The Seaham Town Council Trophy was won byPortland College
The Northern Bait Farm Trophy for Person of the Match was won by Michael Graham and the North Tyneside Coalition for Disabled People Trophy for the smallest fish was lifted by Emma Booth.
The four group winners were Scott Cartledge for the 10 and unders, Layton Forster in the 11 and 12s, Zandra Green won the 13 to 15 year-olds and Hernez Errington was first in the 16 and 17-year-olds; a great achievement by all of them
Over the last week the Big fish seemed to have been taking their annual holidays as the best recorded fish was a 12 pounder caught by Micheal Easton. Grace and Hannah Weightman aged 7 and 5 both caught their first fighting blue trout at Sharpley Springs at 3lbs each and Zac Dauda aged 5 following in his father footsteps taking his first fish at Sharpley with a 3 pounder.
The most catch over the week was by Paul Fenny fromHartlepool who released 26 fish from Buzzers and Drys,
while the same day Peter Appleby from Bishop Auckland also fished well netting
20 Trout. A couple of days earlier Bobby Jaskowks from Great Ayton brought to
the net a creditable 21 trout, and Wade Brown of Tynemouth also hit double
figures during the week with a fine 11.
Buzzers in black and olive remain the mainstay and the choice can alter
day to day(sometimes hour to hour).Pupal patterns fished just
sub-surface can attract attention when all else fails.Given rising
trout,cdc buzzer imitations have been good-shuttlecocks or palominos in
sizes from 20 up to 12.
When there is no obvious hatch,damsels and daddylonglegs h
ave been picking up good fish whilst the patient angler awaits the final
very sedgy hour of daylight.This can be spectacularly good with bushy
dries and pulled invictas all scoring.
