Wednesday 20th December 2017 - Sedges Tile

Fifteen of Dad's Army were mustered for our attack on Sedges Tile Lake, this included two new recruits Mustard and Garters, who were trying to make sense of what the rest of us were talking about!!    This was impossible, you would need an Enigma machine.    Anyway they settled in O.K.

Jamie and Denise helped us to get sorted and supplied us with hot drinks.   Danny helped with the draw, this made my job easier,  leaving me free to do the money.

After all the business was completed the draw was made, with Sausage getting the Golden Peg twenty two.    We were then off to our positions.   I drew twenty eight, which was between Chef Pete and the Sheriff, this was the peg I drew last Saturday, but I only had a four bites.

At the off it wasn't  long before Big Bird,  fishing the waggler, was catching silvers and having the best of what was a very hard day's fishing.   Danny got lucky with a bonus fish, this was a tench 3 lbs plus.   Peter on peg thirty got a carp in the last half hour , which got him second.

It was a hard initiation for our two new lads, but the weather was kind, much warmer than recent weeks,  let's hope it continues.   Our next match is on Wednesday the 27th December at Trinity Woodlands,  followed by a visit to Emeralds on the 31st.    Come on let,s end the year with some good results.

I would like to wish all our members , and all the people who have become friends connected to the fisheries we use.  Also a final thanks to Steve and Somerset Angling for the  prizes they donated to our Fur and Feather.

                                A very happy Christmas and great New Year.

P.S.      Seasons Greetings to all our Blog readers, I know a vast majority of you are as crazy as us, never mind the weather let's catch some fish, and long may it last!!
