18.9.24 Sedges Tile

 What a match a proper nail biting conclusion 

Had a breakie with the guys always good in the cafe fully recommend it really good value infact to cheap.. 

On to the draw & I’ve pulled out 40 never had it before so I’ve kept the day so simple I’ve chucked to the tree looking for carp but only getting a few skimmers eventually I’ve had a few carp turn up I’ve fed the the stomps hoping there might be few there but only one the wind was horrendous  - I’ve down two lines down the margin one long left which in hindsight was to long as I can’t really chase them with the wind & a top kit on the right both geared up for paste long story short I’ve lost 10 carp fuming but weighed in a good weight so not to bad Stan & Eric have stole the show well done to you both. I’ve been watching Mike West so go for it & he did & topping up on Silvers well done to everyone. 

See you all soon I totally forgot about it this week that’s why it’s up late Good on you Ross for reminding me on the What’s App 👍👍

Trinity Woodlands 03.8.24

 Trinity Woodlands 

 Could do a turned up for a match drew ok 6hrs later packed up & went home but na I’ll give the write up ago but it’s not going to be a riveting read let me a sure you.. 

So as normal nice & early John D & Tony F were already there had a nice chat with them. I booked on this one as last week they had their memorial match for Terry & Dick & reports were carp were everywhere & a lot of them so why not I thought as I’ve not been here for ages infact 18 month maybe 🤔 

A carp orientated match for me I’ve set up 6 tops for all different styles - paste short hard pellets long on the deck & shallow but the wind ruined that & paste down the edge a bomb rod & pellet wag. 

Most bases covered.

 I did want to be on the near bank as I feel that’s better but not to be peg 12, I’ve had two on the method 2 on the pellet wag & lost one & one down the edge & it was literally only one there I could here Stan down in the corner literally emptying it on the tip I’ve sat on my box & watched Lee slap it was like mill pond down there & well done to those guys 😃I’ve watched Mike W opposite fish paste & in the afternoon it went well for him hooking some good lumps Tony F was on the pellet wag just picking up one every now & then on the bomb aswell. Tony N went off like a train, Eric was just sat there he had the same leg as he fished on a pleasure sesh & had 17 carp - that wasn’t the case today . 

On a positive it was nice to go back & it looked lovely especially Ash that’ll be my next pleasure sesh when I eventually get chance. 

Avalon for me sat with the HLS guys but a Whatchet Club Match see you at Sedges 👍
