Ritchie ,you have posted a picture of the "deep common" that you say you caught this morning from a well known north west water.I have been down to petty to check a few details out because things aren't stacking up .When you consider that it is a day only water someone will have seen you,but they havent .Two users of this forum were in the car park this morning at 1.30 am waiting to go down the lane at 4.30am and you were not there nor did you turn up at anytime during the morning.While they were setting up /putting the kettle on they could here voices and a commotion coming from the opposite bank(out of bounds) in rhoddies .We have been round and found fishing tackle consisting a 2 rod set up,waders, ruebens,unhooking mat and a wet carp sack all stashed away in a peg that you have photographed the common and the "bream" from.The tackle is now with the club and can be claimed !.
Pulling strokes is one thing but to come on the internet giving it the biggun'and not telling the full facts just ain't on,if you want create reputation for catching lots of big fish from the hardest of waters then do it within the rules like everyone else.As far as i am concerned your credability is in tatters.A very sad day !

and the rods still had his new scopex squid red hookbaits on sad day indeed, the monkeys wont have it, they worship him

Well just got the pop corn in and a few beers feck fishing tonight this is more exciting than eastenders!!!!!!!!!!!

Yep, the NM weapons are again worshipping at the feet of the Great One... Ritchie, Ritchie, Ritchie.... they endlessly chant....

I'll ask him next week (he's a likeable, well mannered and respectful lad) as I'm sure I'll bump into him at a certain Shroppie mere....

He pulls more strokes than me even....

Well Well at least the cats out of the bag, i wonder whats next for him i hear most of the anglers sent to coventry end up on bottom flash, who knows he may even catch a record out of there aswell with them yoyo scales.

On the subject of Scales them ones that have been confiscated is there any chance i can buy them i could do with a weight boost here and there.

SY "champion of the remote control"

At least the two rod rule was ahered to

lol

classic tudge how you doing mate.

Not to bad fella... Wish i could get the odd night in fishing though.. could make a bit of a name for me self

YES ..........





but he still left baited rods unatended











ARE U AVIN THAT




one more THING



NOW WHOS THE censored

he wants to get some balls and tell the truth

bad lad

i wouldnt care but he had them off my baited area!!

'The Rat' on NWM says it all really......

Shame though, He would've got away with it if it were'nt for you meddling kids.

What's he going to do now with all those pictures of closed season Mere fish.......

busted

gotta give it to the lad hes got sum balls, he wont fess up

[quote=jONNY bECK]

'The Rat' on NWM says it all really......


bang on go on rat man. he seen the shat face first if u remember

i cant stop laughing at the give the van back

Atleast he wasn't lieing when he said he had it 50yrds out

fook me he puts a picture of his set up on the other site, same buzzers,same matrix indicators

wheres wally










i mean mud

I tell you one thing tho you have to give the guy credit for being the UK's ugliest carp angler of the year.

oh yes he is and that aint no lie !!!




SY " Champion of the remote control"

Well it looks like Ritchie won't (can't?) produce any photo's to identify which peg the fish were caught from, I was just reading the "I love bream...." post on NM's page 4 half way down, and found this......



To be allowed on the pool in May I along with others had to do 4 work parties, but this fellah seems to think it OK to come down and prebait, which is against club rules anyway but to do it when he's not even allowed on the lake and announce it on a public forum?

Looks like this geezer just doesn't give a shite about his fellow anglers.

..I thought we all loved a stroke puller....
...very entertaining

This guy has a total disregard for all the anglers who have and are putting huge effort into the pool.

All those fishing the water atm who have invested time and money in the hope of putting one of these rare fish on the bank in a legitimate situation, will be gutted by ritchie's fish at all cost angling approach.

Very sad that what seems to be such a capable angler has failed to uphold the unwritten 'pool' rules and tainted his reputation for the rest of his fishing days.

This is a very special water which has been part of my life since being a youngster, which has over the years run by gentlemans rule.

The anglers that frequent the water i consider to be some of the most capable and respectfull you would ever meet and all of the regular's bar none have upheld the rules in such a way that made fishing the pool a pleasure.

"The lad who caught the tatton common" has now become "The lad who had a couple of fish from the out of bounds"

And as the topic suggests oh yes it is "One capture too many"

Totally agree with you on that one....

never been so annoyed with an angler as i am with this guy...
turning up at midnight 3 times a week so i can get a decent swim for 5am.... all the while he was filling it in and catching my target fish from the out of bounds during the night..
fair to say i'm quite annoyed...

that common prob won't be out for another two years now and the bream... who knows.... lots of time and money wasted because of this fool

couldnt put it any better myself.... and then go and ram it down our throats how good he is by walking on there and smashing it up, BULLSIHT those of us who fish the gaff know what it takes to catch them fish simple as, he lives by the keyboard ,he dies bye the keyboard. what a load of tosh

I didnt fish oob just because squider didnt see me the comotion in the bushes on the other side must have been a fox or badger or something like that

or a flying pig

Foxes and badgers don't talk fella, also they don't stash fishing gear in the woods

Squider did not see you because you were not there. There was no-one else on the lake until 8am

squidder didnt you get caught doin somate you shud'nt av bin doin on the pool?

enlighten me?!

u ant no realtree are u

OH LOOK the pictures have disapeared of the BREAM & DEEP COMMON off the monkey site

and so has realtree says it all realy

i noticed that too ummmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm strange........!

well and truly busted!!!!!!!!!!

recon so ,mereminser

just as i suspected after seeing the charade of the said charlatan holding up the dead tatton fish trophey shot stylee i always knew that given time and enough rope he would indeed hang hiself

nw angler of the year my ar$e and more fool you all those that voted for him (he shoould be stripped of the title and the trophy be given to the runner up imho)

to add insult to injury he is also now trying to insult the pools regulars intelligence too rather than admitting that he has been sussed.

makes you wonder about all his other captures and was they caught be cheating

or it could have been his mam.............! :)lol

Spoke to a few lads today that have been making an effort on Petty this year, but they don't bother with the internet, so they have been in the dark of what has been going on.. Shocked, Angry,Gutted and the feeling of being totally flea f*cked has been the response of all the Manchester lads. Oh yeah we have all sat there and joked about sitting over the far bank and how easy it would be. Number of factors in this only ever being a bit of a fantasy is the fact that you are cheating yourself, the fish and f*ckin the lads that are putting in real graft on the place up the dry ring. Integruity, respect, etiquette and simple enjoyment of what is going on in the 13 swims on the angling bank haven't even been considered. Easy option, catch at all costs without any thought of the guys doing things by the rules the fish and the lake itself is quite simply an insult. I have buzzed at the effort, enthusiasm and commitment that some of the regulars on this lake have shown this year, they are relentless. Spending time around them and making new friends has made the blanks more easy to take, the place is not easy and everyone knows that they are in the same boat (unless your Errp the tea guzzler)
One early morning a week. 2.30 am wake up, get down there for 4.30 hoping that there is a decent swim available, unknowing that someone has been and burgled the presents from under the xmas tree whilst you have been asleep.


Disgusted .. Manchester.

all robbed by your friendly nw angler of the year toboot

Couldn't of said it better myself tudge

North West c-unt of the year

cookie u lick his ring all last yr

bet the "we love richie" brigade are gutted, there hero is doomed, good weekend all round eh dirt devil!!!!!!

Love it lad it's the future.....

Jambo and hotshot returned to scene of the alledged crime (where the gear was stashed) and took some photos of the backdrop, I'll leave it up to the majority to make a decision





for any doubters anyone can go for a stroll round and see for themselves. Bang to rights.

one of the finest imo

wheres the other pics?






ITS THEREEEEEEE

The plot thickens......

What other pics get them on here

bang to rights

Edited because i have carried on playing spot the difference and have spotted alot of similarities!!!

an he had the front to slate other anglers for fishing the out ov bounds on another cheshire mere wot a cheaky fooker caught bang to rights i think time to be a man an own up

check out the foliage either side of richies head and compare.there is no doubt !!!!!!

A very very sad day when someone feels compelled to go to extreme lengths to APPEAR to look better than his fellow anglers.

NUFF SAID !!!!

He He.. glad i tuned in now. Similarities being Merseyside

no squiecky horrible little cants

110% deffo the same spot

thank you.

Circled for those who may miss them.

and the remains of the flower to the left of the left circle.

Wonder how many he has had?

Cops with cameras Your nicked
Callum will be rippin down the posters as you read

i think the plan was to drip feed the masses a steady flow of awesome fish.

Callum will be rippin down the posters as you read [/quote]

desperate to become a star

[/quote]

yeah i reckon callum has took him dry on more than one occasion

Excellent pictures there, really nails the coffin lid down, i am very very interested to see what sort of explanation will come.


Be a man and admit to whats been goin on surely you owe the lads that at least after shafting them dry.

Just what i was saying to a mate mud. Wonder just how many he has had and was slowly feedin them in the best ones first i would guess. Probably ignoring the 20s that some have worked so hard for on a more level field.

I afraid the monkeys "big cheese" has been nailed with a humungus series 5, Ive been to the site of the alledged site with me fellow mucker, seen the evidence first hand, studied the pics before being passed on to be posted and its 100% certain he is a fraud.
And theres a lesson, fish for yourself and enjoyment and not the glory.....or a van

couldn't agree more.

whats the references to a van pardon my ignorance ?

He won a van in a mag competition for catching the tatton common. Good to see what some will go to for the glory.

I know this is slightly of subject but i have this disturbing image of Jambo and Hotshot in my head Jambo as "Sherlock Holmes" and Hotshot as "Dr Watson".

jambo "It's elementry my dear hotshot"

hotshot "Indeed jambo indeed"

a van ??

all off the back of cheating eh ?

ffs whats carp angling coming to ?

LMAO

fpmsl
case closed

looks like NM's have spat their dummy out and took their ball home, all threads now deleted

i cant wait to hear from realtree think it will be one to remember

I once fished Grey Mist without a permit and caught three!

that was a fluke

cheatin dirty fecker
he deserves a good hiding that lad

whats the chances of a mangrove ticket mr selman?

[img]http://[/img]

just cant belive the stupidity of it all for what a few pats on the back on the forums,someone said fish for yourself that is spot on this is just glory hunting at all costs sureley you cant feel he same sense of achievement i wouldnt.doing that you might aswell go the whole hog and electro net them out.plus it was never gonna take columbo to solve this case.

A sad day for the Cheshire scene ....

Richie certainly seemed to be on a role over he last few years, some may argue all this is sour grapes, jealousy, greened eyed monster, get the new boy of the lake he's catching too many....like what was thrown around after the tatton controversy. The only problem with these "captures" is, he's tried to blag the wrong people, not glory worshippers but very very good anglers who have have been around done theit time and fished the lake for years and caught the fish (so no greed eyed monster) they no the lake and to a point what time of year certain fish will show up. The Bream was an almost unblievable slice of luck and I took my turban off to the guy despite a niggling doubt that it was banked legaly, the common capture however was just a no no, as many of the old crew know, it doesnt come out, last day cature was 6 years ago. He couldnt resist another injection of praise and bone smoking from his followers and that was his down fall, greed for glory.
It the people who have fished the place honestly for a good few years i feel sorry for, coming down after work at 6pm for there only sesh of the week knowing they will get a crap swim or at best get to double up with a mate and blast a few singles out in the hope of getting lucky. Then there's the lads who get up at stupid oclock to be first in the que for a good swim, these guys are dynamo's. If you think you can go on the lake and take a short cut to success, then your taking all these guys for c11nt5. Shame on you.

Blimey ! go away for a while and miss all the madness

Really taking the pish this time

Cheers
Saul

Just as we thought, he did catch more than the common and the Bream. A few months ago I sent him some pics of the fish I caught off the lake a few years ago.
Ive just logged into the N.M and had a pm off him dated the 3rd of july (thurs) with a pic (now deleted) of a fish, saying "how big was this when you had it", it wont have been the common coz thats one I didnt have and the 3rd is before he caught it ! obviously I dotn know which fish it was or how big, but it proves he had more, as I dont doubt because the far side is where the fish generaly live, hence why "no one" fishes round there.

Which/where/what clubs is this lad in?

not many now i should think

Well I should imagine that is the end of his short "Angling" Career !

heh ritchie if you wanna sell yur gear (well what you av left) pm me al gi you a good price an a promise a wont tell anyone else honest

Realtea who? Runnin scared! There'll be no explanation or apology.

He's even deleted all his photo bucket snaps (realtree_2007).

Clubs he is a member of should think about whether he remains a member and the precident they may be setting. After all the Tatton crap he either learnt his lesson or took it to the next level. Next level rule breaking has been acheived, so whats next? Chandaleer?

I would feel sorry for him, slagging and acusations aren't nice and can cause unwanted stress but after the Tatton fiasco he obviously has no cares or humility and is one hard faced MO FO.

If anyone thinks "why is He commenting on this", well I fished the work parties and am annoyed that some censored was feeding the fish in their Homes at the end of the month. They'd spawned and recovered and were ready for a feed, shame they got it about 280 yards away!

Surely joe must scrap his nw angler of the year title

get your cup back joe he is a cheating cant

caught the tatton fish in the day did we?
my big fat spotty arse you did
left it for dead you cheecky cant

Yep definatley anything he won should be handed back as it was,nt won Fair and Square. You Cheat - You get caught - You face up to the Consequences in my book.

I Can't believe it, I have only just authorised fishing in Rushden somebody has been red carded already!

i have read all of the posts and thought i had seen all threads about this but one thing iam confussed about is what proof do we have that rich caught the tatt common during the night ????

thanks

smokey

Some people have doubted his claim to have hooked, landed weighed/photographed it within half an hour of starting fishing and then deciding to leave the lake sharpish 'cos all his previous takes had been before 7.30am' - this is after he said he had pulled a sickie to go fishing for the day ? Unkind tongues also claimed that the distressed state of the fish was as a result of being sacked in shallow, weedy water....

Smokey,
Can anybody really be that naive !!! The lad has now been caught red handed has been exposed no point even trying to defend him and his previous actions.

Has anbody got in touch to put his side? Surely he must know whats going on? Obviuosly as he has not come forward it can mean only one thing - GUILTY AS CHARGED.

why dont u sod off back where u come from tool its fair to say some thing is a miss as realtree has vanished with no word or nothin to defend his self centred actions


DAN

ahhh once again people assume wrongly .... iam not defending no one i asking a question ... o sorry your to ignorant to see that i forgot !!! so answer the question what proof does anyone have that he caught the tatton common at night .... i agree bang to rights on the petty fish so iam not defending ....!

Please no assumption PROOF only ......

smokey

wot proof av u that he caught it in the day?

ps the only thing i saw him get out his car on the said morning is his trakker beenie mat

ARHH YOUR AN ARSEE BUGGER lol .... lol i dont , thats what iam saying ..... iam after proof that he did catch it at night ..... as up to yet hes only bang to rights on petty .... so instead of us all assumin this and that ...let see the proof ... thats all iam sayin so no need to get on ya high horse muka ..... nor to insult as that just shows how you think .... so take a step back read my post again and you will see iam not deffending anyone , simply asking a question !!!!! lol ... your post made me laugh tho lol

and was this at tatton or Petty ?

He had his say on the NM threads. His version is that the fish were caught from the Northwich AA side and the tackle found is not his. I would provide a link, but the defenders of the weak & guardians of truth who moderate the NM site have decided to delete the thread.

tp

pmsfl... defenders of the weak now that is fkin funny lol

Chaps can we keep this thread serious insult and threat free because i would not like to see it locked or removed because someone gets to excited ,there is plenty to discuss and go over lets keep on track

Cheers for that.

so my question stand can anyone give me proof rich had the tatton common at night ???

smokey

didn't i see the fella in the Mainline news with a tatton fish?
is he now one of Nashy's boys? Shouldn't he be reported to his sponsors?

smokey read the tatton thread seems he has been caught out there to

Smokey, here's a short Tatton story

Through gates at 7.00 (when opens)

To swim, cast out, 25 mins thrash, weigh, photos, pics, video and send back.

Leave 7.35 (when spotted)

It'd be like Benny Hill gettin the weighing, photos and pics/vid done.

http://www.liverpoolecho.co.uk/liverpool...00252-20528189/

Convinced? Or are you numb?

ahh thats makes it very clear , thanks muka lol

smokey

Certainly some damning evidence with these pictures!
Always found the fella a nice guy to speak to but you can't argue with the evidence!
What was the unhooking mat Tatton reference? as I'm not too aware of the rules / process there guys?

(And before you aim and fire - just asking a question gents - no defending or challenges here! Just new to the forum!)

Ahhh all goes to prove,theres nowt funny than folk, especially when they fish for carp.

Was he a member of the cheshire all stars ???

i never saw any rods in his hand the mornin i found the fish only a matt which leads me to beleive he only came in tp to picture his scary 46 lb carp which he throw back

smokey

We are mate its you that needs to get a reality check

Calling Ritchie Latham !!!

C'mon walk the mile of shame, lets have it i'm major interested to hear his version of events.

Maybe his tackle fell out of the back of the van and rolled 300yds round the other side ?

And just maybe then his rigs accidently fell into the lake and by sheer miracle also found there way into the bottom lip of these carp ?

I'm sure that he can dream a good one up so c'mon lets av it!!!

'Walk the mile of shame'

SMOKEY:fill in you profile and stop hiding behind your PC. Just accept that all the evidence points to foul play and the captors silence speaks volumes...tut tut tut.

PS

I have met ritchie and he is a nice lad who I voted for NW angler of the year..so I have no personal beef with him.

for askin questions hmmm OK , YEA sorry i thought thats what forums were for ..... asking questions ....... is FW not like that , no .... my mistake sorry .... forgot if your not in the click then you cant speak .....

SORRY TO ALL FW MEMEBERS FOR ASKING QUESTIONS .....

smokey

mmm Smokey really funny, some guy thinks he can fish lakes when you are not supposed to be on them and in places you can't fish them !!! Now I might be wrong here but are you not a Balliff ? If that is the case then surely you will realise that breaking these rules could put fishing on the lakes in question under threat for everyone !! Whoooo that is such a f*cking laugh !!!!

and stop pmin me means how many pms? u dope fueled idiot

hmm iam not hiding mate . never have and never will , lostmy log in details for when i was on here b4 so had to join back up today ...... but you are right teh evidence does suggest wrong doin .... i asked a simple question and got slated for it ..... now correct me if iam wrong if your unsure on sumthin do you not ask about it ..... i never defended or even suggested what ritch has done was OK .... petty doesnt interest me ,,,it was tatton i was asking about .... but as normal some ones always there to throw stones lol ... re -read any post i have put from start to fish i was only asking for the facts .......

smokey ... that weed has really numbed your head fella
