🌊 OMAC Fishing Club –
Match Report 24 October β€” 17:30 to 23:30
Low Water: 21:19 (Hartlepool)

Last night, 12 hardy OMAC members turned out for our final match of October β€” and they certainly earned their stripes. With the storm in full swing, the lads still felt optimistic. A lively sea running, strong westerly winds hammering over their backs for most of the match, and rain that definitely wasn’t the lottery win they hoped for.Thankfully, after the first hour, the gods eased off the downpour, leaving the lads to battle only the wind and the swell.Despite the rough conditions, 7 of the 11 anglers returned to the scales with some cracking fresh-run fish.
There was plenty of talk about fish showing, but the swell made it tough to keep them on β€” a few spoils claimed by the sea before they could be landed.

🎣 Top Rods
Craig Bage took Best Bag, landing 4 cod, including one just under 5lb β€” a quality haul in the conditions.
Ron Smith claimed Heaviest Fish, beating Craig by 2 grams. Fine margins, but that’s match fishing. Top dangling from both lads.πŸ‘

Shoutouts
Well done to everyone who found fish, and equal credit to the lads who turned out and grafted through the weather

Last night, Saturday the 6th of June, the club held its 9th league match of the the year. The match was 17:00 to 23:00 . High water was 20:42 and it was a 4.3m tide.

Conditions weren't too bad , a fresh South east wind was blowing at the start of the match but quickly dropped away to next to nothing. The sea was a bit snotty to start with but lost its aggression as the night progressed .

8 members fished on the night, with 4 weighing in. Here are the results:-

1st Chris Smith 3944g 7 flounders , 1 bass

2nd Ron Smith 1144g 3 flounders

3rd Jonathan Gibbon-Hayes 979g 3 flounders

4th Mark Thompson 685g 3 flounders

Heaviest fish went to Chris Smith with a bass of 933g

Thanks to everyone who turned up and well done to all who weighed in . Thanks again to Zulcron Sports ,North East Tackle , and Danny Swan from Madfish for supporting the club.

Hopefully by the next match a few more summer species make an appearance and we see more people decide to have a crack at them.

Tight lines everyone 🎣🎣 🎣 🐟
