Fish-Ins

[Andrew Burgess]

I believe Budgie's offering to take us all to Spain, everyone

 

 

I wouldn't mind that at all. Hey Bruv when the dates!

 

Anyone fancy Shatterford Lakes? It got cats and carp!

Jimmys is a day ticket lake in South Essex, near Corringham (M25/A13 would be the way most of you would reach it.)

 

It holds both large carp and cats, and has featured on Go fishing at least once, however I've never fished it, and have no idea if the owner would agree to a weekend block booking or not!

Makes a change, that's near me ! If you get it off the ground I'll definitely go

If we could get a block booking I would be up for doing it.Could bring some slides and vidio etc. I dont know the water (know of it) so if any one does fish there they might be able to send me contact details of the owners?

Budgie, I have just found the contact no for jimmys and spoke to a lovely lady "Jackie" and I have explained our predicament and she is more than willing to allow us to have a block booking but there would be a maximum of 20 anglers @ £10.00 per swim and £10.00 per additional rod. It is about 10 miles from the Dartford crossing and has some basic amenities with 2 pubs close by. Her son was out this week and had 16 cats in four hours!!. You can book any day from 7am until 7pm and unfortunately they do not allow under 16 years to fish I will pm you the contact details ( forgot to write the number down )

Sounds cool

 

When you say 'additional' rod, how many does the tenner cover, one or two?

[Anderoo]

Is it too late to put my name down? I've been after a cat for a couple of seasons now and failed miserably (apart from a tiddler). Would be good to meet some of you.

[Tony U]

I would be down for some of that.

Looks like there'll be two fish-ins at this rate. I'm up for both

'2 pubs close by'

 

 

The magic words. Count me in too.

Only 30 Minutes from the Kent base for me.
