Fishing Re-Start
As you may have seen from various articles in the media particularly those from the Anglers Trust, there is a strong possibility that fishing may open up in the not too distant future.
The Staffordshire Match Fishing Club has existing bookings at various fisheries and over the coming days and weeks, we will be attempting to confirm that these remain in place for us to take up, albeit on a “Non-Match” basis.
As soon as we have confirmed these bookings, we will be in contact, to inform you of opportunities for us all to go fishing again.
2020 Season
Twenty Four Matches have been booked for the 2020 match season with only three more slots now left to fill.
Venues Booked so far:
-
Carney’s (Dragon & Damsel Pools)
-
Curborough (Oak, Swan & Canal Pools)
-
Blakehall (Capricious, Hall & Blake Pools)
-
Heronbrook (Match, Island & Pisces Pools)
-
Izaak Walton (Canal, Top & Bottom Pools)
Now that improvements have been made at Hanchurch fishery, we plan to book some of the remaining matches on the Raymar Canal Pool.
We will continue to keep everyone updated with developments as they occur.

I dropped in at the venue on Thursday (a warm sunny day) and saw countless carp basking and cruising on top.
Chatting with the bailiff he told me 112lb won Wednesdays match – mainly F1s with carp taken in the margins later on mostly caught on meat. Other methods he recommended were pellet shallow and also paste, particularly on the deeper – siltier side of the lake, if it starts to fizz.
Hope to see you all there on Sunday
