Dan weighed in 45-8 to take 1st place in the frame, it was a difficult match due to the amount of rainfall in the 48 hours prior to the match. He finished ahead of Simon who put 26-0 into his net for second place. Third place went to Guy, who weighed in with 19-4. Many thanks to everyone who attended despite the atrocious weather.

Guy weighed in 89-8 to take 1st place in the frame, it was a difficult match due to the number of fish that were lost – the size of fish always impresses at Quarry Pool, there are some big monsters in there. He finished ahead of Simon who put 83-8 into his nets for a close second place, probably only one fish behind. And Mel weighed in with 68-2 to claim third place from peg 5, 4, 3 and 2 😮 😆 eh Rob.
We weighed in a total of 466lb at this match.
Don’t forget to set your clocks back 1 hour for the next match which is at Broseley, Lodge Lane on October 27.
Can someone donate a 3rd prize for the match as there won’t be any pay out’s. We’ve got a 1st and 2nd prize can you let me know who is going to donate as I don’t want to have loads of bottles to take home 😉
Entry peg fees will be £15 for the match and I would like everyone to have a couple of goes on the football card at £2 a team £30 for the winner – or if someone wants to donate bottle of something for the prize it would mean more money to go to the club funds thanks.

Guy managed to land most of the fish he hooked at Willowmarsh on Sunday. He weighed in 54-0 to take 1st place in the frame. He finished ahead of Billy and Simon who both put 36-8 onto the scales, to claim joint second place.
There were many stories of loads of lost BIG fish causing frustration among those that were catching. Bites were few and far between for most of the club members which made things worse, waiting long periods for bites, before being smashed – whether you were fishing feeder, pellet waggler or pole short in the margins, or just in front of you. If they had all been netted it could have been a different match, and I’m sure the biggest fish of the year would have featured at this venue.
Guy opened up the lead at the top of the leader board over Terry who is now 14 points behind. We weighed in a total of 306lb at this match.

A mixed bag of weather and fishing fortunes on Sunday at Haye Farm. Despite the sudden downpours, Terry started catching from the inside margin on big pellet. Barry started off well opposite Terry, but couldn’t sustain the pressure on him. Meanwhile further down the pool Rob was having a nightmare with lost fish and tree snags. But he persevered to beat Mel into third place.
In addition we all wish Mickey a speedy recovery.
Guy remains on top of the leader board followed by Terry who is still chasing and waiting for more slip ups. We weighed in a total of 242lb at this match.

I couldn’t belive my eyes when I arrived at my peg, as soon as I stepped onto the wooden platform to setup the number of carp that spooked into the bay was like a tidal wave. Permanent peg 66 is a bit of a kamikaze peg, an end peg more suited to a left handed angler. So I setup a pellet feeder and 3 rigs for my margin pole, when the whistle sounded the all-in the carp were still visible in front of me, so I started on the pellet feeder. The first five chucks, I landed five carp putting approximately 25-0 into the net.

Cob house fishery hosted our annual outing this year. After a really good breakfast in the Mayfly cafe which set us up for the day fishing on the Chestnut Pool.
We used the permanent pegs for the match, which had been selected by the fishery bailiff. With a supply of fishery feed pellets, we made our way to our pegs after picking up fishery supplied keep nets and landing nets.
The pool aerator was running throughout the match, due to the high temperature – 34 degrees poolside which could be classed as normal if you’re on holiday abroad but not when you’re match fishing in England.
The pool has a very good stamp of carp of all varieties as well as bream and tench. I know Billy got off the a great start taking two carp with his first two chucks on the pole. But I think it was Mickey that landed the first fish of the match which was a bream, and he went on to catch 44lb of bream at the weigh in. The fishing got better as the match progressed, with some very big carp being caught on pole and feeder tactics.
