All-Round Power… Matt Godfrey hits the bank with the latest mid-range weapon from Frenzee.
I love getting out on the bank with what I like to think are mid-range poles. The reason? Simply because they are what I have used for a lot of my own fishing, and very often still do. That’s why I was very excited when the FXT Precision Power pole from Frenzee arrived in our offices.

Callum Dicks came out on top in the inaugural Hobgoblin Individual Championship. This is how he did it…
England International, and Maver backed star Callum Dicks has won the inaugural Hobgoblin Individual Championship on the Warwickshire Avon at Evesham, with a 10-12-0 net of perch.
He told Match Fishing: “An end peg is often an advantage in this kind of match, so I was really pleased to draw Peg 73, which was the downstream end of the match length. On inspection it soon became clear that most of the flow here is over the far side of the river, so I felt fishing 14.
Alan Scotthorne bags his third Wychavon title, from the same peg he won the match from in 2012!
Five Times World Champion Alan Scotthorne has won his fourth Wychavon Championship from the same peg he last won the event from back in 2012.
He told Match Fishing: “When I stuck my hand in the draw bag, and came out with Peg 46 I couldn’t quite believe it. I actually drew this very same peg in this very same match back in 2012, when I won the Wycvhavon Championship with 23-7-0 of skimmers – which actually set a new festival record at the time. This record only lasted 24 hours, as it happened, as Martyn Howard set another festival record with 39-12-0 of barbel the following day!
“For me, that Wychavon Final two years ago was all about catching skimmers, and I managed a lovely run of quality fish by running a bloodworm and a pinkie over a bed of groundbait and joker.
