12th June 2012 Warrington Anglers Association Guardian Notes.
Due to internet problems I missed the deadline for my last week's column/blog for the first time in a good number of years, anyway this week its business as usual.
The Mount is proving to be 'something to all men' and currently producing exceptional silver fish catches. John Wilsons last few sessions saw him catching roach to 1.5lbs on the pellet waggler whilst Andy Paddock has been getting amongst the rudd using similar tactics with fish around the pound mark. Best carp reported this week was one of the original old warriors, a common of 20- 8-0 by Darren Bunce. Neil Plunkett fresh back from his hols headed straight for the Mount for some intensive angling therapy and caught his best mirror carp so far this year at 14lbs along with tench to 5lbs and several roach around a pound.
Mark Howard has been tench hunting again at Grey Mist Mere on Wednesday when he had five of the olive green beauties with the biggest going to just over 7lbs making it the second fish of this size in the past couple of weeks. There is not too much carp action at the moment but I had a report that an eel of 5lbs being caught early this week.
Mark Carter made the trip to High Legh Fisheries and hit it just right and enjoyed a red letter day with over 100lbs of carp, roach, and a few tench. On the downside he ended up shifting other so called angler's rubbish. Take it from me it is absolute zero tolerance of litter louts we just do not want you as members and neither does any other angling club.
Mike Simpson tried his luck on the small lake at Sandiway and ended up with his best tench of the year at just over 7lbs and lost a large carp at the net. The rumour mill is rife with tales of quite a number of really decent carp from the big lake but as usual by the time or if ever I get sight of any photos it will be yesterday's news.
On the match scene it is a case of mixed fortunes but the first match of our popular Woodshaw Reservoir Series gave the best result by far. These keen youngsters got their heads down and winner Mike Rudd put an impressive mixed net of 13-6-0 on the scales for a comfortable win over second placed James Brown on 8-12-0. The series is run on a points basis by our local bailiff team.
Well done to Warrington Anglers Ladies team who won the bronze medal in the Angling Trust National Ladies Championship last weekend. Local tackle shop owner Helen Dagnall won individual silver and her team Starlets won gold.
