"HOW ABOUT JUNE 16th?"

Suits me down to the ground Mr. Woodhouse.

As usual, with my job any date will do and I can either make it there or not depending on the Project.

As long as we know well enough in advance then it does make it easier for me at least.

I thought that, "Any Bream Will Do" was the title of a song.


It's easy Neil. Chuck out a bagging waggler with a mini-boily underneath or a method feeder with a piece of corn or a mini-boily on it, but the inmportant thing is prayer. Take a mat along, an unhooking mat will do, and long before you cast you must spend 30 minutes at least on your hands and knees, prostrate yourself if you can find the room, and just pray, pray, pray. Repaeat this for ten minutes every hour.

12th or 19th May would be best for me, but could probably make 16th June at a push.

2nd and 9th of June is out.

Make sure Dexter is there, if you want to win you have to beat the best....

Far more fun to nobble him. Mind you, if you pushed him in he'd probably clamber out with a fish in each pocket.

Put me down, no date I can't do presently I don't think.

Peeps, this may seem nit picking, but I think its important.

For those who were around in the early stages of Grahams fishing "web" line, which started off as an hotmail based email forum and we then all migrated over to FM when Graham moved, I remember Keith Culley with a great deal of affection.

He was known as "The Pole", and he stood his corner against a plethora of specialists and carpers with great humoured banter. He was really funny at times and we were all very sad to hear of his early death.

It was why the Keith Culley Memorial Trophy was started, to remember him and recognise his great contributions.

Its not the "Clattercote 2007", it just happens to be held there.......

....unless of course I have missed something last year?

With all due respects to all involved



If its not the "Clattercote 2007" but the Keith Culley Trophy then I say we shift it over to Drayton/Daventry as it is lot easier to get to via the M1

With respect, I, along with several others, have only just mastered how to blank at Clattercote. To suggest we have to move to a new venue at this stage is going to leave at us at a distinct disadvantage.....

Bully is right, the event is the Keith Culley Memorial Match. It's held at Clattercote because it's less of an out and out commercial than the other nearby lakes and therefore gives everybody a chance regardless of their match fishing experience. Also, most have enjoyed it there.

However, if the majority want a change then post your views here. But remember, I'm making a booking tomorrow as I can't afford to wait any longer or we may not get the 40 pegs we want.

I'm booking the 19th May.

I am fine with Clattercote....I think the place is lovely.

My only point was Drayton is easier to get to and in all probability will throw up less blanks.

But I am looking forward to the match whatever the venue.
