Weatherwise not the best
start to 2016, but 20 of HLS arrived to fill all the pegs on the lake, and empty
it of fish!!! Thats a laugh. Everyone had plenty of chat
while Denise made drinks and the peg numbers were sorted. My
Treasurer, having recovered from the flu, collected the money and sorted the pools
money. The draw was made and Danny put names to the respective peg
numbers. Danny drew his resident peg 4 , and, feeling confident, I drew
peg 12, not over happy with that I trudged though the mud and rain to prepare
to fish. On my right was Mike Bend it like Bendell, and to my left Big
Bird Rob Eagle, giving me plenty of competition.
Horny tooted at 9-45
giving us an extra 15 minutes of fishing. I took out the ledger
rod, which brought out comments about which end to use, I ignored these, then
had to ask Mike if I could lend a feeder! Mike and I perservered
with the feeder for an hour and a half, then we got desperate and tried
everything else, to no avail.
The weather improved,
and Danny and I did the honours with the weigh in, which resulted in a first
time winner overall, Dick Hurford, with a commendable 84lbs 10ozs off peg
10. Well done Dick. The full results are below.
Emerald pools on
Wednesday next, followed by Trinity on Sunday 10th. I look forward to
seeing you then.
Don't forget the AGM FRIDAY 8th at 7-30pm 37 CLUB
