Well...the last match of the season and it was at Lakeside Ranskill in the match lake. An earlier start than anticipated due to the owner weighing in as most of the lakes had matches on. No worries,here are the results.
1st Mathew Laban 89lb 3oz.
2nd Chippy 88lb 12oz.
3rd Paul Briggs 86lb 1oz.
Section winners are Gary Sweeting and Toller.
Now the knockout final was Chippy v Gary Sweeting...well done Chippy is the champ, well done pal.
That was our last match, next year, well there's some guys leaving, Mark Henry leaving cos of health problems, a good mate of mine and he's been in the club for some years and will be missed. Others I can't answer for as it could be just summat and nothing, so my lips are sealed, but I do defo know one. So, there will be some vacancies for joining our club. Don't dilly dally. If you've never been in a fishing club before ,don't think you're not good enough as I learned from match one 40 plus years ago off other anglers.
Anyway guys, next year ,we'll have to see what our secretary has up his sleeve, so Simon it's all yours pal.

Top lake at Lodgefarm ,here are the efforts of the clubs anglers...
1st Mathew Laban 85lb 9oz
2nd Chippy 74lb 6oz
3rd Simon Hez 60lb 12oz.
Section winners were Andy Mott and Craig Fairbrother. Knockout semi were Rob Beatson v Chippy...well done Chippy. Not a lot to be said, if you didn't have an island to chuck to then you might as well not bother getting the tackle out of the car, but myself and Gary Sweeting , Mark Hooton were not in the mood to do so and we stuck it out fishing open water.
One match left to end the season and that's Lakeside Ranskill , fishing the main lake. We don't know if we've all the lake or if we are sharing the railway side or the other. Let's leave it to the owners and wait for the moaners and groaners, and who goes home cos it's a s**t hole cos of not getting the peg that's a winner. Lol.

Ok.....Swanlands near Thorne and we fished Chestnut lake,and the results.
1st Mathew Laban 92lb 3oz.
2nd Rob Rothman 49lb 8oz.
3rd Andy Mott 39lb 12oz.
Sections were ..Toller and waggler man Gary Sweeting.
Well done to all but Gary you will have to do better to get your name in the top three. Lol.
Knockout...Paul Carnall v Rob Beatson. Well done Rob and Chippy v nobody, he only had to catch a fish and did....you're thro to the next round.
Next match is a memorial match of Brian Needham this coming Saturday. Due to the low water levels, only ten will fish because keep nets will be submerged. As for the club match, I do believe it's lodgefarm main lake the following weekend. This will get carp anglers giddy, as there's some big boys in there. Myself bream n f1s are my target, infact anything that swims. Cheers.

Yesterday was the yearly match on Milton top pond in the memory of Mr Tony White who is fishing in the sky with his other buddies. Due to the dry weather, Mark Henry and Simon Hez picked ten pegs due to the water being low so keep nets would be safe to use so the fish were protected. The results are......
1st Rob Beatson....55lb 6oz.
2nd Paul Briggs....32lb 5oz.
3rd Toller...31lb 6oz.
4th Dave Rose....30lb 10oz.
Biggest carp went to Rob Beatson and biggest roach to Briggsy.
Tony White's family came down, Dave, Mark, and Kevin, who has now moved back to England, we're onlookers and donated monies to the winners of the biggest carp(again the only one I think) and roach caught. 242lb of silvers, were caught between the nine anglers thereabouts so not a bad days angling were had. Would like to thank Mark Henry for letting us have the top pond in memory of Tony White, and thank Dave and Kevin White for donating monies to the prizes. Thankyou.

Knockout was Mark Henry v Dave Peet...all Dave had to do was catch a fish, unlucky... both do not go to the next round. As you can see from the results it fished great. Next match at Messingham Swan. Won't be going myself as I can't be bothered to travel, so good luck guys. Well done to all who stuck it out at Hayton, and well done guys who went home early lol.

Apologies for the photo, I lost the original by hitting the wrong button.
Ok, we were at Hayfield Big Adams lake, not been there since they first opened when it was one large lake. Anyway the results.

Knockout was Mathew Laban v Chippy. Well done Chippy you're through to the next round. Well done all, it was windy, prob been better wind surfing. Weights considering the wind, were good . Think the pairs winners were Gary and Briggsy. Well it's Hayton Pintail this Saturday. The last time we went all the pegs were under water and the fish were spawning. See what happens this time. Cheers.

Oki doki, our match was at Messingham Sands island. A bit of a journey and a last minute decision on my behalf to go. Weather was a bit cooler, not much, but a bit of a breeze to ease the heat. Anyway here's the results.
1st Rob Beatson 188lb 2oz.
2nd Toller 76lb 3oz.
3rd Rob Rothman 48lb 6oz.
Sections were Simon Hez and Craig Fairbrother.
Knockout was Briggsy v Mick Ackroyd. Neither could turn up so they are out. Next match is at Hayfield two weeks today.
Well done guys anyway, great weight by Mr Beatson. When you dip your hand in that bag anything can happen. Just adapt and enjoy your days fishing and my rule is KIS....KEEP IT SIMPLE. Cheers.

Short trip to lodgefarm Field side. Not everyone's cuppa cos it means carrying your tackle but that's how it is, bit diff when you crossed two maybe three fields, over gates, with one keep net, one or two at most rods still in a cloth bag and a wicker basket over your shoulder and a metal landing net handle. Ah well with the stuff we've got everybody would be going home. Any that's our trip of yesteryear mentioned. RESULTS.

1ST Paul Carnell...134lb 09oz.
2nd Paul Briggs... 110lb 03oz.
3rd Craig Fairbrother...81lb 11oz.
4th Chippy...78lb 07oz.
No sections this week, not enough of us. Knockout was Gary Sweeting n Rob Rothman, well done Gary you're through. A tough match on the lower numbers, wind didn't help, plus all the best weights came from the other end...but that's fishing for ya. Next match, a longer drive and possibly a late get home arrival is Messingham Sands island. Cheers.
