Junior Match
June 15th 2019
Harris Lake

With only 5 attending there was plenty of space for them, but it didn't do any good as fish where conspicuous by their absence, something not entirely unknown on this lake! Only one caught and that was Michael Ewing, who managed a 2lb crucian from peg 31. Very disappointing for the youngsters and something that is beginning to characterise a potentially beautiful lake!
At the moment, our next Junior match is under threat due to the current fish mortality issues on Broadwater. I hope to confirm later this week whether the night match will go ahead this year, in order to give plenty of time for the lakes issues to be re-assessed and passed fit for purpose.

Junior Match
June 1st 2019
Richardson Lake

The small turnout all managed double figures with Ben Gregoriades leading the way with over 14lb of bream, skimmers, tench and a solitary crucian off peg 9. Close behind was last match winner Monty Martin, who despite coping with annoying willow fluff had a creditable 12lb plus of bream, skimmers and tench to caster over gb from peg 11. George Evans kept in touch with over 10lb of similar off peg 13.
Next match is on Harris Lake on June 15th.

Junior Match – Dads & Lads
May 11^th 2019
Richardson Lake

Not many turned up for this round, but numbers were swelled with a late surrogate partner entry for Monty Martin and they turned in a winning performance from a noted area. Monty led the team with a winning weight of 18lb 8ozs of tench, bream and small skimmers on caster over gb from peg 13. His partner, organizer Dave Johnson, chipped in with 10lb 4ozs of similar to waggler and bomb from peg 12, making a total combined weight of 28lb 12ozs for a clear win. Next best were favourites Team Etherington, who relied on dad Paul to provide the teams top weight with 13lb 7ozs of bream and tench from peg 16. Son Ethan managed just 10lb 3ozs so bragging rights where firmly with the older generation on the way home!

Monty Martin & Dave Johnson 28-12-0
Ethan & Paul Etherington 23-10-8
Jessica & David Carter 19-0-0
Ben & Marcus Gregoriades 11-1-8
