Vale Park 05/10/25

With the autumn invasion of whiting underway, there was certainly no shortage of fish at this venue. However, as this encounter was a species match, in reality only one whiting was needed per angler—meaning the difficult part was going to be finding other species.


With an array of baits and tactics being deployed, some of the anglers were able to land additional species, and at the conclusion of the match, Yuri Kazlouski came out on top with four species which, including the bonus points, gave him a winning length of 187 cm. Graham Lea came second with three species for 152 cm, and in third place was Phil Ord who amassed 151 cm also from three species. 


With a dogfish of 59 cm Graham also had the longest fish. Paul Bonner caught only whiting, but among his bag of fish was one of 13 cm to earn him the smallest fish. 


See the table below for the remaining results and the Points Table for the current league standings. Thank you to all who took part.

The Gun 07/09/25

Based on bag length, calculated from each angler’s longest three fish, with the addition of two zones and the seasonal shift from summer to winter fishing, this was always set to be an interesting encounter.


On the day, an abundance of species were recorded across all the anglers. Some produced good bags of fish, while others unfortunately failed to catch. Strap conger, dogfish, and silver eel all contributed to the overall lengths, alongside the usual Mersey fare.


After checking the cards, Phil Ord (zone B) emerged as the winner. A last cast silver eel helping him achieve a total of 130cm from his longest 3 fish. Mike Flanagan (zone A) secured second having 122cm. Paul Bonner (zone B) was third and Jim Morris (zone A) fourth. Phil and Mike also shared the longest flat fish category, both having a fish of 39cm. Amongst Jim Morris's catch was a whiting of 12cm  to give him the shortest fish.

Blue Bridge 31/08/25

This match was based on the total bag length, made up of each angler’s longest five fish. Up to two eel could contribute to this total, measuring either 30cm or 50cm, but they did not count in the longest or shortest fish categories.


Fish were caught from the start and throughout, with some good-sized flounder making an appearance. Eel also added to the catches, but not in the numbers expected. Despite a recent match on this venue producing good numbers of bass, only two were recorded this time. There were varying degrees of success: while some anglers failed to record any fish, others managed good bags to build their totals.


After the results were checked and verified, the winner was Phil Ord, whose best five fish accumulated a total of 161cm. Bill Lindfield took second place, with Steve Bonner in third. The longest fish prize went to John Wood for a flounder of 43cm. There was a three-way tie for the shortest fish, with Paul Bonner, Phil Simpson, and Roy Watterson all recording 14cm flounder.


 Thank you to all who took part.




Kinglake 27/07/25

 

It was decided on this occasion to run the encounter as a total-length match with no size limits, allowing anything and everything to count towards each angler’s total bag length.


While the fishing wasn’t spectacular, enough species were caught to make for an interesting match. Although, once again - apart from several exceptions - it was mainly small fish that influenced the results.


With fish being landed consistently throughout the event, it was, as ever, a wait until the conclusion before the winners could be confirmed. 


That said, and with the cards checked, it was Dave Evans who emerged as the clear winner with a total of 305 cm. In second place was guest angler Joe Perry  having 209 cm, whilst third place went to Peter James with 206 cm.


Phil Ord's bag included a smooth hound of 54 cm, earning him the longest fish, while a 10 cm whiting gave Nigel Conlon the shortest.


 Thank you to all who took part.

Tobin Street 29/06/25


The fishing started well, with several anglers recording fish within the first 30 minutes, offering optimism for a good session. 


However, after an initial period of activity, the fishing petered out, and despite the best efforts of all concerned, the match became a real scratchy affair, culminating in over half of the anglers failing to record any fish.


Based on points awarded for different species of fish, plus bonus points for additional species, a check of the cards at the conclusion brought out the winners.


In first place was Dave Ostler, and with a 47cm ray amongst his catch he also took the longest fish. Steve Bonner was second plus, he had the shortest fish. Bill Lindfield, at his first outing for eighteen months took third place.  See the points table for current league positions.


Thank you to all who took part.
