Catfish Study Group = Show 2011

OPEN SHOW 2011 Back to Show Index

Our Open Show on the Sunday 18th September was once again a great success. The number of entries was slightly down this year with a total of 127, but there was a lot of quality catfish on show for the audience to view later on in the day.

The Committee once again would like to thank all exhibitors for turning up on the day to show their fish.

Thanks must also go to Show Secretary Brian Walsh and the Judges on the day for their hard work, and the helpers in the canteen again did a sterling job keeping up the teas, coffees and the food flowing along.

The auction also went well and of course thanks must go to the CSG members who helped on the day and also our resident auctioneer Steve Spence for another excellent job.

Special mention must be made of course to the sponsors of our show, which you can see below each class, which meant we did not have to charge for fish entries. Remember it is only £10 to sponsor a class for next years show.

Hope to see you all again in 2012.
