The bank Holiday honours at Boldings Pools went to Jamie Langford [Preston Inno Boldings] by courtesy of 104-3-0 from peg 30 on the Sycamore Pool. Pellet and maggot alternated between the 8 metre line and in the margins resulted in a net of carp to 7lbs, together with barbel and bream to 3lbs.
Maggot and corn was the bait combo selected by Andy Williams [Vespe] to fish at 5 metres as well as close in at Sycamore 16. His tactics resulted in a bag of carp to 7lbs which gave a total of 89-15-0and second spot. Dave Pritchard [PI Bold] claimed third by scaling 81-7-0 at peg 21, leaving Harry Colley [PI Bold]to take home fourth thanks to 74-5-0 from peg 13.
It was on the Wednesday open that Dave Brown [Maver] set the best standard of the week, and he did it from the Ash Pool, which hit form again after playing second fiddle to the Beech recently. Dave drew peg 3, which he tackled with maggot, fished shallow, and down the side to make a terrific haul of carp to 6lbs totaling 167-14-0.
Further along the same bank, Dave Doughty [Wood End] operated with pellet and corn to net 100-12-0 of carp to 7lbs which made him the runner up. Third man Stuart Aston [Swan] was top of the Beech card with 85-13-0 at peg 7, while back on the Ash Bob Tromans [Fiery Holes] had 80-50 at peg 23.
Switching between 5 metres and 8 metres with pellet, maggot and corn at Willows peg 5 kept Matt Edgerton [Oakengates Angling Centre] one step ahead of the opposition on Thursday, by putting 107-15-0 of carp to 7lbs and barbel to 5lbs on the scales.

The Monday open on the Willows Pool at Boldings Pools produced a close battle for first place between Phil Shaw [PI Boldings] and Eric Bancroft [Rod & Gun].
Both caught carp and barbel, and while Eric had a better stamp of fish, it was quantity not quality which prevailed, with carp to 6lbs and barbel to 4lbs, all caught on shallow caster, which gave Phil a return of 114-11-0 at peg 5.
Eric had his fish, carp to 7lbs and barbel to 5lbs, on maggot in the margins at peg 13, but fell one fish short with 112-12-0 at the whistle. Bewdley rod Paul Evans was next to winner on peg 4, where 101-14-0 put him into third, just ahead of Graham Roberts [PI Bold] who had 99-8-0 at peg 8.
The Beech Pool outshone the Ash on Wednesday to give the top two places, and again there wasn't a lot between first and second.
Darren Warden [PI Bold] put his name on the main prize by scaling 84-5-0 at Beech peg 5 to fend off Mick Perry [PI Bold] who weighed in 79-7-0 at Beech 20 to collect second. Third went to the top catch from the Ash Pool, 59-11-0, which gave the place to Ron Clarke [PI Bold]. Fourth also came from the Ash when Graham Palmer [Fitters] recorded 55-8-0 at peg 6.
Weights climbed on Thursday when the spoils were shared between the Chestnut and Sycamore Pools with Chestnut peg 17 providing Dave Brown [Maver] with the top catch of the day, 118-14-0.
Point peg 13 on the Sycamore yielded the runner up weight of 111-6-0 to Steve Owen [Monkhall]. Eric Bancroft tagged a third place onto his earlier second when he booked in 102-4-0 at Chestnut 21, and peg 21 on the Sycamore helped Darren Warden add to his Wednesday win with a total of 82-4-0.
Jason Atwell [Kingswinford] established the biggest winning margin of the week when he took the laurels on Saturday from peg 39 on the Chestnut. Maggot, presented at 5 metres brought carp to 7lbs and bream to 2lbs onto the feed to give Jason figures of 91-14-0 and an advantage of just under 22lbs over the rest.
Peg 13 on the Sycamore came up with second place again, this time for Joe Brennan [PI Bold] who also caught carp and bream on maggot, which he worked at 4 metres.

Round at Sycamore 16 Keith Powell [PI Bold] filled third with 59-1-0 and 45-11-0 from Chestnut 21 put Morgan Davidson [Monkhall] into fourth.
Sunday came up with the best weight of the week again, and again it was 150lbs plus which took the accolade, which went to Andy Kyte [Middle Severn Angling].
He was drawn on peg 39 on the Sycamore and attracted carp to 8lbs and barbel to 4lbs with corn, pellet and caster, fished to each side of the peg. Fish came to the net regularly and at the finish Andy had 156-4-0 to hand over to the scales.
Matt Edgerton [Oakengates Ang Cent] was over on corner peg 4 on the Sycamore, and he too caught well to finish with 142-4-0 of pellet fed carp to 7lbs and bream to 3lbs.
