Simple Match Fishing Forum

Nice one joff thought you'd know bit about it I know last year tickets weren't sent till wk before the match
So which is Quorn waters and which is Loughborough waters
Cheers preecy

scrapyard to the Albion is Quorn to be fair pilling to the scrapyard which is out in the country this part we don't use very often in the winter but in the summer its full of fish as it flows sometimes more than the river . April might be too early for it though
loughboroughs water is Swing-bridge down to bishops meadow locks above and below

That'll be me on the hire centre as usual then joff

spoke to sandra in the week and she had a couple of things to sort out but she is hoping to start getting the tickets out today

Little bit of confusion with some anglers that want to take part !
You don't need to be a member of the Angling Trust to enter this competition . This might be holding anglers back there are plenty of spaces remaining so please don't hesitate to enter . The first round is 12 th April on the Loughborough canal this should be really good as we held the semi final of the winter league around this time of year

For the first date 12th of April if you want to book on as a pair and pay on the day 
please contact Brian Hull or myself or leave a  message on here . we would like to see another 10 pairs at least if possible please spread the word
this is a great competition but it needs your support 

1 Martin Alman  = John Baker
2 Brent Wilkes  = Sam Barker
3 Ben Garbett = Ian Hingley
4 Sam Merry  = Rob Wootton
5 Ian Barker = Colin Barker

BOOK ON AND PAY ON THE DAY 

so how are they doing the points , a section 1-50 or just 1 to 10 in a section and when it tied on weight or section wins ,

not sure how the points will be done kiddo just need to get numbers up at the minute

Relative answers to results queries

Rule 9. There will be one member of each Pair in each Section.
Rule 11. No competitor will change his/her Section. Any angler who commences fishing at the wrong peg will be disqualified.
Rule 42. The top five from each qualifier will be invited to the final. The result of the Pairs Championship shall be determined on a points system. If a pair cannot attend the final they must provide adequate time to notify the Angling Trust.

Entries should all receive a full copy of the Rules if you have entered through Angling Trust.

Tickets for all still available......

yes book on and pay on the day

Also i have a few esquires about how much the Angling Trust are taking out .It seams a few rumors of £5 a peg this is simply not true it's £2 which is about right

2 qwid don't seem to bad , think we've got to look to the future of big matches on natural waters , if we support it now then hopefully it can get bigger and bigger just like riverfest did and thats now a sellout. Without people like Joff who is keen to get these matches up and running wel all be sat round puddles paying anything up to £10 peg fees all year round coz theres nowt else being run if were not careful

bill , that does not answer the question , are the points 1 for a win down to 50 last in section or are they spilt into 10 peg mini section then 1 to 10 . and joff i think all the £40 is spilt between club that runs the match and the angling trust with the rest going to the final . so none of the money paid out on the day with a optional £10 per angler on day .

Could you book me Ben Garbett and Ian Hingley down please could do with some info as well cus we aint ever been thank you.

Match split into to sections a&b with 50 in each section 50points for section win down to 1 point for last
Add your to scores together an highest scoring pair wins if a tie then goes on weight (well was last year would av thought be same format this year )
Come on joffy what's the pegging likely to be

Hi Preecy your correct
The Canal will be paper pegged in two sections A and B ive spoke to Brian and we have agreed that one section will be on Loughboroughs waters and one section on Quorns water with plenty of room
just hope we get a few more or it might not be 5 to qualify

thanks Ben

Rule 9. There will be one member of each Pair in each Section.

Would have thought this was pretty clear; a pair is two anglers with one angler in each section which equals two sections. There is no mention of mini sections in the rules

These rumours of £x amount of money going to Angling Trust are simply untrue. As far as I know £2 per angler goes to the Angling Trust towards administration. The value of your package, eg rules copy, peg card tickets and letter headed full information would cost that much to produce.

Any info on the venue would be helpful only thing i have found out yet is that massey draws on a bridge hole every match and empties it.
