Hi, you've already taken the 1st step, telling everyone what you intend to do. now you need to draft a post to see how many would attend, and/or give donations/prizes etc
if you need help myself, rabbi2 and a few others have done this a few times. just ask. Cheers..Mick

Hi, its a bit too far for me and conner, if it was a summer meet we would come down with the tent and camp somewhere, Im sure you will get some to attend, but as with all the comps/charity meets weve had on here, its the money total that counts most, hope you make a barrow load for the kids. Cheers..Mick

I'll do my best to get along for this one. Will you be posting more details on the competition?

Will it be pegged or zoned?
Number of rods/hooks? etc

Hope you get a decent turn out for a worthy cause.

Hi ksl.
I would like to say that i'm defo in for the comp, i'll bring along the father in law too who has just moved to the south coast and getting into fishing. It's a brilliant cause and i'm sorry for your loss. I'll have round up at work with staff and customers too so hopefully put some more money in the pot. If you need any help in organising etc PM me and i'll lend a hand.
