BOLDINGS REPORT  18-2-14.

 

          With a bit of winter sunshine to enjoy for a change, in between a few showers, Monday proved to be the best day at Boldings Pools, both weather-wise and in fishing terms. Eric Bancroft [Rod & Gun] made the most of the improved conditions to post the best weight of the week, 61-6-0.

He was drawn on peg 5 on the Ash Pool and made his winning haul by feeding pellet and maggot at 12 metres, to attract carp from 1lb to 4lbs.

          Eddy Edwards [Dorset AC] was on the opposite side of the pool at peg 18, and used the same bait combination, alternating the 5 metre and 12 metre lines to net a similar stamp of fish to Eric, but not as many, and finished 15lbs short of the mark on 46-9-0.

          Two pegs along from Eddy, Joe Brennan PI Boldings] netted 41-14-0 to finish third, two pounds ahead of last weeks double winner Colin Reynolds [Bilston Ang Cent] who had 39-14-0 at peg 9.

 

          Ken Humphreys [Oswestry] followed up his Saturday win of last week with victory on this weeks Thursday open, winning from peg 20 on the Beech Pool this time. Like last week, Ken both fed, and baited his hook with maggot to work the 12 metre line as well as using a close in approach. Carp to 5lbs and bream to 2lbs responded, and at the finish, the scales recorded a level 50-0-0.

          Colin Reynolds was one place off another double when he finished in second this time out. He was on Beech 16, and had carp to 4lbs on pellet, fished close in and at 5 metres, to end the day on 35-13-0.

          Tony Foster [PI Bold] scaled 33-6-0 for third at Beech 7, while 4^th went to an Ash Pool best of 26-1-0 by Adam Slade [Sedgeley]. 

 

          Pete Plant [Maver Midlands] scored from corner peg 1 on the Hawthorn Pool on Saturday to record his first win of 2014, which will no doubt be the first of a good many. He held off the challenge of fellow Maver rod Dave Craggs, finishing seven and a half pounds ahead with 55-9-0.

          Dave was up at the other end of the pool on peg 9 and had had an even 48-0-0 to claim second. Alan Naylor [Oakengates Ang Cent] is putting together a run of frame appearances, and added a third to list when he scaled 32-4-0 at peg 11, and was closely followed by Steve Hall [Oswestry] who had 31-8-0 at peg 7.
