Wingham Fish-In Auction

[Anthony78]

Unfortunately I've only recently done a car boot and have cleared any unwanted fishing tackle/books prior to moving address so I'm afraid I won't have anything to contribute to the auction but as always I will be leaving a very generous contribution in the bailiff's box as I fully appreciate the hard work and effort these guys put into making sure the fish-in happens year in year out.

Will someone put a "reserve" on the various items ?

I'd suggest £25 reserve for the ABU CF reel?

[Vagabond]

I've added reserves to the two items I am offering

[Steve Burke]

Dave, what reserves would you like?

Firstly, I have a brand new Garbolino 3 piece telescopic landing net pole (estimate £8 to £12)

 

 

I'm also going to put 6 lots of books into the auction.

 

1) A first edition of Quest for Barbel by Tony Miles and Trefor West (estimate £15 to £25)

 

2) 2 pike fishing books (estimate £4 to £6)

 

How to Catch Bigger Pike from Rivers, Lochs and Lakes by Paul Gustafson. 1st edition.

Spinning and Plug Fishing by Barrie Rickards and Ken Whitehead.

 

3) A selection of 5 coarse and match fishing books (estimate £4 to £6)

 

John Wilson's 1001 Top Angling Tips (a wealth of ideas!)

Freshwater Fish and How to Catch Them by Billy Lane and Colin Graham

Match fishing to Win by Billy Lane and Colin Graham

Match Fishing with the Experts by John Carding

Match Angling edited by John Carding

 

4) Grayling, the Fourth Game Fish by Ronald Broughton (estimate £8 to £12)

 

5) A selection of 8 fly-tying books (estimate £20 to £30)

6) The Best of Chevin edited by Bruce Vaughan and myself that I'll be pleased to sign.

 

This is a selection of the best articles over the years from Chevin, the magazine of the Chub Study Group. With top chub anglers contributing you can't fail to learn from it. This is very rare as we didn't have the money to publish many copies (I paid for it myself!) I think in the end there were only 100. (estimate £20 to £30).

[Steve Burke]

I'll sort that out a full list this evening, Rich, when I'm back home.
