Match Scene

Over the last year there have been some changes in the match committee and a big effort has been made to listen to feedback. As a result we are going to see some six-hour matches in the Summer, section pools re-introduced and greater clarity on pools payouts. We have also introduced a Facebook page so that items of a more dynamic nature plus input from members can be easily accessed. This is a closed page - so you need to be an existing or prospective VAC member to be allowed entry.

Remember that you can see last season's results (and all years back to 2001) on the match archive at the bottom of this page.

Match news

I write this in December which, on the whole, has been wet and mild, and therefore our match weights have been pretty good - with the odd exception. Slough House proved to be poor for most due to a number of factors and the trip to Felmersham seemed to have been a week late judging by how it had been fishing. Club Secretary Mark Jones organised three Friday matches at Riverside which were well attended and most had a good days fishing after a belly-buster breakfast in the new club house.

The Christmas match had 33 in attendance and therefore weights suffered a little; only nine double-figure weights with venue regular Martin Boddy taking a well deserved win.
Next matches:  For January we have Southend Farm - Damsel & Kingfisher on January 13 and Puddledock Farm - Road lake on January 27. These are the last of this season's Championship fixtures. Book in with Allan as usual.

A reminder that all members are welcome to participate and if you want to go on the distribution list to get the emails for results and booking on please just email matches@verulam-angling.co.uk   .
Week-day matches:  

Midweek fixtures for 2019 up until June can be seen here.

 

The Tuesday matches are now alternating between Frogmore and Riverside. Results do vary with the weather but winning weights are always respectable, plus attendance is good, a best of 19 but usually 10 or more .

 

Draws are at 8:30 and fishing 10 to 3 although this may be tweaked slightly on the day.

Pools are optional and are just £5 plus optional £2 for a 'silvers pool'. Steve Burfoot is running these matches so if you want to book on please contact him here or telephone 07505 109880.   Fishery nets provided at the VAC waters.

 

Pictured right is organiser Steve with part of his 58.12 winning weight from Riverside on 8 May.

A reminder that, due to demand, booking for ALL MATCHES is vital. This must be via email or text, don't just mention it whilst weighing in two months earlier and expect us to remember. And, if you fail to turn up, you will be liable for the peg fee.
