Sunday 13 December 2016 was unusually mild but very wet. A grizzly, drizzly morning met the anglers that fished this third round of our Winter League series and the last before Christmas. Wigmore Lakes was the venue and although practice had been on very windy days previously, this match was fished in comparative calm. Light levels were low; so much so that we really needed floodlights towards the end of the match! Anyway, that well-practised man, Ken Arnold, wiped the floor with the rest of us once again and weighed in an impressive 4 carp net for 26 Lbs 10 Ozs taken on the waggler, to take first place. Second was Gordon Bradley with a 2 carp catch of 15 Lbs 9 Ozs taken on method feeder and third was Pat Atkins with 15 Lbs 6 Ozs of mainly skimmers taken on pole/waggler. This now means that Ken is out in front with a maximum 30 points from 3 matches; second is still Brian Tinman with 18 and third is Bob Smith with 15. There are 4 matches to go and the next one will be on Springlea pools on 24 January 2016 - Draw at 0845 Hrs - please note!
