I thought I would post this in here as some people never make it out of the Shore Fishing area.
On the 21st of February is our annual north versus south competition. This is the fourth year it has been run since TC first thought of it and it is a very popular comp. There are no big prizes, it is for the bragging rights for 2009 to give the losing team some good hearted banter. The Trophy is currently held by the captain of the north Team, Stores. They took the trophy last year from the south team, who had held the trophy for the first two years and is captained by Sless. No doubt David will be getting some elbow grease to work and polishing the trophy up ready to present it to Graham (sless) after the comp
It is always a good night and the chance to make new friends and also learn to fish a new mark. Get your names down and help your team whichever it is to win. We have had a lot of new members recently and quite a few just returning to fishing after a long lay off. A perfect chance to learn new techniques, find out about different rigs and even perhaps catch a fish to help your team win. I post something like this at almost every comp and we always get a few new people along and always get reports of how much they enjoyed it.
If you are new to fishing and a bit shy, don't worry about it. Turn up, let your captain know you don't know the area and someone will look after you for the night and point you in the right direction. If you are from north of the Tyne see David and if you are from south of the Tyne see Graham. It should be (as always) a very good night and best of luck to both teams.
