Graham Slater : September 2nd

A truly inspiring talk from Graham, delivered in his own inimitable no nonsense style. We were taken on a journey from the humble drains and pits of Lincolnshire, to mighty Scottish and Irish Loughs and onto the trout reservoirs, with the culmination being his phenominal last seasons catches, taking in the learning processeses along the way.
An excellent talk that will be one of the highlights of this months PAC Conference at Stoneleigh Park.....

The Alan Partridge of Piking doing his thang!!

A top presentation and well recommended..Thanks Graham

And don't worry chaps....there will be plenty of sausages and chips at next months meeting!!!

ABOUT THE P.A.C.

The Pike Anglers' Club of Great Britain was formed in 1977 as a direct result of changing attitudes toward pike. For far too long pike had been regarded by fishery owners and some anglers as vermin, to be killed and removed at all costs. Since it's inception, the PAC has done much to drastically change this mistaken attitude and pike are now widely regarded as a positive element in the natural balance of any fishery.Pike fishing has without doubt become one of the most specialised branches of coarse fishing. Not least in the methods of handling, unhooking and safe return of the fish once caught.The PAC works continually for the benefit of all pike and pike anglers, we seek only to further the opportunities for pike fishing, whilst preserving all that pike fishing is all about.We strive to protect pike from persecution by those who do not understand, or choose to ignore, the facts about the important role the pike plays in the balance of nature. We also work to promote pike conservation through safe practice by anglers.
