Wingham Fish-In Sat 18th to Mon 20th May 2013

[RUDD]

You're welcome to come as I've got spaces. Just let me know asap.

 

Only just logged back on, up to my eyeballs last few days.

I have no transport at present as car in for MOT / service, trying to get a tyre size they dont hold in stock!

[Leon Roskilly]

Perhaps it's only fair to warn folks that I will be wandering about Wingham on Sunday.

 

Wingham fish-in veterans will know that probably means rain (I've been busy proofing my fishing jacket!)

Moved from wrong topic.

 

The Main Lake may be waking up just in time for the Fish-In!

 

Mark Cunnington has had 2 more tench this afternoon, a 6-04 and a clonker of 9-08. The latter was 23 1/2ins long and, although it ran out of girth near the tail (indicating a young fish), was very heavily-built. In other words a likely 11lber in July.

 

Also this afternoon Paul Westcott (Tincatinca) had a male of just under 7lbs.

 

It's looking a lot more promising than a few days ago!

[Errrm]

Mostly packed now and ready for a 4am start. Hoping to get there for 7am :-). See you all tomorrow.

[Mat Hillman]

2am, just got home from work, going to grab a couple of hours sleep and then get going! Aiming to arrive at 7am!

Good luck everyone...Wingham's a magical place and I only regret that I won't be there because I can't get a weekend off (including holdays!) between now and next March.... queue a job search!)

[Tony U]

Good luck to you all, I look forward to reading the reports.

Well I don't like to tempt fate, but there's now no rain forecast til Monday, and it's bordering on warm...!

 

I'm sitting watchibg the lake and listening to the birdsong and enjoying a well earned coffee. There's a cetti warbler somewhere close, it's deafening

I hope it stays like that for you all Andrew. It's been raining up here for the last 16 hours.

 

Keep us up to date with all the action.

Sounds good, I spent more time watching/photographing birds when I was there than I did fishing. Just wish my car hadn't chosen to pack in couple of weeks sine or I would have been there.

 

Have a good one!
