Three tips really-

 

Choose a water that has regular open matchs on it.

 

Go and watch as many matches on it as you can.

 

Practice and perfect what you have seen.

Top tips from Budgie, only one from me. establish the target fish and probable weight needed to win the match and fish for them, don`t get tempted to start scratching for bites if you struggle for the start of the match and dont be dissalusioned when you get your a**e whupped from each side of you good luck and have FUN.

Be prepared to donate to the more experienced anglers Christmas/holiday/new pole fund for a while.
