14th May 2013 Warrington Anglers Association Guardian Notes.
Mandi Paul who has only just returned to angling after a two year layoff following a serious illness had a cracking starting session at Grey Mist Mere that ended up with her landing a superb specimen tench and a PB of 7-6-0. She fished a maggot feeder with imitation maggot on the hook. Sadly her partner Mark Aitchison did not fare as well. Steve and Paul Briddon along with their friend Malcolm Wilson shared an eleven tench catch with. What made it even more special was that Malcolm had never previously caught a tench over 6lbs but finished with three over that weight and five in total. All fell to maggot feeder and red maggots. Dan Millington reports a catch eleven tench on Thursday morning with the best weighing 5-15-0. He was using a maggot feeder and some left over maggots and when they were running low he mixed in casters to extend his session.
New member Andy Beddeson was absolutely thrilled with the work that had been carried out by our volunteers at Fosters Lodges in Wigan, so a big pat on the back for them. He was likewise made up with his first WAA session which started off with rudd to 6ozs, roach 8ozs, and a chub of 1.5lbs that gave some serious stretch to his light elastic. Pole-fished maggot accounted for around 15lbs of fish and as he said he had "a great day."
I have had a late report of a 28lbs common carp caught by Joe Walters from Rixton Claypits that was taken on a spicy peanut boilie. Tench and bream are also feeding well and the water is definitely worth a visit.
A sleeping bag has been found at Grey Mist Mere if the owner contacts me I will put them in touch with the member who has retained it for safe keeping.
Anyone who is saving Sainsburys Active Kids vouchers for our juniors would you please either take them into Cheshire Angling or drop them through our HQ letterbox at 52 Parker Street as they finish next week and we must exchange them for equipment soon after.
Don't forget if you have a night permit you can only book on between 9am and 6pm. Messages left outside these times will not be accepted. Also please note our night permit fisheries are largely on private waters and members are not allowed nocturnal visitors on these from either non-members or members who are not booked on the fishery at that time.
Your catch reports are invaluable to this column and fellow members. Either ring me on 01928 716238 or email frank@warrington-anglers.org.uk. HQ 52, Parker Street is open as usual between 7 & 9-00pm on Friday, for subscriptions, new memberships/night permits, or any queries.
