Thanks very much for your response to my post, very, very helpful. Everything in spain is so tied up in rules and regulations, they seem to love it, or perhaps it just keeps people in jobs! I was thinking of a smallish venue with around 25 pegs and from what you say this would look sufficient. I have always really been a pleasure angler as I have generally fished rivers, teme, Severn, lugg, worcester stour, salwarpe etc. so match fishing has never been a major part of my sport. In the above venues if you don't pick one of the top 3 or 4 pegs you may as well go home, so the differing rules are something I shall have to learn. I think my first port of call would be to join a club and learn the ropes. I was thinking of selling baits and terminal tackle on site as the tackle shops are all a long way off and, as they say, every little helps. I'm hoping to be out before the end of january but with the current covid rules not counting my chickens just yet. What would you suggest as stock? I'm thinking mainly commons and mirrors but possibly tench and crucians too. I've yet to find breeders in spain, in the uk there were dozens, but nothing as yet in spain.
Thanks again for your help, if anything else comes to mind please drop me a line.
