Just thought I would add my 2 penny's worth here,

this is a good weekends fishing and not just because of the prizes etc.

There is also lots for the family to do in the local area while the hunter gatherer is out for the day.

 

Malc, welcome to AN, will you let us know how the weekend went, weather, numbers of boats, fish caught etc etc? It could give a bit of a boost for next years comp.

 

Good luck

Do you need to fish both days to take part?

[SandTiger]

Can't see why not. Fish one day and drink the next

 

See http://www.daba.eclipse.co.uk/open_comp_dates.htm

You can fish either one of the days, it is not a requirement to fish both. I believe there are day prizes for both days. In addition the event is for shore and boat, including a junior section.

Typically I've got a trip with Steve Parker on Two Rivers the following weekend. Did try and bring it forward a week but guees what? he is booked up, and with loads of non locals :mad:

He said himself if it was known earlier he would have saved the dates for local anglers who would probably have entered. From his conversation the other charter boats are the same, so its probably down to private boat entries only

Who do we contact for more info about the weekend?

 

Either post or email me if anyone can help

Wouldn`t you know it!! I`ll be at Dartmouth for a week 14 days later with Colin Penny on Flamer out of Weymouth for my Spring Jaunt. Last May we managed the odd 40 plaice a day between 8 of us. Even though a few rods didn`t exactly pull their weight? ( Blanks, that is).

Any of you that take part in this event. Please give Sue in the `7 stars` my love? And go to `Kendricks` for a meal. Their chocolate puddings are truly luscious!!!!
