It was Sunday, the sun
was shining, and Summerhayes Longs was the venue. A measly fifteen
turned out, but at least they were all keen to get to grips with it.
Peter was talking his
usual CARP or have I spelt that wrong? but he was on good form, the bacon
butties and hot drinks kept coming. He selected the pegs to be
fished and pegs twenty eight and seventeen were the golden ones, which were
drawn by Tonto and Dick.
I did all the business,
paid Pete, and we made the draw. I drew thirty eight, which was not
ideal. I had Martin to my left and Terry on the right.
There were lots of small roach and rudd present, but I was reliably informed,
by the person who talks a lot of C---P, that I could catch skimmers ?
Six hours later I was
thinking, why did I not stay with the roach, as George won the silvers with
just 6lbs 13ozs, and the Cockerel was second with 5lbs 14ozs!! Oh
what could have been?
The overall was won by
Martin with 100lbs 6ozs of small carp, and the Man with No Name second with
97lbs 8ozs and the Chef third with 85lbs
Except for the shortage
of silvers it was a good match, with plenty of fish caught.
On Wednesday its Sedges and Sunday Avalon. We are always receptive
to phone calls.
Let's be having you
