24th August  2010 Warrington Anglers Association Guardian Notes

The River Mersey is currently on top form with 142lbs being the total catch taken between 24 anglers in our Sunday match series. Top honours went to Mersey regular Gary Manion with a mixed net of bream, roach, perch, and dace for 11-9-0. Neil Buist was runner-up with another mixed bag which included some cracking perch for 9-12-4.

Our local fishery team report that WAA Wigan waters are providing good mixed pleasure catches. Mowpin and the Carp Pool regulars are having good sport with crucians, rudd, tench, chub, and carp to 6lbs; whilst at Woodshaw Reservoir quality crucians and tench are feeding well on either pellet or paste. Worthington Lakes are providing steady sport with roach and bream to feeder or pole tactics but the carp are not feeding as well as usual.

Ian Simpson had a good pole catch of small tench, rudd, bream, and three carp with the best at 12-4-0 from High Legh Pools. Ian reckons that he had well over 35lbs of fish and he lost two carp at the net on his light tackle. He alternated between home-made paste and maggot.

Last Saturday saw our senior team competing on the River Trent in the Division 1National Championships.  Their 28^th final position saw them come in the top third beating many good teams. Our best individual result was by Martin Griffiths who came second in B section with 8100. In total 10 teams were relegated.
