22nd February - WL7 - Lloyds Meadow
Well no weather warnings to speak of this week a few gusts here and there nothing spectacular however we were rewarded with a heartening display from a new member Mike Richardson.
He recently failed miserably on his first guest outing to be welcomed as a member with "if you always fished like that you can have discounted membership matey", he then managed to catch 52lb on his first proper match and this week he had a starring role........no not fishing, he was last with 9lb odd but he managed to fall off his box backwards as his seatbox legs collapsed to howls of laughter and requests for "can we have a replay"......with no replay forthcoming and a bit of huffing Mike did the honourable thing and managed to smash his no4 section about an hour later like a gunshot to be greeted with "whip crack away, whip crack away, whip crack awaaaaay!"........to round off the day tipping four silvers onto the scales to top up a couple of carp he dumped 3 out of 4 on the grass "have you done this before", " did you face the lake" " did you try using bait".....Mike the guys clearly love you as these are real terms of endearment reserved for the truely memorable feats performed on club duty!
Any way onto the match, a slow affair with few carp showing bar by the top island and Barry (BIIOGOR) Davis snared seven and some silvers from the top right hand corner to weigh 27.8lb. Colin Cook stuck with pellet on the right of the first island but the carp were few and far between but he did enough with 23.9lb of roach, chub, skimmers and 2 small carp. Jason Connah started slowly and finished slowly (sorry thats him rigging up and tackling down) He had a few early munters from open water in between he two island and added a few smaller samples before progressing to skimmer bashing until it all dried up on pellet and he struggled thereafter but managed 3rd with 23.6lb and took the shiny £1 off Mr Brew......I understand its 9 v 4 to Mr B at the moment.

8th February - WL6 - Conway
Well Conway was its usual wild self again this week with strong winds and driving rain from the off so we tried to peg most in the bowl in the slightly better pegs from a weather perspective. For those on the sides it was 5m pole max and in reality it was a tip job for the 3 on the bottom bank it was okay to fish 10m.
Ian Simpson wasted nearly 3 hours convinced the carp and F1's would show, having drawn the top end we could at least present a bait at 10-11m although feeding was a little hit and miss. Given the carp had been only a peg away the last few weeks patience gave way to reality and two hours roaching short saw some quality redfins and 15.8lb for joint first place. Rick's 15.8lb was hard fought having sat in torrential rain and wind on the feeder and stuck it out for a few carp backed up with skimmers and roach on maggot to tie for first place......after some debate about weight in rocks as well as fish it was agreed the revised weight was indeed enough to tie with Ian S.
Billy Gore draw the top end and had a similar het to Ian S, tried too long for carp and finished a roach or two short of the top spot fishing maggopt having given up on the carp! Dougie Walsh sat on the carp hole of late inbetween Ian and Billy but managed just one and a few roach for just 8lb after two weeks on the bounce the peg threw up 45lb+ weights.......unlucky Doug!

25th January - WL5 - Lloyds Meadow - Kingfisher
A result dominated by two facing pegs who both had carp from the top island, Colin fishing pellet and bread on the pole and Mike chucking a feeder and double corn to record the best weights of the year on Lloyds.
Best of the rest was Ian Simpson with a 26.3lb silvers net including just two carp but plenty of chub and better stamp roach on maggot fishing pole to the first island.
The most impressive part of the day was the almightly squall that hit for five minutes and I mean hit, wild winds, thunder, lightening, hailstones threating to break poles that stung your hands and face and saw people packing poles away, bait tubs full of ice and a total whiteout in seconds that left us waiting several minutes after it ended for the hail to float away and melt before you could present a float. Steve Brew suffered 3 smashed top kits as his rodholdall started rolling along in the wind and crushed three kits.
Result
1st - Colin Cook - 68.9lb
2nd - Mike Richardson - 52.0lb
3rd - Ian Simpson - 26.3lb

11th Jan - WL4 - Conway
Conway was cold and relatively still for this weeks winter league encounter which made a pleasant change from the windswept armeggedon we had last time. In a tale of two halfs and two ends it was those on the right hand bank basking in sunlight and taking layers off whilst laughing at those on the left hand bank sat in the shade and shivering.
The top half nearest the car park was hard going with very few carp opening there mouths and even the roach being hard to line up as the recent cold rainwater had upped the levels and dropped any colour out of the lake. 14lb won the section this end, yet down in the bowl in the middle of the bottom bank it was carp city for Steve Brew (pictured right on a previous flyer...no change there) who hair rigged jpz's to cruise to an easy win with 49lb of carp on the straight lead from Billy Gore who had two lumps on the pole from the bottom left hand corner and around 8lb of silvers for a respectable 26lb. Barry (bin-it-in / only-got-one-rig) Davis did his thing and binned it in next to the point and then sat on his one rig and had a few late carp including a lump foulhooked for 22.2lb and third place.
Conway yet to show its best form but I have to say it appears all fisheries at present are struggling with the weather and rainfall volumes that are affecting any sort of consistency. Could be worse it was me who had 14lb and won the tough section of doom!!
Could be even worse it could have been solid in all our pegs with ice in any normal January. As it was only Steve and Bin-it-Ins pegs were sold (black they were!)
I think this is actually Billy Gore preparing the same peg he came second from today but about 4 years ago in January!!
