7th September 2010 Warrington Anglers Association Guardian

The Dee again grabs the news as confirmed reports have reached me of another 11lbs barbel caught from one of our stretches. Simon Loyley of Tackle Locker had his first barbel experience ensnaring two of the creatures from our Almere Fishery where I understand lots of small fish around a pound are also showing. Roach and dace sport is also exceptional. Nick Donald took a fresh run salmon of 14lbs after five frustratingly threw the hook, several almost at the net.

A member asked me yesterday about rumours he had heard of  new fish for Grey Mist Mere to replace some of the ancient stock that are now sadly suffering age casualties. It would appear the rumour machinery is at full tilt so to set the record straight it's no secret that we have fish on order for the end of the year. They are the same strain as last year however any introduction is always subject to S30 permission being granted nearer the time.

Our Sunday Mersey Series saw Lennie Dutton put a mixed net of 12-0-0 on the scales to pip Ray Bowden by just 3ounces for a win. Ros Wrightman was third with 8-6-0.  Versatile or some say lucky Lennie followed this the next day at our weekly Disabled & Over 60's canal match at Hilltop by taking top honours with a roach and skimmer net of 5-1-7 taken on pole alternating caster and maggot. Third placed Billy Pickles showed his mastery of the rod by catching his 4-1-0 on waggler and pinkie.

Our website is now fully functional after its recent difficulties including the member's forum. The re-vamped site should make alterations/improvements much easier in the future.

This week we have banned a member for leaving litter after he showed complete disregard for our rules.  Litter is something that all decent anglers hate with a vengeance and we all have a collective responsibility to help stamp it out.

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
