Wingham Fish-In

[gozzer]

I'm imagining us all in the bunker (clubhouse) smartly dressed in military uniform (Budgie should be able to help us out there) with neatly trimmed taches and eyes narrow with determination, standing over a big table with a map of the lake on it, moving little model bream about with long sticks, out of our minds on muddy coffee and bully beef pot noodles, while an army radio crackles in the background, bringing in results from the field and orders from Field Marshall Burke, safely tucked away in his bream-shelter

 

I'll cry when I'm done catchin'.

 

More like Dad's Army.

 

Steve Mannering in charge, Budgie Wilson the sarge', Rich Jones the corp', you could play Pike (more chance of catching one ), and if you get Andy to come down, he could sit in the corner saying, "Yer aaall doooomed".

 

John.

 

PS. On second thoughts it would have to be Budgie Mannering, then he could say the immortal line,

 

"Don't tell him ESOX".

Assuming I'm oversubscribed again this year I'll be letting some lucky Coarse Lake/Forum members loose on the Carp Lake to join Elton and Si. They get an automatic place for hosting and running the Wingham web site. We've been very unlucky on the Carp Lake on Fish-Ins as 3 out of every 8 carp that came out last year were 30lbs+.

 

The only worry I've got is what on earth that Capper bloke will pull out of the Carp Lake?

 

Anyone care to run a book?

Well, I happen to know that he now has rods able to handle anything that swims, so there's no way I'd bet against him!

 

I'll make sure my camera batteries are fully charged He's not a bad angler is Dr Capper!

[Si...]

Its about time I had a 30+ lber from the carp lake, would be nice to have one of the 40's though

Steve - I know what I said earlier as I give up my place but if there only a slight chance of a place going if it not over subscribe - then I wouldn't mind having a fair crack of the carp lake!

3 night syndicate members wiil probably get the chance to fish the Carp Lake. Priority will go to those who didn't fish it last year, so you've got a good chance of getting on the Carp Lake.

I had a crack last year so if I can't fish I'll come along anyway to help out and enjoy the social side (beer and burgers!). And spend another 3 days photographing fish for Richard again
