Thursday 13/07/2023 - Ray's Rip Off - Windmill Fishery - Match Lake

Another of Ray Bazeley well run Thursday matches, he always manages to keep the attendances at 18.

Pegs 23 to19 are not current match winners but give a decent days fishing. Drew peg 22. As expected had good days fishing catching small silvers for 4 hours switching to paste in the margin landing 7 carp to 10 lb loosing 5 foulers!! Bigger the fish the higher probability of fouling?

Barny (pictured) did the double  - silvers and overall. Well done matey. I could hearing his scissors' clicking drowning out the Weed Warblers.

Lynol Legg was fishing today so asked if he had sold his Goretex jacket which I was interested in. He had. I asked him why no Bib and Brace. He explained he wanted the legs taken up by a few inches so contacted Halkon Hunt who wanted 1 month turn round, so Lynol went to a local shop giving instructions on the 2 inch leg shortening. He went back and found they had cut the legs off at the knees!! Difficult not to laugh. Apparently his now summer attire. There's one angler I can think of they might now fit.

Had company today, a young Robin who was already wise to the potential of getting a feed from anglers. Came back 4 times and if ignored would tap it's feet.
