BOLDINGS REPORT
The weeks programme at Boldings began with an Oak Tree open on Monday with Keith Miller (New Willenhall) improving on his Wednesday runner up of last week, to score a narrow win. He was on peg 1 and fished to the dam wall on his left and into the corner on his right, using pellet to net 91-12-0 of carp to 7lbs.
Last Mondays winner Phil Shaw (Lower Hill) was close behind with a shallow pellet catch of carp for 89-15-0 at peg 5.
At point peg 29 Graham Evason (Preston Innov Boldings) picked up third with 80-9-0 and at peg 24 Colin Reynolds (Bilston Ang Cent) had a level 66-0-0 in 4th.
Phil Shaw moved back up to top spot on Wednesday using shallow pellet again, this time at Beech peg 11. A steady supply of carp to 4lbs added up to 102-10-0 at the whistle.
Three weights from the Hawthorn filled the remaining places, led by 89-4-0 by Carl Foster (PI Boldings) who fished corn and pellet at 4 metres and close in for carp to 7lbs at peg 13.
Matt Stobbs (Oakengates Ang Cent) left with third prize after weighing 76-1-0 leaving Bob Tromans (Fiery Holes) to round off the day with 70-6-0 for 4th.
Thursday produced the best frame with the top five all beating the 100lbs mark. Best of the bunch was Eric Bancroft (Rod & Gun) who put together 129-6-0 at peg 36 on the Sycamore where carp to 9lbs and bream to 3lbs sought out Erics maggot and pellet feed, fished close in.
Dave Matson (R&G) followed up his successes of last week with a second on this match. He was on Sycamore peg 8 and had carp and barbel on pellet to each side of the peg to weigh 118-7-0.
