Friday evening (15th August 2025)-Meet-up 17:00pm (sharp) in the "The Moorings At Myton" Road Public House canal-side carpark CV31 3NY (Please park at the furthest end the carpark from the pub, next to Myton Road as before, to save closer spaces for pub patrons)
-After a short briefing in the carpark, we fish from the moment we get on the canal until -20:00pm.
If you are going to be late, ping me or the LACC a message and let me know. That way, I can either leave a score sheet on my car windscreen for you. (I WILL need to know if you are entering the prize-pot before-hand though for obvious reasons)
£5 entry per person payable in cash on the day and “winner takes all” (unless there are more that 10 anglers, allowing me to pay more places) Equally, if you would just like to take part and experience the competitive element of lure fishing without paying the competition entry fee that is fine (obviously you would not be eligible for a cash prize though, should you win, just the glory and bragging rights :-))
As many people favour of a scorecard rather than everything counts, I will again keep the comps simple - This one will be the longest combined length of Pike, Perch, Zander, Chub and Ruffe to count. No minimum size limit.
I'm not going to put any fishing boundary-limits on these comps, so you are free to roam! Just keep to the LACC-owned grand union canal. Please be back at the carpark by 21:30pm latest so that we can do the results.
-All on foot (no cars/bikes to be used)
-Fish mats and official measures with an up-turned, rigid end only please (the measure printed on your fish mat is not accurate enough so cannot be accepted)
-Fish must be measured and photographed with the nose of the fish to the left hand side of the measure and touching the stop/up-turned end. Tails can be pinched to get the most from your catch and we are rounding up to the nearest cm (i.e. 23.5cm is rounded up to 24cm) Please make sure one complete side of the measure is visible in the photo (i.e the fish doesn't block it out and we see a continuous measurement)
-You will be issued with a coloured sticker for that evenings event which must be placed on the top left corner of your official measure and visible in the submission photos.
-No fishing in the rise/fall boat/lock chambers
-No casting into the swims of others
In the event of a tie on points, the result will be decided on the tied - anglers longest fish to win. If there is still a tie, it will go to the angler with the second longest fish and so on until a winner emerges.
Winners photos will always be verified before any monies are paid.
My aim is for these to be super-friendly meetups of a bunch of like-minded anglers and maybe a pint afterwards to discuss all the monster Zander we lost! 😃
-These comps are for LACC membership holders or those who purchase a valid LACC day-ticket for that day's fishing.
No need to officially book in or pre-pay (as I know plans can often change) just mark as "Attending" on this event so I have an idea of numbers or ping me a private message.
If you have any questions, drop a comment on this post or ping me a message.
