Is this a competition or just an open day type affair?

sounds more like a jack pike cull to me

( ALL pike over 9lb to be returned )

SO does this mean you will be taking all the pike under 9lb out or allowing them to be taken away ???

A like to your website would be a good idea

This is a Pike Fishing Festival. We usually hold a week of Pike Fishing by boat at the end of the Trout season, due to popular demand we have decided to open for the whole month for Bank Only.

What happens to the pike under 9lbs....can they be returned too?

And what about a website ????

This all seems rather authoritarian to me...

And what does happen to the sub 9lb Pike?..

Love to fish it but most of my lures are only 5.1/2 inches,can I still fish?

What will happen to Pike under 9lb?

I know this might sound like a stupid question but why do all plugs have to be more than 6 inches?

Feel free to laugh/sigh and then write a response but remember I am a newbie

They hope that their trout won't take them.

Aaaah right

I does doesn't it?

Don't like the sound of this at all. Very strict rules.

As a few have said: What happens to the pike under 9lbs?

So what if a trout grabs your lure? What is wrong with that? All my lures are under 6".

And, as has also been said, where is the website link?

I for one won't be going and can't see many members of this forum attending either.

me thinks the same, Lefty..

your right lads best left well alone.

sounds like a cull to me.... and i wont have anything to do with that

I do apologise.
Im just advertising that there is a Pike Week on Brenig next Month. I do not make the rules! i didnt realise i would get this kind of replies off such forum!

our web site is currently under construction!

I believe the reason for the lure sizes is so because of the trout!

thank you

llyn brenig

Still no answer to whats going to happen to the pike under 9lb though

The 6" rule includes the trebles too by the way, so if you're using a Slider for instance, which is approximately 5 1/2" without the trebles, it's actually quite legal with the additional treble's length on the end. Failing that, you could add a grub-tail to a long single onto the back end, thus extending the length.

.....Regards.....Andy.....

I have asked the PAC to look into this as they have previously had events on this water.

Until I find out the facts surrounding the issue of returning pike I will lock the Topic.
