Yep, planning started in earnest now. Campervan going over (just a tiny bit in advance) this weekend (but it has a few other jobs to do there in the meantime!), new tent arrived this morning and full scale planning meeting called for next week - roll on June (although got a dry-run in May with the MotoGP).

You lot are a bit keen, starting now when there's 3 months to go.

Mind you, airing the sleeping bag for 3 months is probably a good idea, but brush the mud off it first

Are you accepting visitors from KN into the contest too - just dug out my fishing gear tonight for other reasons, so seems silly not to pack it too ...

Normally its me who is totally unprepared.... and usually the transport has something horrid go wrong with it 2 days before leaving. "Water pump for a Nissan 300c on a Saturday Sir... you must be having a laugh"
Probably silly to mention that... but a reserve banger will be waiting in the wings this year. Dont worry, it will be equally as shite as the Chavalier Grin

Come on over... should be fun.
Perdu said that the Carp were rolling on the surface in evenings of previous years so should still be there and Elvis caught some years back, so lets have a go.
I have some BBQ flavour Spam from OZ that should be killer bait. Worth taking a spinner or two as well incase there are Perch.
You used to be able to buy maggies from French supermarkets, but its been years since I last fished over there so not sure what is available now. Sweetcorn could also be a goer... as will Halibut pellets.

Should be fun, something to do in the afternoons to slow the consumption that leads to evenings finishing too early du to over refreshment Wink 8 days in a field is a while.... so lets get on it... unless we get booted off by some official that thinks we are going to be eating them! YUK!

Barbless hooks, no keepnets and I will take a landing net and mat... incase of anything plump. Biggies dont deserve to be mauled around and dumped on hard ground.

Never thought we would be discussing fishing on CA Grin

oh... and has Mrs JDS got any of those Mega pain killers left (Lady PP says thanks again) that she had in Holland?? Sure they will be required at some point over the week  Wink
