BOLDINGS REPORT  27/9/11.

 

          The new Preston Innovations Boldings Winter League for teams of five got under way on Sunday, with eleven teams taking part. The complex fished well on the day and it took 100lbs to make the top four, with the individual winner, Richard Lawson taking top weight of the week, fishing pellet at 4metres for a lot of carp in the 1lb to 3lb range, topped up with carp to 8lbs on corn, fished in the side.

Result.

1st Rich Lawson (Oakengates Angling Centre Gold) 141-3-0 from Larch 15
2nd Dave Brown (Maver Midlands) 132-2-0, carp to 7lbs on shallow fished caster and maggot, Larch peg 16.
3rd Dave Craggs (Maver Total Angling Blue) 105-0-0 from Larch peg 1.
4th John Francis (Barneys Army) 100-11-0, from Ash 5.
5th Andy Kyte (Maver Midlands) 99-11-0 from Chestnut 28.
6th Dave Emlyn (Oakengates Angling Centre Gold) 89-5-0 from Beech 18.
7th Dave Barnard (Barneys Army) 88-0-0 from Larch 22.
8th Pete Ricketts (Boldings Bodgers) 83-9-0  from Ash 14.

         Top six teams on day
1st (Maver Midlands) 14 points. 2nd (Total Angling Blue) 17 points
3rd (Oakengates Angling Centre Gold) 20 points. 4th (Barneys Army) 21 points
5th (Boldings Bodgers) 22 points. 6th (Oakengates Angling Centre Black) 25 points.

          With the top eight weights from the league and from the regular Sunday open counting towards the Preston individual monthly league, Dave Craggs second place was crucial, as it took him to 18 points scored in September, which put him one ahead of a tie for second place between John Francis and Andy Bayliss-Kyte, who both finished on 17.

 

 

          First winner of the week at Boldings this week was Eric Bancroft (Rod & Gun) who claimed the spoils on the Monday Affordable open on the Willows Pool. he was on peg 5 and had carp to 7lbs on pellet, fished at 8 metres and close in to total 80-10-0.

          Colin Wozak (Telford) was on the point on peg 7 where carp to 6lbs on pellet came to 65-6-0 to give him second. Kevin Melville (Maver Total Angling) was on the opposite side of the pool on 16 and weighed in 47-6-0 for 3^rd with Carl Foster (Preston Innov Boldings) 4^th on 41-5-0 at peg 8.

 

          On the Beech on Wednesday Pete Ricketts (New Willenhall) won for the second week on the trot when he put 88-9-0 on the scales at point peg 7. His catch came to paste at 5 metres and down the side. Mark Foster (PI Bold) had carp and bream on shallow pellet and from the corner at peg 20 for 84-10-0. gary Morris (PI Bold) kept things close with 82-9-0 for third at peg 23 and Howard Williams (Weston Pools) finished off the frame with 60-4-0 at peg 32.

 

          Weights were very similar on the Sycamore Pool on Thursday when 88-0-0 from peg 48 handed victory to Ed Turner (PI Bold). Ed fished corn and pellet to each side of the peg and at 5 metres to pick off carp to 9lbs and bream to 3lbs.

          Eric Bancroft added a second to his Monday win, finishing one fish behind the winner with 84-5-0 at peg 25, where pellet and paste accounted for the catch.

          Pete Ricketts also framed for the second time, taking third with 78-13-0 at peg 31, and was closely followed by Dave Barnard (R&G) on 77-4-0 at peg 13.

 

          John Francis (R&G) had top open weight of the week on Saturday by putting pellet at 5metres and corn in the margins to work at peg 11 on the Beech. Appropriately for a heavy goods driver, John included the big carp affectionately known as “Wide Load” in his catch, which otherwise consisted of carp from 1lb to 8lbs. Wide Load took the scales to 25-1-0, which boosted Johns total to 137-15-0.

          Pete Plant (Maver) was also on the Beech and had 87-12-0 on shallow caster from peg 20 for second. Over on the Sycamore Tony Foster (PI Bold) recorded a level 86-0-0 at peg 36 for third, with Andy Price (Oakengates Ang Cent ) exactly a pound behind him on 85-0-0 at peg 50.

         

          Sport was slower on the Willows on Sunday and last weeks top scorer Dave Jones (Weston Pools) was able to add another win to his list when he scaled 51-15-0 at peg 9. Shallow pellet put carp to 6lbs in the net for dave. Ed Turner added a second place to his mid week win by recording 49-3-0 at peg 18, Chris Hyde (Wolverhampton) had 45-10-0 fro third at peg 13 and at peg 2 John Newton (Wolverhampton) completed the week with 33-10-0.

Boldings report

 

 

BOLDINGS REPORT  6/9/11.

 

          At Boldings Pools on Monday Dave Jones (Weston Pools) started the weeks match programme with the top weight of the week, and despite being battered by gale force winds, the top four all beat the 100lbs mark.

          Dave was Hawthorn 11 and presented corn and pellet close in to carp up to the 9lbs ,mark, which at the finish, gave a total of 138-2-0.

          Also on peg 11, but on the Beech Pool, was runner up Phil Shaw (Lower Hill) who had a lot of fish in the 2lbs to 5lbs bracket on shallow pellet, for 117-13-0. Josh Humphries (ABC) had 111-5-0 from the Hawthorn for third and Carl Foster (Preston Innov Boldings) had 104-15-0, also from the Hawthorn, for 4^th.

 

          Pete Ricketts (New Willenhall) stepped up from second last Wednesday to first this week after drawing peg 1 on the end of the dam wall on the Oak Pool. Paste, fished against the dam put carp to 6lbs in the net for a level 72-0-0.

          In the opposite corner, at peg 31, Carl Foster made the frame again, picking up second this time with a pellet fed 59-11-0 of carp to 5lbs. Bob Tromans (Fiery Holes) and Mick Jameson (Mid Leisure) had a peg to peg battle at pegs 11 and 13 to see who would finish third, with Tromans just edging it by 49-9-0 to 48-6-0.

 

          Phil Shaw added a Thursday first to his Monday second, winning from Ash peg 3. Shallow pellet was the approach again for Phil and it put another 100lb catch on the scales for him with carp to 6lbs giving 104-1-0.

          Richard Duke (BAS) was top man on the Chestnut with a level 94-0-0 of carp and bream, which he took on pellet shallow and corn close in at peg 32. Dave Jones added a third to his earlier win, and was only 6ozs off second when he scaled 93-10-0 at Ash 3. That left Dave Barnard (Rod & Gun) to fill out the frame with his 90-15-0 for 4^th at Chestnut 26.

 

          Having finished second last Saturday Lee Atwell (Kingswinford) put his name on the winners purse this week when he led the rest home from peg 20 on the Sycamore. Pellet and corn at 6 metres and down the edge attracted carp to 9lbs for final figures of 95-11-0.

          Shallow caster, as usual, was the ploy of runner up Pete Plant (Maver) at peg 32, where the fish ran smaller than at the winners pegs, with samples to 5lbs giving a total of 75-12-0. Jeff Pearson (PI Bold) and Jason Elwell (Pro Star Wednesbury) exchanged places on last weeks showing when Jeff scaled 74-1-0 for third at peg 22 and Jason had 71-9-0 at peg 16.

 

          The week finished at Boldings, as it started, with an all ton top four. This time it was led by John Francis (Rod & Gun) who turned Sycamore 22 into a winner by fishing pellet at 3 metres and in the margins. Carp to 9lbs and bream to 3lbs moved in on the bait and at the whistle John had 131-10-0 in the bag.

          Sycamore 20 also featured for the second day running, giving Dave Craggs (Maver) a close second place. He fished caster to each side of the peg for carp to 8lbs and barbel to 2lbs and a final tally of 127-15-0.

          Eric Bancroft (R&G) topped the Willows card to finish third overall, scaling 104-4-0 at peg 11 and a Chestnut best of 102-10-0 saw Chris Holmes (Middle Severn Angling) into 4^th.

          That 4^th by Chris Holmes sees him move into a three point lead in the Preston Innovations league for September, with one match remaining. He now has 16 points, Andy Bayliss-Kyte is second on 13, while John Francis and Dave Craggs both now have 12

BOLDINGS REPORT  6/9/11.

 

          Eric Bancroft (Rod & Gun) completed a mid-week double at Boldings Pools with wins on Monday and Thursday this week. On Monday he was the only one to top the 100lbs mark on the Beech Pool when he attacked peg 20 with pellet at 8 metres and maggot in the margins to build a 102-7-0 winner with carp to 8lbs.

          Dave Matson (R&G) used meat and pellet close in at peg 23 to net carp to 6lbs for 67-12-0 to finish second, Danny Boden (Oakengates Ang Cent) had 61-14-0 for third at peg 11 and Josh Humphries (ABC) was just behind Danny on 60-11-0 at peg 26.

 

          On the Oak on Wednesday Gary Morris (Preston Innov Boldings) continued his run of results by taking top spot. He was on peg 24 and fished at 8 metres and close in using pellet on both lines for 81-13-0 of carp to 6lbs.

          Pete Ricketts (New Willenhall) was just round from the point at peg 30 and offered paste shallow and close in to find carp to 9lbs, but not enough of them to catch the winner and finished on 74-1-0.

          Two Glynwed men took third and fourth, with Tony Armitage scaling 42-14-0 and Mick Faulkener 40-7-0.

 

          Eric Bancroft collected his second winners purse on after he drew Sycamore 34 on Thursday and employed similar tactics which won on Monday. This time carp to 7lbs and barbel to 2lbs came to the net to add up to 74-15-0.

          Following Eric this time was Tony Foster (PI Bold) with a pellet based 49-9-0 at peg 40. Tony had carp to 5lbs and bream to 3lbs at 8 metres and close in. Tony Armitage was third again, having netted 45-13-0 at peg 37, with Howard Williams (Weston Pools) 4^th on 41-0-0 at peg 13.

 

          John Francis (R&G) took charge on Saturday with the best weight of the week so far, 119-10-0. Fishing corn to the paddles and in the margins at Hawthorn peg 1, ‘Franner’ picked off carp to 8lbs on his way to victory.

          At Hawthorn 3 Lee Atwell (Kingswinford) went for pellet and paste combination to net 87-11-0 for second, and brother Jason Atwell had an Ash Pool top score of 54-2-0 for third, just pipping Jeff Pearson (Wrens Nest) on 53-14-0 opposite him.

 

          Sean Barber (Maver Sonubaits) grabbed the top weight of the week spot by winning on Sunday from Chestnut peg 23. Fishing to the island and into the corner, with pellet produced carp to 9lbs and bream to 3lbs which gave a total of 126-4-0 and maximum Preston league points.

          Martin Harrell (Maver) was opposite the point at Chestnut 15 and alternated shallow pellet with close in corn for 95-14-0 of carp to 7lbs for second. Third also came from the Chestnut when Andy Bayliss-Kyte (Maver Sonu) scaled 95-9-0 at peg 21. It was another Maver rod who took 4^th when Pete Plant topped the Sycamore list with 89-4-0.

          Only two points scorers from last week finished in the Preston points this Sunday, which puts them in first and second places in the table for September.

          Chris Holmes finished 6^th this week to add 3 points to his maximum 8 of last week, with Andy Bayliss-Kyte adding 6 to his 4 of last week. Sean Barber is third in the list with his 8 points taken this week.
