Results for 28th February
The excitement mounts as we enter
the final round of the Milo Masters Winter League. On the day three regular
faces did the biz, but consistency was the real name of the game and no one
did that better than the Bobby Jarvis & Paul Law partnership, with Dave Massey
taking individual top honours. Take a well-deserved bow chaps. Well done to
everyone that took part and big thanks, once again, to our sponsors Milo.
1st Colin Bartlett Lake John
Peg 2
30-08-0 xpts
On the pole all day, Starting long with the tried and tested maggot over
groundbait, switching inside around midday to catch around 10lb of rudd along
the rushes. Lucky for you lot that I’m a modest chap.
2nd Gary Miller VDE Maver Image
Peg 8
26-04-0
Gary did what he does best, fished a very tidy match, although he admitted
to me afterwards that he shouldn’t have spent so much time on the pellet. Once
that was sorted he started to motor, again maggot over groundbait, but if
truth was known there was only ever going to be one daddy today.
3rd Alec Roberts Middy/Lake John
Peg 12
23-14-0
Another all pole attack, Al set up two lines long and quickly found
skimmers and bonus bream ready to scoff his pellet offerings. As the weather
will start to warm, Mr Middy will once again be one of the names to beat.

Results for 21st February 2010
With the
finishing line in sight, this was the penultimate round in the Milo Masters,
but it super Al Spooner who showed us all a clean pair of heals, bagging 50lb
of winter carp and doubling the nearest weight.
1st Al
Spooner Lake John Peg 34 70-04-0
Al knew he had drawn one of the best feeder pegs on the lake
and wasted no time, five 10lb+ carp fell to his corn and groundbait feeder,
two rod lengths off the island. Then, being the shrewd fella that he is, Al
switched to the pole to close out the match in style with a nice
backup of skimmers. Well done pal.
2nd
Simon Wilsmore Milo/D&A Tackle Peg
33 35-04-0
With the leader out of sight, Milo’s top man proceeded to give
the rest off us a spanking. Long pole with maggot over groundbait for silvers
galore with the odd bonus fish down the edge.
3rd
Jeff Lockwood Lee Angling Centre Peg
13 25-00-0
Another half decent draw, Jeff has fished steady all day.
Skimmers on long pole.
4th Bob Jarvis Lake John Peg 9 23-02-0
Barry Oliver Maver-Image 97pts
Dave Massey Terrapins 96pts
Paul Law Trabucco South East 94pts
Results for 31st January 2010
Round 4 of 6 and the top three are neck and neck, as the Clark brothers show
everyone else what its all about when it comes to catching a few fish...
1st. Scott Clark,Simpsons-Angling Direct,
peg 10
22-08-0 26pts
Last week was a practice round and brother Darren took the glory so there fishing chat driving to and from the venue is paying off as Scotty dropped
his feeder into the open margins of the island, it was a slow start for most but Scott just kept on the tip and even managed a bonus 5lb carp which he
tried to claim 10lb for but that was never going to happen and we all know why dont we, because.............

2nd. Gary Miller, VDE-Maver-Image,
peg 29
22-02-0 25pts
Miller man back from his honeymoon with the new Mrs Miller and proceeds to
give us all a fishing lesson just like he was before he was a single man, again it was mostly tip work for Gary with a couple of maggots to the hook,
skimmers with the odd big en...
3rd. Chris Vandervlit, Maver-Image-Bowlers,
peg 7
18-02-0 24pts
Still winning at the draw bag he wouldn't do this well if someone else drew
for him, another end peg how does he do it, only joking Chris enjoy that pound I intend to get it back don't worry, maggot over loose ground bait
done the trick again, standing in for Danny Coss this week means there are a whole load of points on the board for team Coss.

More ICE
whats going on... We are a round of the league missing at the moment thanks to
the continued bad weather but this round is to be staged on 21st Feb the week
before the final
1st. Steve Thorn, Terrapins,
peg 3 21-12-0
= 26pts
Steve had a great start to the match as everyone else had ice to clear
Steve took full advantage of the spare time offered to him as the start was
put back 30 minutes, with a yorkie bar in one hand and an eyebrow grooming kit
in the other he looked gorgeous by the time the whistle blew, and his first
put in was a small carp on the long pole Steve switched his hook bait from
pellet to maggot to keep the fish interested and the peg just got better as
the day went on skimmers and bream were soon in the peg feeding and it made it
almost impossible for Steve to get stuck into his second yorkie bar let alone
light a fag, but your gonna have to keep that tongue under control every time
you catch a fish Thorny.
2nd. Keith Needham, Harrow Postals,
peg 31 15-12-0 =
25pts
Great to see Keith in the frame and after the match he was telling me that
this result has come off the back of his time spent sitting next to mr. Middy
last week, "I learnt a lot" he said, well I for one am pleased for you mate,
blessed with the fact there was no ice in his peg this meant the peg could be
fished to its fullest which is important in these conditions, maggot and
ground bait at 14m.
3rd. Steve Clark, Maver-Image,
peg 8
13-10-0 = non league
Ma Larky Clarky drew yet another peg with no ice, can you see the pattern
that's forming now no ice means loads of fish

Round two of the
winter League and again its ice breakers at the ready as we
endure another ice over, its all getting a bit boring now...
1st. Barry Oliver,
Maver-Image, peg 14 28-14-0
= 26pts
One hour of breaking ice to 13m before Barry could wet his line and when he
did the results considering the weather were amazing skimmers and bonus 3lb
bream were just on the edge of the ice and couldn't resist the maggot and
ground bait temptation, this was by far the warmest bank and conditions just
got better as the day went on, a great days sport from the big man making
this 26pts to add to his second place on the first round which earn him
25pts, proving he is the man to beat in this league.
2nd.
Colin Bartlett, Lake John-J+B Tackle, peg 10 13-00-0
= 25pts
A Very pleasing draw only a little bit of ice in the peg so a quick bit of
breaking out and then it was getting on with the job of getting a bite and
with everything crossed and an hour into the match the bites started to
slowly develop, maggot to the hook and a little bit of ground bait produced
a few bites but only small fish were to had no complaints from me, me and my
partner need the points we can get
3rd.
Micky Wallis, Turbertini, peg 33 11-3-0
= 24pts
Mick has had to wait until the last 30 minutes of the match before he got a
bite and when he did his six fish topped the scales 11lb, bream to maggot on
a very, very cold peg
4th.
Paul Law, Trabucco South East, peg 36 9-00-0
= 23pts

Final Results for Sunday 8th March 2009
That's your lot
its all over the Milo masters 2009 has now concluded and from all of us at
Lake John we would like to thank everyone that took part this year...
I would like to thank Milo man Simon Willsmore again this year for his
continued support, thanks mate....
25 Fished
1st. Gordon Bullock, Terrapins,
peg 32 35-06-0
About time Gordy and in true Terrapins style he saves the best till last,
and he has just worked out how to catch fish on the pellet, Gordon told me on
the phone that's it easy once you learn how to make them sink.... this caster
master has finally started to fish like Mr. Amos, skimmers and tench were
successfully lured to the 4mm expander pellet down the inside margin and short
due to the extreme weather conditions again proving that winter is still with
us, a tidy victory from the Boss of the newly founded Redbridge Community
Lakes which will be on the match scene next spring.
2nd. Scott Clark, Simpsons of Turnford,
peg 33 30-08-0
The big man has had a good league again this year not a patch on last year
when he was the 2008 champion so he has his own high standard to maintain and
he has been in the top half all series, he probably had the worst of the
weather today as the wind just kept battering into him face on all match and
he just kept on doing his thing fishing the much shorter pole than usual again
due to the awful strong winds and driving rain, eight tench were hooked and
netted the biggest being close to 6lb as well as a bag of silvers red maggot
and micro pellet.
3rd. Dean Hunt, Wickford Angling,
peg 37 30-00-0
B.T. Dean has supported the league since it began a few years ago and this
two hundred pound plus carp bagging man finally comes good just like last year
proving his skimmers tactics are in there they just don't come out that often,
I ve told you Dean you don't catch skimmers on black hydro, loads of nut money
for Dean'o and it looks like we will see you again next year pal, 4mm expander
short at 6m.

Results for Sunday 1st March 2009.
Next week is the
final round of the entire Milo Masters series and lets hope the weather
doesn't blot out the last leg as snow is forecast for mid week...
Next week 8th March is the final round chaps...
20 Fished
1st. Colin Bartlett, Lake John-J+B Tackle,
peg 38 38-08-0
The last number in the bag as usual and not a great start the ground bait
was left unsealed and the micro pellet and 4mm expander put to work two lines
long at 10 o'clock and 2 o'clock 13.5m and it was the left hand line that was
the most productive, also one line at 7m pellet as well this feed line only
produced four fish and as the wind blew the colour of the float kept
disappearing into the colour of the back ground which made things difficult
but we over come it, skimmers and bream with a bonus tench and a crusian carp
made the elastic work out, the only reason I done any good was because Roberts
and Amos weren't here...
2nd. Mick Scanlan, Oakwood Angling,
peg 27 31-08-0
Mick had a busy match keeping the bites coming most of the match on a fair
peg, pellet over pellet a bit of micro and a few expander skimmers were
plentiful and Mick also snared a bonus tench, the tench seem to be having a
real go at the moment lets hope that the predicted snow fall on Tuesday night
does not happen and bingo the last round...
3rd. Jeff Lockwood, Lee Angling Centre,
peg 33 26-08-0
A very consistent new comer to the winter league Jeff has only had one
blow out all series and a nice bloke, he has draw bag ability skills as well
as he plucked 33 out of the bag a smile appeared on his face, this is a great
winter peg and always worthy of a place in the top six as Jeff proved, pellet
on all lines and the trick at the moment is not to over feed but do not under
feed either not easy!

1st. Alec
Roberts, Middy,
peg 9 39-00-0
A victory last week boosted Alec's points into 6th place and with a win
this week he moves up again to 5th place and pellet is king at the moment long
pole at 14m and 4mm expander pellet to the hook and loose feeding 4mm
expanders as well not a micro pellet in sight which is the method that worked
in the winter league last year, the feed is all important and Al's not putting
in much at all just holding back waiting for the fish to feed and rest a very
simple tactic that is working a treat, an honest bag of skimmers, bream and
one tench for good luck.
2nd. Martin Amos, Bedwell Fisheries,
peg 34 37-00-0
When your having a run of good luck you really are unstoppable and Martin
is having it all his own way, six out of six wins on the bottom lake and top
three every match on the top lake, Amos's luck continued today as the clock
struck 1pm a 25lb carp was hooked and 30minutes later netted for a bonus 10lb,
before the carp skimmers were in plentiful supply and the reality is the carp
has probably cost Martin the match as the long pole and 4mm expander line
didn't return to the same prolific form.
3rd. Colin Bartlett, Lake John-J+B Tackle,
peg 36 27-12-0
If you cant beat em join em, 4mm expander pellet at 14m kept me busy and
all my efforts were to help my mate Bisto Bob Jarvis accumulate some good
points as I was drawn as a replacement for his absent partner Keith Needham,
no carp for me but a busy day all the same.

25 Fished
1st. Alec Roberts, Middy,
peg 35 18-00-0
The weights are on the up at last as the last of the cold weather is
supposed to be behind us now, but this match is as close as you could ever
want it to be with only 1lb separating the top three anglers, Mr. Middy has
laid down his Tylers Common cap and put on his Lake John cap and takes his
first win of the year by the skin of his teeth, and in with his victory he
earns another 50p from me as our side bet continues each week, Alec had drawn
the peg that Stuart Bracey came second on just a few days earlier and decided
to feed the 16m line and wait for his fish to arrive, micro pellet loose fed
and 4mm expander to the hook for a decent bag of silvers, and a whole bunch of
points for the leader board, Al's partner Den Jarvis was unable to attend due
to family issue's so we nominated half Alec's weight to fill in for the league
points as there were no spare anglers on the day to fish in Den's place.
2nd. Attila Szekeres, J+B Tackle-Preston,
peg 33 17-14-0
This Attila's second 2nd placing in a row, a run of form that has come a
little to late for the league results but he is taking home the bacon
individually ground bait and maggot/pinky to the hook fishing for bites, roach
and skimmers.
3rd. Darren Clark, Simpsons of Turnford,
peg 26 17-00-0
Darren has had a great match on a non form peg and the maggot and ground
bait trick seemed to be the way to get the fish on the feed early taking net
skimmers almost from the off, two lines long 10 o'clock and 2 o'clock but it
was only one of these that produced fish, a very respectable days Dangle-ing
for Mr. Clarke.

This was the hardest match of all time and it was a credit to all those that suffered and sat through it, and after five hours of a cruel wind, and snow flurries a champ was declared and his name............... Scott Clark, 5lb 2oz's wow this was tuff...

My partner last
year in the series and a true champ on the day, with the wind in his face all

1st. Scott Clark, Simpsons of Turnford,
peg 31 5-02-0
Scott like the rest of the anglers just sat and waited for the fish to feed
and it seemed for ever in these Arctic conditions but this was always going to
be a match of chance and that is exactly what it was, maggot to the hook
waiting for a bit from anything in the peg mad enough to want to feed Scott
had a hour around the midway mark when a few fish arrived, and every ones
dream a bonus bream of 2lb was suckered into the temptation of a single red
maggot on a size 20 hook," nice and easy does it big man" I shouted just a few
pegs away, as he shipped his pole back in slow motion, well done champ.
2nd. Attila
Szekeres, J+B Tackle-Preston,
peg 36 5-00-0
Fish-o-mania qualifier Attila dug in deep to scratch his way into the
frame on this evil day for angling, because of the strong side wind Attila was
limited to fishing the short pole for fear the wind would break the long pole,
60 roach on pinky at 6m.
3rd. Martin Amos, Bedwell Fisheries,
peg 26 4-12-0
Martin has been on form the whole of the new year and this is a typical
day for a man with a bit of form his draw wasn't particularly good and his
pellet approach was going nowhere so a maggot was hooked and in the last hour
Martin managed to save his shame and got himself well out of jail, a 2lb bonus
perch was a great help....

It was a slow start with almost nothing in the net in the first hour but
Martin still holds a lot of faith in the pellet even though there was a heavy
down pour of cold rainwater all last night, skimmers came along slowly and
then there were a few net skimmers to follow all on the long pole at
14m........ more than he thought.....
2nd. Ken Farrell, Browning-Lake John,

Ken Waggled it again from one of his favourite pegs pellet to the hook at
25m and a net busting bag of ice cold silvers for Ken.
3rd. Steve Thorne, Terrapins,
peg 39 23-02-0
I am surprised he managed to catch this many fish he is normally feasting

This icy Sunday we
hosted the beginning of the 2009 winter league and with a full attendance it
was only the weather that was going to upset the first round of the Milo
masters...
The morning of ice breaking soon over and it was down to the business of
drawing the pairs, there are 13 pairs this year and this means that the points
will be awarded as follows 26 points for a win and 1 point for last place in
the event of a draw on points at any time during the league there will be a
count back on weight to resolve any close decisions, the pairs points will be
calculated and added together and the pair with the most points become the
champs for 2009..........good luck all!

1st. John Hunt, Brentwood Angling,
peg 36 19-02-0
This was only the second match this winter for Mr Hunt and already he has
found his groove, simple tactics on this ice covered lake were the order of
the day and it was a case of less is more as John introduced very little feed
all match, so ground to start and single maggot to the hook was all it took to
net a few skimmers and a couple small bream, long pole to the edge of the ice.
2nd. Jeff Lockwood, Lee Angling Centre,
peg 3 18-10-0
Jeff enjoyed an early lead and probably had the match in the bag up until
the last hour when John Hunt started to net the bigger fish and just pipped
Jeff to the top spot, pellet to the hook and little and often as he fed the
long pole line net skimmers and in his third put in a 4lb bream was a very
useful bite indeed.

It has taken Mr. Alan
Spooner this long to nab a victory but at least he can hold his head up and
between him and his partner Ken Farrell they bag a massive 38 points on the
day, this is the biggest points total all series

Al on form on the bottom lake this winter, I think he won this match as well,
Alan's back...

1st. Alan Spooner, Old Hatfield Angling
peg 39
Al about time mate, you leave it until the end of the series to sort it
out, but this good draw also deserved a bit of luck with a great big carp
netted mid match and then head down alan proceeded to bag up on the skimmers
and bream in front of him on the pellet and long pole, so the hard work came
through and Alan would like me to remind you that all the stars were out this
week and he beat them all, well done Alan, Bisto Bob will be pleased with you
this week.
2nd. Chris Vandervliet, Van Den Eynde-Bromages
peg 12 33-06-0
Truly on form at the moment catching fish in every peg he draw's so well
done again another second and if only you were in the winter league you would
probably be winning but your not are ya, Aaaaaaarh still there is always next
year, oh I also had to give Chris another quid which means I am now down 8-1
its starting to give me the hump but I just keep reminding myself that he used
to be good enough to fish for Essex, but that was a long time ago aye mate...
3rd. Len Goulding, Simpsons of Turnford
peg 16 28-08-0
Lenny makes an appearance this week and with a random draw replaced the
Terrapin Micky Herbert for this week only as a stand in and really does the
business for his temporary team mate Bob Jarvis gathering a massive 19pts on
the day on a peg which has not done too much in the past few weeks, maggot
produced the bites and they came in spell's but it was a bonus carp that
really saved the day in the form of a 10lb bonus catch and release.

Its Miller's time and this is

a massive 99lb of carp on the tip.

2lb 12oz perch from peg 13,
Its ok everyone just after this picture was taken Paul managed to smile.

1st. Gary
Miller, Van Den Eynde
peg 30
45-04-0
Gary planned an attack short but the fish didn't seem to be on that line
until later on in the match, so the long pole with maggot over ground bait
catching skimmers and roach just keeping nice and busy, a look on the short
line at 7m was full on for the last hour with bream up to 4lb and other net
fish constantly, its probably fair to say that the match was won in the last
hour, well done Gary you am the man!!
2nd. Martin Amos, Elite baits-Old Hatfield Angling
peg 33
38-04-0
The Amos took off like a champion athlete catching down the edge on
pellet, four carp between 2lb and 5lb, and a big'en for the mandatory 10lb,
but the peg slowed down in the latter stages and this has cost Martin the
match as all he could do was watch the Miller man bagging a few pegs away down
the lake, Martin's approach was a carp attack and for the first match this
winter this was nearly a carp victory.
3rd. Chris Vandervliet, Van Den Eynde
peg 36
27-04-0
Chris is still showing form, and with this kind of form he would have been
a real contender in the winter league but he jumped ship and didn't join us I
bet he is regretting this now, Starting on the feeder Chris winkled out a few
bites and there was a slow building of weight quiet quickly on a crumb feeder
and maggot to the hook, the pole line was then ready for a look and there were
fish on both the long and short lines but the gusty wind made fishing
the pole nearly impossible, that's another quid he's won, 7-2 now I better
buck my idea's up.

1st. Ken
Farrell, Browning-Lake John
peg 32 31-10-0
Not been on the fish of late but this man can catch those big fish and
make them count, well he fished his peg long down the edge and with sweetcorn
to the hook had decided to sit it out for the big ens well the carp down there
weren't massive but he bagged them all the same, five carp between 3lb and 7lb
and a few silver as well helped pip the Essex Boys, 20 points well done Ken.
2nd. Chris Vandervliet, Van Den Eynde-Bromages
peg 39 31-04-0
Skimmers on the short line with maggot to the hook and plenty of
groundbait and micro pellet loose fed at 7m, this kept Chris busy most of the
match and on a sell out match the first and second spot couldn't have been any
closer, Chris also had another pound off me again, I know that he would want
me to let you all know, I'II be back Mr.Chris.
3rd. Gary Miller, Van Den Eynde
peg 3 24-04-0
Gary has sat next to the Milo boss and Winter league sponsor and had his
trousers off but only just as it was less than a pound that separated them,
maggot down the edge and then out long on the 13m line for skimmers.

Gary does the business again but you should save those victory's for the weeks that count me old mate...
23 fished
1st. Gary Miller, Van Den Eynde
peg 39 36-06-0
Catching on the long pole and nicking fish off the feed is Gary's style
and with two lines long at 13m about 7m apart this give s the fish enough
space to stay in the peg without spooking too far from the hook bait, skimmers
to start and if you are doing it right the bigger fish lead onto the feed for
a proper bag of bites.

The wind and rain were
forecast but only the wind arrived thank god, this made the tried and tested
pole line almost unbearable at full stick, this was reflection in the overall
results, but there are still a few bright stars coming through the ranks and
young Gary Manoli lands a 1lb 12oz roach to boost his total...

Gary and his bonus 1lb 12oz roach,
we all thought it was a tench with the amount of elastic out.
27 fished
1st.
Alan Hart, Lake John
peg 16 19-08-0
A good peg on a windy day because it can offer a little bit of shelter
from the gusting breeze, but you have still got to catch em and catch em "Al"
did, worm and pellet were the choice of hook baits and switching between the
two seemed to find the better fish including four tench to 3lb and a decent
bream of nearly 3lb, a bed of ground bait was put down at the start and
topping up the feed during the match kept the fish on the bait ready for the
ambush, not loads of fish today but just enough for papa Hart...
2nd. Dean Hunt, Terrapins
peg 30 19-00-0
Dean is one of those positive anglers and today was the sort of day that
would just suit him, the wind was on his back and pole presentation was
exceptional all things considered, but his first stroke of luck came to an
early 7lb carp on the feeder, from then on it was always going to be a bit
easier because all the hard work was done now it was on the pole line and
pellet for a few more bites and just enough silver fish to take second place.
3rd. Chris Vandervliet, Van Den Eynde
peg 7 16-14-0
Taking my pound again for yet another week Chris is starting to enjoy the
lake and the fishing with a great start on the feeder catching skimmers and
roach he continued this method for about two hours of the match before
switching to the pole and maggot and being the old pro that he is, he put a
few more fish together, but this week its all about league points and Mr.
Chris aint in the league so the pound this week is very shallow.

Results for Sunday 6th January 2008
This is the first
weekend of the New Year 2008, and a practice week as we approach the halfway
mark in the third round next week. The anglers and the pegs are starting to
change in performance...
So here are the pairs named and shamed:
Tony Pennycook - Gary Miller
Gary Manoli - Gordon Bullock
Darren Clark - Martin Amos Chris Vandervliet stands in
for Darren this week only
Mick Herbert - Bob Jarvis Alan
Hart stands in for Mick this week only
Alan Spooner - Ken Farrell
Dave Massey - Steve Thorn
Paul Reddy - Steve Sams
Colin Tasker - Dean Hunt Matt Hart
stands in for Colin this week only
Scott Clark - Colin Bartlett
Dennis Jarvis - Graham Hyde
This is the sort of result
you need league round Mr Miller not on a practice week, amateur! hopefully he
hasn't used all his luck up this week and has a howler in the third round and
his partner looks to be the most improved over the series so this partnership
has potential...
25 fished
1st. Gary Miller, Van Den Eynde
peg 10 21-12-0
This was a real slow and low scoring event for some reason the fish had
just gone into shut down mode and everyone on the lake was stuggling to get a
bite let alone catch, Gary probably had 3lb by the 12 o'clock mark and with no
sign of a bonus fish in the peg but by using red maggot to the hook this is a
sure way of getting a bite at least and true to form the better fish made a
show allbeit for a brief moment, but on a day like this a couple of fish would
be enough, long pole skimmers and roach with three 3 pounders in the last 30
minutes.
2nd. Simon Wilsmore, Milo-D+A Tackle
peg 37 18-00-0
Well Simon will mind me telling you that if it wasn't for a jammy carp on
the tip this 18lb would have looked a bit different, but the 10lb bonus carp
was landed and the weight included to the overall net of silvers. This could
have been anyone's match with a bonus fish landed as Mr Wilsmore proved and a
not so well deserved 2nd place and a new year payout. A little look on the
feeder but long pole with maggot and pinky to the hook.
3rd. Martin Amos, Elite Baits-Old Hatfield Angling
peg 34 17-10-0
Another solid performance from the Amos on his tried and tested pellet
approach and with a decent bag of skimmers on the long pole, Martin is also a
real contender in the league race and his partner is net a few fish as well so
at this early stage its still any bodies title, Martin only needed a bonus
fish amongst his net of blades to take first place but that's just how it goes
sometimes, still you won yesterday on the bottom lake.

Round two of the
Milo pairs and its too close to call as the points in the coming matches are
going to be crucial, and the pecking order is going to change from week to
week...
So here are the pairs named and shamed:
Tony Pennycook - Gary Miller
Gary Manoli - Gordon Bullock Dave George has been replaced by Gary Manoli for
the rest of the series
Darren Clark - Martin Amos, Chris Vandervliet stands in for Darren this week
only
Mick Herbert - Bob Jarvis, Alan Hart stands in for Mick this week only
Alan Spooner - Ken Farrell
Dave Massey - Steve Thorn
Paul Reddy - Steve Sams
Colin Tasker - Dean Hunt , Matt Hart stands in for Colin this week only
Scott Clark - Colin Bartlett
Dennis Jarvis - Graham Hyde
Amos finds form when it
counts and this being the second round of the winter league points are very
important and in the absence of his partner we drew for a reserve standing for
this week only and what a draw Chris Vandervleit who is also on form at the
moment...
25 fished
1st. Martin Amos, Elite Baits-Old Hatfield Angling
peg 41 38-10-0
Not been in best of form on this lake lately but like the true pro that he
is by hard work and sticking with it through good and bad it was only a matter
of time before he would be back on the top spot, and it has to be said that
when the pellet starts to produce fish again this man will always be a hard
man to beat after a shakey start and holding back on the feed until a pattern
had started to form Martin started to catch strong at both 13m and 9m these
lines started out as maggot and by the midway mark it was 4mm pellet all the
way, 3lb net bream were starting to cue up well done champ, don't make a habit
of this
2nd. Colin Bartlett, Lake John-J+B Tackle
peg 39 31-10-0
I drew this peg in the practice last week in the freezing fog so I was
quiet happy about having the last peg in the bag, a fairly good start on the
roach at 6m netting a 3oz fish every put on the caster but this was just my
way of allowing the long line to settle for the assault that was going to
happen after an hour or so of resting it, skimmers to the maggot to start but
then it was a quick change to the pellet on a 4x16 rig with 0.10 hook length
and an 18 hook, but this week I was out classed by the Amos on the next peg,
wait until next week...
3rd. Chris Vandervleit, Bromages-Van Den Eynde
peg 4 31-08-0
What can I say my hero Chris bets a quid with me every time we fish on the
same match and the rule is that its a fiver if we are drawn next to each other
well having had two quid of me in the last two matches this was a very
important match to me to keep him quiet, and 2oz's is just the sort of victory
to shut him up, The Essex boy was on the phone to me that evening telling me
how lucky I was, I told him I was in a restaurant spending his Alan Wicker and
the food had never tasted so good, Unlucky Chris you nearly done it, caster
short on the inner margins and maggot long at 13m over ground bait.

Another practice
match and this morning the lake was frozen solid again, this was never going
to be a high scoring event, Chris Vandervleit takes the crown with a near 20lb
on the scales....
1st. Chris Vandervleit, Bromages-Van Den Eynde
peg 32 19-04-0
Ice all over the lake up to 20 minutes before the match draw was to be
held, it was a lottery what pegs we would be able to use so I manned the boat
and began to break the ice so everyone had a fair chance of a days fishing one
hour of pre-match exercise meant that the match was on, Chris is back on form
and the draw has been kind again in the deep water is where you need to be and
this is probably one of the deepest pegs on the lake, single maggot and plenty
of groundbait got a few fish feeding in his peg, another pound he has won off
me, look after them Chris they will be coming back...
23 fished
2nd. Scott Clark, Simpsons of Turnford
peg 3 18-12-0

This man is my partner in the pairs and this is just the sort of practice
week you need to boost your moral, well done big man you looked like you had
everything very smooth and at one stage the fish were lined up one a bung,
maggot again for Scotty on the long pole 16m was never going to be a problem
for this larger than life character pictured above with a near 2lb roach,
fishing 16m he could very nearly cup his bait in from his own front garden in
Cuffley.
3rd. Gary Manoli, Fox Match
peg 34 18-00-0
Young Gary makes his first appearence on the lake since he done a feature
in the Southern Angler at the end of the summer, in which he managed to make
the front cover, long pole and maggot for this young ace skimmers and bream
again.

The Start of the
Milo Pairs and this was a low scoring event on a bitter cold day and with all
the mid week ice water melted into the lake this was always going to be a
challenging day on the bank...
So here are the pairs named and shamed:
Tony Pennycook - Gary Miller
Dave George - Gordon Bullock
Darren Clark - Martin Amos
Micky Herbert - Bob Jarvis
Alan Spooner - Ken Farrell
Dave Massey - Steve Thorn
Paul Reddy - Steve Sams
Colin Tasker - Dean Hunt
Scott Clark - Colin Bartlett
Dennis Jarvis - Graham Hyde
Van Den Eynde's Mr. Miller
takes the first place but he was chased all the way by Steve Sams on the next
peg...
23 fished
1st. Gary Miller, Van Den Eynde
peg 14 28-04-0
Gary started on the tip and probably left it too long before looking on
the long pole where he had all his action at 14m with maggot to the hook
mainly, pinky if it got really tough, but by steadily plugging away this was
just the ticket on the day, so keep busy as the ounce's soon become pounds,
skimmers, roach and perch...
2nd. Steve Sams, Lake John
peg 13 26-10-0
Steve had it all his own way early on in the match but you can't afford
any quiet spells and that is what has cost Steve the match, fishing the maggot
also at 7m there was a bag of bites for Steve on his long awaited return.
3rd. Colin Bartlett, Lake John-J+B Tackle
peg 16 20-10-0
Started well and mid match over done the feed and killed the peg silly
boy, skimmers and other silvers worm and pellet.

This was the final
practice week, and next week we get serious, so a final reminder to all, names
must be in for the first league match next week, this event will be in the
form of a pairs match on the top lake...
20 Fished
1st. Colin Bartlett, Lake John-J+B Tackle
peg 32 28-08-0
Well sorry chaps I am only keeping it simple and be very careful with the
feed less is best, no big bait bills honest 30 worm heads 1 pint of caster and
a bag of ground bait, the real trick is finding the fish and then keeping
them, you will start catching them off the feed but during the match they will
be onto of the feed and bingo you can really put a few fish together, skimmers
and bream all to a tip of worm, next week we do it all for real.
2nd. Steve Thorn, Simpson of Turnford
peg 41 18-04-0
Last week Steve admitted to doing it all wrong, wrong bait and to much
feed but after a few pointers from the regulars this was a different story
this week, worm to the hook and a bit of groundbait was the recipe for a match
winning performance, the only thing that kept the weight down was the ability
to present in the wind.
3rd. Chris Vanderflit, Bromages
peg 33 17-08-0
This is a proper winter peg with everything you could wish for, inner
margin features and a proven long pole peg in this weeks mid week open where
it was the winning peg, but my mate Chris was not a well man and not it then
right frame of mind for the job in hand, but still a days sport on a horrible
wet and windy day, but all that aside i still won his pound, ha, ha, ha

This was the first week of the Milo Masters practice for the four coming winter league series and on the wettest day ever it was not one bit comfortable let me tell ya....
16 Fished
1st.Colin Bartlett, Lake John-J+B Tackle
peg 38 26-08-0
A few anglers dropped out after they had seen the weather forecast and who
can blame them because it just blew and blew and the it rained and rained some
more, there were a few fish feeding it was presentation the kept the weights
down I held on for dear life and braved it without a brolly, there were a few
fish to be had and at the end of it but it was most uncomfortable, practice
makes perfect so we go into next weeks final practice with a little bit of
knowledge of what to do for the best, for me it was 0.10 hook length to an 18
hook with a tail of worm to the hook and ground bait is the key to a bag of
silvers. I would like to take this opportunity to remember Don Spinks local
councillor and Holyfield's Fishery boss who passed away on Monday 3rd December
and our thoughts go out to his family and loved ones from, Philomena Shinkins,
Karen and Colin and kids.
2nd. Steve Briggs, Terrapins
peg 14 18-08-0
Briggsy holds his own on his first match on the lake since last winter and
does the business on a peg that would have had the wind and the rain blowing
directly into him all match so well done to that Terrapin.
3rd. Dennis Jarvis, Pro Master-Trabbucco
peg 7 18-04-0
Second yesterday on the bottom lake and bridesmaid again today but this is
valuable practice for the league and Dennis looks like he is going to be a
force to recon with this winter, worm and caster on a shorter pole line...
