Thames Gateway region is BACK!

Finally Thames Gateway region is BACK! Maybe a little bit late but with number of great talks scheduled. First we will welcome Nathan Edgell - a recent star of pike angling, featured on the cover of the Pikelines, captor of some BIG pike on lures, dead, and live baits. We will enjoy his talk, great photography, and refreshing attitude on Monday 6th, January, 7:30PM in The Olympic, Beechenlea Lane, Swanley, Kent BR8 8DR (map). This fantastic angler will get you eager to go out fishing!

Free food and piker's raffle. All anglers welcome, entry £4 PAC members, £5 for non-members.

Finally for those who have not yet had a chance of meeting the new region RO, from left to right: Michal Dziemianko, Sean Ellis, and Nick Watkins just before last Essex kid's pike fishing course!

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.
