A very very busy day for most people and a venue I'm sure you all want to go to again. Bad luck to Simon on just missing out on a triple ton and also Tony W on just failing to make it a family one two.

Really enjoyed the day.
I thought fishing on the spit was a good idea, kept it nice and friendly as you could hear all the banter going on and could keep an eye on each other.
After Monks this was a good return to some big catches, well done to Watkins bros some serious up in the water fishing
Myself I got carried away on the paste,but really good day practising, but next year up in the water and some more nets!!!!! :tiphat

Cracking place, really enjoyed it. I do not think I heard a car all the time I was there. F1 fishing at its best.

Well done Simon and Tony, sorry to spoil the party.

Drop Monks and book Lake 6 or a different lake on Monks if you still want 2 matches there.

Gino - I thought you fished well on the day mate, just got the tactics wrong on the day. Don't beat yourself up.

Well done all, shame Keith spoilt the Watkins 1-2 would have been a first :fistycuffs Thoroughly enjoyable day catching on my favourite method although the first 45 mins on paste gave me a decent start. I must get a bit more organised on the keepnet front, one fish dropped back in cost me the triple.... :rage overall the venue is superb and the stamp of fish was definitely up from last year so will be even better next year!

Great days fishing but I made the mistake of going up top from the start took 45 mins to get my first fish but once up it was just a matter of feed or not but worked out well in the end well pleased with my day well done si and Keith. Defo for next year 😁
