Silloth Championships
Hi Peter The Silloth Championships are run by the North West Sea Angling League. The match is pegged over high water this year. The main catches will be Flounders & Dabs with the chance of the odd Bass, Plaice & Dogfish. Winning bags are usually 20 plus fish. Our web site was run & organised by our Treasurer. Unfortunately we are struggling to get a volunteer to open up the site again. Once it is up & running again I'll send details. Thanks for putting our poster on your open page Regards Mike Posted 3rd April 2014 |

Re recent forum comments on WSAA alleged non support of Ship Open.
It was agreed at AGM 31st August 2011, that WSAA's insurance would cover The Ship Open 2011.
Despite recent forum comments there has been no change.
Or in other words WSAA will still support The Ship Open.
