Steve Ormrod

Well at the last meeting Steve Ormrod gave the region a talk based around the canal feeder and water treatment reservoirs we have in the northwest.
He mainly focused on one of these of which he was a member of the syndicate, focussing on basics like location and understanding what is in front of you under the surface.
A top night and fairly thought provoking dor those both who have fished some of these venues and those who have not venttured up into the bleak moorlands surrounding us

Cheers for last night very alternative tallk compared to what we have seen so far. Going tinkering in the shed to make a boilie hopper as we speak sorry i missed the last bit but needed to be home by 11 last night, and for all the stayaways out there with it being bonfire night and all you missed probably the most down to earth and humorous speaker we have seen so far hope the fires were worth it.

Well its almost time for the next meeting which will feature a bit of a show by Mick Bowen.

this gentleman is known for his river piking exploits, should be a good night they usually are anyway see you all next wednesday

Woody' and his eels

Well last night we kicked off our second season with a show from a local angler with a penchant for local fishing.

I have to confess i missed the early part of his show and talk which from what i did see revolved around carp on some of the waters he grew up on.

Damian then moved onto what fo0r a considerable part of is life has been his major love the much maligned eel, he proceded to give us his thoughts on using rig mechanics to do away with the potential deep hooking problems for more info go to http://eelfishing.co.uk/art.htm.

He then went into his other exploits for the local perch, and accidental (nuisance) captures of pike

all in all a good allround gab with lots of thought provoking ideas that was well presented
