North Down Forum Meet 26/09/10

#1 Post by Drew »

Right Lads I'm sticking this up a Month in advance to get a good bit of interest running before we go ahead with it.
Venues can be decided closer to the time, dependant on numbers.

We'll get somewhere thats easily accesable from Belfast.

Just want to gage some interest before proceeding as it wouldn't be the first one of these to fall through.
2015 Lure: Pollack, Herring, Whiting, Sand Goby, Poor Cod, Pouting

what about a mullet meet at comber behind the garage, seems a popular enough spot and loads of space for a dozen anglers, plus its been well ground-baited all summer so the fish are easy enough to catch.
Or plan B. Donaghadee and see if your wee mates are still around and feeling brave :lol:
If someone shows you a mark to fish, respect it and dont pass it of as one of your own, dont tell every man and his dog about it.

I was thinking maybe Ballyholme Beach Ronald, a few fish, and plenty of room?
