Furnace Mill Fishery

The Sunday Open was on Mucky Meadow and Furnace Pools this week. Ed was sure that the fishery record would go as all around the fishery lots of people were catching lots of fish.  The winner was Steve Harris, Daiwa Gordon League, with a new match record for Mucky Meadow of 225 lb 2 oz.  Not quite able to beat Paul Cook's best of 255 lb 14 oz from Willow Pool.  Steve fished peg 38 and used caster and pellet to good effect catching carp to 10 lb. In second place was Duncan Newton, Redditch, with 168 lb 10 oz from peg 8 on Furnace, he used maggot and pellet.

Max Galaszewski, Furnace Mill, landed 158 lb 15 oz from peg 13 on the narrow stretch on Furnace Pool and in 4th was Martyn Guest, SBS, with 132 lb 7 oz from peg 51 on Mucky.  Colin Matthews, Furnace Mill, came 5th with 107 lb 4 oz from peg 25.
