By Ponso Pondhopper Last Saturday’s Great Trout Tickle ended spectacularly with a
monster catch, that sets a new record for Oatbarton. Mister Hooh amazed
us all with this astonishing Brown Trout that weighed in at an
incredible thirteen pounds and five ounces. Other catches were two
pounds twelve (Mrs Toadflax), two pounds eleven (Miss Lina) and two
pounds nine (Miss Nimelia). Altogether 63 trout
were caught, with the prize for most species caught going to Mr Potty
(1 Red-spotted, 2 Brown Trout, 1 Redband Trout, 2 Bull Trout 1 Speckled
Trout, 1 Golden trout) The first Golden trout caught was by Mr Everbrock, who beat Mr Potty by several minutes, to win the Golden Trout Award. The
Beginners’ Match was won by Miss Seggra with a very handsome 35 points.
The winner of the Weedy prize, with three clumps of weed, was Miss
Sennah. Watch out for the next Shire Angling Club match, which will be at Overhill in September. (Date to be anounced) |
