I have been match fishing since 1981 and I had always wanted to find a way to easily access details, match reports and results on the forthcoming venues I had booked into. Information like 'Hot Pegs' (Flyers), main species to go for, best rigs and baits, feeding methods, etc. Now quite a lot of this information is held in my memory, but I'm sure like a lot of other match anglers we forget some of this, especially for venues we do not fish on a regular basis. Therefore i came up with the idea for this web site. If we all put down our thoughts, methods and generally how we would approach certain venues, and how they may change for different times of the year etc, this can only be of benefit to other like minded match anglers. Add to that the match results which will be a wealth of information on each venue. I hope this becomes a success, it will all depend on the members providing the information. Hopefully some of the fisheries owners will participate and post their results here too. There are no plans to charge any form of membership I intend to provide this information free to anyone and everyone who would like to access it.
