New match record set in Summer 2005 Open Series
Dwayne Seed set a new match record in the Summer 2005 Open Series when he bagged an incredible haul of Carp to 121lb and mixed silver fish for a massive final weight of 183lb-04oz.

Dwayne fished up in the water over the far shelf on Maggot for the first half of the match and switched to surface fished pellet during the second half to achieve this fantastic result which was also his personal best match weight.

Dwayne is a team member of the Greenridge Farm Match Group and feels confident that he can crack the 200lb barrier in the 2006 Summer Open Series.

For information about matches please see our match page for more details.

The Rock n Roll fisherman lands at Greenridge
Greenridge Farm recently welcomed the Rock and Roll fisherman Aki Morimohto to the waters.  The infamous Rock and Roll star from Japan, who is lead singer of Japan's Electric Eel Shock is also a columnist for Japans #1 fishing magazine Basser Magazine.

In the last 4 years Aki has toured the worlds biggest and best festivals and after his 3 month USA tour, Aki popped down to Greenridge to try the his hand at the floating crust.  Features on MTV and crowds of 1000's is part of the every day life of Aki.  However, in his spare time Aki likes to take a break with a rod and reel and chill out by the lakeside.  He's famous in Japan for being the "Rock and Roll fisherman" and we ensured the heavy metal icon that if he joined us for just a few hours he'd catch a carp and sure enough...

Aki fished floating crust in a short afternoon/evening session and landed this wonderful mirror, which was Aki's biggest fish in the UK to date.  The pictures were taken, the fish was returned to the water then Aki headed back to London, where he was staying for two days before heading off back to the rock and roll stages in Holland.

Greenridge Farm Coarse Fisheries will be featured in Aki's column in Basser Magazine, around August time.   For those of you who want to grab a copy of Basser magazine, it's available throughout Japan.  Get us one while you're there please...
