 Hi Guys 

It is with the deepest regrets that I have to put this on the blog..

Paul Bowyer - Sausage passed away today. I for one will miss Paul he was a gentleman in every manner I have some fond memories with Paul as everyone that knew him will have the same. 

As a club we have his family in our thoughts at the painful time. 

Rest in peace Paul we will miss you buddy. 

Trinity Woodlands 19.05.24

 Trinity Woodlands 

Didn’t do this one as I had to work, so a lite sort of blog.. 

It was nice to see the weights improving Jamie Case stole the show with a impressive weight & a touching comment he made on the internal HLS Wats App Blog thanking all the members that wished him well on his first win. Absolutely brilliant 😁👍🏻💪🎣 

Kingy never out of the frame & Mark C to follow. 

Also nice to see the Silver weights getting better. 

Well done to those Anglers.. 

I’m there in two weeks I think I got a 2 dayer so hopefully I’ll be able to snare a few. 

I had my first pairs match of the the series with the Watchet Club Saturday on Dunwear Senior I was really pleased me & Paul made second just thought I’d put that up just to make the write up a little longer.

Have a good week guys the weather getting warmer & hopefully all spawning is over & done with, look forward to catching up on the next 😁🎣

Sedges Canal 12.05.24

 Sedges Canal 

Last minute booking on & wow I’m glad I did it was a really enjoyable day tbf.. 

Met in the cafe as usual then on to the draw that gave me peg 60, this was the 3rd time for me on this canal & I quite enjoy it. 

On my left was George on my right Phil Dodd nice company for the day across I had Beardsy then Rob Dodd so plenty to watch & see what’s going on ? 

It was always going to be tuff going spawning fish everywhere not ideal but it was what it is-so straight across about a foot off - a track rig & a edge rig & a couple of shallow rigs, George was straight into a nice bream & cracking on with the silvers & Phil D was on the traditional wag, Beardsy was loosing foul hookers down the edge & Rob was picking up fish as usual. I was getting small carp steadily but they were small. I backed off the spawning fish to try & build a swim of feeding fish that seemed to be working. I was rotating with this & the track whilst dribbling feed in the margin. 

Everything was going well & getting better until doom struck some how my rig weak’nd & a carp finished it I went straight to the track rig & altered it to more a less the same but never is ??? That was that line done the wind picked up & then it was to hard across. The margin looked good plenty of fish showing but nothing apart from two small carp, George was steadily catching skimmers on & off then a big tench that he lost 😡 he was absolutely gutted & banged on about it for ages & more 🤪🤪

Well done to everyone on a hard but enjoyable day. 

A bit of an unusual weekend this week I’ve got my first pairs match of the season & it’s at Dunwear Saturday on the main lake then hopefully Trinity Sunday. 

Have a good week see you on the next 😁🎣

 Sorry it’s gone up so late but totally forgot about it, tbf I wouldn’t think there’s much to write about as I fished it on the Saturday with the Watchet Guys.

We had the roadside bank & Vic had his open on the other bank, the lake was nearly full & it fished rock hard, however, I did manage 4th on the Silvers with 6.7.. 

Vic’s open carried on after we left but they were also struggling Vic had 2 Carp Alvin Jones was still on 1 so that says it all. 

Tight lines I’ll see you all soon not fishing this weekend as the wife is away with work so I’m dog sitting, maybe not such a bad thing with the heat there bound to be thinking if not spawning
