HSAC Presidents Cup Sheringham 09/11/08

Posted by admin - 14/11/08 at 10:11 am

With the majority of Holt regulars fishing elsewhere in the Teams of Five event, the remaining crew settled in to the west of the lifeboat slipway in the hope of catching a Codling or two.
Reports of good-size Codling and Whiting being caught less than a quarter of a mile to the west at the locally renown Old High mark sparked their imagination throughout the day.
However a stiff Southwesterly had flattened the sea, and along with it, any hopes of tempting the better fish off the rough ground that lies but a short distance offshore.
The only Codling of the day fell to Russell Barber which helped secure him second place behind John Neave who managed a mixed bag of nine fish to take the overall match spot.
 Result
1st    J.Neave         9 fish  2lb  8oz
2nd   R.Barber        2 fish  1lb  11oz
3rd    S.Attew         4 fish  1lb  8oz 
4th    B.Thompson  0 fish    -     -

CBVSAC-Match 9 - Llandudno North Shore - Saturday 1st November 2008

Posted by admin - 14/11/08 at 09:11 am

A good turnout of 18 for this one, on a bitterly cold night with an onshore wind and a couple of hundred yards of white surf to cast into, it looked grim to say the least!

The first couple of hours were hard work with just the odd fish showing, but the whiting came on as the water got deeper, although they were mostly undersize, or only just in.

Billy McLintock gave us a masterclass, with a bag of 15 whiting, 2 dogs and a dab for 4.45 kgs. Terry Jones managed to find a decent codling and 9 whiting for 2.70 in 2nd and Gary McLeod had 12 whiting for 2.09 in 3rd. Norman Dorling took 4th with 7 whiting and a flounder for 1.56, to hold on to his lead in the league, with one match left. Fifth place went to Dave Mitchell with 4 whiting, a dog and a rockling for 1.50, and 6th was Mike Peters with 10 whiting for 1.48.

Sue Price took the ladies prize with 2 rockling for 0.22 and top team were Norman Dorling and Gary McLeod with 68 points. The heaviest fish was Terrys codling of 1.45 ( 3-03-08 lbs.)
