I'm more worried about people from the north getting here quicker. That alone should be enough to cancel it.

Admittedly I don't know much about this but there'll be a monstrous waiting list won't there? Especially if you don't know anyone to recommend you.
Hoping to get on for this Summer seems incredibly optimistic.

I don't think it's the sort of water that has a waiting list. Remember it's not a club/syndicate. It has an owner who for obvious reasons no ones gonna name here. It's his water. I'd imagine if you get on with him then quite rightly you'd get a ticket. Exactly how I'd do it if I owned a fantastic water than I didn't need to make a profit from.

though you can Google it in about 3 seconds, it's not a secret, just saying

I wasn't saying it was a secret. I just thought out of decency it would be best not to put his name up.

I'm pretty sure you have to be recommended by a member to get a days only ticket.
I spent 2 years on days until the year Peter died, I got on pretty well with him and all the syndicate guys I met were absolutely fantastic, it was everything you imagined it to be.
I kept my season ticket and returned on days a few years later, and found things to have changed and not for the better. Many of the old faces I had come to know had gone and a number of new guys seemed to have chips on their shoulders, I've got a night ticket so I'm better than you, "your just day ticket scum".
JH is a lovely bloke and there were some good guys still on but I didn't like the attitude of some and decided to move on as I found out I wasn't going to get on the nights anyway.
I enjoyed most of my time there, met some top guts and made a life long friend but if it's anything like when I left then don't meet your hero's unless you like being spoken to like **** and then blanked by the guy you spent 2 hrs brewing and chatting with the week before.
Maybe not want you wanted to hear but saying it as it is.

What a bloody shame, think quite a few of the Korda guys are on there now including Damain Clarke sales director of Korda. It seems under Redlands and now sadly passed Peter it was truly amazing. Drove past a few times, even got butterflies just doing that.

Funny. I see it the other way. I wouldn't want to have been on there in the mad days. Whilst I find it funny to read about all the antics that went on, although I get on well with people, I very rarely drink and I don't do drugs etc so I'm not sure I'd have fitted in with that crowd. It appeals to me much more now and from talking to the guys I know on there they still love it. There's definitely something special about a Savs fish.
Just to pick up on what you've said there. Why should it matter if Damien Clarke is fishing there? He's a lovely guy. Quietly goes about his business. Just happens to work in the trade. I've met far more troublesome coke head builders on the bank than anyone from Korda.

Just out of interest, what exactly are you referencing to, with regards to Korda guys and Damien Clarke?

Simon Pitt the host of the Korda Podcasts has mentioned several times about being on Savay

Damien Clarke is an absolute gent/ nice guy and brilliant angler, got to know him pretty well on another water before savay.
I don't see how him or korda for that matter being associated with any water is a nagative, if that's where it's going. Both have done such a lot of positive stuff for carp fishing.
