6th November 2012 Warrington Anglers Guardian Notes

6th November 2012 Warrington Anglers Association Guardian Notes.

Worthington Lakes are producing some good bream catches Michael Veall had twenty nine last week between 2 and 4lbs. This week probably due to the influx of cold water into Arley he had some decent roach whilst his mate John Heaton had a few bream with the best weighed at 3-2-0. Our local bailiff team also report that Woodshaw reservoir is still worth a visit with fish still responding but I must warn you the wind there is absolutely freezing so wrap up warm and then put on an extra layer for good measure.

Sport at Grey Mist Mere is poor at present, however member Ian Robinson had three on his first visit with the best at 17lbs. whilst another angler had two including a mirror of 18lbs the rest I am afraid suffered the indignity of a blank. A few small jack-pike coming out to lures.

Our Warrington Local Winter League last Saturday on the Macclesfield Canal produced some decent weights. Steve Preece took the individual crown with 7-14-4 on mainly roach closely followed by Steve Clegg on 7-1-8 who included a few skimmers in his net. Quite a few decent perch on most sections helped to make up weights. Cheshire Gold took the team honours and is now leading the league on 35points followed by Saints on 30 but it is early days with seven matches to go.

Pete Critchley romped home in our Disabled and Over 60's match on the Bridgewater Canal at Stanny Lunt Bridge with 6-9-4 of bream, skimmers, and a few small perch seeing him over 3lbs spare over runner-up Trev Bainbridge on 3-9-0. The rest of the field struggled along with match organiser John Dagnall who did not even make 2oz. Still the banter and camaraderie on these matches makes it all worthwhile, or so I am told.

Please note that due to a combination of illness and holidays our office will remain closed on Friday evening 9th November, 2012.
