A Tuesday off work could only mean one thing, my monthly trip to Revels! A quick stop for breakfast at Greggs in Yeovil was disappointing as their toastie machine was broken and I hoped it wasn’t an omen for the day ahead. As per normal there was a great midweek turnout of 19 anglers with all the usual suspects in attendance. I …

As I haven’t been to Revels for a little while and was beginning to suffer from withdrawal symptoms, I booked a day off work to fish the Tuesday open. After a quick stop for breakfast in Yeovil, I got there in good time as the car park fills up quickly with turnouts of 20 and upwards most weeks. Draw time arrived and …

For the next Stoke match we were at Revels with the sixteen anglers spread over Main and Dead Tree lakes. I was hoping to be on the latter after it fished well the last time I was here on a Tuesday and got my wish when I pulled out 46. I’ve drawn it a couple of times in the past and done …

Another Tuesday trip to Revels and Parker ‘The Pole’ was back for this one, when we arrived the car park was already starting to fill up. Always popular, there were 21 fishing this week and we were on Main and Dead Tree lakes. The draw got underway and it was a nice feeling knowing I couldn’t end up on Trendles although I’d …

Before I get on to the latest post, in the week I received the terribly sad news that Roger Russell had passed away. I’ve known Roger for over 40 years, he used to fish the Isle and Dillington with IAA and in later years he enjoyed fishing for silvers at Summerhayes and when he stopped fishing due to ill health, he would …

Another trip to one of my all time favourite venues although I was a little disappointed when I got there and it was on Main and Trendles again. The draw got underway and as I was near the top of the list, I didn’t have long to wait to see where fate was putting me this week, Dean had a rummage in …

There had been some brilliant silvers weights on Woodlanders, Canal and Main last week so I booked a day off work, met PTP for breakfast and then headed to Revels. We arrived early and as the usual reprobates, miscreants and rogues arrived, the banter was in full flow as always. Draw time arrived and I was disappointed to hear the 20 anglers …

A day off work on a Tuesday can only mean one thing, Revels! I made a quick pit stop in Yeovil for brekkie before heading across the border into bandit country. 21 fishing today so a fantastic turnout and we would be spread over Main and Dead Tree lakes. Draw time arrived and I was praying for a nice silvers peg, Duffers …

With the weather finally beginning to warm up, I booked a couple of Tuesdays off work so I could go and fish the midweek matches at Revels. Typically after a gorgeous weekend, it was going to be a windy one today. After a Greggs brekkie, I got to the venue early and the carpark soon started filling up with the usual suspects. …

I had intended to do ten matches in twelve days but was beginning to feel a bit ‘fished out’ and in need of a lie in (plus the never ending crap weather certainly wasn’t helping!). So today’s trip to Revels would be the ninth and last match of my fishing extravaganza. After meeting PTP at Greggs for breakfast we made the short …
