JIMMY 'NEUTRON' GOES ATOMIC AT SMALLFORD
|
Young Jimmy 'Neutron' is a popular and regular visitor to
Smallford. Seen right with one of his upper doubles from last
year he must have thought all his birthdays had come at once
over the Bank Holiday weekend when he had settled in on Bastard
Point.
In addition to the usual interruptions from quality bream and
tench, Jimmy landed four carp, three over the 20lb mark and a
new personal best and possible lake record common of 27-06.
Eight other carp came to club members that weekend.
If you're down there yourself and see Jimmy, stop and say hello.
But make sure you have an excuse ready as, once he starts
talking, it's difficult to get away :)

from Frogmore |

It's not just
Smallford that's coming on strong. With fresh water and extra
stock in the match lake (pictured below) members are catching
plenty of quality bream and numerous carp, many in double
figures.
 |
Generous feeding of
pellet is the current method although plenty of fish are taking
worm, caster and maggot. |

Trout News
The policy of stocking quality sized fish is
paying dividends for
 our
Trout Section members. Below we see Ken
Mourton (left) with a five pounder and Brian
Gear with monster of six pounds.
A day ticket to VAC members cost £7 with
member accompanied guest tickets at £13.50
(£7.50 Day Ticket plus VAC Guest Ticket at
£6.00). For day tickets contact Paul Mills
with two days notice on 01727 758696.
Remember,
it is still a three fish limit but at about
two pounds plus each, that is 5 to 7 pounds
of beautiful trout with great sport a day
for £7 this year versus 3 to 4 pounds last!
Is that good value or what? Remember, Season
Tickets are still available at £70 for 10
weeks and £35 for 5 weeks. Apply to John
Youngs on 01582 833678.

RULE BREAKERS
On recent visits to Frogmore and Smallford a
number of members were caught leaving rods
unattended. This is against club rules and
these particular members were lucky not to
be facing disciplinary action. Not all had
new rod licenses either. Remember that the
old ones expired at the end of March.
Members are also reminded that, despite the
warm weather in late March, wading at
Riverside, when trout fishing or coarse
fishing, is strictly prohibited. This chap
was apparently struggling with his flies and
was about to try a woolly nobbler. Watch out
for the crayfish mate !! |
