Club News July 2007
CLUB NEWS…
It has been another good year for the club, with a lot of new members joining the club. The new web site is up and running now keeping new and old members up to date with reports, what’s going on around the waters, info on the club match’s and working parties etc. You can visit us at www.waltonians.co.uk. Also for members that don’t know the club stocked four new 20Ib carp into Teggs Nose in Jan of this year.
WHAT’S GOING ON?…
The club has been doing quite a lot of work on Herons Pool in the closed season, replacing old stages and removing snags. Work will continue throughout the season, making this a very nice water to fish. Remember this water can be night fished with a night permit at a cost of £5.00. Why not come along to a club meeting at the Oxfford Pub on Oxfford Road in Macclesfield. The meeting is held on the first Thursday of every month at 8pm, all members new and old are very welcome.
CATCH REPORTS…
The new carp have settled into Teggs Nose with all four fish having gained weight. The biggest being the fish known as ‘THE PIG’ which has been out at 25.08 lbs this fish was stocked at 22.06lbs in January of this year and with the winter feeding program having being carried out the original fish have been putting weight on too. With 3 original 20’s being caught so far this year, and Bream over 6lbs being caught on a regular basis. Can members who catch any Carp over 16lb and Bream over 6lb please contact Steve The Head Bailiff with details of their catch and pictures where possible. Contact Steve on 07881818486 or email your pictures to gallery@waltonians.co.uk
BALIFFS REPORT…
As you may have noticed we have removed the rubbish bins from Teggs Nose because of the amount of rubbish being left at the water, so can I please ask all members to take all rubbish home with you including cigarette ends and not to bring any tins on to any club waters with them. Also can I remind members to have there permit with them, filled in and a picture of themselves inside at all times. Any member fishing for carp to always have a large landing net and unhooking mat with them when fishing.
