Gorleston Bend - Monday 14th April

A chilly northerly on a surprisingly dry night kicked off our 2008 season at the mouth of the river Yare. An increasingly ebbing tide was the wrong tide to fish this venue but some did find the small codling although you did need crab to catch in numbers. A relatively good turnout for the first match of 13 managed to find 70 fish, mostly small codling with the odd pout.

With an end peg and a bucket of crab, Clyde “end peg” Leggett (peg 14) with 8lb 2 2/3oz from 18 fish took top spot followed by Wayne “rocketman” Perring (10) with 5lb 1 1/3oz from 12 fish. Final podium spot went to Keith “the boss” Morley (4) using the full width of the river to record 3lb 1oz from 8 fish.

With some serious easterly winds predicted on a big tide it was decided to cancel the Gorleston Wreck match which in the event was the right decision. As this was the first of the summer league the replacement match will be the river Aldle Open on 10th May so please book in. Let’s hope the weather warms up soon to bring out the peelers and get those stonking eels moving!!!

Match 1 Deganwy
Sat. April 12th.
24 members fished the first leg of Colwyn Bay Victoria Sea angling clubs summer shore league at Deganwy last Saturday. A cold wind coming across the estuary brought a procession of heavy showers straight in our faces to make for a very uncomfortable four hours.
Janet Dorling, of Meliden had the top bag, 7 flounders for 2.45 kgs., Mike Jones was 2nd with 5 for 2.19 kgs. Norman Dorling also had 5 for 1.99 kgs., and John Smith took 4th with 4 for 1.25 kgs. Wayne McGilloway was 5th with 1.10 and Mark Hill 6th with 0.75.
Two teams tied on 64 points, Mark Hill and John Smith were one, and Norman Dorling and Gary McLeod the other. Janet took the ladies prize, and Thomas Jones the juniors. The heaviest fish was one of Mike Jones`s flounders at 0.58 kgs.

This week’s match was a difficult one. Yet again the weatherman got it all wrong! A sunny spell followed by heavy showers and the odd boom of thunder prevailed for the afternoon’s session. The sea was slight to moderately rough and high tide around 1 o’clock.

The matched kicked off a 2pm and we fished the tide down. In the car park before the match got underway there was talk of a possible coddling winning the money. Other anglers reckoned that targeting dabs would be the key to success. In the end pouting were in fact the most frequent fish popping up on the scorecards, with reports of many under size fish being caught.

Once again the fishing gods smiled upon Richard (Golden B******s) Ives. Who managed to winkle out a few sizable whiting at the very start of the match to give him a real edge over the other anglers and a winning weight of 2lb 6oz. Roll on next weeks match and fingers crossed there are a few more fish to catch!

In total contrast to last weeks summer conditions, we had northerly winds and snow before the match started,luckily the sea state had calmed off enough to make it fishable.

Only 9 anglers braved the cold for the second match of the season and we fished the flood tide, for a time we could hold the bottom but during the last 2 hours of the match this became increasingly difficult.Weed and waves played their part with only 5 of the 9 anglers having anything to show.

Bob Thompson with an early codling for 2.4 2/3 secured victory with no other angler breaking the 1lb mark.All in all a dissappointing session with many undersize codling being reported.
