looking forward to it, just the weekends though ( might fish tuesday night, paul medd tells me there's a few rods on offer, as prizes), been stroking me greens tonight and telling them they must do much better this time

[ducky]

If these sea come should be a good festival.  Making it more interesting. Nice warm up for winter.

[Lobbers]

sea is kicking up allready duck, prefere it flat but your right, could make it very interesting

[ducky]

Sod the flat sea. I hope its cold and windy. With big seas running. Fishing may be harder, don't know If it will be. But I enjoy it more, maybe I am mad..

Congratulations to everyone in volved in the fantastic Scarborough festival. 100 years is something very special. A big well done to the likes of Pete and the committee who work tireless behind the scenes to make it all happen.

Best of luck to all who take part. May your fish bags be bursting at the seems.

[Lobbers]

you would be surprized duck, a lot of the scabby lads thrive off the rough seas, cos they cant compete with bemo, over the years some of the biggest bags and fish have come off rough seas,   i love both flat and rough, but dont know what to do

You need to learn marks that fish in swell Paul, that way you will do well regardless of the weather. Start looking at the likes of North Hawsker, Ravenscar, Jacksons and Hayburn wyke. It will pay dividends over time.

Everyone will be wanting to do well this year as its 100th festival, and the chances of us being around for the 200th is pretty slim 

To put a bit of sauce on there will be some great prizes and over £10,000 in prize money for all events.

The first Sat match offers £500-£200-£100 for 1st 2nd 3rd

              Sun                     Â£600-£250-£175-£150-£100

              Wed                   Â£300-£150

 Filey Brigg Angling Society are sponsering the fri evening match and the top 10 placings are all cash prizes.

The All England on the final Sun offers £1000-£500-£150-£140-£100.

The evening matches are well supported too!
 
There is a lot more on offer but it would take me all night to type it out 

Please take part if you get half the chance and lets make this a festival to remember.             

[Baramundi Bob]

If we get any reports, results and pictures, will it be possible to keep them all in this one topic like the filey festival was please. Just makes it easy for anyone looking to keep up with happenings.

[ducky]

Tight lines to all who are fishing.
