Neal Posted June 12, 2014 Report Posted June 12, 2014 Next weekend - from 6pm Friday 20th June until 6pm Sunday 22nd June we have the Best Specimen 48 Hr. Competition. Best specimen recorded wins. There is a £5.00 entrance fee to fish this competition and winner takes all! In the past this has been cash - just wondered if entrants would like to convert cash to a prize / prizes or a combination of both depending on number of entrants eg 15 Entrants -Super Kenzaki Braid rod - (rating of choice) 20 Entrants - Rod - plus cash 25 Entrants - Rod and Reel combo Book in as normal and put cash / prize after your name so that I can arrange prize accordingly! Money to be paid to me / other Committee member or Brian to set up Pay pal thing! Neal - prize Quote
great white Posted June 12, 2014 Report Posted June 12, 2014 Not able to fish this year, which is a shame as its one of my favorite comps. Good luck to all that take part Neal it has always been 1st , 2nd and third if my memory serves me right Tight lines all Quote
Adam F Posted June 13, 2014 Report Posted June 13, 2014 I'd like to fish but the club BBQ right in the middle of the comp will hinder and serious plans. Will play by ear, if I go it will be Sun only. Not fussed what you decide prize wise. However if the club has spare funds, why not do 1st 2nd and 3rd and subsidise the extra on top of the £5 entry? The rod and reel combo would be good rather than money or vouchers... Quote
Neal Posted June 13, 2014 Author Report Posted June 13, 2014 I was wondering if club BBQ might restrict numbers - but not everyone in the club has put their names down to attend that either! If however, the consensus is to change the date - given the open comp is a week later, then I will happily do so. comments welcome............ Neal Quote
alun j. Posted June 13, 2014 Report Posted June 13, 2014 How about the weekend of July 4...when some of us may be doing Alderney take 4 ?? Adam F 1 Quote
great white Posted June 13, 2014 Report Posted June 13, 2014 Good idea Alun Gets my vote but as I said I would have to miss the first one To prevent a clash with the bbq would be reason enough IMHO Quote
Matt Posted June 13, 2014 Report Posted June 13, 2014 Mine two allthough im in the naughty boys not paid club so probably don't have a vote. Quote

Neal Posted June 16, 2014 Author Report Posted June 16, 2014 48 Hr comp postponed only 1 more week until the open........... Quote
great white Posted June 17, 2014 Report Posted June 17, 2014 Thanks Neal We will be back in time to just miss the open, but can now try our best to fish the 48hr comp When are you thinking of holding it? Quote
great white Posted June 30, 2014 Report Posted June 30, 2014 Its been two weeks since this competition was postponed Has the new date been decided If so, can you let us know, as with notice I can make arrangements with work and crew. If it is not going to be fished, it would be good to know why. Charlie Quote
Neal Posted July 1, 2014 Author Report Posted July 1, 2014 I haven't got round to re-scheduling it - that's the only reason! We have a summer species hunt booked for the 20th July - happy to run both Last weekend's open comp set the bar on species hunting? anyone want to try and better 22 species in one day? or even over 48hrs So 48Hr Comp will be run weekend 18th - 20th July Put you name down early and please pay your £5.00 if you wish to enter Court Jester - Neal + crew TBA Quote
Adam F Posted July 1, 2014 Report Posted July 1, 2014 So is the 48hr comp now a species comp? Looks that way from the post above? Quote
alun j. Posted July 1, 2014 Report Posted July 1, 2014 I read them as overlapping comps....... 48 hrs runs the weekend as usual...as a specimen comp., with the pool Sunday is the species comp. You could be in both or either. Quote
great white Posted July 1, 2014 Report Posted July 1, 2014 Sorry I am getting a bit confused now, but I may have missed something while I was on holiday According to my diary and the calender on here The 20th July is the Club Ray comp Charlie Quote
alun j. Posted July 1, 2014 Report Posted July 1, 2014 Confusing !!...or what?? Calendar has 'Flatfish Comp' on 20th July......the Ray Comp is in Oct. Quote
alun j. Posted July 1, 2014 Report Posted July 1, 2014 .....and that has always been 2 comps in one !! Quote
Adam F Posted July 1, 2014 Report Posted July 1, 2014 Clearly it's a 2 day comp where you try to catch the best specimen of the flatfish species? We know they are trying to mix the format up to attract new people! :-) Quote
Maverick Martin Posted July 1, 2014 Report Posted July 1, 2014 Sorry I am getting a bit confused now, but I may have missed something while I was on holiday According to my diary and the calender on here The 20th July is the Club Ray comp Charlie Charlie 20th July is in what when and where as the clubs flatfish comp http://www.pbsbac.co.uk/ipb/topic/15433-2014-competition-dates/ also in the calendar the same http://www.pbsbac.co.uk/ipb/calendar/ The Ray comp is on the 19th October and is in the calendar as that http://www.pbsbac.co.uk/ipb/calendar/1-community-calendar/10-2014 Did you get sun stroke and plastered again Quote
