Won't there be the obligatory driving to the crag lake/pond scene?
the big question will the fish be graded using metric or imperial w&m?
In my experience golf is a lot cheaper.
Lets just say I wont turn up looking like Isaac Walton.

Maybe we could get someone professional to film it?, do a proper job on it. After the forge dam scene we all sack it to some big carp fishery in France and catch some whoppers. 28th and 29th of June are a no go for me, I'll be on my hands and knees in a field in Glastonbury trying to find my soul. Apart from that I'm good, pretty free most weekends.
Glad to hear more interest yall. Next step, mooting a venue and date! Loxley sounds good since we could have the lake to ourselves for a match and only pay for the pegs taken. Shame if some have fished it in a way but that's life. I'd be psyched for slamming the silvers on a canal since that's my strongest game. Size 28 hooks, bloodworm, 4oz lines etc. Sure a commercial would make the most sense though?Old Bob Nudd canal video for a bit of psyche. Needs the intro music remixing to be more akin to The Real Thing in my eyes if they were looking to get others fuelled..

some pegs are significantly better than others to the point where angling skill becomes less important than the luck of the draw
