Next year's Wingham Fish-In

[Rob Ward]

One other change I'm going to make next year is to have name tags. I know several of you forgot names - I know I did.

 

Ditto - apologies to anyone I called 'mate' or 'chief'.

I totally agree with Steves reasons for not allowing Pike fishing at Wingham.

 

Dont worry though Boozle Ive only got 8 Pike Teach Ins booked so far for this comming season so shouldnt be a problem putting one on for AN members.

 

On the tackle repair/making front I can gladly sort something for Wingham fish in next year.Also If enough of you are interested in a "Tackle Workshop" week end let me know and I will sort one for the comming months.

Wahey! I was reading this thread while the Lovely Kay was in the room, on asking me what i was reading and telling her all about it and what a nice place and w/e it is with friendly generous people, she said "that sounds nice you should go dear"

 

Well if you insist.

 

Though she has been asking about a new kitchen

Well thats perfect SH. She can fit the new kitchen whilst you're out the house at Wingham next year

Hi Steve, just wondering which weekend this is likely to be - 21st May is a Monday next year!?

It should be the 19th to the 21st May. I've changed my signature and the 1st post on this topic accordingly. Thanks Rob.

 

Funnilly enough we've just started the planning and our work parties begin Sunday week. I'm just writing a newsletter to syndicate members now.

 

I'll be posting a new thread shortly so that Forum members can book next year's holiday time well in advance.

I seem to remember that priority will be given to those who haven't fished at Wingham before - if you haven't, my advice is not to bother, it's completely overrated

 

It's 6 months away and I'm already getting goosebumps! If I get to fish again next year I hope it's tench weather rather than duck weather

Doh !!!!!

I'm in Cuba that weekend.

We won't be able to make Wingham next year - more to our sorrow. However, while looking for a photo of Steve Burke's auto clamped on his own property (I'm sure I took one or two), I did run across so others we took at his last annual AN-members-only event and thought I'd let any new folks get a slight taste of what Wingham is all about.

 

Some of us brought lots of gear

One angler's way of getting gear to swim

The way Steve provides for the rest of (unprepared) us

Getting comfortable for a long stay

 

 

While pike can't be targeted, some do mangage to get themselves caught

[Steve Burke]

You'll just have to cancel Cuba then, Tony!

 

For Tony and indeed everyone else, Wingham Fish-Ins are always likely to be the Sat/Sun/Mon before the end of May bank holiday. This means that they'll be anytime between the 16/17/18th and the 22/23/24th May.
