Winter League 2006/7 - Blundell's Farm- 11th October 2006


The second of our 2006/7 Winter League took place today at Blundells Farm, Rixton, Warrington. Or Blundell's 'Wind' Farm has it has been renamed after this match.
Some sadness as we held a minutes silence to remember our friend and fellow club member John Lawrinson who passed away recently.
A turnout of 16 members took part in a match that will be remembered for the high winds that were blowing throughout the match, although the rain stayed away.
We also welcomed a new member to our club and our matches, that was Tom Prescot, welcome to him and we hope you enjoy being part of our club.
It was extremely difficult fishing conditions today, and a long five hours with the wind gusting westerly in excess of 25mph. Fortunately and suprisingly there were few major incidents. One highlight was seeing Roly's bait boxes sailing across the water with his bait still in it! This happened twice, and he was jokingly told "No bait boats allowed".
Ste Hughes and myself both had fights with our umbrella's....Not to put them up, although that was fun, but taking them down. The wind was so strong the mechanisms wouldn't release, but we did it in the end, without losing either of them, although we looked daft dancing round the pegs with them!.
For the umpteenth time now the Golden Peg remains safe, with the unlucky soul this time being one of our new members John Burgoyne who finished in joint third place, not bad, but i'm sure he would have fancied the Golden Peg!
The next chance comes in two weeks time on 25th November at Dunham Fishery, hope we see you there!
