Barton Court Fish-in 13th March

[Elton]

i can't remember if i got my name on the reserve list or not ,and if so ,i was going to enquire if everyone was feeling well or not ,nothing serious just the odd bout of flu ,measles or general pox and have to drop out !

 

Or cut brake line, accidentally fell under a bus...that sort of thing?

[Leon Roskilly]

I was pretty crook over Xmas, but survived, and reckon I'll be right for Barton Court.

 

I hope so because I'm really, really looking forward to it

[Chris Plumb]

Still happening! All monies have been receieved! Chavender - I replied to you on 5/11/08 saying you were on the reserve list....

Right then, I've finally thawed out and woken up enough from the Predator Fish-In to start planning for (read: worrying about!) this, so a few questions for those in the know.

 

In the event that I decide to take more than one outfit (e.g. trotting rod/reel, and pike rod/reel), is it safe to leave one lot in the vehicle whilst fishing with the other? Do we even get a chance to return to the vehicles without spoiling the fishing? Is it just better to drag everything round with oneself all day?

 

Kick off time? And when can we fish to?

 

I'm sure plenty more questions will enter my head in the next week or so, but that's a start!

I left my Pike gear in the car no probs last time i went but can be a bit of a walk back to it depending on where abouts on the fishery you are,Not sure about start times as you normally stick your money in a envolope and post it through Bobs letterbox but sure Chris will let us know what the deal is before the day,Getting excited now cant wait steve.

Right then - my mate Paul can no longer get the day off so his place has gone to Tiddler Tamer. Everyone has already paid me (except for TT - and his cheque is in the post) so I will be the only one putting monies through the letter box.

 

Fishing is from Dawn to Dusk - and I will be fishing both - though will probably hang around fishing near the hut for the first few hours playing the genial host and greeting you all as you arrive. (Nothing to do with the fact that some nice dace have been coming out from that bit you understand!)

 

I shall be wandering around with just a rod and net - and leaving the rest of my tackle in the car - never had any problems with that in the past.....

 

Any more questions just ask....

So can we turn up early and just start fishing then Chris? No need to sign in as such?,Presume everyone is to park down by the fishing hut Steve.

[Angly]

Thank you both for the quick reply, might even take a light quivertip rod too then.

 

Dawn start eh? Let me see, 1hr 40 drive time (ish...Multimap), so presuming sunrise of 6:15 and first light/dawn twilight of 5:45, then 3:30 wake-up call should do the trick.

 

Thought of another Q: do they supply a printed map, or should I print out the one on their website?

The only maps I've seen are those which folk have printed from the website, it's not great but good enough to get you around. They'll be plenty of people there to point you in the right direction. The fishery limits are obvious so don't worry too much about straying into forbidden territory.

Yes to all those - though I still aim to get there first!!!
