tinribs Posted August 26, 2011 Report Posted August 26, 2011 Hi folks, I'm organising a 24hr charity event with some excellent anglers and a few less so... As such need a quick list of runs waters anywhere from midlands down to the south coast. (I draw the line at Thorpe Lea though) Brasenose is favourite for me at the moment. Bear in mind my carping has always been small intricate waters for old carp of any size, not commercial carping before you start giving me grief! Got the angling press on board, now need a venue, please help its for a really good cause CHEERS! Quote
tinribs Posted August 28, 2011 Author Report Posted August 28, 2011 Come on folks, lend a hand here? I've been in contact with BCAC for the waters they've used but I'd like to hear from anyone with suggestions. Brasenose, Broadland, farlows etc... Let's have those suggestions in case I've missed a venue. Its a uk epilepsy charity so crack on, don't be shy All it takes for evil to prevail is for good men to do nothing fortune favours the brave Quote
andy52 Posted August 29, 2011 Report Posted August 29, 2011 Sorry can't help but good luck in your search and hope you manage to have a successful event Quote

tinribs Posted August 29, 2011 Author Report Posted August 29, 2011 Cheers Bowza, my mum used to live a 10 min walk away so will have anoher look at those as I'd forgotten about them. Cheers Quote
Gaz Posted August 29, 2011 Report Posted August 29, 2011 good luck mate, hope it goes well. i aint really got much input for you water wise though although i MIGHT be able to talk the club i am in to close a water for the day? we have a runs water that is a damn ugly water (just a whole in the ground) or a couple of really pretty waters that aint runs waters but most should catch. another runs water we have is a lovely lake but if i can talk the club into closing one i dont think they would allow this one to be used.. send me any info you have and dates your looking at and i will see if i can help. all our waters are near colchester mate. if your interested i will try my best to get it free rather than pay day tickets anywhere else but dont hold your breath on that one lol.

calamity_carper Posted August 29, 2011 Report Posted August 29, 2011 The only "runs" waters i can think of near me in the midlands are barston lakes, earlswood lakes and the obvious one drayton reservoir Quote
ward2k70 Posted August 29, 2011 Report Posted August 29, 2011 The only "runs" waters i can think of near me in the midlands are barston lakes, earlswood lakes and the obvious one drayton reservoir yeah i would have to agree. Quote
tinribs Posted August 30, 2011 Author Report Posted August 30, 2011 GazMeesh, great cheers mate PM en route as soon as I'm on a proper computer not iPod! Why do runs waters always look like a hole in the ground??! Owners lack of interest perhaps?? As for dates this is going to be dependent on the sponsored anglers so should know in a week or two. Thanks to the midland lads for suggestions and input, not heard of earlswood so will have a look, I suppose the venue area will be dependent on the sponsoring team and their willingness to travel! All suggestions appreciated and welcomed keep 'em coming!! Cheers Quote
