All twenty who had
booked in turned out for our Sunday outing to Viaduct.......... "A small
miracle". The lads were in good spirits with lots of banter
and leg pulling, even while paying out money to Treasure.
I collected the peg
numbers and the sheet from Badger, Helen drew the golden peg number 129,
and we all went back to the cars for the draw. It all went to plan!!
George was moaning because he had drawn a carp peg he said. Tonto
drew somewhere in the jungle, he could not cast because of the
trees. The Sheriff said if he was drawn next to me he would go
home, and sure enough that's what happened, but he stayed. Well all
I have to say is," look what you old moaners weighed in", but they
were only acting naturally, so they must have been enjoying themselves.
Horny tooted the off,
and from the start there were lots of fish being caught, making the prospect of
another good match. Horny managed to break a section and lost
another in the lake!! Most of the lads thought he ought to be
sectioned himself!! The other thing thing of note was "Sheriff
and the Weeping Willow" that sounds like a good name for a book.
Anyway he pulled out a pesky one and put his rig up the tree; he tugged
on his pole, and now his top section was up the same tree; mutter
mutter mutter, he disappeared and came back with Tonto's sectional weed cutter,
five minuted later the top section of the reed cutter was hanging from the
offending tree. By this time half a dozen of the lads were having a good
laugh, having stopped fishing to see what was coming next. Well the
outcome was, he got everything back, only loosing a 10 shot, the jammy old
git. We have put him in for an audition for the next Tarzan film, he
would make a good Cheetah.
The match went well,
with five topping the ton, and the silvers winning with 49lbs 1oz , can't
complain at that. Thanks to Badger and Colin for weighing us in, we
look forward to our next visit.
Full results below.
On Wednesday it's
Trinity, and Sunday next its Shiplate Main lake.
Keep fishing.
