RIVER-MANIA ITS COMING

joffmiester · #1

All the venues for the first River Mania have now been submitted to Angling Trust for approval.
I'm hoping to be able to announce later this week that it will take place this year. Then it will be all systems go for ticket applications and competition promotion!
Thank you to everyone who got in touch with me to make this happen so far. We've definitely got the 20 qualifying matches we need now.
Hopefully, someone will be picking a cheque up for £10,000 on November 3rd!

ONE IS ON THE RIVER SOAR FOR SURE

Well done to all in getting this one going.

Hope you don't have to grow a beard to fish it

bill talking to dave over the weekend and it sounds as if he's thought it through and then approached the angling trust .a few weeks ago he asked about running one and i didn't see any reason why we couldn't us the river soar
its now up to the anglers to get behind this and show there support although the calender is full each season this needs to be one to mark
i'm not sure where this will leave team fishing though

as 20 matches being scheduled before november could this see the end of the winter league
