This proved a dour affair for most of the youngsters. The league leaders- Michael and Finley - struggled to get either the feeder or long pole to work properly and caught only odd fish.
One angler, however , sorted out how to catch a few. Leo Hackman (peg 7) fished cubes of meat at 7 metres to put together a run of big bream for a net of 16lb 8 oz. had it not been so windy he would have caught more! Haydon(peg 11) was best of the rest with 6lb 10 off peg 11.
This leaves the summer league nicely poised for the last match. Michael and Finley are tied on 7 points with Leo on 8 and Haydon on 9! Too close to call and all down to the last match!

The annual junior carp catch at Broadwater Lake proved to be a soggy but productive event. The evening started with the draw and pizza for all the competitors but the steady rain was not forecasted to stop till the small hours.
The match kicked off at 7 and pretty quickly James Webb peg 5 was into a carp. As the night and the rain wore on fish came out regularly with Cameron Eadie on peg 10 catching the most consistently.
The rain finally eased about 3 am but the fishing slowed too and come dawn only two anglers were still catching- Cameron and Callum Hattley on peg 13.
When the whistle blew at 7 am the final fish counts were tallied up.
In third place was James Webb with 15 carp and a biggest of 18lb 4.
In second was Callum Hatley - also with 15 fish but a biggest of 18lb 13oz.
The clear winner was Cameron Eadie with an impressive 20 carp
The biggest fish of the night was caught by Leighton Knight and tipped the scales at19lb 3oz.
Thanks to Rob Hackman for keeping the scores through the rain, the Broadwater bailiffs for helping organise the event and Gardner Tackle for their generous sponsorship oof this event.

This match promised to be a close run event for the Hackman family. Last year's champions - dad Rob and son Leo- were up against previous Broadwater Charity Carp Catch winner Mark Adams who was teamed with Leo's brother Zak.
4 other teams of hopefuls lined the bank on a cool but dry Saturday morning. Most teams opted for a discrete approach fishing with small tea bags and pellet or small boillie hook baits. Mark and Zak opted for a more aggressive feeding strategy and promptly created an artificial reef or pellets and boilies some 20 yerds out.
Unfortunately the carp were not particularly impressed by either approach. Rob and Leo grabbed an early carp- weighing in at 15lb 15. The others remained biteless. However at 12 o'clock the weather started to warm a bit and Sam on peg 3 missed a run whilst Leo and Rob were both into a fish. One more fish fell to Leo but there was no more action for the others.
Bait kings Mark and Zak reported a single carp "veeing" over their bait at 1,55. That fish would have got them second had it been able to distinguish their hookbait from the 6,475 other boillies that were decorating the lake bed.
Congratulations to Rob and Leo - 2 years on the trot they have proved to be the Kings of Broadwater this year with an emphatic 4 fish victory!
- 1st place: Leo And Rob Hackman []

Leo and rob Hackman on Peg 10 edged in front with three fish but Michael and David on peg 13 caught them up.
Then Leo and Rob would catch a coupe more, Michael and David pull one back in what proved a tense battle. At the end Leo and rob caught 8 carp - biggest 15lb9 - and Michael and David came second with 6 fish - biggest 14lb 9. After the early start the Rugby Bank went quiet with single fish being scored- the biggest weighing in at 15lb 3 for Callum and Richard.

Junior Christmas matches can be cold and wet affairs. But not this year! a cold but bright day greeted the competitors and helpers and the sunshine added some welcome warmth.
The bright conditions meant fishing would be tricky but Michael Ewing on peg 14 got some early signs on caster and eventually started catching some small roach. On the opposite bank Leo Hackman had a bite on a piece of worm but no fish were being caught. It looked as if Michael was going to have it all his way, netting a string of small roach. Then Leo got a second bite on double maggot on a light leger rig. This time the fish stayed hooked and the bend in his rod promised a decent fish.
There followed a pretty tense fight where the big fish powered off on several runs but Leo played the fish well and was able to put his net under a spanking 5lb 1 oz carp. This proved too much for Michael's small roach net which tipped the scales at 2lb 4 oz for second.
Congratulations to Leo for holding his nerve playing that big fish and winning his first ever match!
Junior match fishing kicks off again on the 23rd of April with the senior/junior pairs match at Broadwater.

There were only 13 fishing but weights were quite good, especially for Steve Moore's last match of the year, as he heads off "down-under" until next year. Steve, true to form, drew prime peg 13 and fished caster and dead magg for a range of skimmers, bream and tench which went over 46lb narrowly beating Gee Barbeto on peg53 by just 15ozs. Gee caught long with maggot over groundbait to keep his good run at the venue going.

Even with high pressure dominating, there were still better opportunities for those in and around the 'dog-leg'. Favoured peg 13 was drawn by 'draw-bag' Squirrel but was upstaged by an avid 'Chelsea' supporter Brian Wallace, who like Gareth doesn't seem to draw badly these days! Brian caught first on the pellet method before fishing to the pads and down the margin on peg 17 for 36lb 15ozs of caster bream and tench, just usurping Gareth by 4ozs! Third place was up-an-coming rod Alan Adams on peg 19 who weighed in nearly 30lb. Sections: pegs 1-13 Dave Steer 27-1-0 p7, pegs 15-31 Ian McClaren 24-6-8 p29, pegs 33-44 Kev Parker 27-1-0 p44.

The lake's fishing reasonably well with peg 11 coming out top again. This time G Barbetto drew 'sock on' and hammered out over 62lb of bream on pellet, then tench down the margins, for the win. 'Old timer' Terry Harrison found peg 15 was also on song as he amassed over 55lb of mainly bream to chopped worm. Young Tommy Clark is rapidly becoming something of a venue expert, despite the fact that he always seems to think it's not a good peg he's been given! Having had peg 31 drawn for him by winner Gee, he thought he'd be in a poor area, until he weighed in 46lb to take third. So much for his opinion!!! 14 fished.

Another cracking draw by Ian Dixon gave Dave Johnson a right peach when he pulled him peg 11. Dave made no mistake and fished both 10 and 6m lines with worm and pellet respectively for 45lb of bream, skimmers and crucians. Dan Cooper paid a visit and persevered to take over 35lb, mostly tench, from peg 7, most of which came in the last hour down the edge to caster. Peg 1 is usually a good peg when there's a SW wind and Gee Barbetto took over 31lb to secure third place. Sections: pegs 1-15 Nobby Cooper 23-5-0 p13, pegs 17-34 Nick Stunt 27-14-0 p21, pegs 38-50 Tommy Clark 24-4-0 p46.

Just 16 turned up for this weeks event and what with the torrential downpour and strong winds the day before, fishing was challenging for many. Not so Ian Dixon who drew 13 and fished pellet short for 51lb+ of bream, skimmers and a few tench. Ian was also on form when he drew Dave Johnson peg 9, who then had 38lb+ of mainly tench with the odd bream and quite a few skimmers all to chopworm short and long. Nick Stunt continues his form with a close third with 35lb+ off peg 42. Sections: pegs 7-21 Dougie Graves 30-2-8 p7, pegs 25-42 Gordon Stevenson 22-5-8 p28.

Harris fished hard for most of the 23 competitors in round six of the Summer League. Not so Charlie Salmon who had 34.2.0 of Tench and Crucian on the pellet feeder to the island. Dave Johnson on 32 balled it at the start ending up second with19.7.0 from third placed Andy Rogers with a wagg and magg catch of 17.7.0 from peg 21.

Young Tommy Clark may be arriving late, but he seems to be getting his fair share of good pegs! With only a couple left in the bag, he was drawn peg 40 and although he didn't seem to worry about it too much when he arrived, he had to persevere, but it eventually came good with a late run of bream to give him a narrow win over nextdoor neighbour Ian Dixon on peg 42 by 15ozs! Mick Keeper also had a late run of bream down the edge on peg 7 to weigh in 37lb+ ahead of flyer peg 11, where Gareth Phillips had 36lb+ of similar. All in all it was a close match. Sections: pegs 1-13 Gareth Phillips 36-4-8 p11, pegs 31-44 Gordon Stevenson 32-14-0 p31.

Conditions were hardly ideal for this match on the hottest day of the year so we kept the match in the wooded area. Henry Golas won with a lovely bag of quality Rudd taken on a maggot feeder and maggot for 29.12.o on peg 27. Perry Fray on peg 30 had three tench and a small carp for 22.6.0 and Bill Cameron on 28 had Crucian and Tench for third with 19.0.0.

Weights not too bad and the highlight was that Steveo ended up forking out a shedload of £s for once! Brian Wallace pulled peg 11 which has been a pretty consistent peg over the past weeks and weighed nearly 46lb of bream and tench ahead of Gee Barbeto on peg 17, who improved on his section win of the previous week by taking second spot with over 40lb. Third was Charlie Salmon on peg 3 with just over 38lb. Sections: pegs 1-17 Max Calverley 29-12-0 p5, pegs 19-36 Nick Stunt 34-7-8 p34.

Twenty six fished the summer league 4 match. Roger Howe fishing peg 12 took the win with a mainly Bream catch of 54.10.0 on the hybrid feeder and pellet. Ian Coveyon peg 41 being the Scotsman he is and desperate to save his £1 side bet with Roger put up a valiant fight but fell just short with 50.5.0 of mainly Tench also on the feeder. John Wilkins on 9 put together 47.1.0 om the pole for third and Perry Gray on 11 was fourth with a 26.14.0 mixed bag. For full league updae see League tables page.

As this venue continually shows, there are a number of pegs that can produce a win and this midweek open was no exception. Drawn on peg 7, 'old' campaigner Nick Stunt pulled the rabbit out of the hat when he netted late tench from close in to weigh 51lb. Peg 34 surprised everyone, including John Radford when he took second place with over 42lb. John was a fish ahead of returning angler Graham Marshall on peg 15 who managed just over 40lb. Form area also did well with Gordon Stevenson banking 35lb+ for third place. Sections: pegs 1-15 Trevor Haskell 35-5-0 p11, pegs 17-34 Giovano (Gee) Barbetto 27-5-0 p28, pegs 36-51 Steve Moore 33-0-0 p45.

This was our 1st trip to Bury St Austin lakes with Carsholton which also saw a change in the weather from hot and sunney to damp and early rain. Carp dominated the weights and Carshalton organiser Martin Charnock won the day with 80.8.0 from Steve Moore who caught edge fish for 62.3.0. Third was Colin Underwood on 48.12.0 and fourth Carsholtons Lionel Herve with 39.12.0. The team event based on the top five from each club was GAS 198.6.0 and Carsholton 183.2.0.

Weights were not particularly high but it was a relatively close match with just about anyone capable of taking top spot. Peg 9 has been the form peg for a few weeks now and the drawbag king (Gareth Phillips) secured it, but it wasn't the runaway result expected. Lots of small fish were coming out across the venue with larger fish taking a back seat until late. Gareth managed a mixture for the win of 37lb+ with joint organiser Dougie Graves taking some late bream to dead maggot from peg 15 for 32lb+. Third place saw John Radford on peg 42 snatch it by 5ozs from local expert Steve Moore on peg 46.
Sections: pegs 1-15 Mick Keeper 31-0-0 p11, pegs 17-33 Dave Johnson 27-7-0 p17, pegs 35-48 Steve Moore 31-4-0 p46.

This inter club match was fished over two sections, Salgasson and Lower Common. Despite a mix up with a canoe race lower common was the place to be with Henry Golas on peg 29 on the "whithies" taking the win with pole caught Roach and Dace for 10.9.0. Next door on end peg 30 Chris Kampa shared second with Richard McGuinn on peg 27, both ending on 8.8.0. Frankie Bevan on peg 21 by the canoe club was a close fourth with 8.0.0.

It seems some people don't need the full 5.5 hours of fishing times these days! Missing at least the first 45 minutes of the match through late arrival, Eddie Green made no mistake from peg 10 with a masterful display of tip fishing with banded caster! A top entry of 27 where left in Eddie's wake as he amassed over 61lb of mainly bream, but did manage the odd late tench from down the edge. Well behind, but on a roll at the moment, was Chris Opie on peg 7 with tench and bream for 39lb. Third was another late arrival, young Tommy Clark, who followed up his Monday night win with another successful foray at the venue, from another decent peg. Tommy drew end peg 19 and fished long and in the margin for mainly tench and skimmers. Looks like a future venue expert in the making if he keeps this up! Steve Moore continues to rack up the results with 28lb+ from peg 33.

It was a good day for a change, but the previous days had seen plenty of rain so weights where down a bit. Even so it was a close match with many in with a shout. But yet again we saw Andy Rogers give a masterclass in wagg and magg on peg with 39lb 12ozs, but he had to share the win with Brian Wallace on peg 1! Long time absentee Phil Worrell joined us and promptly drew prime peg 9 and weighed in 36lb+ for a close second/third!

In form Andy Rogers took the field apart again from peg 38 taking 56.0.0 of tench bream and crucian on the waggler and maggot.

It was another easy win for the waggler-meister Andy Rogers, who pulled consistent peg 15 out. Going to get a third net part way thru the match looked ominous, and so it proved as he weighed in nearly 64lb of tench, bream and skimmers, well ahead off 2nd place Paul Etherington on peg 25 with 37lb 15ozs. Frankie Bevan and Buster where close by with 37lb 5ozs off peg 9. Weights around the lake were reasonable, considering the amount of rain that fell over the week (and was still falling throughout the match!!!). Sections: pegs 1-15 Eddie Rippon 30-11-0 p11, pegs 17-35 Chris Opie 33-7-0 p33, pegs 38-52 Brian Wallace 26-6-8 p48.

The lake once again was fishing really poorly with most of the reduced turnout of 14 struggling for bites. Dave Hoffman on island peg 17 won with a carp and three tench for 19.8.0. Frank Bevan on peg 21 opposite had a tench and a few of bream for 14 8.0 and second whilst thirdwent to Richard McGuinn on peg24 with 6.7.0 a single tench.

A low turnout didn't stop the fish from having a good munch. Even with just 13 present between pegs 1 to 35 nearly everyone had double figures, but it was the two pegs which seemed to have to most room which did the best...just! Taking the last peg in the bag, which just happened to be peg 1, joiner organiser Dougal Graves turned in 49lb of bream and tench for a narrow win. Next peg along was waggler meister Andy Rogers who turned in 47lb of similar to wagg and mag. Close by was Dave 'Chopper' Johnson on peg 33 with 46lb of mainly tench, with the odd bream to pole and guess what!

Twenty Eight fished the first round of the summer league on a hot sunny day hardly conducive to daytime fishing as many found. Not so Frankie Bevan on peg 46 who pole fished pellets t take the win with 61.15.0 of Tench and Rudd. Charlie Salmon on peg 40 was second using the pellet feeder for 44.5.0 and Dave (Chopper) Johnson on peg 5 third with long pole and worm taking 38.0.0.

Twenty one turned out for what seems to be coming a 'Squirrel' benevolent match, as yet again Gareth's draw arm didn't let him down with a plum draw of 33 from which he made no mistakes. Pole and caster over GB was the norm for Gareth as he weighed in over 33lb of tench, bream and skimmers in a low weight match. Next best was Brian Wallace on peg 1 who had a similar net for 27lb 15ozs, just clear of Mick Keeper on peg 9 with 26lb 11ozs.

25 fished this latest match although the lake was totally switched off for most. No so for Richard McGuinn on pwg 22 and Max Calverley on peg 20 both end pegs at the hallow end. There was just 8oz between the weighing 33.8.0 and 33.0.0 with Richards last gasp Tench on the whistle making the difference. Twyfords Vince Davies took thirdwith 3 tench for 11.10.0 on peg 26 and Andy Love on peg 6 4th with the lone Bream caught and a few Percot 7.0.0.

A bit of a mixed bag on this match but things looking to spread out more productively as the weather improves. Near the Johnson's bank proved the place to be with the first two coming from it. With plenty of room Steve Sanders was not overly happy with his draw, but peg 28 proved him wrong with nearly 42lb of bream, tench and skimmers to bomb and pole with maggot and caster. Close behind was Gordon Stevenson on peg 19 with 38lb of similar fish to short pole and caster. Never far away, especially with his 'drawbag' skills was Gareth Phillips on peg 13, who fished his usual caster over gb on long pole then added some better fish from down the edge for 37lb.

An improved turnout of 21 saw bright conditions with fish starting to spawn, which undoubtedly affected overall weights. Yet again we saw Gareth ‘Squirrel’ Phillips take a commanding win with 49lb 8ozs of quality bream and tench from peg 44, while all around could only sit and marvel! Next best was Dave Johnson, on what has been a pretty good draw of late. Dave fished 16m for tench and bream to chop worm for 30lb 13ozs. Gareth’s travelling buddy, Ryan Coates was close behind with a similar caught 29lb 10ozs off peg 19.

Seventeen fished this match affected by willow fluff on the surface in many pegs until late on. Charlie Salmon on peg 15 won using wagg and mag tactics taking quality Roach and Rudd for 22.10.0. Martin Charnock on peg 1 in the far corner was secn from a badly fluffed up swim using a whip and maggot and caster for 21.8.0. Third went to Andy Rogers on peg 16 with 19.0.0 and fourth was Dave Johnson on 14 with15.8.0. Sections were 1-8 Max Calverley (8) 13.10.0 and Dave Hoffman (9) 14.0.0.

It looked like it would have been better for the 14 who turned out, if not for the deluge that descended prior to the start, but there where still a few decent weights. Making his first trip of the year a winning one, Steve Sanders drew peg 9 and fished bomb and pole for 43lb of bream and tench ahead of a close fought battle for second place between John Clark on peg 31 and Gordon Stevenson on peg 44.

This match saw a more even distribution of weights around the lake but it was peg 1 which really stole the show and the draw king himself, Gareth Phillips, made no mistake from it with over 78lb of tench and bream on caster over gb at 16m+. Not known for a poor 'dip', Gareth even caught down the edge late on to seal his second victory in as many matches! Next best was Eddie Rippen who weighed in over 43lb from peg 15 on wagg and magg. Close behind was John Clark on peg 40 who took 41lb to the scales for a creditable third. Another draw-meister was Max Calverley on peg 3 who managed 31lb.

(Draw: 10:00am, Start: 12:00pm, Finish: 5:00pm)
With another good turnout of 28 this match saw some better weights coming from all over, but still there were fish shoaling up, probably due to spawning preparations! It was noticeable that the top weights were all wagg and magg caught with Gareth ‘Squirrel’ Phillips taking an impressive 53lb from peg 15. Gareth had a selection of bream, tench and crucians for the best weight that the venues turned up to date. Catching from the off, Max Calverley, had the distinction of taking ‘wagg& magg’ maestro Andy Rogers scalp off the next peg, not an easy thing to do! Max had 47lb to Andy’s 44lb, but Andy had to drop another place to an ‘old hand’, Eddie Rippon, who netted 46lb. It proved a tight one for the places and proved the best match this season. As the weather evens out, it’s expected to get even better. Sections: pegs 1-16 Tommy Hiller 42-14-8 p1, p18-34 Charlie Salmon 26-14-0 p25, p35-52 Frank Bevan p46.

With warm conditions assured, the venue saw an increased turnout of 30, with some new faces in attendance. Unfortunately the fish didn’t respond as expected, perhaps the bright conditions had something to do with it? Young gun Ethan Etherington found peg 19 ready to oblige, but he had to fish past 17m to get the fish! Using caster and dead maggot over groundbait, Ethan had spells which produced 35lb 12ozs of bream, tench and a solitary carp for a fine win, which made up for some previous poorer results. Wag and magg maestro Andy Rogers is on a good run at present and used the method to great affect to run Ethan close with 34lb 8ozs from peg 48. Third place went to worm-meister Dave Johnson on peg 13 with 28lb of bream, tench and an interesting hybrid of around 1.5lb!

It proved to be an funny ol' day with none of the usual flyers producing, except one! It was a case of right angler on the right peg on the right day, and that honour fell to waggler wizard Andy Rogers who drew peg 11. Andy started on the bomb but quickly change to his favoured method when he found he could feed near the island. A steady stream of maggot pinned down a shoal of bream and Andy weighed in 47lb of them, over double the next weight for an easy win.

Another tight finish saw just half an ounce separate the top 2. Top weight of 26lb 3ozs 8dr went to Tony Medlicott on peg 29 with a mix of tench, bream and odd crucian. With the tightest of margins behind Tony was Mick Hall, who hasn’t been for sometime, on peg 15 with 26lb 3oz of similar fish to pole.

Cold nights did nothing to bolster the weights but, even so, everyone of the 17 anglers caught and the top 4 finished within a good fish of each other! What was more encouraging was the fact that some of the smaller skimmers put in an appearance and fish in general seemed to be distributed more around the lake, roll on warmer nights! To say the top 3 finish was tight would be an understatement with just 4ozs separating them, a rare occurrence here! Peg 9 came good for Tony (The Ghost...we hadn't seen him for sometime!) Medlicott who had the majority of his catch bream, a couple of crucians and the odd tench on maggot and pole for 27lb 10zs, 3ozs clear of Rob Poster on peg 44 who had mainly tench close in on maggot...just 1ozs ahead of Jim Findlay on peg 46.

Draw is always important on any match and last years top junior Ben Gregoriades showed his skill once more at pulling the ‘rabbit out of the hat’ with an end peg at the top of the swimming pool bank (peg 4). But it was Dan Norris on peg 12 who had the first fish, a decent size common of 11lb 1oz. Not to be denied, Ben then proceeded to take a further 5 fish for a total of 51lb 10oz, topped by an even bigger common of 11lb 14oz and an easy win. Dan did add to that first fish with another two to register a 29lb 8oz for second place. Our young female star, Jessica Carter, usually goes for the masses of silvers present in the lake and had a stellar day weighing in a superb net of roach, rudd and perch for 15lb 10ozs for third place.

With rain forecast for later in the day, the 7 pairs kicked off in reasonable weather, but as usual the weatherman got it wrong again and rain started to fall halfway into the match. With a disappointing draw, Team Etherington started well, much to their surprise and kept going to remain ahead of the field until the final whistle. Paul showed that he’s kept the good form from his recent Wednesday open successes with a super catch of tench to the bomb and maggot for 31lb 8ozs with son Ethan adding the best junior weight of 18lb 5ozs of bream and tench for a joint 49lb 13oz win. Nearest rivals were the consistent team of Dave & Michael Ewing. Dave weighed in 27lb 8ozs which included a carp of around 8lb while Michael managed 9lb 8ozs of bream and tench for a respectable second place with 37lb. Third place went to one of the new additions, Dan and Harrison Winfield. But it was Harrison who showed his dad how to catch with a commendable 15lb 15oz of tench and bream to his dads 9lb 2oz.

The lake looked perfect at the start, but quickly changed as the breeze began to push surface scum across the junior pegs. With no bonus fish putting in an appearance, it was those who opted for the smaller species that triumphed. From the off, it was Freddie Bacon who set the lead, but as he slowed up later, Jessica Carter started to catch up and it proved a close thing at the end. Freddie concentrated on the pole and maggot and took a steady stream of silver bream and roach for 6lb 10ozs for a narrow win. Jessica tried for a bonus fish but when they where not forthcoming she went onto the pole with maggot or worm and started to peg back Freddie to finish just behind with 6lb 6ozs.

Favoured draws where in the middle of the bank and continuing their previous good fortunes of last year were Team Gregoriades, Marcus and Ben who drew pegs 12 & 13. While few caught, those that did saw only the odd fish, but Marcus and Ben managed three which was good enough on the day. It was Marcus who showed his team the way with two good fish, a 15lb 8oz mirror and a 10lb 2oz common while Ben chipped in with a lovely conditioned 12lb 3oz common. Their total weight proved good enough for the win.
Behind where the Carters, Dave and Jessica, who took a fish each for a total weight of 21lb 15oz from pegs 20/21. Best catch of the day was undoubtedly from George Evans, who netted a stunning 17lb 12oz common from peg 15. This was George PB, beating his previous by 12ozs!

What a rotten day for the 4 who braved freezing temperatures and snow flurries! Their reward was to catch and not blank, plus they all earned points on this first 2018 Sensas Points League.

Oh dear the Christmas match this season fell foul of the rapidly fluctuating weather. With ice on the lake after much discussion we decided to stay and break the ice rather that decamp to the river. 25 Started at 11am and Charlie Salmon on peg 9 had a Bream first chuck weighing 2.7.0, Perry Gray on peg 5 had a small Roach and that proved to be the end of the catching.

It wasn’t the best match of the year for the 12 who braved the cold, but they where all rewarded with hot chocolate and a great xmas party afterwards, whether they caught or not. Hill Pond was not seen at its best for our young brigade with only 4 catching, and then not very much. Victory went to James Buckley with the massive weight of 4ozs, narrowly beating his next door neighbour Ben Barnet. James had 3 small fish to Ben’s 2 small fish… just a difference of 1oz! Other catchers included George Evans and Harry Franklin who both tied with half and ounce!

With the weather starting to turn towards a more wintery feel, seven juniors spread around Hill Pond on what proved to be quite a showery day. Bites came slowly at the start but picked up as the match progressed with Ethan Etherington, on peg 11, leading the way with some small skimmers and roach, but found that they tailed off into the mid-match after a major, but brief downpour. During the rest of the match, Ethan’s catch rate slowed up while Ben Barnett, on peg 13, was picking up the odd bigger fish! There was an interesting tussle below them with Ben Gregoriades and Jessica Carter both catching well. At the end both Ethen and Ben Barnett tied on 4lb 7ozs for the joint win, while Jessica finished ahead of Ben Gregoriades by just 1oz!

No long walks on this latest match on the Thames at Charvil with Twyford. Following the draw we all drove down to a river side car park. Sadly the after effects of Storm Brian affected the fishing with the prolific Roach shoals not feeding and only Perch showing. Perry Gray on peg 23 next to the car park fished a top 5 and a three gram float at 8-10 mtrs with worm on the hook and feeding chop worm via a bait dropper, perfect tactics on the day netting him 8.15,0 and the win despite the early gale force winds. Andy Rogers and Twyfords Pete Lewis tied for second with 2.4.0 each all small Perch and Henry Golas took fourth with 2.2.0.

With the venue being switched from Richardson’s Lake to Hill Pond, to help with the island clearances, it proved a fortunate move in light of the pending ‘Brian’ storm warnings. With their backs to the wind, the six competitors got on with the task in hand under difficult circumstances. After a slow start, things picked up with roach and the odd crucian coming to those who took a softly softly approach. The two Ben’s were doing quite well but where being outshone by Jessica Carter, who ended the match with 6lb 14ozs, which consisted of 4 lovely crucians and a few roach. The win earned her maximum points in the league and a £20 gift voucher. Well done Jess! Not too far behind was Ben Gregoriades who, like Jess, including a very nice crucian in his mainly roach catch of 4lb, despite having his hat blown off into the lake! Ben number 2 (Barnett), had a similar catch, but that only went to 3lb 6ozs.

The final round of the "Fours" really shook up the final placings with two top teams blowing out completely on a dour unresponsive Richardson lake that left most competitors scratching their heads wondering where all the fish were hiding. Top team on the day were Swampsiders who tied on 12pts with Matchangler.com but had a far superior weight thanks to Curtis Salmons 29lb from peg 7. Third place went to the Muppets on 14pts then a three way tie on 18pts between in order of weight Misfits, Baggers and Gemini. League leaders Chertsey Bait crashed on this one with 3 blanks but just pipped Trevs Tornadoes who fizzled out to a light breeze with 27pts.

This was not a bad match with everyone catching and weighing in. With seven fishing, the pegs ran from 1 to 11. Dan Norris on peg 1 looked to be stealing the lead part way thru, but Ben Gregoriades kept a regular supply of chopworm going in and gradually drew some good fish onto his 11m line to finish just ahead of Dan with 24lb 14oz.
Dan was not far behind and included a superb 2lb 14oz crucian in his 21lb 9oz catch, which were all taken on the feeder. Third place was Tom Stratford-Tuke, who took a selection of small fish and 3 good bream for 13lb 14oz on the pole and maggot. Jessica Carter came next with two good tench and some nice roach and silver bream for 11lb.

Six pairs entered this last Kids & Dads match of 2017, fished on the Rugby bank. It was a slow start for some but not the masters of the end peg draw! Marcus and Ben Gregoriades carried on from their successful 1st round in the Preston Junior League with another win from the top end of the Rugby bank. Having lost the first two fish within minutes of the off, it was Ben who banked the first fish, an 8lb plus common, which signaled the start of a runaway win. With Marcus and Ben each trading fish, it was dad Marcus who eventually won the numbers and weight game with 8 fish for 88lb 14ozs. Ben was just one fish behind, but his were smaller, the best only hitting 10lb. His total of 63lb 1oz, added to dads’ 88lb14ozs, gave them a clear win 151lb 15ozs.
Their closest rivals were the Hackman’s who managed a combined weight of 48lb 8ozs. Tye Hackman did have the satisfaction of taking the biggest fish prize, a lovely common of 17lb 6ozs. Third placed pair were the Casbon’s with 40lb 4ozs, courtesy of dad Ian, who banked 4 fish to 10lb 15ozs! Fourth place went to the Carter’s, with Jessica taking the silverfish prize but also adding a super 14lb 14oz mirror from down the edge on waggler and maggot.

Thirteen fished the first river match of the season on a hot bright sunny day hardly conducive to good fishing but Henry Golas confounded us all with a record breaking weight of 43.13.0. Henry drawn in the first field below Broadford Bridge balled it with three "jaffas" of groundbait and mole hill soil with a few pinkies and after a couple of hours a Bream shoal moved in. Henry caught seven Bream with two over 6lb and 7lb of roach and dace in his winning catch using pole with maggot or pinkie on the hook. (Personally in all my years as match sec I cannot remember a better river match weight since the days of the big Eashing catches). Second place went to Bryce Kearney on peg 14 near the railway bridge who also had a Bream in his 7lb catch. Third was Pete Makins on end peg 16 with 5lb and Andy Rogers took fourth from the road bridge also with 5lb. For full league update see league tables page.

Fourteen bailiff turned out at an early 7am for their annual match at Busbridge but the early start did not help improve the weights. Lord Cardwell of Bramley hiked to the far end of the lake and caught Tench for a comfortable win with 17lb. Sausage Wilson of Johnsons was second with 9lb narrowly beating Dean Marshall who ended up with 9lb also, fourth was Ed Wade with 8lb. Unfortunately for once head bailiff Woods did not figure in the overalls but I hear there will be a stewards inquiry into this, possibly resulting in the winner carrying extra weight in his hiking books next season.

Harris proved, as always, to be a challenge, not only for the seniors but also the juniors. So it was interesting to see who kept concentration and rose to the challenge. An early tench saw George Evans, on peg 27, lead the field for sometime before Ben Gregoriades hooked into a couple of tench near the pads on peg 37 to hold the lead. But it was Tom Stratford-Tuke who didn't give up and kept plugging away on the 8m pole with chop worm and caster to hook a couple of tench in the last 45 minutes to take the win.

It was great to see 7 pairs turnout for this Dads & Lads contest on Richardson lake. Interest centred on who would draw the current form area around the dog-leg, as this has been favoured in many of the matches recently held. The ones fortunate to draw well where the Etherington pair, Paul and son Ethan, who pulled pegs 10 and 11. True to form, as the match progressed it was clear that Paul was starting to put together some fish on the waggler and maggot, while Ethan was struggling. Paul changed halfway through to the pole and continued to add fish after fish, eventually racking up a sizeable weight. When the scales arrived, Paul put 44lb 6ozs on them and Ethan supported with 15lb 9ozs, giving them a grand total of 59lb 15ozs and the winners trophy.

A brilliant match for the 6 who managed to attend! The 2016 U23 World Champion, Alex Clements, was once more in attendance to give our juniors some great instruction. Best of all was our England Talent Pathway representative, Ethan Etherington who, despite a slow start, steadily built up an unassailable lead with tench, some superb crucians, roach and rudd coming to maggot over groundbait. Ethan finally weighed in over 20lb to finish 7lb clear of his nearest rival, Ben Barnett.
Ben started like a train but sport tailed off for him while Ethans flourished. Ben still manage to put together a substantial 13lb+ made up of a similar catch to the winner. An encouraging performance from Daniel Casbon in his first season with us saw him net over 12lb of tench, crucians roach and rudd. This was topped by his PB crucian of 1lb 11ozs. Well done Daniel. Tye Hackman finished 4th with a creditable 10lb.

(Draw: 9:00am, Start: 10:00am, Finish: 2:00pm)
Living almost on Broadwater itself, has its advantages for the Ewing clan as they are rapidly becoming the duo to beat there! Most agreed that fish had been loitering around pegs 19/20...and guess where Team Ewing drew... correct!
Fishing just standard match tactics with a small Guru bomb and pellet, it was Ewing senior who was first to bank a fish of 7lbs, followed quickly by one of 5lbs. However, 'Ewing the Younger' would not be denied and soon after banked a superb 18lb common. From then on it was all about just how many fish they would both catch! A further 6 followed and the duo weighed in a total of 79lb 2oz. That was more than enough to seal victory.
Next best weight was Roger Ellis Newnham who took 2 fish for a combined weight of 24lb 4ozs. The rest of the Dad's 'n Lads struggled as carp where conspicuous by their absence, although a couple of decent fish did put in an appearance, one well of over 20lb, but after the whistle went!

A somewhat belated report, but nevertheless an important result for those Dad’s who now hold ‘bragging-rights’ over their respective siblings!
New kid (and Dad) on the block were Team Etherington, who smashed the air of Ewing invincibility!
Drawn in double pegs 13 & 14, they set about amassing a grand total of 44lb 3ozs, led by Etherington ‘the elder’, who weighed in 25lb, nearly 6lb ahead of his sibling Ethan. Both fished to a plan of pole and feeder with either maggot/caster or chopped worm.
Not to be outdone the Ewings would always pose a significant threat in these events, particularly as they drew flyer pegs 10 & 11, but opting to fish peg 11 together as young Michael is still ‘knee high to a grasshopper’!
Congrats to all participants and hope to see you again with many others joining in this fun event. The next event is on September 10th at Broadwater, where I’m sure some of the Dad’s (and kids) will confirm or regain their status as top dog in the team! Shortly after we have a real ‘crunch’ event with the kids taking on the dads, and their chance of regaining bragging-rights! This will be on Harris Lake on the 24th September. All Dad’s, or Mum’s, are welcome to participate.

Current points leader going into this match was Ethan Etherington with two wins out of two, but things rarely stay the same for long in angling and his near rival Daniel Wallace continued his good run with another win on from his National Junior League match last month. Daniel weighed in 15lb 13ozs consisting of two lumpy bream, a 3lb tench and a load of silver bream and roach taken on waggler and pole from peg 9. Incidently the same peg number as his win in the NJL on Richardsons Lake!
George Evans came closest to Daniel with 13lb 3ozs of bream and silver bream. Third place was the previous points leader Ethan with just 5lb 7ozs. Unfortunately Ethan didn’t include any of the lakes big bream otherwise he’d have been much closer to the top two.
Fourth place went to Joshua Skutek with 4lb 14ozs which did included one of those lumpy bream.

A miserable start to the match with unexpected rain as 9 juniors set up on Broadwater’s rugby/swimming pool bank. Six opted for an out and out carp attack while the remaining three set up wagglers and went for the smaller species with maggot.
Ben Barnett started off by netting an early specimen roach…1lb 9oz, and followed up with an assortment of rudd and roach to 8oz from peg 22. But it was young Daniel Wallace who was quietly racking up some quality roach of his own to 10oz from peg 14. He ultimately finished ahead of the field with a total weight of 9lb 15oz with Ethan Etherington in second place from peg 6, who also netted a number of quality roach for 8lb 14oz. Despite that ‘speci’ roach, Ben could only manage third with 8lb, but memories of that fish will remain with him for sometime I suspect.
It was a very hard day for the carp boys, but our silverfish juniors did manage to slightly embarrass the seniors, who had fished the lake the previous Sunday!!!
Hope to see a good turnout at Bramley on the 14th May. Don't forget to book in!

Thirteen turned up for this midweeker and pegs 1 to 29 were used. On a bright day with little wind and a clear lake, a complete contrast to the previous weeks event, saw Tony Medlicot pull peg 1 and set about taking crucians and skimmers for a winning weight of 28lb 5ozs. Pete Makins drew peg 13 which suited his waggler skills and he netted over 22lb of skimmers to maggot. Third, using identical tactics, was Jim Findlay on peg 7 with just over 19lb. Brian Ward completed the top four, again on wagg and mag from peg 27, with tench and skimmers for 16lb plus.

Again we saw high winds ruin fishing for the 4 of the 5 who ventured onto pegs 5 to 13 on Richardsons lake. But the winds didn't stop Dave Steer from drawing end peg 5 and catching 30lb 1oz. The catch consisted of 11 crucians to a pound and a half on pellet at 8 metres, plus 6 tench on the method. Apparently Dave had the benefit of someone fishing pellet on the same peg the day before and catching plenty of tench! Second was Brian Ward on the other end peg 13 who has some tench and skimmers for 10lb 10ozs. Dave Bannister completed the trio who bothered to weigh in with 8lb 3oz from peg 9.

The eighteen competitors were greeted with heavy showers and a keen west wind following heavy overnight rain that did nothing to help the fishing. Colin Sax on peg 8 used a groundbait feeder with double red maggot to take Bream and bits for 13lb and the win.

The first match of 2016 saw everyone catch, but unfortunately the skimmers and bream at Busbridge had decided to take a holiday and our 8 competitors where left fishing for scraps. There was a new addition to the junior ranks, named Ethan Etherington, who set about catching small roach up in the water on the waggler for a total weight of 1lb 3oz. Best of the rest was Daniel Wallace, who changed tactics when it became clear that there was no decent fish on offer. Dan set up a pole and caught 13ozs at 5m for second in his age group and second place overall.

Sadly only 3 turned out for this round, but we managed to get through a poor day and everyone took home some 'goodies' for their trouble. Only one junior caught, Spike Ostle, who managed to 'mug' 5 roach for a grand total of 1lb 4ozs. Spike also won an umbrella to go with his 'goodie' bag.
Next round is at Busbridge with a hopefully better turnout, weather permitting of course. We shall be allowing any pike caught to be weighed in and counted. Unfortunately no specific fishing for pike is allowed. If one snaps your small fish up, as you bring it in, and you manage to get it in, this is the only way it will count!

It was a breezy day with rain forecast, but 12 attended this special Christmas match on Hill Pond. What seemed to be promising omens when wind and rain held off, turned into a somewhat disappointing, if not quick, weigh-in, fish-wise! A 10oz roach caught on waggler and maggot by Tye Hackman, from peg 12, sealed victory in the 11-13 age group with Ben Nuckowski taking second place with a 2oz roach from peg 15.

Despite the biting NE wind, 9 juniors that turned out for the Broadwater match on the 18th April. Our new junior match organiser, Dave Johnson, managed to just fit everyone in, but couldn’t help them when it came to putting carp on the scales.
Pegged from 24 to 14, it was the lower numbers that proved the best, with Jamie Burton running away with the match from peg 15. Jamie managed 4 fish for a total of 48-9-0 and took home a donated 12’ Team Daiwa float rod.
Jamie was the only one in the 14-16 year group to catch, but the 11-13 age group saw both entrants take prizes. First was Bertie Hebdon-Heath who had to wait a longtime before he slid the net under a beautiful fish of 17-8-0 to win the group from peg 14 and take home a carp rod and reel. Tye Hackman was second from peg 18 with an 11-12-0 fish and won a reel.
The up to 10's group saw Finnley Newnham also take a late fish of 11-8-0 from peg 21 and he opted for the £20 voucher prize for his win.
All junior matches will now be separated into age groups to give the younger members more of a chance of winning a prize. It is also the aim of the new management to try and ensure every junior member benefits from fair and rewarding events, so if anyone wants to win a prize and become famous in our Junior website section, phone or text Dave on 07814 376350, to book in.

With the river in full flood and much of the lock cutting towpaths under water, we transferred to Marsh Farm Richardson Lake. After a frosty start the warm sunshine triggered algae floating up from the bottom. As on previous occasions that this has happened, the fishing was very hard and in fact only one of the thirteen competitors caught anything. The winner and only catcher was Andy Rogers with one bite producing a 2lb Tench.
