Spring 25 social

[commonly]

Afternoon guys,

As the title might suggest, we're planning a meet up, early March, in Buckinghamshire. 

The venue we have in mind is a bit special, so a bit hush, hush for now

There's 4-5 spaces avaliable. 

Anyone interested?

I'm in 😂👍

Hi guys, if you are interested we could really do with a quick response but it is a special lake with some special fish, certainly a chance of breaking a pb 😎

Sounds really interesting.

Any idea of cost?

My biggest concern is weather/overnight temps in March though.

Buckinghamshire is easy to get to for me, so if you can confirm how long/dates and cost that would be great.

I'm up for it.

Hopefully people can understand why we had to be a little covert about it now it is booked now so all fine. We've assembled a crack team of carp.com members ready to take on the challenge

Sounds interesting, how much? and I already know that they allow dogs as long as they are kept on a lead...

 

Got a bit of juggling to do as I have NFL London tickets to pay for but very interested, so when does money need to be paid?

Hi Nick sadly we had to move quickly to secure it and we filled the available slots quite quickly. 

Hopefully next time it won't be so rushed.

Well done though and good luck to everyone going.

it certainly is up there with the best.

Which lake would you guys be on ?

(Too far for me though) looks a magical place 🎣🎣

[commonly]

Kingfisher, mate.

There's a few beauties in there.

I'm sure the others will post their captures, where as I will have to settle for a few rod shots & the view from the bivvy🤣

Cracking local pizza place delivers to the place. Can be a tough little nut to crack! 
Good luck!

It could be you.

Got my bait prepped for the social next week. 

Big fish crumb mix 😱😬😍

If it works, I'll have to nick a bit of that😉

[framey]

Not sure how much this venue has changed but 

the access into and out of it is very tight so if you have a transit sized vehicle expect to work on the steering.
also very easy to miss the turning into the lane.

there was another access point in a housing estate but that was mainly for parking for the other lake.

there are a few lakes in very close proximity to each other.

 

good luck to those going.

 

how much is a ticket now if you can get one.
