'll update the first page accordingly.

malc i will never forget that bloke who was fishing a match on the boards (when we had the last jinx match at drayton) using a floating pole

It takes all sorts.

i loved the floating pole but like the shock stikk lots of places band the pole
just because of its lenth had some big carp on
it but it was a cow to try and break down when you have doubles on the end i was i still had my floater or could find one to buy

i loved the floating pole

I cant beleive i just read the above somebody actually admitting they LOVE the Floating Pole.....


It's bad enough that anyone admitts to actually doing it.


Hope you DONT teach that style.

one of the best pieces of equipment i have ever brought
mind you i did get some funny looks when i put a 60+ m of carbon
out tight to a island then just wait for the pole to slide side ways or straight down depending on what baits. biggest fish i have ever caught on the method was 17.5lb common never ever seen a lake stop fishing like it did when i caught her because people had never seen the floating pole they just stop to see if i was going to land the fish did over 60lb in four fish that day i was do in then
no malc i don't teach that method just standard pole, feeder,and waggler

Here's a top secret photo of Malc, it will give you a clue of what his tactics are for Drayton......

What Photo

no wading in at drayton got to stop on boards

What Photo

they blocked hotlinking.. its attached now  

I'll have you know i resemble that PERFECTLY.

That looks enough like Malc to be downright crappity smacking scary.

Tell me he ain't got a twin.

Can't be related Peter
he has a watch on his wrist

yes but nothing says the watch works Clive. I got told malc had an alarm clock, but that never ment he got up on time or got any were on time

Told you all before i run on MALCY time..

Bloody hell Malc your a movie star you look like that runner outa Forest Gump run Malc run Malc

Been called INFAMOUS many times but not often FAMOUS.

Where's the oars for the raft. Bait boats gone mad.

are bait boats banned during the match because if not i'm using my brothers mates bait boat not lol had a go on one and never seen a boat do doughnuts on water before if seen should be shoot out of the water worse than the silly stick or floating pole which i both love
