Congleton AS Junior Match

Chris Thornhill — Thu, 07 Aug 2008 06:50:20 +0000

Congleton Angling Society held a match for their junior members on Big Beam pool on August 6th 2008. Fishing for 4 hours, the youngsters managed some good results with first place going to Josh Jones on peg 21 with a 13lb 1oz bag. The full results table can be seen on our results page.

Organised by Bernard Chappel and Pete Farrell the adults were on hand to give some tips to the young anglers and maybe we should be looking to see if some of the names appear on our results board in the future!

A thoroughly enjoyable day was had by all.

14lb 8oz Ghost Carp.

A good afternoon spent on Sandy Pool!

Hi Chris
George and I fished Sandy Pool on Wednesday afternoon, what a lovely water. Fished feeder with worm or pellet and caught plenty of Carp from 2lb to 3lb 4oz and 8 different species which is always satisfying.
We shall return.

Many thanks - Dave

A fishery that compliments the angler.

Hi Chris

A friend and I fished Big beam on Monday this week. We both enjoyed our day out catching plenty of fish.

A fishery that is set out to compliment the angler, and shows true potential.

Thanks Again

Richard

Thank you.

Hi Chris,
Just a quick e-mail to say what a fantastic place you have, you made us feel very welcome. Kids really enjoyed it and had a great evening fishing, I think you caught their interest as soon as you started talking to my little lad about Motocrosss.
The Pools are set out great with easy access and cut grass makes them look extremely presentable.
Thanks again look forward to coming back soon.

Regards

Record bag caught on Big Beam - 37lb 1oz!

Chris Thornhill — Mon, 16 Jun 2008 09:25:59 +0000

A record bag has been recorded on Big Beam this weekend. W Rooke from Altrincham District Angling Club caught a massive 37lb 1oz worth of fish on Sunday providing our record catch for the fishery and proving that the £30 for 30lb bag is definitely achievable. In a match that would have been very closely fought without his result (see the match results page for full details) Mr Rooke blew all his opponents away!

Well done and welcome to the record breakers club at Fields Farm Fishery. Now it's up to you all to beat him.

Chris.

PS With the bonus peg fund now reaching nearly £100 - the next winner of the FFF Open Match on Saturday 21st June could easily leave us with over £150 in his pocket.

Bigger payouts and £30 for first 30lb winning bag in FFF Open matches!

Chris Thornhill — Tue, 27 May 2008 18:21:53 +0000

We have increased the money available for the winners of the Fields Farm Fisheries Open Matches!

Also Chris has set you all a challenge - for the first angler to achieve a 30lb winning bag in an Open Match - £30 will be added to their prize money! (Please note that there must be at least 10 participants in the match for the £30 prize to be on offer).

If you couple this with the fact that the bonus peg fund is now at nearly £60 - you could come away from a Fields Farm Fisheries Open Match with a well earned pocket of cash.

Join us next Saturday on Sandy Pool for the next Open Match. Call Chris today on 01270 753074 or e-mail us to let us know.

The Sun has brought along some big catches this weekend

Chris Thornhill — Mon, 12 May 2008 11:15:35 +0000

Along with the sun and the warmer weather came the bigger catches that we have been waiting for.

We had already seen catches ranging from 15lb - 18lb in the week, but as you can see from the pictures below the bigger Carp have made an appearance this weekend.

Dave caught the 17lb 10oz Mirror pictured below on Saturday on Kingfisher. He also netted a 10lb Mirror as well. Paul celebrated his birthday in style with a 16lb 10oz Mirror, shortly followed by a 14lb 8oz Ghost Carp (see below) both caught on Kingfisher pool on Sunday.

Who is going to catch the first 20lb+ catch of the season?
