Fish Legal has launched the #EveryRiverCounts campaign. They are asking for everyone who cares about healthy rivers in the UK to support their nationally important legal case against the UK Government & the Environment Agency. What began as a local fight by Pickering Fishery Association anglers to bring fish back to the polluted waters of the Costa Beck, has now become a national test case to ensure no river is left behind in the fight against pollution.
Help us back Fish Legal in its legal fight in the Court of Appeal. Join the appeal, donate, then sign up: everyrivercountsappeal.fishlegal.net/ #AnglersAgainstPollution
Today’s Over 55s match was held at a very wet Abbrook ponds. The rain came down all day.
First on the day from peg 6 was myself. 6 fish weighing 9lb 4oz were enough to take first place. All caught on pole fished dead red maggots over a little ground bait. Included in my catch was a roach of 1lb 6oz.
Second from peg 3 was Alan Crouch, with 5lb 15oz of silvers. Alan fished a small ground bait feeder to catch a mix of silver fish, maggot hookbait.
Third from favoured peg 1, the 4th time this year he has drawn there, was Mark Branson. Mark had a mixed bag of silvers for 4lb 9oz.
The torrential rain that fell all day definitely affected catches.
The next match will be on Oct 30th at Fennick.
