Sunday 21st January 2018 - Trinity Woodlands

Well it was back to Bridgwater for the weekly HLS match and boy was it wet!! the weather girls were right when they said "Rain all day" , it didn't stop all day until 3 o'clock which was handy for the weigh in !!..

So with my pools paid me and lord C when for walk around the lake, one end was flat calm and the other was choppy

We both wanted peg 2 or any corner pegs as there always some carp in these areas or in the middle for the silvers ..i was one of the last to draw and got peg 32 so a short walk ..I had Bolton George next door on 31 and he was telling me that he was the best silvers angler in the club and also he would beat me today ...so i asked if he would like to fish for a pound and he agreed as we both thought we would be out of the frame on the silvers front today ...also i felt bad for beating him at emeralds for the golden peg !! well for about 5 seconds ...

Golden peg today were pegs 2 "Paul" (Paxo baits) and peg 21 (top silvers man Danny)  and i thought that they would go today !!

I had a few spare pegs  to my left so i felt i had a bit of room, i could see Paul on peg 2 (Paxo baits) and he was going to fish for carp down to his right ...John was on peg 6 and Rob on 8 ..i set up a bomb and pellet  (never had a bite ) and a rig for 13m and 1 for down the edge (never had a bite) ..

The guru tart was on a real flyer again !! peg 17 ...Martin was on peg 10 and i fancied him to have a few silvers ....

At the all in i put 6 balls of ground bait on the 13m line and went out on the tip ..after 30 minute i got bored so had a look on the pole line ...first bite was a 10lbs carp so happy day ..Paul (Paxo baits) on peg 2 was doing  magic tricks were he had 2 meters of elastic out of his pole and the carp would some how unhook itself ?? he was so good at it he did it 4 times in a row !!!

Tony on peg 15 was having a great day catching carp down the edge towards peg 16 and the guru tart was also having a few (solid!!!) Rob on peg 8 started slow but was in the groove after a hour and was catching well ..George was showing me why he's the best silvers angler in the club catching white bait !!! and Paul (Paxo baits) was still doing his magic tricks (8 carp) .

The rain was a real pain today but that's winter fishing and it's better than sitting at home

I ended my day with 3 carp and bits and a broken landing net handle!!! but would it beat George ???

At the all out i packed up fast and put my wet gear in the car.. myself, Danny and lord C did the scales and started with Paul (paxo baits) who had 29-9 and a lot of scales !!! Rob on peg 8 had a fantastic day catching 34 lbs of skimmers (top man!!) then lord C had 7-10 of silvers ..Tony on peg 15 had 56lbs of carp and then the guru tart on fancied peg 17 had 123-9 of carp sorry i mean 23-9 !!!then it was Bolton George  !!!! he put on 4-11 of white bait and one carp which was  13-13lbs  i was thinking i would be handing over a pound to him but i had 6-4 lbs of silvers to nick another pound from the best silvers angler in the club !!! also my 3 carp went 28-0lbs ...
