Hi folks, we have a new Sunday Blog Man...... Steve King
The HLS crew were back to the lovely trinity waters today,
and with 21 fishing Martin had to think about the pegging but the fantastic
Misha had already done this; thanks!
Golden pegs were picked and they were pegs 19,29
The weather was cold ,windy, and Saturday night Bridgewater
had loads of rain so it could be hard !
I asked "Phil guru Beards" if he would like a
pound side bet and he agreed !!!!!! he had a few side bets today.
"that’s why he went home early "
A quick look at the lake and pegs 2,3,6,31,32 had no
wind on them and the rest were choppy !!!!! so into the draw bag and I pulled
out peg 17 ,a great peg but would have the wind in my chops all day , it
is a good carp peg and with pegs 16,18 not in I was a happy bunny.
Peg 17
Pegs 16 & 18
I asked Misha how the peg was fishing and she told me that
last week it was not good but fish have fins.....
My plan was to fish towards peg 18 and also midway
towards peg 16 and a silvers line at 2+3 just in case the carp did not feed and
a method rod to fish in the open water
So at the all in I put some ground bait and pinkie on the
2+3 line and some micros towards peg 18 and maggots towards peg 16,
and out with the method, after a bite less hour on the tip (not to be used
again ) it was time to try the pole. I had a look down the edge on the micro
line and it just sat there!!! Ummm, I will catch on the maggot line towards
peg 16, ummm NO! ..time for a drink and looking around nobody was catching !!!
Time for the silvers me thinks !!! I put a single red on a
20 and placed it over the ground bait line ummm it just sat there after 20 minute
I had a lift bite and a 3oz skimmer in the keepnet .It was hard going but over
the next few hours I had a few small skimmers in the net, I didn’t have a bite
in the margins all day ?????
As the scales went around, it was obvious it was a very low
weight match, Paul and Mike had sneaked a few better silvers in and I was
sure they both beat me but I had just enough ....happy days!
It was a hard day but a close match and to be honest I like
that !
And Phil you owe me a nugget !!!!!!! you tart!!!!
