Jack’s the lad at Chester’s Lake

THE junior section of Dorchester & District Angling Society held their fifth match of the year on Chester’s Lake at Whitemoor Fishery, near Wimborne.

The lake, a firm favourite for the youngsters, is full of small carp making the sport quite prolific at times.

Nine juniors took part on a hot day and Jack Copp crept up the championship table achieving a convincing win with 32lb 9oz.

And Kit Freeman claimed a fine third place with a polefished 22lbs 7ozs.

The event was run as part of the Angling Trust’s Get Fishing campaign and anglers were treated to refreshments and extra prizes thanks to Tom at Whitemoor.

The therapy farm provides a relaxed environment in which Matthew and others feed the sheep, goats, alpacas, chickens and ducks.

Every day is tailored to how the farm’s visitors are feeling and what they’re able to cope with at that moment.

Matthew’s favourite experience is walking the miniature donkeys and Shetland ponies.

Austin Scott Kennedy, with a 100% podium run still intact, was second with 26lb 13oz.
