The best canal team ever

#1

Unread post by bill yards »

Imagine the scenario; there is an international match on a narrow canal. The venue is your usual mix of canal fish plus of course big fish too. The match is in August with no bloodworm and joker allowed.
Going back in time as long as you need what would be your England team, that is five anglers and a manager.
The anglers/managers don't have to be alive.

The purpose of this is for interest and I am keen to hear all your views come whatever.

Give it a go Image

Mentioning Bill Yards and Young in the same thread would surely be an oxymoron anyway Image Image Image

At the end of the day this is all opinion and nowt else; interesting to hear you views though. Must admit I have a few reservations about the Rentmen selection!!!
Derek Young, - class act but we can only pick five.
I opted for Pete Hargreaves, Ok Derek Young may well have set three canal records but what didn't Pete Hargreaves win that he entered?
Keep 'em coming in, where's yours Chris V?

some very good Trentmen anglers and they would be difficult to beat...

Why would you include Jason Scrivener over the likes of Steve Wollard, Sam Perkins, Rob Perkins, lee Richmond..etc etc..

I've seen Jason fish a few times and without his record of drawing flyers he is one of the poorer Trentmen...i'd have Mad Dog Madeley in front of Jason.
