How about that I drew the same peg as last week, Campbell peg 127. My plan was to either join the Slayers and fish the pellet waggler or focus at 10 metres with corn over corn. Both should avoid the millions of nuisance fish (I don't like the term nuisance because there has been times when I have won money with 4oz!). I potted 250 ml of corn at 10 metres and started on the waggler. It was generally quiet around the lake and I was itching to try the corn, so out went the pole and in two put ins I had a 2lb Tench and an 8lb Common. I started then to drip in corn through the kinder pot and had another 8 pounder. Barry Fitchew (Fox tackle rep) started to catch well on the waggler, so I had another thrash and caught two Carp. The Willow trees where shedding their seed shucks which was catching in the rod rings and causing casting problems, so good excuse to go back on the pole, which lead to a couple more Tench and three more Carp for a total of 54lb 3oz. How lucky can you get - this took the section by triple default and a pick up of £25.
Roger young won the match (again!) from peg 130 with 157lb 15oz on the straight lead. They call him the Purple Plonker - I understand the Purple bit - but he is no Plonker when it comes to fishing this venue.
Shaun Townsend (picture top right with his excellent net of Tench - nearly smiling) took the Silvers with 64lb 14oz of Tench. Shaun caught on caster into his end margin.

4. Barry Fitchew 88-01-0 peg 115
5. Shaun Townsend 85-02-0 peg 135
