Im lead to believe that it shall be worth the walk though gents! Will deffo need a beer after the match though!

[TK]

Right guys - pin back your lugholes...........

Been down the canal today, and as commented earlier, it is gin - you can see the fish cruising about

Not a problem (for me) but what was a problem is down the track where we park up some tosser has fly tipped 50/100 tyres       blocking the access to that section of canal . I've reported the matter to BWB and the EA (its a joint site) but obviously cant guarantee that they'll be shifted  by Sunday  :(







So the contingency plan is now invoked - we will fish the Cannock Extension Canal - its got more colour in, even though I could see loads of bream basking today    when I walked it

For the uninitiated the Cannock Extension Canal is located in Lime Lane Norton Canes/Pelsall (some of you guys coming from the north or east such as Joffie would have actually passed this section on their way to where we originally planned to fish)


The nearest postcode I can find is WS3 5AS which is for some industrial units about 400 yards away

Postcode is WS3 5AW




With those units on your left, continue 'south' along Lime Lane, cross the new Pelsall Road Bridge which goes over the cut and then about 60 yards on the right hand side park on the verge. We will be fishing the 'kennels' section which runs from the Pelsall Road Bridge down to Wyrley Grove Bridge

Same time etc...........9am draw, fish 10am to 3pm...........but the banter and yellow stream taking will start I'm sure around 8am   

Give me a shout if you need any more info - same target fish, bremes, tincas and the usual roach, skimmers rudd and perch

[guzzunda]

whats the cost to fish ?

[TK]

Just a fiver guzunda - all paid out in 5 or 6 man sections (dependent on turnout), rather than 1, 2 & 3.

It aint about the money - it's about all having a laff, some banter and the bragging rights if you do aok and finish as champ

[guzzunda]

thats a bargain.39 anglers thats great turn out should be a good match.

[Geoff_E]

TK the post code for the fingerpost pub is WS3 5AU if thats any help.

[TK]

Ta Geoff, but I've finally managed to find the postcode for 'Grove Cottage' - aka as what was the 'kennels' - its WS3 5AW

We'll be parking right by it

According to google maps it's address is
143 Lime Ln, Norton Canes, Walsall, Staffordshire WS3 5AW

[Simple]

Tony, thanks for running this again. Its appreciated

Can't wait. Better tie some cut rigs up or just add an 0.10 hooklength to my rolfs rigs

[TK]

No probs Simps...........

Make sure youve got some 0.21 lengths as well just incase the torpedos decide to put in a show

See you Sat

[Simple]

I have got 0.24 powerline rigs ready and waiting with my pink vespe. If I can't stop them on that at least I can go water skiing lol

[TK]

I hear Yamo whilst knocking out a ton or so - yep a ton plus - got smashed up (on the common on W&E) last week..........

A carper shortly set up nearby...........

And promptly netted an 18.5lb'er.............complete with Yamos hook

Waiting for the photos from Yamo to stick on here.............aok I know it was on the Common........but they also swim up that Extension

[Simple]

I'd love to snare a nice wild 18lb wild cut carp on the pole. Be interesting to see how different they fight to a puddle pig.

[joffmiester]

bloody hell looks like woodworms cleared his back garden up must be surplus stock from when he worked at goodyear

[Mugger]

Apologies folks, but as I told Simps on the phone this morning I won't be able to make this one now as we've just found out that Mrs M's Dad(74) has been admitted to hospital. :(
I've been really looking forward to this one, epecially as it looks like there are some lumps present that may have fancied some pellets and paste and been ripe for a mugging, but they'll now have to wait till next year.

Hope that everyone has a great day and look forward to reading the reports (hopefully with loads of pictures ) and remember 'Beware of THE MINX'.

[joffmiester]

:-[sorry to hear your news mugger i'm sure the reports will be good

TK colour never seen that before on your canal

[Simple]
