PS A new match record of 62lb was achieved this week at Withnell Fold. A cracking wieght for a non-commercial fishery don’t you think?
john i may be wrong – but i think that may be a Prince Albert – withnell match record –
now dont quote me on this but many years ago, the first person i ever saw fishing dog biscuits off the top for carp in a match was a certain owner of an ince based fishing tackle manufacturer(you know the one – marine animal 8 legs) he broke the match record at garswood hall AC’s middle place and i was told he had done the same the day before on withnell AC’s lower lake with 100lb of chum mixer caught carp.
irrespective of that 62lb is indeed a cracking match weight, one i have only bettered in ireland, once on the ribble (i drew the salmon pool run off peg)in PA super league match and had a dozen chub and 40lb of dace for 73lb ish, and on commies.
Bobby is a genius.
He knew full well we wouldn’t be relegated so rather than have us in a position of safe, mid-table mediocrity he left it until the last two games – well one and a half actually to increase the tension – to do the necessary and maintain our Premier League status, thereby raising the profile of the club, raising the elation and expectation of the fans and therefore boost season ticket sales for next season.
Brilliant….!!!(Maybe admin should consider starting a fishing only forum)

Good idea.
Do you prefer open or blockend feeders?
I personally think that the fishing anecdotes brighten up the threads.
They are accurate, educational and quite amusing at times.
Having recently returned to the sport after an abscence of about 30 years, I thoroughly enjoyed the day.
Another day has been planned for the near future.
The guidance given has been very helpful.
