“I think thats why SA dumped tourno casting - as it's boring, and doesn't create interest amongst sea anglers who like to see fish being caught and not a lead continuosly being chucked over a field of grass over and over again.”

How can you say tournament casting is boring when you have never been to a competition?

“John, I wanted to come to a casting comp as I have never been to one”

”Tourno casters, when they fish, always seem to blast (imo) - do you not feel this is just bravado - to show anglers around them... “look at me and how far I can cast?" - I know of one particular person who does this ALWAYS at a well known promenade - and his fishing/catch rate is very poor indeed!
Paul”

Bit of a sweeping generalization there Paul, I cast to where the fish are. 2yds or 200yds makes no difference to me or many other people who choose to cast in competition. I know of people who regularly fish opens and catch little or nothing, they also struggle to cast more than 50yds but I wouldn’t use this as an example and state match men can’t cast!
 
seems like a bit of a contradiction your post at no 40 re tournament casting then your last couple of replies penn 525.the casters are still anglers as well leave each to their own and everyone will then get on
 
i think you have to go on, now you have started you may as well finish
 
i,m guilty, i,m no longer an angler,but i still feel passionate about angling ,i do pop down the beach when i can .
 
Who's your top five anglers then?

I'll kick it off -

Jesus - loaves and fishes business

Exxon Valdise (?) - killed a shed load

Peter Benchley and Zanuck & Brown (?) - JAWS = Loadsa dead sharks

My Mate Geordie (probably the best sea angler in Barmston)

That Lass Pauline who wins all the lady stuff at the competitions


If it's fluffchucking - the one armed dude that casts a fly further than anyone up Tunstall with loads of arms and legs. And catches fish all the fecking time
 
right - I reckon this has gone totally off topic. The topic was to do with Sea Angler magazine.

Everyone is entitled to their own personal opinion - a lot of people have had their say, and I've had mine, so I reckon thats all areas covered.

No more on the subject from me.
 
So you don't rate Tournament casters yet you use a 300 yard badge as your avatar? Your register and use a Tournament casting forum. and now it turns out that you want to go to a tourny to report on it even though 'you think' the Sea Angler dropped casting because its boring. What a wonderful journalistic decision that was


- Good luck. The lads will be looking forward to meeting you. Bring your 300 yards badge with you ;)

Would Danny REALLY admit that he is not a good angler? I have seen some great pictures of him with BIG fish and had some great discussions about them. Surely thats what the common angler want to hear about? Surely thats why you felt the need to infect every forum you could find (including Tourny casting ones) with pictures of yourself fishing in Gambia (or whereever it was) recently

FYI Neil MacKellow was a sucessful match angler in his day

Also FYI most 'Anglers' couldn't give a **** about match angling. 99% of Anglers and most of your readership are pleasure fishermen.


This is great fun. More please :)
 
DANNY is a very good angler and he fishers under his feet when he needs to
i will be fshing with him 1st week in june
as it the only time i stand a chance of beating him..
 
Penn 525, Matchman, (anything else I've missed)

Why do you constantly have to apologise when you're on this site. Seems like every post I read of yours - 4 posts later your apologising...

Do you deliberately wind people up? What good is this string/topic now that you've been back through and deleted most of it?

Well when i looked in on this thread this morning i was dissapointed to say the least, ive said it before and i'll say it again, this site and forum is here to help people, share experiences and learn from each other. It seems that we have lost another experieced angler to learn from and that doesnt do any of us any good. It should never go this far...
