Wintons Fishery
Burgess Hill, West Sussex
Dave Griffith - 77lb 4lb cat
Another great month of fishing has been had at Wintons and the lakes are looking really
picturesque with Autumn now upon us. More and more members have left the car park happy
having caught new PB’s during their sessions. This fully endorses our slogan ‘Wintons the home
of your next PB’ – so well done to all those anglers who have attained their targets for the season
already.
I would like to mention Ian Parris, who took an amazing catch of carp from the fat finger on
Kingfisher Lake during early September. Ian caught a 45lb mirror (big mirror), 33lb 8oz common,
26lb 9oz common plus a 16lb koi. Ian was fishing a 48 hour session and it wonderful to hear the
news he’d caught a 40, 30, 20 & a double in one session! Well done! Please remember our Annual
General Meeting is being held on November 15th at the Weald Public House in Royal George
Road Burgess Hill from 6pm. I am really looking forward to seeing you all there having flown back
from Spain. Peter Springate I am sure will deliver a top notch talk and slide show for us all! Please
see our website for the evening’s agenda.
