14th September 2010 Warrington Anglers Association Guardian

Two of our members Helen Dagnall and Wendy Locker both from the North West have been selected to represent England again this year in the Women's World championships in South Africa at the end of October.

 Although the Angling Trust Ladies England team has secured some sponsorship for the team to take part in the event all the team members still have to each pay £1000 themselves in order to go. Helen and Wendy have organised two events to help them raise the necessary funds but time is short so hopefully with help and support from as many of us as possible they will manage it.  

The first is an OPEN match on the River Mersey here at Warrington on Sunday 18^th September price £12 all in the pegs are being donated by WAA (see details below). 

The other for the less energetic amongst us is a Race Night on Friday 8^th October to be held at Grappenhall Ex Servicemen's Club, Grappenhall tickets £6 including a Hot Pot supper. If you can support either event please do as we want them to bring another team medal back for England. For further information please ring Helen on 01925 635486.

Please note there will be no access to Grey Mist mere which will be closed from 8pm Wednesday until 5pm Thursday 16^th while some important work is undertaken, members will need to use alternative venues just for the day.

WAA have been contacted by Manchester Ship Canal Company this week with a request to pass on to anglers in the area the following information regarding people fishing from Woolston Deposit Grounds and Guard Weir.

They point out that the fishing rights there belong to MSCC and fishing is not allowed from their bank and that they have the right to prosecute anyone found trespassing on their land and will be forced to do so if the problem continues.

Can all minnows, juniors and inters make sure that you get your forms back to us this week so we can complete the arrangements for the special match and presentation on 9^th October. Please return them to Cheshire Angling or HQ.

Please continue sending in your catch reports and Catch of the Month entries 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
