That's not true reg no one can ask to look in anyone's bag unless they are the organising party.

[Besty68]

Have read the rules but was wondering if club stewards would be present thats all, ask an angler if i can look through his bag !...worse than raking through a womans bag
I'm just in it for the experience as i'll be joining seaham club soon and will be fishing the club matches, never fished seaham south pier before, i know i'll need loads of leads but dont suppose it's worth asking for advise is it

[regpude]

Sorry.

Assume its the same as when I was on the committee, many years ago now (over 20). We'd act as stewards (I seem to remember, although it may be a flawed memory that committee couldn't fish the open) and be allocated a section to patrol. That would include checking bags pre the start of the comp, making sure people didnt start early etc.

Might sound like a daft question but this will be my first proper comp, when people are on about getting to their favourite mark early sunday morning...whats stopping them fishing before the match starts ? will there be stewards everywhere ?
Me and my son both got south pier pegs so doesn't really apply to me, just wondering...

There will be stewards dotted about here and there and also its in everybody's intrest who fishes to be vigelant /Also you must get your ticket signed when you catch a fish with estamated size + species

Go and find some one to sign your ticket or you will not be allowed to weigh in Phil this is the biggest way to keep a check on whats caught and a comp this big there will not be many places were people are secluded

Phil you can fish next to me. I should be able to keep you busy with your ruler and pen , i wish lol

[sean start]

So if you catch say 3 fish and they are 3lb 6lb and 8lb then you would just take the one fish and weigh it in aye? Also what is the crack with having the fish recorded by someone next to you? Just it has on tickets number of fish ect. Not totally sure as never fished a open before, cheers.
