15^th June 2010 Warrington Anglers Association Guardian Notes

The rivers opened on Wednesday and members will hopefully enjoy some decent sport, I would dearly love to be going out for a day on the Dee but have to get ready for my annual much anticipated fishing trip to the Emerald Isle. Along with fellow club secretary Bill Delves and angling columnist Dave Houghton this year we are exploring the potential of the massive Lough Ree in County Westmeath.

Well done to our Ladies National Team who this year still managed a third placed bronze medal despite missing two of the regular members due to my daughter Wendy arranging her wedding in Italy for the same day as the match. Fellow team mates Wendy Locker and Linda Cooke enlisted the last minute help of two other anglers to save the day.

 The Bridgewater is still in a strange mood match organiser Albert Morris commented on a lack of roach in the majority of catches on the Sunday Open at Kellogg's Wides. Although one angler managed to win his section with a decent net of roach, the rest caught bream, tench, and odd perch. The best bream was 4.5lb with tench to 3.5lb and quite a few bigger fish lost at the net. Worm and caster at 14m accounted for the better weights.

The May Catch of the Month was won by Adam Whelan with a cracking tench catch from Sandiway which broke his personal best three times on the same day with fish of 8-1-0, 8-4-0, and 9-0-0. Hard luck to his dad Paul who also had a PB of 8-8-0, however I am certain that he will share in the Bait-Tech products prize valued at £100 plus a Korda carp care kit.

A quantity of fencing belonging to the club has been stolen from our Grey Mist site the culprits told members they were moving it to another job for the club. Fortunately we have the vehicle number and several witnesses the information has been passed on to the police.

Please continue sending in your catch reports as they are valuable to both your fellow members and your committee. Contact me either by phone Tel 01928 716238 or email frank@warrington-anglers.org.uk.

HQ Parker Street is open as usual on Friday evening between 7 & 9pm for subscriptions, night permits, and new memberships (these can also be purchased from any of our tackle shop outlets listed on our website www.warrington-anglers.org.uk)
