Auction of Entrants Fish
Only fish which have been entered in the show may be included in the auction. This is an optional part of participating in the show
Auction proceeds will be returned via Direct Debit / Cash collected on the day if you are present.
Should you wish to participate in the auction, we request that you indicate a reserve price/ minimum bid (otherwise we will get the best price for you).
If a fish doesn’t meet the reserve it will be passed-in and you must collect the fish between 2-3pm on the 2/09/23 or between 12pm-3pm 3/09/23. Please specify if you do not want fish to be returned, any unsold fish that the owner does not want returned becomes a donation to the club.
Please know which fish you will and will not be auctioning when you submit your entry forms, changes are incredibly difficult for us to do during the show.
