Reg Brayne Trophy River Stort Backstream

19th January 2025

​

Our first match of the new year was fished on a backwater of the River Stort, close to Taylor’s. This stretch is owned by the Bishops Stortford club who kindly allow us use it.  After a very cold night the river had reasonable flow but was quite clear. Most of the fish caught were small roach, although a few decent perch were also weighed in. I had top weight on the day with 3lbs 15ozs, Alan Fox was 2nd 3lbs 7ozs and Jeff Pearson was 3rd with 2lbs 9ozs.

Ron Wise Trophy Taylor's Top Lake

23rd February 2025

​

This match was fished on the Top Lake at Taylor’s. Following many week of cold weather and accompanying high pressure, we finally got some milder weather for this match. This lead to fish starting to move around and feed. Consequently, all those taking part weighed and there were decent weights of bream & F1’s. Jeff Pearson had top weight with 42bs 2ozs, Steve May was 2nd with 19lbs 13ozs and I was 3rd with 17lbs 15ozs.

ACAS v BSDAS Hall Farm

5th March 2025

​

Our latest inter club match with Bishop’s Stortford was fished on the normally prolific Hall Farm lake. Cool conditions with little wind made it tough going for all those taking part, with just a few decent carp being caught from the favoured areas. Team wise it was a comfortable win for Bishop’s Stortford who scored 75 points to our 52. Individually Peter Green had had top weight with 22lbs 3ozs, Phil Whitmill  of Bishop’s Stortford was 2nd with 16lbs 4ozs and Tony Cruci also of Bishop’s Stortford 3rd with 15lbs 7ozs.

Officers Cup Taylor's Top Lake

9th March 2025

​

The Officers Cup is our final club competition of the season and was fished on the Top Lake at Taylor’s. Yet again we had a cold start to the day and there was little wind. This led to a big drop in catches compared to the previous match on the lake and over half the field failed to catch . Top weight and the Officers Cup went to Alan Fox with 21lbs 10ozs, Alan Sims was 2nd with 12lbs 13ozs and Jo Smith was 3rd with 7lbs 9ozs.
