THE LEONARD CHESHIRE HOME
"THE FORGOTTEN
CUP"
HUNSTRETE
Withy Pool
Saturdat
July 10 2010
Seven residents, escorted by a handful of voluntary carers turned-up
to fish for a trophy presented to the Leonard Cheshire Home by the Environment Agency.
Unfortunately no one turned up to present the trophy which was just as well
because although the Timsbury based home remembered to lay on transport for the contestants - they forgot to send the
cup.
Nevertheless, Bathampton AA's Keith Pope and
his helpers made their guests welcome and then set about making them comfortable at their drawn pegs. Every contestant
and helper was supplied with an identical 3 metre whip and enough bait to last the entire match.
The
rules were very simple. Every fish counted as a point regardless of size and the winners would be the pair who caught the
most fish in the allotted time of 90 minutes
The winners of the Forgotten Trophy was Rose Froud
and her carer for the match, Bathampton AA Coach Dave Burnham, who ran in 15 fish head of their nearest challengers.
Dave
said: “There are plenty of silverfish in Withy Pool yet very few people fish for them.
“Most
visitors concentrate on catching carp with only a few ever bothering to fish for the lake’s huge head of silverfish."
He
continued: “Rose drew to fish point peg 68 – a good peg.
“I
threw in a hand full of hemp, tares and a few maggots at the start and almost immediately the fish started to show an interest.
“Within
15 minutes or so we were taking a fish a chuck but then, so were a few other people so we just kept going.”
Neighbouring
peg 66 came up with a second best catch for Pete Smith (disabled) and his carer for the match, Jun
Terre.
Pete and Jun fished the same as the winners and netted 27 skimmers,
roach, rudd and perch.
Joint third was Roy Jeffries (disabled) and carer,
Kaoru, and Jason Gold (disabled) and carer, John Proctor with both pairs
putting 26 fish safely back into the lake.
Result: 1, Rose Froud & Dave Burnham, Top Peg 68, 42 points; 2, Pete Smith & Jun Terre, 27; 3= Roy Jeffries & Kaoru and Jason Gold
& John Proctor, both 26; 5, Jackie Holt & Eddie Gillard, 21; 6, Sam Hale & Kaori, 13; 7, Carol Woodford &
Martin Cole, 12.
