General comments: Food was good , could have done with a roll and cup of tea when we arrived. and would have liked to have our bait boat ready when we arrived. A&J response: To Mr Thompson as you can imagine our first port of call when you arrive on the venue is to get the anglers to there chosen swims once this is done the bait orders are delivered. We supply the bait boats to the anglers after the evening meal as a collective instructional is given by our head bailiff to ensure that every angler hiring these items understands the restrictions and utility of the boats, this is important as many anglers have never used baitboats. the kitchen area is also open once deliveries have be done so you would have been able to collect food items there if you so wished, this was all detailed in you info pack given to you on the bus. regards Director Martyn Bocarisa
