Online Auction in Aid of East Anglia Air Ambulance

The annual FM 24hr Charity Carp Match, combined with the James Farrow Memorial Trophy will once again be fished on Norfolk’s Snetterton Pits, courtesy of Fishery owners James and Karen Cooke. The event was last fished at Snetterton pits in 2004 and there were some great fish caught, including a carp just topping 30lb and a bream of 11lb 7oz.
