Curse match 5 - onto our cut

#1

Right guys - a decision for you

Was intending for this to be on the the Fishley section.

However the lock is shafted again.............Heinzer popped down a couple of days ago to check it out and reports that its 'glued up again'

Do ya wanna meet at Wood Lane and go a dozen or so either side, or meet on the junction

reports I'm getting are of some better bags up that end

Upto you guys - let me know asap - I'll make a decision on your feedback and other reports I hear on Wednesday

MrV · #2

Either for me TK. I went for a couple of hours on the Common yesterday and caught well

#3

Nice one MrV

Sounds like you are man again to beat on Saturday

#4

TBH MrV, I quite fancy giving the Common a bash......I've heard of some decent catch reports off there over the last couple of weeks

I've reported the issue with the lock again to my BWB contact, but unfortunately I received an OOO response to my email...........

Heinzer is going to pop down Fishley this week with his blow torch and see if he can melt the glue - we'll see how he gets on

Forgot to add that Hotlips told me he was going to give this one a miss............

He told me he thought it was only fair to miss it so as to give some other member a chance of winning on the canal

Went down to the Wood Lane bridge this evening TK and there were quite a lot of Bullrush cuttings heading towards the Oak. Have BW been at it again?

#8

Not that I'm aware of it John - there was a far few reeds floating back and forth around the bridge yesterday when I popped down John

But just past that first copse it was pretty clear - nothing really to mention

#9

There was some reeds in my peg on Wood Lane bend on a match a few years ago John

Even a door at one stage

Having not fished on either stretch I aint bovva'd .

Just let me have a post code for the sat nav an i'll be there.

#11

Will do Gudgeon Basher

#12

For info Gudgeon Basher

Postcode for Wood lane is WS3 5AA

Postcode for the Fingerpost pub is WS3 5AU

If we fish the top/middle of the common, head for the pub, just over the bridge that the pub sits on is a track that leads down to a canal house, swing left past the canal house and park right on the junction of the two canals

Looks like The Hunter and Colin might be the guys to beat this week.........

Both had another session yesterday along the Common with Col just 'edging it' over the Hunters bag of skimmers and roach with a proper 6lb bream, 3.5lb tinca and a load of 12oz - 1lb skimmers

#17

Ok guys and gals...........decision made

Meet/draw at Wood Lane - we'll go a dozen or so pegs either side

Normal 9am draw (or earlier if everyone is in tow), fish 10am to 3pm

Please spread the word to any of your chums who dont have a tin box
