This annual Hooked For Heroes fundraiser has grown year on year and is now the biggest Help For Heroes charity fishing match in the UK.
The 300 peg, six hour match will take place at Garbolino Lindholme Lakes on August the 2nd 2014 with the draw at 9 am and a £25 entry fee.
Anglers of all abilities are welcome, from absolute beginners to seasoned match anglers.
It’s also a chance to meet and compete with some of UK’s top match anglers with the likes of Marc Rodger, Jason Le Bosquet, Nick Speed, Dave Swain, Zac Brown, Shane Atkin and many more top names all coming together for this fantastic cause.
There will also be a separate raffle on the day with hundreds of prizes up for grabs including coaching days with some of the top anglers and coaches.
Dave is also planning to have a couple of ex World Champions and a few celebrity anglers booked in for the match too.
Match organiser Dave Stott said: “I’m amazed at how this has grown, but in another way I’m not because I know how well people respond to the Help For Heroes charity.
“When I organised the first match six years ago there were nine of us sat around my local pond, and just look at it now…. 300 anglers at a prestigious fishery with young kids with their dads sat behind them, pleasure anglers, seasoned match anglers right through to world, UK, Fish ‘O’ Mania and Maver Match This Champions. It makes my head spin. Where else could you go for a day’s fishing and quite possibly peg next to a top angler AND raise money for Help For Heroes?”
