Sunday 29/06/2008 - Carps AC - Summer Individual Series - Round Four - Landsend Fishery

I am not superstitious (ask Bob Warren), however since I have been saluting single Magpies I have been doing well. I saluted three on the way to this match but must have missed a couple! I drew peg 24 on Match Lake and was expecting to catch a good bag of Silvers - failing this its a noted Carp swim. The upshot was that I started OK at 10 metres on paste with three Tench and two Skimmers - then struggled for Silvers. Switch to the end margin for Carp and nothing other than one foul hooker. Spent rest of the match scratching around for bits with caster. I ended the match with 14lb 14oz of Silvers and two Carp for a total of 21lb 8oz. I think I am now too far behind to consider any of the main overall league prizes.
Andy Neale (pictured top right) completed what must be the perfect weekend as yesterday Andy qualified for the Fish-O-Mania final at Moorland Farm and today won the match. Andy drew Match Lake peg 13 and finished with 172lb 14oz of Carp. Andy fished in to the end margin and down to his right margin using over pellet - WELL DONE MATEY. Carps AC members will undoubtedly be supporting you on the big day at the Arena.

The Silvers was won by Tom Thick on Match Lake peg 4 with 34lb 4oz. Tom fished bits of worm over chopped worm and caster.
