bullmastiff 610 Posted June 15, 2015 Report Share Posted June 15, 2015 Maybe a silly question but is anyone bringing their missus with them? Only reason I ask is its my wedding anniversary on the 16th so if I head up for this I'd best bring the better half along too! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

bullmastiff 610 Posted June 15, 2015 Report Share Posted June 15, 2015 Such romantics eh! I that case I'll be coming! Probably stay in a b&b Friday night and treat her to a night out in glorious Leicester! Then hold over on the Saturday. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
bullmastiff 610 Posted June 15, 2015 Report Share Posted June 15, 2015 Pillow talk might be " did you riddle my maggots and boil my hemp?" Who will you be sharing a tent with?? It's not one of 'those' camping sites is it! 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Tozer 385 Posted June 15, 2015 Report Share Posted June 15, 2015 I'm coming, this is only 20 minutes from my door, is anyone needs a lift within sensible distances of Lutterworth let me know. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Yes will be going rude not to.its affordable and great fun. Just got to try and get both my minnows into the keepnet and witness the auction I'll be happy Quote Link to post Share on other sites
walshie 2,804 Posted June 16, 2015 Report Share Posted June 16, 2015 Yes, there's a field and camping, but Arch isn't booking that side of it. Posted by Ossie n Arch on 14 June 2015 - 12:55 PM in Fresh & Salt Water Fishing No, if you're going to be camping you need to ring up the site and book in yourself. Ask for Rita and explain you're fishing the CHARITY match on the 16th August. She'll book you in. We are camping down near the lake we are fishing (Gils) It's all in my OP in the Charity fishing comp Thread in the General section. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
walshie 2,804 Posted June 16, 2015 Report Share Posted June 16, 2015 Looks a nice spot , good enough for Bob nudd good enough for me. Might get myself a whip and have some simple fun fishing. Never heard the 'buy our pellets only' thing before though. Will a whip handle an 8lber though? Well speaking in my capacity as last year's runner up (but I don't like to mention it) you won't have to worry as you won't hook anything over 2oz like last year. And whips and poles are for fannies.

bullmastiff 610 Posted June 16, 2015 Report Share Posted June 16, 2015 Emily uses a whip to fish with as a rod/reel were a bit hard for her to learn on. She hooked and landed a 7lb mirror with it. So a competent fisherman should do just fine! Just watch out for weed/lillies. You can't give them as much stick as a rod! I guess it's one rod in the water at a time? 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
bullmastiff 610 Posted June 16, 2015 Report Share Posted June 16, 2015 Ems caught this one on the whip. Think emily will be coming with us too but she won't be fishing. Her and Lisa are heading off into leicester whilst I desperately try to catch my first fish! If I haven't hooked myself in the first hour and still got some tackle left then I'm doing well! 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
