You'd have to be on another planet not to know what's happening this weekend.
Estimates very, but the word on the street is Piking 2007 is going to be the biggest-ever PAC Convention.
Pikers from all over the British Isles and further afield will be forsaking work and loved ones to celebrate the Pike Anglers Club's 30th Anniversary.
Who could blame them with an unrivalled line-up of speakers, not to mention a massive tackle fair to enjoy.
Some will be hoping to come away with a ticket to fish the legendary Lake of Menteith. Those who took part in the recent membership promotion will have their fingers crossed they'll be going home the owner of a brand new boat.
Piking 2007 is being held at Stoneleigh Park on Saturday. Tickets (£12.50) will be available on the door from 9.30am and parking is free.

About the PAC
The Pike Anglers' Club of Great Britain was formed in 1977 as a direct result of changing attitudes toward pike. For far too long pike had been regarded by fishery owners and some anglers as vermin, to be killed and removed at all costs. Since it's inception, the PAC has done much to drastically change this mistaken attitude and pike are now widely regarded as a positive element in the natural balance of any fishery.
Pike fishing has without doubt become one of the most specialised branches of coarse fishing. Not least in the methods of handling, unhooking and safe return of the fish once caught.
The PAC works continually for the benefit of all pike and pike anglers, we seek only to further the opportunities for pike fishing, whilst preserving all that pike fishing is all about.
We strive to protect pike from persecution by those who do not understand, or choose to ignore, the facts about the important role the pike plays in the balance of nature. We also work to promote pike conservation through safe practice by anglers.
