I've just tried to contact Ashmire via their contact form on the website. Hopefully this gets a reply. I've left my email and phone number. My hope is a second person contacting regarding the social will prod a response. Fingers crossed.
Otherwise are we looking at a plan B?
Have to say, if that's the case I'd prefer the M25 venue, (where is that exactly @InteraX?) as it's nearer to me, but can do Horseshoe, although it's nearly four hours drive away.
I've looked at videos of the (Horseshoe) lake and it's a monster at 62 acres, and quite weedy apparently? Personally I'd like somewhere with a better chance of a fish; then again that could just be because I'm not used to fishing in big weedy lakes!?
Sill, Ashmire may come through yet, but it'd be good to have somewhere booked, paid and confirmed as we're so close now.
