Dillington Pond – V.E.S. Precision League 6 – 24th January 2016
With Steve and Cindy from the Oak away this weekend we decided to meet at Coxes to do the draw, I had to meet Ash first as he didn’t know where that was (which shows how often he fishes the river!). Most of the others were already there and looking at the river I thought it looked perfect with a nice tinge …

When it was …

Hebditch’s Pond – 3rd January 2016
A New Year and a new venue! Harry Hebditch started fishing our matches a few months back and he has an irrigation pond on the farm which he holds occasional charity matches on and with nothing in the club book for this weekend we asked him if we could fish it and he very kindly agreed. He also suggested we pop out and had …
