The week's open match results from Lincolnshire's Westwood Lakes. All matches this week were switched to the more sheltered Kestrel Lake and anglers found it difficult to present anything. Tuesdays open was won by the in form Ron Roberts using a flavoured small inline method with double dead red maggot with Marukyu 130 ground bait from peg 21. Second place Paul Quinton used similar tactics to the winner but late switch to a maggot feeder saw him have a good last hour.

Report from the NSWCARC League Final, ACT, Australia Club Lake, Canberra, ACT, Australia | Date of match: 11th DecemberNumber of anglers: 12Match Report: A day with four seasons in one made it hard fishing for most in the final league match of 2011. Sunny with temps in the 30's for the first half of the match changed with 60 mm of rain, thunder and lightning for the second half. There was even a 25 minute break today in the middle of the match as the lighting got a little close for comfort. Small carp and goldfish made up most of the weights on the pole.

Many found the going tough as the water had dropped colour and the bottom could be seen out to 6m, so fishing a short line was not an option. Most opted to sit it out for a big billy Perch or an Orfe, a few fished for anything that would bite and those that did managed to winkle out a few Roach and Gudgeon.
