Peg 22 for me and our love hate relationship. Spent 30 minutes clearing the margin as best I could with a pen knife and my aches and pains, really needed finishing off lake side. Need to get up tight to the bank to improve Carp the catch.
Due to limited time didn't set up the waggler which was possibly a mistake.
Caught Perch short on single LR over GB for about an hour before the Carp arrived. Stupidly stayed on the light rig in search for more silvers, losing 5 Carp and trashing 2 rigs in the reeds before changing to the heavy paste rig landing 6 decent Carp to 10 lb without further losses. The issue was getting in close enough to the bank otherwise resulted in liners. Bites were immediate once tight in.
The match was won by Leyton Palmer (pictured) with 117 ln 14 oz from peg 14. Leyton caught down his RH margin using maggot over potted maggot. Well done matey. Some say he can out moan Barny!!
The silvers was won by Gerry Welsh with 14 lb 15 oz from peg 21. Gerry caught on wag and mag shallow, 3/4 over. Most of his skimmers came in the first hour. Well done matey.
A few hot sweaty anglers about today.
Weigh Sheets: (peg numbers are wrong from 24 to 16 - The Banker from Swindon on peg 24!
