1st January 2012 Warrington Anglers Association Guardian Notes

1^st January 2013 Warrington Anglers Association Guardian Notes.

On Friday in a joint exercise at Winsford Angler's Ocean Pool with both theirs and Lymm AC netting team members we obtained a further 118 mirror carp to around the twelve pounds mark which we released into Appleton Reservoir. This brings the total introduced to 261 not forgetting the existing albeit small original resident stock. We are currently awaiting a batch of roach and bream. These introductions have certainly stirred up the original residents not unlike what happened at our Mount Fishery when otherwise unknown specimen fish suddenly decided to feed. At the reservoir as reported last week there have been roach out to 2.5lbs and some quality perch.

The Mystery Pairs Match on Saturday saw Ros Wightman and his partner Lenny Dutton win the event with 6 points followed by Phil Cross and Martin Lenihan on 7 points. Bob Clough took the individual money with 6-9-0 with Graham Stokes in second place with 6-2-0.

Despite some anglers really struggling in a New Years Day match held in Lymm Village Ross Wightman wasn't complaining with his winning catch of 19-6-1 made up of skimmers and roach nor was Adam Harman who included a bream of 4.5lbs in his runner-up net of 12-5-8. Bob Clough was in the money again with 11-0-0.

The Disabled & Over 650's match fished at Keckwick Bridge was a one bite spectacular which resulted in a chub of 4-6-0 for winner Barry Holbrook. Galling for second placed Barry Chambers with his 2-3-4 net of small fish but that's fishing.

Don't forget that night permits expired on the 31^stDecember 2012 and bookings will not be taken on 2012 issue permit numbers.
