Brothers Toby and Timmy Pepper gave a pole fishing masterclass at the All England Pole Championships at Westwood Lakes Boston on Saturday. Both drawn on Skylark Lake, Timmy peg 16 in A section and Toby on peg 34 in B section looking to retain his title that he won in this event last year and make history as the first angler to win back to back titles in the event. In windy conditions the whistle sounded for the start. Timmy went straight across at 13mtrs to the far bank and caught within seconds in just 8 inches of water on the shelf. Carp were his quarry, and he put 3 stocky Carp in the net in the first 5 minutes. He continued to do this through out the match, before switching to his margin swim to net some nice Tench and Carp just inches from the Bank. Toby on peg 34 was also catching well and had over 70 Ide and Barbel in his net at the 3 hour mark. Toby then lost a 5lbs+ Bream at the net, but kept a cool head under pressure and fishing worm over pellet went back on to his 13mtr line to net several Carp. Talk along the bank was the Pepper Brother’s were bagging on Skylark Lake and were going to win there sections with ease. As the final whistle went to signal the end of the match, most people thought the individual winner would come from Kestrel Lake were the bigger fish live. News soon filtered through that Josh Balodis (Suffolk County) had weighed 51lbs+ on Kestrel Lake winning his section and the Lake. With this weight to beat it came to Timmy to weigh first. Pulling his nets out and emptying them into the weigh sling, everyone waited for the steward to call his weight. After what seemed ages to call, the steward shouted 54lbs exactly. Timmy was leading, and the boy’s knew then one way or another the Individual title was coming back home with them again. By the time the scales reached Toby on peg 34, no one had weighed any were near enough to beat Timmy’s weight. Toby pulled his first net out and weighed 26lbs+ of silverfish. Only his Carp net could now win it for him. Emptying his Carp into the weigh sling everyone waited in silence for the steward to call the weight. The silence was broken as the steward shouted 54lbs 2oz. Toby had beat his brother by just 2oz and he had retained his title and history was made, not only back to back titles for Toby, but 1st and 2nd for the two brothers. Toby said afterwards ” even though I have won, we both won really, we win as a team, we lose as a team.” Thats how history was made “Brothers in Arms.” Well done boy’s

Hunstanton Tackle sent a team of four juniors to The All England Junior Pole Championships this week at Westwood Lakes Boston. After a full week of practising on the venue, they finished 2nd in the team event with 8pts, just being pipped by a strong worthy Suffolk County side, who won with 6pts. Excellent section performances came from Tom Carlton (2nd in section) and Callum Leveritt (4th in section) both on Kestrel Lake. Tom Carlton having not fished for a year and Callum Leveritt more used to fishing on Docking Clay Pit, they both adapted well, and kept cool heads with very good Suffolk County anglers pegged next door to them. Over on Skylark Lake was brothers Toby and Timmy Pepper who both won there sections, with ease as was expected of the pair. On the individual result we had a great result, I will put this up soon as it is a great story. The team would like to thank there sponsor Mick Cornell of Hunstanton Tackle for his continued support, team manager Rob Pepper and Mick Stamp (Preston Innovations/Sonubaits) for helping with the coaching.

It’s hard to believe the year is drawing to an end, and what a year it has been! Your support has led to some of our most important successes – things that just two years ago I wasn’t sure would be possible: Here are just a few of the highlights: We opened “The Cove” in Japan despite intense opposition, and received unprecedented coverage of the issue.

A Message From Ric O’Barry

By Leah Lemieux Volunteer Save Japan Dolphins Earth Island Institute Author: Rekindling the Waters I think this has been the longest and most insane, dangerous and fraught day of my life. At the appointed time this morning, Ric O’Barry arrived at the Taiji community center where he would be joining a number of other people representing the interests and protection of the dolphins (and all the innocent people unknowingly eating mercury tainted dolphin meat) for a meeting with the Taiji Mayor and the fishermen’s union
