There were just ten of
Dad's Army fishing Avalon, on this damp but warm day. Ron looked
after us with a good selection of pegs. The Golden Peg was number
five, which was drawn by Tivi Dave. Dave had one of
those senior moments and left the wheels of his trolley at home!! he did
reassure me he is not off his trolley?
I settled all the business and the draw was completed, so it was off to set up. Bad
Boy George drew peg nineteen, and virtually ran to his peg, but sneaky Bob
drew peg twenty, so we would see?
I shouted all in, and it
was two small balls of ground bait with some sweetcorn to see what would
happen. Most of the lads were fishing for silvers, so overall
would be between Ninja, Tonto, and the Chef. That was how it
finished, with Ninja weighing 108lbs 5ozs from peg ten.
My day started slowly
with just one very small skimmer after an hour. The bad news was, I
knew George was catching steadily and was quietly confident; but my day
got better, my net fuller, so I became hopeful.
At the weigh in George
pulled out my net and the scales went round to 43lbs 10ozs. Next it
was George, he had split his fish into two nets, but after my rough maths he totaled 33lbs 8ozs. I had a smile, I'd beaten him from the next
peg.
It was a wet but very rewarding day, let's keep doing it!!
On Sunday we visit Viaducts on Scary Cary which is full.
Wednesday next we tackle Landsend and I hope for a good
turnout, please ring!!
I like this fishing
