Middle Lake 10 pegs

1st Colin Bradbury (Castle Angling) Peg5 34lb 3½oz Method/Boillie & Maggot/Carp & Bream

2nd Pete Palmer (Dog Lane Fishery) Peg8 26lb1oz Method/Boillie & Maggot/ Bream & Carp

3rd Martin Paynter (Dog Lane Fishery) Peg51 21lb 4½oz Pole/Chop & Caster/Miixed Silvers

The wind this week was blowing towards the Dam Wall and Carpark bank, so it was no surprise to the regulars that the fish were in close to the pegs.

First chuck and first fish on the feeder for Colin Bradbury of Castle Angling on peg 5, fishing a small white boillie the tip wrapped round and resulted in the first of his 28lb of carp. The fish came and went in spells matching the rise and fall of the wind, which saw the water go from choppy to light ripple. Needless to say this did not slow Colin down too much and he finally put 34lb 3½oz on the scales.

On peg8 Pete Palmer of Dog Lane Fishery had also found the fish responding to the method and Boillie approach but on a line over his pole line. With the gusting wind proving troublesome for good presentation on the pole the feeder was his preferred tactic. Pete's final weigh in was a near 50:50 split of 26lb 1oz Bream & Carp for second spot.

Third place this week went to Martin Paynter also of Dog Lane Fishery who kept to his favourite chopped worm and caster and placed a fine mixed bag of 21lb 4½oz on the scales.

The draw for next weeks match will be SATURDAY at the Kings Head Pub Napton 9am and fishing from 10:30am to 4:30pm. (Light permitting)

Middle Lake 15 pegs

1st Dave Smart (Castle Angling) Peg49 21lb 4½oz Method/Maggot/Carp & Bream

2nd Martin Paynter (Dog Lane Fishery) Peg48 13lb 13½oz Pole/Chop & Caster/Miixed Silver

3rd Vince Atkinson (Rugby Tackle) Peg17 13lb 6oz Pole/Chop & Caster/Miixed Silvers

A week of strong winds and heavy rain raised the water levels and the waves at Dog Lane, but the conditions on the day gave everyone hope that the venue would respond well. However, such is fishing and the day proved to be one that rewarded those that would stick to a working plan or be prepared to change.

Dave Smart of Castle Angling was one such angler who found that on peg 49 that his best response was to his method feeder line. David watched his fellow anglers who were persistant on the pole struggle to get presentation right for anything but small roach, so decided to persevere on the feeder and was rewarded with 17lb of small carp which together with 4lb of silvers gave him this weeks top spot.

Second overall was Martin Paynter of Dog Lane Fishery, who went with his favourite choppie attack on peg 48 and winkled out 13lb 13½oz of mixed silvers.

Third best weight went to Vince Atkinson of Rugby Tackle who was on peg 17 of the sheltered far bank, where he adopted the same tactics as Martin, but fished tight to the reeds and found roach and perch to 1lb obliging on worm or caster. Vince ended the day only one fish away from taking second place and weighed in a respectable 13lb 6oz.

The rest of the field put between 6lb and 9lb of hard earnt fish to the scales. Despite the conditions and the results the hardy regulars will be back next week in an attempt to turn this weeks fishing match into a catching one.

The draw for next weeks match will be SATURDAY at the Kings Head Pub Napton 9am and fishing from 10:30am to 3:30pm. (Light permitting)

November 4th

Middle Lake 11 pegs

1st Alan Hancox (Team Lollipop) Peg55 20lb 8oz Pole/Expanders/Carp & Bream

2nd Dave Smart (Castle Angling) Peg52 14lb 6oz Method/Maggot/Carp

3rd Geoff Eggison (Lime Tree AC) Peg8 9lb 14oz Pole/Maggot/Miixed Silvers

Three nights of hard frosts to -4degC put the fishing to true winter tactics, with minimal feeding and either long waits on the tip or searching the peg on the pole.

First place this week went to Alan Hancox of Team Lollipop who made a debut appearance on peg55 in the hope of catching some of Dog Lanes' Bream. Alan managed to do this on the pole using small expanders to tempt five fish out of the chilly water. His expanders were also of interest to half a dozen common carp which boosted his weight to a match winning 20lb 8oz.

Second place went to last weeks winner, Dave Smart on peg52 who adopted his method feeder tactics of last week and was able to tempt 14lb 6oz of carp to the weigh scales.

Third place and almost deciding not to weigh in was Geoff Eggison on Peg8 on the Dam wall. Geoff in the last hour found the bream had arrived but would only take a bait that was laid on and 'inched' through his feed area. Sadly for Geoff he lost several good fish on the way to the net that would have put him well clear of the field. Maybe it's time to invest his winnings in a longer net handle!

Despite the conditions everyone was getting bites but hitting them proved to be difficult, most likely because the most obliging fish were 1oz roach!.

The draw for next weeks match will be SATURDAY at the Kings Head Pub Napton 9am and fishing from 10:30am to 3:30pm. (Light permitting)

Middle Lake 9 pegs

1st Martin Paynter (Dog Lane Fishery) Peg4 37lb 10oz Pole/Caster & Maggot/Bream & Silvers

2nd Alan Hancox (Team Lollipop) Peg50 34lb 8oz Pole/Sweetcorn & Expanders/Carp

3rd Andy Judd (Daventry) Peg23 12lb 8oz Pole/Maggot/Miixed Silvers

This week at Dog Lane the wind had picked up and the water colour had dropped out, leaving the nine anglers fishing no choice but to either fish further out from the bank or go light for the silvers.

Martin Paynter on peg 4 chose to fish close in for the roach and skimmers for the first two hours and found them obliging straight from the all-in. Eventually Martin was forced to go further out as his inside line dried up, and with the increased tow on the lake took the unusual step of using a 1gm lollipop float and a size 20 hook to single red maggot to take a run of Bream and skimmers for a match winning weight of 37lb 10oz.

Second place on peg50 went to last weeks winner Alan Hancox who in his final hour had the carp queuing up to take his sweetcorn or expander bait at 13m over micro pelllet. Alan weighed in a very creditable 34lb 8oz.

Third place went to Daventry Chef, Andy Judd who cooked up a net of roach and perch for a far bank winning weight of 12lb 8oz. Nice busy fishing and an enjoyable way of keeping warm, maybe it's time to consider a silvers only 3hr match one Sunday afternoon.

The draw for next weeks match will be SATURDAY at the Kings Head Pub Napton 9am and fishing from 10:30am to 3:30pm. (Light permitting)

Middle Lake 10 pegs

1st Alan Hancox (Team Lollipop) Peg23 11lb 5oz Pole/Maggot/Carp & Bream

2nd Andy Judd (Daventry) Peg29 3lb 13oz Pole/Maggot/Bream & Silvers

3rd Harry Harrison (Warwick) Peg25 11oz Pole/Maggot/Skimmer Bream

A week of rain and a hard frost the night before put the fishing barometer on poor this week.

First place went to Alan Hancox of Team Lollipop who drew peg23 on the far bank. Feeding very small amounts of micros and fishing either maggot or corn on the hook Alan managed to coax half a dozen small carp for 9lb and 2lbs worth of silvers to weigh in 11lb 5oz.

Second place went to Andy Judd of Daventry on peg29 who weighed in a mixed bag of small silvers and a skimmer bream for 3lb 13oz.

Third place went to Harry Harrison of Warwick who only weighed in at the insistance of 'friend' Alan with one skimmer for 11oz.

The rest of the field remained fishless and biteless for the full five hours, despite this the hardy souls are coming back next week!

The draw for next weeks match will be SATURDAY at the Kings Head Pub Napton 9am and fishing from 10:30am to 3:30pm. (Light permitting)

November 15th

Middle Lake 5 pegs

1st Pete Palmer (Dog Lane) Peg 6 6lb 3oz Pole/worm/Bream

2nd Dave Armstrong (Jets MG) Peg 5 4lb 14oz Pole/Pinkie over Joker/Silvers

3rd Simon Enticott (Jets MG) Peg 3 3lb 3½oz Pole/Pinkie over joker/Silvers

A further week of rain and the forecast of strong winds kept over half of those booked on for the match tucked up in bed. Suffice to say the weatherman got it wrong and the winds failed to appear.

First place went to Pete Palmer (Dog Lane Fishery) who drew peg 6 on the dam wall and winkled out three bream for 6lb 3oz on hair-rigged worm.

Second place went to Dave Armstrong (Jets MG) on peg 5 who coaxed out a nice net of roach and skimmers for 4lb 14oz on pinkie and maggot over joker.

In Third place was Simon Enticott also of Jets MG who drew peg 3 and managed to put together a net of gonks and a single carp for 3lb 3½oz.

All who fished agreed the fish were in the pegs but the very strong tow made presentation a challenge especially with the amount of debris pushing through.

There will be no more open matches until the New Year, keep an eye on the fisheries website for further updates. Welcome to Dog Lane Fishery
