BOLDINGS REPORT
Colin Reynolds (Bilston Ang Cent) was back to his Monday winning ways this week at Boldings Pools and winning a peg to peg battle with Ian Hughes (Drennan NW) on the Willows Pool. Colin drew peg 8 and worked pellet and corn across to the far bank to pick off carp to 6lbs together with barbel to 2lbs, which added up to 105-2-0 at the finish.
Round at peg 9 Ian went out to 12 metres with shallow pellet which attracted mainly ghosties to 4lbs, and when the whistle went he needed a couple more fish, as the scales stopped at 100-9-0.
Jason Atwell (Kingswinford) finished in third, he was top weight on the Acorn Pool with an even 82-0-0 from peg 1 and at Acorn 7 Colin Wozak (
Mick Jameson (Mid Leisure) had top weight of the week to add to his ever growing list of results at Boldings, when he headed the Wednesday card from peg 32 on the Beech. Carp to 8lbs homed in on his pellet bait, presented on the 3 metre line and down the side to give a return of 151-10-0.
In the corner at Beech 3, Tony Foster (PI Boldings) mixed roach to 1lb with carp to 6lbs, fishing pellet to each side of the peg, to weigh 109-2-0 for second. Richard Duke (BAS) finished third for the second Wednesday running when he scaled 92-0-0 at Beech 23, and a Hawthorn top weight of 87-6-0 saw Neil Mansfield (Wem) into 4th.
PI Boldings rods filled the frame on Thursday with Paul Evans topping the list with an Oak Pool catch. He was on peg 29, and fished to the side of the tree with caster. He was kept busy with roach small carp throughout the match, and by the end had amassed 101-3-0.
The rest of the top four were all on the Sycamore with only 4.5lbs separating them. Second went to Paul Ferguson at peg 22 where pellet and corn put 86-7-0 of carp to 8 lbs on the scales. Gary Morris netted 84-9-0 at point peg 13 for third, and Graham Roberts had 83-14-0 at peg 25.
The Sycamore provided the top two catches on Saturday when Danny Boden (Oakengates Ang Cent) put his name on the winners envelope. Having drawn peg 50, Danny decided on fishing down the ledge with corn and pellet, which paid off to the tune of 89-15-0, made up with carp to 8lbs.
In the middle of the long bank, at peg 30, Colin Reynolds added a second place to his earlier winner by taking a mixture of carp to 7lbs and bream to 3lbs on pellet at 5 metres and in the side. Les Thompson (Rod & Gun) was top man on the Beech, and third overall with 76-15-0 from peg 16, and back on the Sycamore fellow Rod & Gun man John Francis scaled 74-12-0 for 4th at peg 48.
Weights were up on Sunday, with the top four all topping the ton. Best of them was Carl Jones (Maver) who fished to the paddles and in the margins with corn and pellet at Hawthorn 15 to total 125-4-0.
Gareth Emlyn (Oakengates Ang cent) fished maggot to each side of the point at Beech 7 to finish one fish behind on 120-8-0. Mick Jameson had his second framer of the week, taking third by one ounce from Dave Matson (R&G). Mick’s 106-8-0 came from Hawthorn 5, and Dave had 106-7-0 at Beech 16.
