Boldings report

Boldings Report 29/7/09.

 

          On Saturday at Boldings Chris Bradney (Mosella Black Country) finished over 100lbs ahead of the Field when point peg 13 on the Sycamore produced some spectacular sport. Fishing corn and pellet to both sides of the point, Chris couldn’t go wrong, with carp after carp to 9lbs forming a procession to his net, to give final figures of 186-5-0.

          Over at peg 33 fellow Mosella rod Dan Amphlett was also catching well, but with Chris almost directly in line of vision, he knew that he had no chance of keeping up. Dan offered pellet up in the water alternated with paste close in to net carp and bream, to finish on 82-0-0.

          Lee Atwell (Kingswinford) was one fish behind Dan with 78-14-0 at peg 22 and Andy Bayliss-Kyte (Maver Sonu) was one behind him on 74-3-0 at peg 5.

 

          The rain of last week-end put a dampener on sport for the Monday match on the Oak and it was a relatively modest 53-13-0 which claimed victory for Dave Barnard (Rod & Gun). He was on peg 21at the back of the island, and took carp to 5lbs on pellet at 0  metres.

          Up at the other end of the pool Martyn Travis (MS Total Angling) fished pellet into the corner, and up in the water for 47-2-0 to nick second, just ahead of last weeks Sunday winner Gary Morris (OB Wolves) on 46-5-0 at peg 32. Colin Reynolds had the first of two frame places by taking 4^th peg 1, where he weighed in 43-10-0.

 

          The Middle, Hawthorn and Stock pools were in use on Wednesday, with the Middle proving best on the day and giving Ralph Johnson (Bilston Ang Cent) ton up top catch of 114-9-0. Using pellet at 5 metres Ralph had a busy day building his weight with carp from 1lb to 3lbs.

          Runner up Steve Roberts (R&G) was also on the Middle and combined pellet and corn to net carp to 6lbs on his way to 84-7-0. Carl Foster (OBW) was top man on the Hawthorn, taking third overall with 83-2-0, and Alf Taylor (OBW) was 4^th from the same pool with 77-3-0. Best on the Stock was 67-1-0 by 5^th placed Tony Foster (OBW).

 

          Colin Reynolds moved up to first on Thursday when the top two pegs from Saturday featured again, this time in reverse order, with Sycamore 33 giving Colin his win, and peg 13 producing the runner up for Jack Hailey (OBW).

          Colin fished corn and pellet at 5 metres, and in the margins to each side of his peg, to pick off carp to 9lbs, which added up to 110-14-0. Jack had his fish, carp to 7lbs and bream to 3lbs from each side of the point, on pellet, and weighed 98-6-0.

          Kevin Melville (Dorset Pools) was a close third on 94-9-0 at Sycamore 42, and 86-4-0 from Chestnut 30 gave John Wild Stafford) 4^th.

         

          Sean Barber (Maver Sonu) won the Nick Gretton Memorial match on Sunday, and this time it was the Chestnut Pool which gave the top catch.

          Sean was on peg 13 and switched between fishing shallow with pellet in open water and close in with corn, which saw him end the day on 103-3-0, which included carp to 6lbs.

          On the same bank of the Chestnut, at peg19, Kye Faulkener (Telford) used similar tactics for a catch of carp to 7lbs and bream to 2lbs which put him on 78-8-0 and into second place.

          Andy Bayliss-Kyte (MS) headed the Sycamore card form peg 48, where he scaled 73-6-0, and Richard Lawson (Maver Midlands) took 4^th form Sycamore 50 with 70-0-0.

          Thanks go to John and Sue Gretton for extra prizes of wines and spirits, and also to Alistair Turner and Steve Swift for spirits.

Boldings report

Boldings Report 22/7/09.

 

          Boldings played host to five opens again this week, with Saturday giving the top result, and a close finish featuring two 100lb plus catches.

          Andy Bayliss-Kyte (Maver Sonu) got the verdict over Graham Roberts (OB Wolves) but there was only one fish in it. Andy fished up in the water with pellet on the Chestnut Pool, taking carp to 7lbs at 10 metres, to finish on 126-14-0 at peg 32.

          Graham used corn and pellet, fished to the paddles, and in the side at peg 1 on the Hawthorn, for carp to 8lbs, but that one fish short left him on 121-3-0. Third placed Neil Mansfield (Wem) wasn’t far behind the top two on 113-11-0 at peg 11 on the hawthorn, and back on the Chestnut, Steve Forest (OB Wolves) had 98-10-0 at peg 30 for 4^th.

 

          On Monday Colin Wozak (Telford) put some daylight between himself and the rest of the field when he scaled 91-14-0. Pegged on corner peg 1 on the Acorn, Colin fished to the far side, and into the corner with pellet and corn, picking off carp to 7lbs on his ay to victory.

          Peg 7 on the Acorn saw Gary Morris (OBW) take carp to 6lbs on pellet and corn, fished close in, for 74-14-0. On the opposite end of the Acorn from the winner, Carl Foster (OBW) had 70-15-0 in third and Harry Colley (OBW) finished 4^th with a Willows best of 61-9-0.

 

          The Ash Pool gave a clear win to Tony Foster (OBW) on Wednesday, when he pulled out a lot of small carp between 1lb and 3lbs, which added up to 97-0-0. Tony was on peg 20, and used pellet to take his fish from up in the water.

          Brian Clarke (Maver Midlands) was best man on the Beech, netting carp to 7lbs, caught on corn and pellet close in for 66-15-0 at peg 5, to finish second overall. The two remaining framers came from the Ash, with Mick Jameson (Mid Leisure) scaling 62-6-0 at peg 12 for third and Richard Lawson (Maver) 60-5-0 at peg 16 for 4^th.

 

          Steve Forest (OBW) had the first of two frame places on Thursday when he edged out Keith Miller (New Willenhall). Both caught on corn and pellet, and both had carp to 7lbs, each but not from the same pool.

          Steve, who was 4^th on the Saturday match, took his winning catch on the Chestnut where caught close in from each side of peg 23, for a level 95-0-0.

          Keith was on peg 33 on the Sycamore, and he too caught close in from either side of the peg, and finished only 6 ounces behind the winner on 94-10-0.

          Back on the Chestnut John Wild (Stafford) scaled 79-6-0 at peg 14 for third, then it was back to point peg 13 on the Sycamore for 4^th, when Andy Williams (Vespe) put 76-0-0 on the scales.

 

          The Chestnut and Sycamore were in use again on Sunday and it was the Chestnut which gave the winning weight again, this time for Mondays runner up Gary Morris. He was in the corner at peg 1 and had to deal with carp to 10lbs on his way to 95-8-0. Corn and pellet did the trick again, with fish coming from the 5 metre line, and close in.

          Tim Probert (OBW) used the same approach at peg 16 on the Chestnut, and had carp to 8lbs for a final tally of 86-6-0. Close behind Tim, with a Sycamore top weight of 85-5-0 was Ted Ecclestone (Stafford) on peg 13. Fourth placed Dave Emlyn (Oakengates Ang Cent) was also on the Sycamore, and had 77-11-0 at peg 30.

Boldings report

Boldings Report 14/7/09.

For the first time in four weeks Colin Reynolds was not in the frame on the Monday open at Boldings and Carl Foster (OB Wolves) took on the winners mantle with a ton up catch from the Ash Poll.. Three pegs in a row gave the top three weights, with Carl using shallow pellet tactics at peg 16 to tempt carp to 7lbs to lead the way with 104-14-0.

To Carl’s left, Dave Craggs (OBW) also employed the shallow pellet method at peg 18 to net carp to 5lbs, finishing on 91-8-0 to take second.

Dave Barnard (Rod & Gun) finished second last Monday, this time he was third with 73-8-0, from peg 14, to the right of the winner. Fourth came from the other side of the Ash when Harry Colley (OBW) scaled 66-8-0 at peg 5.

Willows pegs filled the top three places on Thursday, with peg 16 providing Richard Lawson (Maver Midlands) with a winner. Shallow pellet was the winning tactic again, helping Richard to a total of 82-7-0, which featured carp to 7lbs.

Over at peg 8 Mel Kitson (R&G) used pellet and corn for his runner up 70-10-0, which was just enough to beat John Wild (Stafford) on 70-4-0 at peg 5 on the same bank.

Dave Barnard framed for the second time, putting a Chestnut best of 68-13-0 on the scales at peg 30 to finish 4^th overall.

Hawthorn pegs filled the frame on Saturday and OB Wolves rods were in the top three places. Tim Probert led the way from peg 9, where pellet and paste, fished at 9 metres and close in picked off carp to 8lbs to give Tim a return of 92-9-0.

On the opposite bank, at the ever reliable peg 3 Phil Rhodes had a level 78-0-0 on corn and pellet for second and almost opposite him, at peg 13, graham Roberts collected third thanks to 75-13-0. Bob Tromans (Fiery Holes) was on peg 1 by the paddles where 69-0-0 gave him 4^th.

The Sunday frame was a tight one, with 2lbs covering the top three, which all came from different pools. Frame topper Ed Turner (OBW) was on Sycamore 46 where he fished corn and pellet in the side to find carp to 8lbs on his way to 94-4-0.

Gary Morris (OBW) alternated between close in and the 5 metre line with pellet at peg 4 on the Chestnut to net 93-9-0, and over on Oak Pool Gareth Emlyn netted 92-3-0 for third. That left Dave Matson (R&G) on 85-2-0 to complete the week.

Boldings are staging the Nick Gretton Stillwater Memorial open on Sunday 26^th July, draw at 1.45pm. Book with the fishery on 01746 763255.
