BFW fish inn 23 rd July river Severn at Hampton Loade all for breast cancer

Bit early I know but with the close season coming up some of you might not be click on again till June.
With the help of the kind people of Kinver freeliners and Andy Frances. I have sorted out a fish inn on Kinver Freeliners Hamptone Loade stretch on the 23 rd JULY (Sunday ). All the money rise will go to breast cancer charity. There be a prize for the biggest barbel and the most caught (before you say no keepnets :p ) and a raffle as well as a bar B.Q also one or two surprises we trying to sort out . The price will be £10 for the day and all that will all go to the charity. If you fancy meeting other barbel anglers from BFW and fishing this great stretch of river don't matter if you not fished it before me and a few others be on hand to help just drop me a pm . I be taking places down and will only booked places when I have receive the cheque. Please write all cheques to KINVER FREELINERS A/C pm me and send you my details

PLEASE NOTE ITS NOW THE 23 RD JULY DUE TO Steve Willams getting dates mixed up:rolleyes:

A pink fish-in ... count me in! As long as it doesn't clash with the Dudmaston eel night ;) Should be warmer than the last BFW fish-in at Hampton Loade (-7 :eek:) and a lot more fish on the bank. For anyone who hasn't fished there, it's a really beautiful place, and has regular steam trains running along the opposite bank.

No clash Andy;)

Well done Dean, for getting this off the ground and running.
Hopefully it will be a great day, with plenty of money raised for a great cause.

count me in dean, i lost my wife after 29 years to BC.in may (after suffering with it twice) & do as much as i can for the various charities, the fishing will be a bonus. i know you do what you think best but may i suggest severn hospice as one of them as i have seen 1st hand the work they do & how those angels go about doing it.

Hi Dean, bit far out but I will initially say yay, thanks for organising this, I still shiver when I think back to THAT night in my bivvy at -7 with 3 season bag...........!! I thought I was much tougher :)
 
Ian dont worry I promise it not be -7.With help of a good friend trying to get one or two surprises sorted out as well .Trying to make it a little different from the normal fish inn. Thanks lads for interest already
 
Ian, you couldn't have been that cold ... I could actually feel your snoring coming though the ground. Although I was comatose for most of the night (what was left of it) after 'that' session in the pub. Woke up to find the end of my sleeping bag was touching the bivvy wall and was frosted over! Good weekend though.
 
Andy, just think how cold it would have been without the pint and a half of light shandy we had during that sensible and moderate session in the pub ;)

Would there be a "Camping" option this time around Dean?
 
Ian, as the landlord kindly agreed to stay open a few minutes or so longer than normal, I decided to treat myself to an extra half of shandy, something I wouldn't normally do. Gave me a great few hours sleep, but left me feeling a little subdued in the morning.

If Deano can square it with the landowner and the club, it would suit me to have a couple of shandies in the River and Rail followed by some kip in the bivvy and an early start for the barbel on the Sunday. I'd probably fish Saturday afternoon/evening before the pub then.
