The Asian Angler January 2015 Digital Issue - Malaysia - English | Page 353

For those not chasing the prestigious Pairs title now sought
after worldwide the DAIWA Cup is great. The individual
match runs inside the Pairs and allows the regular match
angler to compete for cash prizes and the top ten get big
vouchers to spend on tackle & accessories too. With section
payouts every five pegs or so and a best by county section
each day it means hundreds of envelopes full of cash are distributed. Even I nearly made it with a second in section to
Francis McGoldrick at Kiltybarden!

I had my first taste as an ‘international’ match angler. And
as for my two modest goals; I didn’t finish last and I didn’t
blank either so it was a success and I shall come back next
time and hope to do better having got lots of tips from some
of the best match anglers in the world!

I sincerely hope that more international anglers will take
part in the coming years and the World Pairs will grow from
strength to strength with solid support from sponsors and
participation from all of the top anglers again.
