31st May 2022 Warrington Anglers Association Guardian Notes

 

We find ourselves back on Grey Mist again this week this time it was David Tomkinson`s turn to fill his boots. Fishing the pellet feeder using his home made 8mm boilies and mixed pellets he could hardly keep a rod in the water has 17 Tench graced his landing net, 4 weighing over 8lbs. He also reports losing 5 more along with 3 carp, well done that man. 

Steven Worral also chose The Mist in search of the carp, He spodded 3 different crushed, chopped and whole boilies to a clear patch next to some Lillie pads and fished Barrel wafters on a noodle rig, well his rig must have been on the right spot has he finished his session with 3 mirror carp of 19lbs 14oz, 21lbs 7oz and 24lbs and 24lbs 10oz. 

Stephen Magee took time out this past week to have a go at some lure fishing on the Bridgewater Canal, He reports catching a few perch but his session was rewarded with a small jack Pike of approximately 5lbs. 

Stephen Spann had a couple of hours to kill this week and where better than next to a lake and his lake of choice was Phoenix Park. He finished his short session with 3 chunky Roach to 7ozs and a Perch weighing approximately 10ozs all caught on maggots.

Results: 

Disabled & Over 60's Bridgewater canal 

This week's match held at Pickering`s Bridge saw Ron Durr draw noted Bream peg near the willows (but you still have to catch them), well he didn`t disappoint when he emptied a 5lb Bream, roach & Perch onto the scales to take top spot comfortably. The rest of the anglers found it a struggle with only another 4 breaking the 1lb mark, one of these being match organiser Jimmy Byrnes who was 2nd with 20 Roach and 4 Perch from Edwards yard. Most competitors scratched around for bites using bread & Pinkies has the Roach were reluctant to feed, more fish is the prediction this Thursday when there will be a match on Woodshaw. 

1)  Ron Durr 6-13-0     

2)  Jimmy Byrnes 1-10-0    

3)  Alan Clarke 1-5-2 

4)  Neil Buist 1-2-7
