The sun was shining and
the birds were twittering? What am I on about , silly old fart.
Anyway 21 arrived to test their skills? on this popular venue; they all looked
very keen and sharp?
Treasure was taking the
money and Horny was making a lot of noise, like a cow in labour, but what's
new? Vic sorted the peg numbers with two Golden Pegs 3 and
26, and it all ran very smoothly.
I drew peg 16, and was
happy with an empty peg to my right and Treasure to my left, this promised
a quiet day's fishing. As I had fished on Saturday, I decided on an
easy day in the margins after listening to the local advice I should do
OK. My bait was caster and 4mm soft pellet, with a little ground bait
feeding regularly.
Horny tooted and we got
to it, Treasure had a carp within minutes, and I thought good weights, but this
was not the case. I had a busy day catching mostly roach with
an odd bonus fish. I am sure I would have done a lot better if I
had taken Vic and Leigh's advice, as it was I weighed 16lbs 3ozs of silvers with
not a carp in sight; enough for third silvers but it was enough for
the Nasty Old Sheriff, Tivi Dave, and Bolton George's nuggets; I'm not
smirking, but that made my day.
Simon won overall and the golden peg with
55lbs 14ozs and Pete the Chef cooking up a second. It was a good match, but the carp were not showing in numbers.
Wednesday it's Trinity Ash, and next Sunday Sedges Tile. There is room
on Wednesday.
Get hooked!!
