19th November 2013 Warrington Anglers Association Guardian Notes

19th November 2013 Warrington Anglers Association Guardian Notes.

I had the phone call I have been waiting for from Viv Sheers on Monday of this week to say that due to the possibility of a freeze-up he is bringing our fish order on Friday 22nd November. This is our ongoing annual carp stocking program that will start at Sandiway Lakes at approximately 9am. Members are more than welcome if they would like to see the quality fish supplied by VS Fisheries released into their new homes at this venue, Moore Quarry, and Grey Mist Mere. If anyone would like to really get down and dirty and help then bring a pair of chest waders. The fish will be a mixture of three year classes, C4's, 5's, and 6's all with known certificated lineage.

Saturday saw the third leg of our Pairs event held on our stretch of the Macclesfield Canal at Congleton. The canal fished well taking into account the colder weather and individual winner Neil Davies made good use of his end peg advantage alternating between bread punch and worm  for a weight of 7-6-6 which was made up of a 2lbs plus perch and roach. Runner- up Kev Green with 5-1-11 was drawn in the same section and also had a bonus perch and roach. Kev Green and Adam Harman snatched the pairs lead with an overall 17 points total.

Derek Bibby was the top rod at our Mersey Series this week with 5-9-7 catch of roach and perch taken on a groundbait feeder and red maggot from peg 74. Martin Lennihan was a very close second with a similar net of fish for 5-6-7 alternating between pole and the feeder. Last weeks winner Ant Higham went for the treble and glory by targeting as usual the rivers large bream but it was a no show and he bombed out in a fast flowing river. A second reminder that our annual Mersey Fur & Feather Match is to be held on 8th December (strictly members only) book in with Cheshire Angling to ensure your place.

The colder weather caused the weights to drop on our Monday Disabled & Over 60's match held on the Bridgewater Canal at Red Lane. Ron Durr put together an all roach catch taken on the pole and punch for 3-1-10 and Geoff Brooks was runner-up with 2-13-2.   

As the weather goes colder I would really appreciate any catch reports. These are invaluable to this column and fellow members planning fishing trips. 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.
