27th February, 2018 Warrington Anglers Association Guardian Notes
Warrington Anglers Association has had a stand at the Northern Angling Show since its inception and this years event was without doubt the busiest ever. It is always nice to meet both new and existing members, chat about our sport, and swap fishy tales, great stuff. Many thanks to our 'display' team and especially to Paul and Andrew who served delicious chicken, bacon, and cheese hot rolls each day for our lunch.
Norman Gannon who next week will celebrate his eightieth birthday shared first place at this weeks Mersey Series event with match organiser Ray Boden when they both weighed 0-9-8. They fished feeder tactics and Norman caught a brace of skimmers whereas Ray had six small roach.
Another disastrous result for our Disabled & Over 60's matchmen when George Barber aka 'The Breadman' needed only 0-4-2 on Monday for the win with a catch made up of a few tiny roach taken on punch bread. Another octogenarian, Stan Charnock who I am told is aged 82years and as keen as ever was in second place with 0-1-8. It was only the pair of anglers at either end who had fish to weigh-in!
Come on guys with those catch reports, good, bad, or unusual they are always more than welcome, please send to frank@warrington-anglers.org.uk or give me a ring on 01928 716238.
WAA Headquarters at 52, Parker Street are open as usual every Friday between 7 & 9pm for 2018 night permits/membership renewals, new members, subscriptions, and any queries.
