No Shaun the riddings is not far for me to travel to, as i live near Kingsbury, the reason i like Cuttle Mill for a match venue is that it is fairly new to matches, it also gives anglers who are not mad on carp after carp and how fast you can haul em in a chance to catch some massive bags of roach and other silvers, it would be interesting as although carp will play a part in the match it would not suprise me to see a true mixed bag of fish taken on pole, feeder, waggler in fact lots of methods, i am not a massive fan of the out and out commercial and like Cuttle Mill or not it is a true natural venue that is as pretty as anywhere and you never know what is going to take your bait next. As i said it is just to see what people want, if they want to go and catch 10 -15 carp for 100lb then the riddings may be there option, but i like variation and going somewhere new for a match, not sure why you dont like the venue Shaun, its not the waiting for the 16th of June, its when i can get the time off work to fish and what suits everyone else. Why not organise a match at the Riddings, i am sure it will suit a lot of people, i have nothing against the Riddings but i have done my time hauling carp after carp fishing for a dozen bites, thats why i finished trout fishing because you know what your gonna catch time after time and to me it gets boring, i know i am in a minority but love natural mixed venues, i just love catching fish, any fish, as i said its just an idea.
