Warrington Anglers Association Guardian Notes 17th July 2008
We have had reports from bailiffs on several waters during the last couple of weeks of various items of litter being left on pegs and the culprits in a couple instances have been identified. If you are one of the guilty ones you know who you are expect to lose your license very soon we don't want you in this Association.
Another example of stupidity was reported from Statham pool where someone had left a bundle of used line stuffed into the undergrowth this is just not acceptable. Take it home and burn it or wind it into a bundle and cut it into small pieces.
On a pleasanter note most of the waters are fishing well, Karl Stott say he is over the moon with his first ever leather carp from Moore Quarry the fish was in mint condition and caught at approx 9am on Saturday morning, he also had a very pretty common of 14lb 8oz fishing from the high bank side. His tactics and I quote 16mm custom rolled boilies on a blowback rig /8inch sheath skin hook link/long hair to a size 8 Ashima c-420 hook. I have absolutely no idea what that rig is but I am sure it will make perfect sense to our carp angling members. Also at the quarry on Sunday Jamie Critchley had an 11lb bream on hair rigged half boilies.
The small lake at Sandiway has improved and some of the newly stocked carp have been included with tench and chub in catches. Best time to fish is evening and in cloudy conditions due to the clarity of the water.
Worthington lakes are fishing well particularly Arley which is benefiting from being lowered there have been some very nice bream and carp out and we would really like some `photos for the web site please.
The rivers are all still fishing well with the Dane consistent as ever giving good catches of grayling trout and chub except last Saturday when it was bank high however it goes down so quickly that Sunday morning saw it back to normal when Dave Davies had two trout of 2lb each and six chub biggest 5lb+
The Mersey match was cancelled last Thursday when the river was judged to be too high and dangerous to precede. However generally pleasure and match catches of roach and skimmers are good even two brown trout were caught during Sundays match.
Keep your entries coming in the July prizes are now up for grabs!
