I felt a little sorry for Match Fishing editor Alex Bones for the mauling he got in response to his editorial in the January issue of the magazine. If you didn’t read it, he was critical of a number of postings on various forums, which were, not to put to fine a point on it, simply rude, or ill-informed. The Internet is a wonderful vehicle and used properly it is a great source of learning and communicating. We (DHP) were the first angling publisher to launch an active angling forum (www.

What A Week!
Match Fishing Staff  |  Dec 20, 2011  |  0 comments
What a week it has been for features! The cold weather is truly making its mark with Sheffield and other areas in receipt of snow. Typically this is always a tough time for angling as the 'change' is upon the country. However, once things have stabilised and the fish have become accustomed to the cold the fishing should pick up again. The features have been tough and in a very short space of time the weather really has turned against us.

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.

Match Fishing Staff  |  Dec 19, 2011  |  0 comments
MAP is offering a whole new way to organise and store your pole’s top kits. Alex Bones took an instant liking to the new system – here’s why. I love a gadget, fishing-related or otherwise, so when Mike Robinson, the man in charge of developing this new product for MAP, showed it to me I was an instant fan. It’s simple – a hard ABS case roughly five feet in length with a zip holding the two halves together and an EVA liner designed specifically to keep up to eight pole top kits in place for transport and storage.

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.
