No sooner has the 2023 Match Angler Of The Year event concluded, we now turn our attention to the 2024 event with a number anglers having already booked their place in next year's final.
The 2024 final will now be a two-day event with anglers fishing both Woodside & Island pools across Saturday 29th and Sunday 30th March 2025. Entry for the event costs £60 per man (£30 each day) with the fishery NOT taking a peg fee.
As such, based on numbers for the 2023 final (12 anglers), the proposed payout is as follows:
Total prize fund £720
Overall Payout:
1st £210
2nd £190
3rd £170
4th £150
Note there will be a mandatory £10 pools each day, which will be paid back out in full either by way of overall lake wins or section wins, depending on numbers. This will be confirmed nearer the time once final numbers are known.
