Dillington Pond – Xmas Fayre – 6th December 2015
The weather was horrendous yesterday with really strong winds as Storm Desmond gave the country a battering, so Rob decided to put us all on the pond today rather than have us spread out all over the river if the weather was going to be grim again. I got to the pub for the draw and as always this match was well attended …
Mark Hoye Interview
My latest interview is with Mark Hoye, Operations Director of exciting new bait firm, SSP Baits.

River Isle – Royal Oak Winter League 4 – 29th November 2015
Very strong winds were forecast for today and it was sounding like we could be in for a very unpleasant day weather wise.

Stu Alford came straight over and paid …

River Isle – V.E.S. Precision League 3 – 22nd November 2015
We had some horrible weather on Saturday, with strong winds and much colder temperatures it was looking like winter had finally arrived. The fact I had to defrost the car this morning seemed to confirm it although thankfully the wind had dropped. I got to the pub fairly early and there was a decent turnout of eleven and a quick look at …
Dillington Pond – Royal Oak Winter League 3 – 15th November 2015
With more rain towards the end of the week, we were back out the pond for this match and there was another good turnout including Tackleuk’s Ashley Tomkins who was joining us for the first time this series. Rob announced the draw and I fancied a peg on the roadside and when I had the last peg in the hat which was number …
Dillington Pond – 8th November 2015
With loads of rain on Friday and Saturday morning, the river was bank high and unfishable so we were out the pond today and after last weeks disaster it would be nice just to put some fish in the net. Today was supposed to be a V.E.S. Precision match but Rob said it would be rescheduled to one of the free dates where hopefully …
River Isle – 1st November 2015
With no scheduled league matches this week we decided to have a knock up and also use it as a chance to have a look at some other stretches of the river. There had been a lot of rain earlier in the week and the river was unfishable on Thursday but with no more of the wet stuff, the river should be …
River Isle – V.E.S. Precision League 2 – 25th October 2015
I got to the pub for the draw early and there seems to be more and more cars outside every week! We were up to 15 anglers this week, which is great to see, Paul Homewood, Bob Hammond and the Langport invader, Baz Morgan, were joining us today. Rob had pegged Redbridge, Isle Brewers and Hambridge with five pegs on each stretch. …
