The latest Over 55s match was held today at Fennick ponds. 11 anglers taking part, on a mild but wet day.
First from favoured peg 1 on the top pond was Phil Tweed. Phil used pole and feeder tactics for a winning catch of 21lbs. 9 carp and a few silvers proved enough.
Second from peg 3, Alan Crouch had 11lb 4 ozs. Again carp on feeder tactics gave Alan second place.
The bottom pond was won from peg 10, by Tony Potter. Tony weighed a mixed catch of silvers, 8lb 4ozs to continue his run of good results. Pole tactics were successful.
Second from peg 8, a peg he knows well, Tim Hunt had 6lb 4ozs, again pole caught silvers.
The next match will be on 26th Nov, the venue being Sampford Peverell. Book in as usual please.
Our recent Pike Tuition Days were a tremendous success! Thank you to all who attended — we hope you enjoyed the sessions and left feeling more confident handling these incredible fish. A special thank-you to the dedicated volunteers who made it all possible.
