Cold fish go into hiding for Selby anglers
The sudden switch from summer to autumn weather has not helped the sport at Pollington’s Viking Fishery this week, and consequently catches have been down until the fish adjust to the new temperatures, writes Margaret Tones.
Selby Sixties’ midweek match on Deer Pond was won by H Rafferty with 68lb 4oz. Second with 47lb 8oz was R Longbottom and J Ward third with 24lb 8oz.
Viking’s regular Saturday Open was held on Hawk Pond where Castleford’s Andy Stoner took first place with 29lb 1oz.
