BOLDINGS REPORT
Weights fluctuated with the weather again at Boldings Pools this week, with the earlier matches proving the least productive.
Phil Shaw [Lower Hill] filled top spot on the Larch on Monday, winning from peg 5.

Colin had carp to 5lbs on pellet at 4 metres to weigh 34-5-0.

Wednesday was the hardest day and Bob Tromans [Fiery Holes] found his 28-4-0 of small carp, taken on pellet at 6 metres from Middle peg 10 was enough for a narrow victory.
Runner up Carl Foster [PI Bold] had his fish, carp to 4lbs, on pellet and maggot, fished into the corner at Stock peg 6, and was only one fish off victory with
Top weight of the week came on Thursday and was recorded by Brian Clark [Colmic Marukyu] at Beech peg 23. Ringing the changes between pellet at 5 metres and maggot close to the bank kept carp to 7lbs dropping regularly into the net to give Brian figures of 91-7-0.
Ash peg 9 produced well for Gary Morris [PI Bold] and he stayed in touch with the winner right up to the finish with carp to 7lbs again making up the catch.

With all the rain many of the pools were flooded on Saturday, so not surprisingly weights dipped again, but Alan Naylor [Oak Ang Cent] still managed a respectable 55-10-0 for victory on the Sycamore Pool. Fishing at 7 metres to the left and right of peg 13, Alan fed maggot and pellet to tempt carp to 5lbs and barbel to 3lbs.
Young Matt Eggerton [Oak Ang Cent] had carp to 6lbs on maggot at 8 metres from peg 49 to put his name on second prize by weighing 43-13-0. Carl Foster was in the list again, picking up third this time with 37-5-0 from peg 8 and Mick Jameson had another 4th when he scaled 31-0-0 at peg 24.
On Sunday corner peg 4 on the Sycamore yielded 84-6-0 of carp to 7lbs and barbel to 3lbs for Phil Taylor [Dams & Locks] to score a clear win. Phil took his catch on maggot, fished at 12 metres.
Sycamore peg 8 was in the frame again, helping Mark Taylor [Shakespeare] to second place. Carp and bream responded to Mark’s maggot and pellet, fished at 8 metres and in the margins, for a tally of 64-3-0. Adam Slade had another third when he weighed in a Beech best of 61-2-0 at peg 16 and at Beech 16 Colin Wozak [Matrix Total Angling] was a close 4th on 59-3-0.
