Seasons greetings everyone, thought I would post up Returns for 2010 just to whet everyone's appetite.
The first half of the season was characterised by very low water conditions. That and the pollution incident would appear to be responsible for the drop in numbers of fish caught. That said, returns showed clearly that more members caught fish than in previous seasons, meaning that new members in particular
had done well. Members, it seemed, had fished both the rivers Taw and Culm more, for obvious reasons, and both rivers had fished well. The total of 764 fish caught was based on 45 catch returns, of which 11 were nil returns.
Notable catches:
On the river Yeo, 3 x 13” Ben Dymoke-Marr; 1 x13” Graham Nicol.
On the Lower Creedy, 1 x 14” Roy Thompson.
On the river Taw, 1 x13” Ben Dymoke-Marr; 1 x 13” Mike Willis;
1 x 14” Chris Hurford.
On the river Culm, 1 x 15” Ben Dymoke-Marr; 1 x 15” Nigel esbitt;
1 x 16” Jo Anderson; 1 x 16.5” Toby Dean; 1 x 17” Ben Dymoke-Marr.
Congratulations to all concerned.
The Chairman’s cup
The top card was – Ben Dymoke- Marr with 139 fish.
The Chairman’s cup, for the most fish in a season, was therefore presented to Ben.
The “Greg Mason” cupThe Greg Mason trophy, for the largest fish of the season, was also awarded to Ben Dymoke-Marr for his catch of a 17” trout on the river Culm. Again, congratulations to Ben.
Only 78 days to go, so get the vices going.
All the best David
