Pegging for the weekend.

Lots of thought has gone into this and the decision to keep the weekend on the main Loch was not taken lightly – All we want is the match to be fair for all and we feel this is the fairest way to peg the final. Happy to discuss before the event my phone is on pretty much all the time, what I will say is – it won’t be discussed at the draw or over the weekend with a view of influencing a change. Everyone is there to fish and catch what they can but we all feel giving odd anglers an advantage is unfair so please support and get involved we are all there to enjoy the event. We will save some money this way too that will go back into the pools just in context an extra £2 per peg 11 pegs over 2 days £44 – plus 22 £5 quad transport costs £110 so £154 saved which will go directly into paying an extra place. With ticket sales not what we required every penny counts toward the overall cost. We hope you can all see sense in the decision.

Fished on a rotation… fishing for 1-11 points with smaller cash sections.

Zone 1 – A Section – Shallows 2 pegs, Little Point 3 pegs, Big Point 3 pegs, Deeps 3 pegs  – 11 Point section
