  Fish 'O' Maina festival 2003...

Fish ‘O’ Mania was fished at White Acres for the first time on Saturday 14th June 2003 and the results were better than we had expected. The day was one of the hottest yet this year with hardly any wind normally White Acres fishes hard when it’s still and calm.

The day started off well and Jennys, Nelsons & Trelawney producing plenty of fish from the off. Steve Cooke was the first to show an impact catching brown goldfish shallow on the pellet. News was coming back from Nelsons that two anglers Steve Seager & Les Williams both had 30lb in the first hour, but on the way to take some pictures I noticed that Mark Illingworth peg 28 Trelawney was getting a fish a chuck shallow on the pellet. It was clear that after two hours Mark was going to be hard to beat, it seamed that the anglers either side of him had lost the will and slowed their feed
ending up giving it to Mark on a plate. Mark told me that he had fed his entire pellet quota and was having to feed meat and corn to keep the fish coming, what a shame. All the anglers in the top six fished really well with some great performances, Steve Cooke weighed 95lb 03oz of all small fish, and he hardly had a fish over a pound. Paul Blinkhorn fished peg 4 Lamorna and weighed 75lb 03oz of all small Carp, we reckon he must have had over 100 Carp.

Sky Sports were here filming the match and it will be showed this Friday night the 20th June.
