Simple if I take the crumpets again this year are you going to tear yourself away from Gem for long enough to eat some this time?
Of course mate
We'll see ;)
It really is a fab weekend, if you dont know anybody when you go- you sure will by the end of the weekend!
I dont know anybody else that kindly brings me a pack of choccy bikkies whilst fishing- thanks DaveC
and also offers crumpets and tea for brekky Its not just any fishing weekend, next to no money is involved its all paid out to give everyone a chance, its all for the banter and meeting new and old friends
Ive had a few of my PBs from Rolfs, mainly on the last weekender there... 2nd in match with 98lb and 2 chub (5lb and 5lb 8oz). Great buzz!
Its certainly not easy to catch 100lb+, you gotta work at it and it can be very frustrating. I promise you if you go there once you will want to go again!
Very pretty place to fish, excellent and approchable owner/helpers, beautiful fish in top condition. My only downside.... no food is sold onsite! And theres no loo! (but thanks to MDs weekenders one is hired and everyone pays towards the fee)
