ESAA MONTHLY LEAGUE 2012
HOW THE MONTHLY LEAGUE WORKS
The League fishes the first Wednesday of each month. It’s great fun to fish and all are welcome. Entry is £3 of which £1 goes to club funds, £1 to the monthly winner and £1 to the annual pool. The annual winner is the one with the highest accumulated score and wins the ‘Tom Shepard Trophy’ and a percentage of the annual pool. The league is so easy to fish as you’re awarded points for each sizable fish. Different points for different species and the top scorer on the night wins that leg. Match points for the league tables are then awarded thus: 8 points for first, 6 for second, 4 for third and 2 for everyone else fishing on the night.ESAA Minimum sizes apply but no need to weigh your fish unless you reckon it’s a specimen. Other ESAA fishing rules apply as usual but just for the monthly league, no feathers please. Fishing times are 7.30pm - 11pm GMT months while BST months are fished 7.30pm - 11.30pm. Sign-in is at the chosen venue from 7pm to 7.15pm. We weigh-in straight after the end of fishing and that’s when we choose the next month’s venue. The first match of 2012 is at Budleigh Salterton on 4th January and signing in at the top of Steamer Steps. Probably only fishing to 10.30pm on the first leg with the weigh-in in the Salterton Arms straight after: which is nice! Further info about the league is available from league organizers, Dave Thoburn on 07795517138 or Rich Gray on 07807619698. Tight Monthly League Lines for 2012!

Results will be published on the website at the beginning of the next month on the league table, which will be for all to see.
2. Fishing Boundaries are Avon and Somerset, Dorset and Devon and Cornwall.
3. Fish anytime and anywhere you want within boundaries. You can include fish caught during competitions as well.
4. All fish caught must be from the shore. No fish caught from a boat or kayak will be allowed. Rules from Angling Trust apply with regards to what is a boat or non shore fishing.
5. You can catch as many fish as you like of the delegated species, but only the heaviest will count at the end of the month of each species.
6. Caught species must be reported to the recorder no later than 1st of the next month. Fish must be caught within the month specified.
To report the fish just call or text Ade Jones on the following numbers: 01395 265848 (Answer machine available) or 07939002018. I will reply to all texts to confirm I have received your message. I only need the weight of the fish. I will do all calculations for you.
7. All scales should be checked regularly to enable clarity of fish weights, at least certifiable for specimen fish are required.
8. Any fish specimen size and above must be witnessed. No photograph required (although one may be needed for specimen award). Fish below specimen size may be reported without a witness. All fish to count must be sizeable to AT sizes
9. Specimen fish must still be reported in the same way as normal. The league will not do this for you; this is if you want your award.
10. The competition is for fun and solely relies upon the full trust of all anglers.
11. There will be a trophy for the winner.
12. The competition will run from 6th January until 31st December 2012.
13. There will be bonus fish this year which you can weigh in one on the month where applicable; they will be on the chart .Bonus fish will only count if you have caught at least one of the designated species already in that month.
14. There may be one fishing competition in July for bonus points. It will be a day fish. Date and venue to be confirmed.
15. If a bonus fish is the same as species for that month you can weigh in 2 of that species, i.e. Bass in April.
