Avalon 13.12.2020

 A week before the Christmas Match saw a gathering of 17 with 1 cry off on the morning. With the forecast being of a wet and windy day I'm sure that probably influenced the decision of the non attendee. 

A quick consultation with fellow anglers and we decided to fish on the road side bank, this would be much easier for getting to our pegs and the wind behind our backs.

Most anglers in buoyant mood but you always get those that have to have a moan. It was good to see Simon Gardener back having been away for much of the season.

There was no draw this week on the Friday evening as Vic decided that he would like to do the draw on the day so all anglers were waiting for the 8.30 draw. With everyone ready were were waiting for Sausage to arrive and sure enough, loaded with Des Ships left over ground bait from their recent outing at Viaduct, we were set to go.
