Spring Canal league.
Teams of 4. in conjunction with Bridgwater Angling association.
Hopefully this will be filled by local angling teams . It is open to all but I’ll have to show loyalty to regular TAA/Baa members first.
So please get your teams sorted hopefully it will put some bums on seats and at the same time get the bottom end of the Canal back on the map.
This league will take place on the Taunton and Bridgwater Canal.
It will be a six round points-based league. (four sections of Ten)
Three rounds will be on the TAA controlled sections and three rounds will be on the BAA controlled sections.
In the first year we will be looking at a maximum of ten teams. The entry per teams will be £120.00 (£30 per angler)
This would generate the prize pot for the conclusion of the league season.
This will be paid to the top three teams in the league. (The most points)
First £600 second £400 third £200
Match pools on the day will be £20 each with £6 being used for the local peg fees.
The remaining £14 will pay the top three in the match and the top two in each section of ten.
With forty anglers that works out to be £120.00 for the match winner.

The Match results from Stathe Drain and the penultimate round of the president’s cup.
With 12 fishing it’s always nice to add some gap pegs and spread them out.
The bottom five peg flyers were left in obviously, but then we have added some extra pegs in the field towards the broken bridge.
The drain was doing its job today after the rain last week with the water level at the top of the bank when we arrived.
But throughout the match it has pumped all day and dropping nearly 500mm.
The colour had dropped out a from Saturday which wasn’t looking good to be honest . 🍊
It was a lovely weather day with autumn sunshine and a light breeze a T-shirt 👕 job
So who did what and how.
Steve Hall from peg #2 has started on the whip catching the odd Roach but after losing a couple of bigger fish. Steve has switched to the pole line on worm.
This has produced several good Tench some cracking Rudd to 1.5lbs and some Perch to 2lbs.
This has been plenty to Win 🏆 the match with 23lbs 7oz
In 2nd place Dan Baldwin from the upstream end peg #14 Dan has fished the long pole (14.5m) to the far bank reeds catching Rudd on Caster for 14lbs
In third place Matin Chiffers from wires peg #6 Martin has had several nice Roach and a Cracking Tench of 6lbs.
