28th July, 2015 Warrington Anglers Association Guardian Notes.
Joe Pimblett was the new winner our Junior Woodshaw Reservoir match on Monday with a weight of 9-2-0 of crucians and roach fishing the pole and alternating between maggot and pellet. In second place was Dylan Anglesey with 7-2-0.
Jimmy Byrne was back in first place this week after languishing in the runner-up position last week in our Monday Disabled & Over 60's match with a weight of 13-13-0. It was fished on the Mersey for a change of venue and he included bream, roach, and perch in his winning net of fish. Now second place was a welcome surprise to see my old friend Stan Deakin brush the cobwebs off his rods and show that he still knows a thing or two about river angling. Stan had no bonus fish but still managed a nice net of small fish for 5-13-10.
Regular Mersey devotee Jimmy Gannon clocked up his first win of the season in our Saturday Series this week with a cracking weight of 19-06-0. He fished the tip using maggot and worm to catch four bream with a brace weighing in at 5 and 6lbs, plus small roach and perch. Runner-up Derek Bibby fished the pole to take a good net of roach, perch and dace for 9-6-0.
Our Mersey Series on Sunday produced a first win on the river this season for Neil Buist with another good weight of 15-9-0 made up of three bream, best 6-4-0 plus roach and perch to leger and maggot tactics. Rod Frazer better known for his River Weaver match wins came in second with 13-8-0 with a similar species mix.
Members should be on the lookout for fires on the banks of our river fisheries as they are a dead giveaway for signs of poachers. Don't forget theft of fishing rights is an offence for which both Police and the Environment Agency will act and prosecute offenders.
Finally I really do need more members catch details for publication in both this column and my blog to share with both existing and potential members. It only takes a brief email and may save someone a wasted trip or give them a red letter day.
Please email me your catch reports to frank@warrington-anglers.org.uk or you can ring me on 01928 716238. Our headquarters at 52, Parker Street are open on Friday between 7 & 9pm for subscriptions, new memberships/night permits, and any queries.
