Rookery Waters and the U shaped Raven Lake was the destination for this year's Away Day Cup. Breakfast for some in the award winning Rookery Cafe, before heading upstairs to the well stocked Tackle and Bates shop. Seven anglers competed in the away day cup, with Pete Wray looking to retain his crown from 2025 and make it 3 years in a row. First place went to Dave Preston, continuing his excellent run of form in 2026. Dave finished with 84lb 13oz from corner peg number 18. Fishing light on top 2+2 with white maggots feeding maggots over the top. Then switched to long down the edge big potting maggots and some micros and fishing bunches of maggots over the top.

Match Result: Sunday 20th September 2026 Venue: DSJAC River Nene Stibbington Fine and settled weather for the river anglers on the Stibbington stretch of the River Nene. Fifteen turned out for this one and a lot of effort had gone into preparing the heavily weeded section. Today anglers would be competing in the Jim Measures Memorial Trophy. Jim was a leading club member in donating and purchasing the shares in the Several Fisheries (Deeping St James River Welland). Jim was a staunch member of the club and committee, and was Chairman for a time. With current holder Ray Torrington not available for today's match, it would be a new name on the trophy for next year. Lots of aggressive Pike showing all along the stretch making it difficult for anglers to keep the fish coming. Plenty of hooks were lost, but most species of coarse fish were caught from Minnows to Bream. Stephen Smith was the winner on the day with 4lb 8oz from peg number 13. Stephen fished the 4M whip on double pinkie over groundbait Joint second place to David Norville and Paul Dotchin with 4lb 3oz from peg numbers 18 and 5. David fished pinkie over ground bait using the pole, with Paul fishing similar on 6m pole line on pinkie over groundbait. Fourth place to Ian Benton with 3lb 12 oz from peg number 2. Ian rotated through worm, caster and pinkie over ground bait.

Match Result: Sunday 6th September 2026 Venue: DSJAC Horseshoe Lake and River Nene Not many club’s can hold a competition in this format by using their own Lake and River stretch to fish a pairs match. Following on from the successful trial last winter, we decided to fish the Annual Pairs Cup on 2 different venues. All anglers got to choose their preferred venue and with a little adjustment everyone got their first choice. Split nicely with 6 anglers on Horseshoe lake and 6 anglers fishing the Sibson stretch of the River Nene adjacent to the lake. Normal draw for each venue, but a post match draw would decide on the parings. Antony Johnson led the way on the lake with 151 lbs 8 oz from peg number 19. Antony fished a hybrid feeder and pink wafter over particles. Starting at 23m, dropping back to 15m and finishing in the margin. On the river Stephen Smith finished with 9lb exactly just 2 oz ahead of Second place Dave Preston. Stephen fished the 4m whip on hemp changing to single maggot towards the end over ground bait.

Match Result: Saturday 16th August 2026 Venue: Kingsland Reservoir Second visit to Kingsland for this year and the warmest of welcomes from Dominic and Heidi, although the weather was at last just starting to cool following the fifth heatwave of 2026. The fish were all up in the water on the Small Carp lake with plenty of them active in all areas of the lake. Today's anglers would be competing for the Dennis Clarke Cup. Donated by Nobby Clarke who had a tackle shop in Deeping St James. As well as the fourth and final round of the Fenland Cup, it is also the Final of the Individual Knockout Trophy. Thirteen anglers in the draw and amongst them Pete Wray who is the current holder of the Dennis Clarke Cup and would be looking to retain his crown for the third consecutive year. Current Fenland Cup holder Jason Chatham is in need of overturning a three point deficit to retain his crown from the current leader in this years competition Dave Preston. But a new name would be going on the Knockout Trophy with David Pike fishing against Dave Preston. Dave Preston was the “winner that takes it all” with a superb shallow fishing session on pellets. Dave finished with 231 lbs 7 oz from lake end Peg number 17. That is over 557lb of fish in his 2 visits to Kingsland this year. Starting on top 3 and later moving out to top 5, Dave fished 8mm pellets over 4mm feed pellets. Second place on the day was our regular guest angler Stuart Redman with 226 lbs 4 oz from peg number 12. Stuart quickly switched to 8mm pellets over sloppy 4mm pellets in the margin after he realised shallow just wasn’t working for him. Third place was Paul Sugarman with 100 lbs 7 oz from peg number 11. Paul fished 8mm pellets on the bottom over 4mm pellets on the top 4. Fourth Place to Elliot Capper with 95 lbs 12 oz from peg number 5.
