Hi folks. its been a hard decision to have to make but as expected the sea state is such that it will not be safe for the Puffin Competition to go ahead tomorrow. We have discussed the conditions at length between ourselves and with some very experienced anglers, and all agree that it must be postponed. We propose to hold the event next Saturday 3rd of June. We will post updates with all the details soon. can you please share this news as some will be travelling here today. We hope you all agree this is the right decision as there are kayak anglers of all levels of experience attending and your safety is our main concern.

safety first, even if it turns out to be a lovely day you can do nothing else but to go with the forecast and having been down the front this evening it is very choppy
