We have space in the Competition for 4 more heats if anybody wishes to run one in an area not covered above. PM me if you want to run one.

Finals are at Elinor over the weekend of 10/11 October.

Entry forms will be on the CEFF website in a few days.

Top English qualifiers will form an England International Bank squad in 2010 if we can arrange a suitable International. The chances are high.

Egnot.

Note this everyone: though an open competition, the eligible English competitors will have the chance of achieving three lions caps, i.e. you could qualify to represent England. For the first time we are driving towards official recognition at national team level in this formerly under-rated bank fishing discipline - which has always featured in FIPS-Mouche World and European Championships.

There were rumors last year of some heats being held in Scotland. Does anyone think this is likely to happen?

Which of these venues is closest to Surrey/Hampshire?

and would it be recommended for a competition novice to enter?

Thanks,
Craig

Craig, Hi.

Probably the Haywards Farm Heat on 7th June. Its at the Sportfish place at theale. It will be a friendly day and there will be CEFF people around who will help you get started, It is probablay the bestheat to start Competition fishing as we run it to a 4 fish limit with a very limmited time bonus, (1lb per full hour) so you can take your time fishing rather than having to panic.

Walthamstow may be an option, that was a very succesful heat last year.

PM me and I will give you details of the Southern Fedeation who run Competitions and National qualification heats and we run a social competetion at Haywards on Sunday March 29th. Membership fees are onl £6.

Alan
