Ladies & Gentlemen,

After taking the week off for a spot of fishing, I am pleased to report back from the Carthagena / Carp-angling.com & Stoney & friends 2005 Charity Fish In, which was held between 11th - 13th march.

The weekend was once again a great success resulting in us raising over £5,000 on the day with more to be collected.

I would like to thank all of those who attended the event as this year saw a lot of new faces. I would also like to thank those who donated money towards Macmillan Cancer Trust by simply sending cheques in - you can all be proud of yourselves as every penny helps.

Thanks must also go to this forum for allowing the event to be posted up for several months.

Finally from all who attended a special thanks must go to the following companys and individuals who donated prizes towards what can only be called an excellent raffle (It took almost two hours to complete). In no particular order …..

Chris Woodrow (Essex Angling ), Korda, MCF , Carp Addict Magazine, Fox International , Planet Prints, Tim Paisley, Southend Angling, RMC Angling, Moes co PVA, Neil Wait, Crafty Catcher Bait, Dave & Kathy Walsh (DK Fisheries France), Heathrow Bait Service, Lea valley Baits, Gardner Tackle, The Tackle Box, Nash Tackle, Advanced Carp Fishing Magazine, DT Baits, Dynamite Baits, Jim Shelley, Shimano UK, CarpQuest Specialist Tackle, CC Moore, Nutrabaits
Gold Label Tackle, Armaled, SBS, The Bait Feed Company, Nick Helleur Simpsons Tackle. Yateley Angling Centre, Tony Gibson and Martin Bowler

A full write up of the event will be available on www.stoneyandfriends.co.uk in the near future.

Once again many thanks for all your support, see you next year


Tim
