STACEYS Match Group’s fixture at New Barlows Lake put Pete Stevens in the driving seat a carp and bream bag of 20lb caught on pole and maggot.

Andy Wicks used pole and bread for his 18lb 8oz of carp, Paul Follington’s 11lb 4oz included a 3lb chub pole and maggot was used, whilst Steve Davis weighed in 7lb 8oz. Three blanked out of 11.

Adventure AS were at Greenridge Farm last Sunday and Rob Gallagher topped out on 99lb 4oz of carp on pole and banded pellet. Mick Fordham’s 90lb 8oz was a pole and corn affair whilst Graham Spiller netted 46lb 6oz of carp on pole and pellet. All nine caught.

Camrose AC went to Soke Road Lake for their latest match and Bill Atkinson sorted it best with 7lb 8oz of carp on pole and maggot.

Pip Seeney caught two tench on pole and maggot to weigh 4lb 12oz, whilst Tony Holdsworth weighed in 3lb 4oz on pole and maggot. All eight caught.

Eight Kennet Ospreys fished their latest fixture at Frobury Farm Match Lake Two, where Simon (the god) Kiefer won with an even 14lb of carp on pole and maggot, Stuart Westlake used pole and maggot for his 9lb 5oz of carp, whilst Andre Grandjean caught 5lb 12oz. Four anglers did not weigh.

The Gold Valley Lake complex at Ash near Aldershot has undertaken a huge stocking program over the last couple of months. With two and a half tons of F1 carp going into middle lake plus 2,000 fish in the 1lb to 2lb class. Big Gold Lake has received fish in the 12lb to 24lb bracket plus two fish over 30lb. Syndicate lake is to become a bag up match lake with most of the 4lb plus fish from middle lake being stocked whilst bungalow lake will be netted and all the silver fish caught going into the middle lake. I’m guessing it will be the place to fish in the summer.

Catch me next week.
