Boldings report

Boldings report 297-14.

 

Meat and pellet fished close in at Hawthorn peg 3 saw Harry Colley [PI Boldings] through to victory at the Monday open on Boldings Pools. Carp to 8lbs moved in on the bait, and by the time the finishing whistle sounded, Harry had slipped the net under a level 103-0-0.

          At peg 5 Colin Reynolds [Bilston Ang Cent] used pellet at 5 metres and in the side to finish second for the second Monday running. His 87-4-0 included carp to 7lbs. Phil Shaw [PI Bold] had the best catch from the Beech Pool, 81-13-0 to finish third overall, with Bob Tromans [Fiery Holes] close behind on 79-2-0 at Hawthorn peg 9.

 

          Bob Tromans moved up to first place on Wednesday when he drew peg 37 on the Sycamore, and fished a corn and pellet combination to net carp and bream from each side of the peg, with carp to 9lbs and bream to 3lbs returning 98-8-0.

          Matt Stobbs [Oakengates Ang Cent] used the same tactics as the winner at peg 13, but a smaller stamp of carp, fish to 7lbs, with bream to 3lbs, left just under 2lbs short of the target on 96-11-0. Harry Colley added a third to his Monday first, scaling 89-13-0 at peg 24, to pip Josh Humphreys [ABC] whose 89-9-0 came from peg 34.

 

          Paul Wheeler [PI Bold] had top weight of the week to win on Thursday. Oak peg 16 responded to shallow pellet, putting 149-12-0 of carp to 5lbs on the scales.

          Similar tactics at Oak peg 8 found 102-0-0 of carp from 1lb to 4lbs which handed second to Mitch Jackson [Ind]. Third went to a Sycamore best of 94-13-0 by Phil Foster [PI Bold] at peg 45 and Ken Humphreys [Oswestry] followed in his sons footsteps by finishing fourth with 78-15-0 at Sycamore 24.

 

          The Saturday open gave a close finish on the Willows Pool, with only three ounces between first and second. Andy Kyte [Maver Sonubaits] squeezed home in first with a mix of carp to 8lbs and barbel to 3lbs weighing 136-12-0. Pellet, fished shallow and down the side at peg 7 did the trick for Andy, and it was shallow pellet that found the fish at peg 4 for Paul wheeler, who just missed out on a double win, as his carp were a bit smaller, up to 6lbs, leaving him agonizingly short on 136-9-0.

          At peg 13 Mitch Davidson [Oak Ang Cent] weighed in 90-13-0 to collect third and fellow Oakengates rod Steve Woodhall took fourth at peg 16 where he scaled 84-8-0.

 

          There was another close finish on Sunday, with two Oakengates Angling Centre battling for the honours. Both were drawn on the Chestnut Pool, and both caught carp to 9lbs together with bream.

          Eventual winner Steve Roberts included bream to 3lbs with his carp, which he caught on maggot and corn, close in at peg 8, for a total of 126-14-0.

          Gareth Emlyn caught close in on maggot at peg 18, where the bream ran to 2lbs, which left Gareth with a deficit of 10 ounces on 126-4-0.

          Third man Dave Hailey [PI Boldings] was the best on the Willows, weighing in 121-13-0 at peg 8, with Andy Kyte adding a fourth to his first with 114-11-0 at Willows 16.

Boldings report

Boldings report 23-7-14.

 

 

          There were plenty of barbel as well as carp in evidence at the Monday open at Boldings Pools. Dave Craggs [Maver Midlands] claimed the main prize from peg 18 on the Willows Pool by offering caster, up in the water, to tempt carp to 6lbs and barbel to 3lbs on his way to 140-11-0, which put him well clear of Colin Reynolds [Bilston Ang Cent]. Colin was on peg 5 on the opposite bank, and worked pellet at 5 metres and down the side for a mix of carp and barbel to 7lbs and 3lbs which weighed 95-10-0.

          At peg 9 dave Matson had 93-9-0 in third and at peg 22 Eric Bancroft [Rod & Gun] scaled 89-8-0 in 4^th.

 

          Sport was slower on the Sycamore on Wednesday and 78-1-0 of carp and barbel on pellet gave victory to Tony Woolaston [Kings] at peg 39.

          Andy Williams [Colmic Vespe] caught his runner up 60-2-0 on maggot and corn at corner peg 4. Third went to Darren Painter [Ind] who had 58-6-0 at peg 16, and 55-2-0 gave 4^th to Tony Foster [PI Boldings] at peg 33.

 

          Andy Williams more than doubled his weight on Thursday to move up to first place, his 149-13-0, which included carp to 12lbs, from peg 15 on the Hawthorn Pool giving him a clear win.

          Second came from Sycamore 24 where Gareth Emlyn [Oakengates Ang Cent] used maggot for a mix of carp and barbel totalling 97-3-0. 91-13-0 from Sycamore 30 handed third to Paul Evans [PI Bold] and in a close 4^th was Carl Foster [PI Bold] on 89-13-0 at Hawthorn 9.

 

          Top weight of the week came on Saturday and fell to Steve Hall [Oswestry] at Willows peg 5. Steve operated with shallow pellet for a haul of carp to 4lbs and barbel to 3lbs which gave a handsome return of 160-4-0.

          Phil Foster [PI Bold] used pellet and corn at Willows 9 to finish just short of 150lbs on 149-11-0 in second. Tony Foster was back in the frame with 143-8-0 for third, leaving Ken Humphreys [Oswestry] to finish things off with 85-8-0.

 

          Sunday gave another heavyweight frame which was topped by dave Hailey [PI Bold] at Oak peg 1. He fished shallow with pellet to heave out 151-4-0 of carp to 6lbs.

          Colin Wozek [Matrix TA] was on Willows 17, where shallow caster put 138-13-0 on the scales, then back on the Oak Shane Rogers [Oak Ang Cent] had 112-12-0 for third. Willow 5 put Dave Craggs in the frame again, he rounded off the week with a fourth placed 109-13-0.
