14 members made the trip today to see if they can win this competition. The weather was sunny and quite warm with  strong wind which would make fishing rather difficult. At the draw bag Mark Seaman pulled peg 1 out and everyone thought they were fishing for second place. But unluckily for him Dave Agass had different plans. He was fishing peg 8 and ran out the winner with a total weight of 39lb  8oz . Well done Dave! ( everyone wants to know what they gave you in hospital 😀) 

Second place goes to John Higginson who was fishing peg 6 and weighed 27lb 8oz which included one carp which was over 10lb. Well done John!

The venue this week – Reepham Fishery.
20 members turned up once again this week all hoping it would be their lucky day. The weather was overcast but really warm and good for fishing. The weights on the Tuesday open were phenomenal and everybody was hoping for more of the same. However, it didn’t go quite so well for some but everybody caught some fish. This week’s winner was Mark Harmer who had done some practice on the Tuesday open. Mark somehow managed to pull peg 27 out of the bag again and made no mistake weighing a very impressive 188lb 13oz. Well done!
Second place this week was last week’s winner Mark Charlwood. He was fishing peg 2 and weighed another good weight of 135lb 3oz. Well done, Mark!

The venue this week was Railway Lake on The Barford complex
14 members made the long trip this week. The weather was a little bit wet but still ok for fishing as it was only light rain. With the extremely hot weather during the week and the sudden change for the weekend people were expecting fishing to be rather hard. And it was definitely hard this week.
Mark Charlwood made the most from his end peg to take the first place. He fished peg 28 and caught across for the total weight of 41lb. Well done!
Second place goes to the inform Dave Agass who was fishing peg 4 and weighed 37lb so that’s three frames on the trot. Well done!

18 members made the trip this week which was another really good turn out. The weather was very warm again with just a little bit of wind and as always everybody was looking forward to a good day’s fishing. With the draw done it was time to fish. Unfortunately, the fish didn’t want to be caught today in most areas. As normal the top weights were very good but the backup weights were rather poor for this time of the year.

Once again it was Mark Seaman coming out on top with a total weight of 61lb 8oz. Mark was fishing peg 15.

Second place goes to Alex (The Bandit) Watson. He was fishing peg 1 and weighed 59lb 4oz.

14 members turned up this week just to see if they can be victorious.
The weather was overcast with the odd glimpse of sunshine and everyone was hoping for the good day’s fishing.
We were all fishing on the far side of the Meadow lake because of the bivvy boys.
This was the first trip to this venue for some of us so there was a lot of talk at the start about what was what and how to fish.
Mark Harmer drew peg 14 which was lucky for him being the end peg. Mark caught some small skimmers on the feeder to start but decided to fish down his edge and he found to his surprise there were some carp waiting there already. Mark run out the winner weighing 58lb 4oz.
Second place goes to Mark Seaman who was fishing peg 10 and caught carp on the pellet waggler and weighed 35lb 10oz.
