|
The total amount raised from the event was 1092.00 Euros. The amount raised from the competition entrants’ fees was 700 Euros - to be divided between BDAA and APROSUBA 12. A special thank you to Robert Felton. His son had to cancel his trip to the competition as he managed to find work and couldn’t attend. The entrance fee was returned to Robert on his arrival, however Robert donated the 300.00 Euros for the cause saying ‘I didn’t expect it back, so I would like to donate the fee to the fundraising event’ The total amount of bets in our local area for Craig’s total catch weight came to 124.00 Euros, so another 62.00 Euros raised for APROSUBA 12, the other half went to competition contestant Trevor who’s guess was the nearest at 88kg. Craig’s mother Ruth who lives in Alicante, donated a meal for two at a local restaurant. A total of 30.00 euros was placed as bets, again for the nearest guess of Craig’s total weight and was won by Mrs Annie Francis. The
fishing Robert Felton managed 5 fish of 14, 21, 28.5, 29 and 27lb. He received an A-Tract Baits voucher, a section of bait from Ebro Carp and a 1 week holiday with Extrema Fishing Spain. A few words from Robert, his full comment can be seen on our testimonials page.
It
was an experience you cherish especially when you have caught a few
lumps previous both in the UK and France.
