Thats spot on. I fished club matches on our local canal in runcorn, and they were every weekend, with a midweek open. i fished every club match and started creaping up the page until i started framing, then i entered the 400 peg opens on the canal and the difference was unbelievable. Top anglers from all over the region showed up........... and i started beating them with my local knowledge............. but that was on my own stomping ground. It gave me the confidence that i was a good angler. i progressed to rivers and fished nationals, winning div 2 national section medals twice. but starting at clubs with a 10 pegger was the base for my knowledge.
I was quite happy fishing the local club matches around Oxford and then decided to have a go at qualifying for fish O in 98. Only went and won it on the canal at wolvercote !! Some geezer Called Steve ringer won the final!!!! My only claim to fame !!
I’d just go.. plonk gear down .. go for a cuppa and sarni in caffe .. come back forget I need another cuppa .. go back grab that.. come back match with brother and son in law would be 1 hour in then I’d start 🤣🤣🤣.. that’s why I pleasure fish but yes amazing video maybe I have my breakfast before I go ❤️❤️❤️❤️.. amazing video love it ..
Love the advice Andy- however im from Liverpool and i struggle to find a club that's near to me or even taking people on- i don't fancy the canal league - id love the commercial scene- but i basically have to fish opens against the big boys
Some great tips, I do love a match but forget that there are so many points to remember, pole pot for one 👍👍🙌🏼🙌🏼🎣🎣
Fished most of my life and always wanted to get into matches but don’t know why I haven’t, fear of the unknown? intimidated? Not sure. Series suggestion for filming, starting a campaign for a newbie, first match to first win, from the very beginning of sorting tackle in the shed to collecting first ever winnings covering every step of the way.
Just give it a go, and would be a great series - we've not got time to do it but would be interesting to watch :)
I was 14 on the Trent and misery canal in trentham stoke. I beat 23 older men with just four fish . On peg 1 never fished another since
Retired unbeaten Steve.
Hi Andy, New angler and learning so much from yourself and Jamie Hughes! Ive even managed to get the kids interested!I have a question. What is a Poppadom? 🙂
A crunchy Indian snack or a nick name for a skimmer/bream first used on Mortimer and Whitehouse: Gone Fishing 😂
Does everyone have 16m poles and seat boxes at every match, or do you get some people that turn up with a couple of rods/reels sitting on a camping chair?
Not so much on open matches, but most clubs you get a real mix. Some will even have different leagues within the club for newer and more experienced anglers. So if you can find a friendly local club then go for it and see how you get on. Can always upgrade kit as you get into it and to suit the venues you are fishing.
Fished first match on Combs resavoir in Derbyshire, pissing down freezing cold thought WTF am I doing.
Well said about the matches for those who have never fished them! Or turn up with a 28 year old atomic carp and wing your way through the matches 😂 oush, up the atomic boys! 😂
