The nominated 20 all
arrived early commenting how nice the weather was, but alas not for long
as the match progressed the wind arrived with light rain, and it got much
colder.
Treasure collected the
money and did the business, Horny and Sheriff organised the draw, peg 1 being
the Golden Peg. There was lots of good banter about the draw, then
we were off to the bank to get ready for the off.
I drew peg 13 with the
Sheriff to my left and Tungsten on the right. Pete was next on the
fancied peg eleven, and he had a little smile on his face. Horny
tooted and off we went. At the start I was catching skimmers and roach
plus a nice bream, so by eleven o'clock had near 5lbs of silvers, but
that was it someone threw the switch, and except for a few roach and a bit of
fun with carp near the end I had to settle for another DNW!
Danny next door had an in and out day, ending with 13lbs 12ozs of silvers
which was good for 3rd. Martin Western was 1st with 19lbs 8ozs, and his
brother Shane 2nd with 15lbs. Horny won overall with 111lbs
8ozs. Pete was 2nd with 94lbs10ozs, Treasure with 85lbs 4ozs was 3rd.
It was very noticeable
that the silver weights came from the middle pegs, and carp from the corners.
All in all a good match
with plenty of fish caught and some good craic...On Wednesday we visit Avalon
and Sunday its a return to Trinity Woodlands.
What's the Craic!!!
