Fishing has been hard going on the Open Coast for sea anglers as the latest results from Bideford & Appledore reflect. With stormy conditions forecast I expect a flurry of action through Late January and early February with Bull Huss, spurdog and conger likely.
Bidefords Angling Club 48-hour results
1st Paul Ackland – Rockling 1lb 3 79.167%
Appledore Shipbuilders
Claudio Pinto managed a sizeable small eyed at 4lb 15ozs to secure the win in Appledore Shipbuilders Winter League Match.
FLOUNDER COMP UPDATE Sunday January 26th
Still plenty of flounders about, as proved by Ted and his dad this week! (Backgrounds obscured for obvious reasons, after all there is a comp coming up). Well done guys!
Anyway, on to the comp.
FISHING BOUNDARIES:
We have decided to widen next Sunday’s flounder comp to anywhere on the Taw, as long as you are at the Ebberley Arms for the weigh in from 3.30 – 4.30…..comp starts at 10am
WEIGH IN LIMIT:
We are only accepting 1 fish per angler for the weigh in. A good idea is to keep your fish alive in a bucket of water so that it can be released safely if you then catch a bigger one.
ENTRY:
The entry form is on our counter. £5 for adults and £3 for children
We are building up a good head of participants and a great selection of prizes so look forward to seeing you all on the day to raise as much as possible for a great cause!!
