NAC Report Salthouse Monday 28th October 2019

27 anglers arrived at Salthouse, with tonights match being a length only match it was decided to have two sections spreading the prize table a bit more, fishing to size limits pegging was left and right of the main drive.

Weather conditions were favorable and dry compared to previous weeks with a slight sea running we all hoped for the bass to play ball, and hopefully get into plenty of the winter species. It soon became apparant that as the tide ebbed there wasn’t much of a tide pull and the sizeable fish were scarce in numbers, with many catching undersized bass,dabs, whiting etc.

14 anglers were in section A to the left and out of these only 5 managed to find a sizeable fish, winning the section with 3 fish for 71cm was Dave Mathers, and second place went to Russell Taylor with 2 fish for 46cm. Section B had 13 anglers and out of these 7 caught ,with the overall winner removed from section results as is the norm, this gave Ian Childerhouse the section win with 2 fish for 67cm, and 2nd place went to Richard Hipperson with 65cm.

Overall winner and first time on the podium spot was Chris Roberts with 5 fish for 126cm, 2nd place went to Dave Mathers with 71cm and 3rd place went to Ian Childerhouse with 67cm.

Heaviest flat of the night went to Leon Smith with a 33cm flounder and heaviest round was shared between Richard Hipperson and Ian Childerhouse both with a 42cm bass. From 27 anglers only 12 managed to find the sizeable fish with 25 being caught, well done to all who fished.

NAC Report 14th October Sheringham

18 anglers attended the latest winter league match at Sheringham, a calm evening with a forecast for light rain, as some wanted to fish the promenade and some the shingle past the lifeboat station, it was decided to make this match a rover as long as you were pegged next to another angler for recording catches. As the match progressed it was difficult to gauge how everyone was doing being so spread out but as the results came in another good night was recorded. 33 sizeable fish were carded, again 6 anglers blanked but the 12 who did card had mixed bags with 17 bass, 7 flounders a few pout ,rockling,whiting and another cracking sole at 40cm. Top rod on the night was John Catchpole with 4 fish for 5lb 10 1/3oz 3 bass all over 40cm and a nice flounder at 31cm, 2nd place went to Nigel Spencer with 3 bass for 5lb 4 oz and final podium spot went to Andrew Bunn with 4 fish for 5lb 2 1/3oz, heaviest round was shared between the top 3 all with a bass of 46cm, heaviest flatfish was that cracking 40cm sole which fell to Nick Austen on his first ever sea angling trip. All in all a very enjoyable evening showing that the bass are still here in numbers and with te winter species starting to show it could be a great season, well done to all.
