Sunday 5th February 2017 - Shiplate Main Lake

It started cold and windy, but as the day went on it got better in all aspects.  Horny was showing remarkable control, doing a good job checking people in and taking names before passing them on to Treasure, who relieved them of their money

There were nineteen fishing today, the Golden Peg was 13, which was drawn by Tivi Dave.   I was on peg 15; I could have done without the long haul.   I didn't have much bait, but Sausage supplied some caster; thanks mate.

Horny tooted and with not much feed at 11 metres, double pinkie on the hook off we went.   George was on my right, and I could see the bad old Sheriff across the lake on peg 1.   We all started catching small roach from the off, but as time passed it became obvious Danny had better quality.

Carol, Steve and Reggie weighed us in, starting with myself, I had mustered 4lbs 12ozs of small roach, I'd had a very busy day.   George on the next peg had 5lbs 6ozs,  Sausage was next with 8lbs 6ozs which was good enough for third silvers.   Danny did the business AGAIN, winning overall with 24lbs 14ozs, another installment on the suit???
