17 turned out to fish our latest club match and dispite a brisk southerly wind and a few showers plenty of fish were caught.
Tony on peg 2 had a busy day catching a mixed bag which mainly consisted of crucian carp for a level 30 lb, this catch earnt him 3rd in section. Lewis on peg 7 decided on an out and out waggler shallow attack, a decision which saw better quality fish fall consistently to his shallow fished maggot over loose fed caster. Fishing at about 15m out, Lewis caught steadily all day to record a excellent 38lb 12oz for 2nd in section and 2nd overall. Ray T on peg 5 won the section and match overall. His 38lb of mixed fish plus a beautiful margin caught common carp of 16lb 4oz gave him a total weight of 54lb 4oz and his first match win at the club. A win which is likely to be one of many to come.
In the other section Trev drew fancied peg 16 but the pegs resident big fish eluded him on this occasion, however he did manage a very respectable 34lb using his trusted chopped worm approach. A few pegs away on pegs 13 & 14 sat Ron & Jonty. Again the big fish lines didn't result in fish in the net for either of them. Ron's weight of 25lb was not enough to win the peg-to-peg battle as Jonty weighed in 36lb of pellet caught skimmers/crucians for a section win and 3rd overall.
Top 3:
Ray Torrington - 54lb 4oz
Lewis Harvey - 38lb 12oz
Jonty Wislon - 36lb
Speci-cup entry:
Ray Torrington, Commom Carp, 16lb 4oz, cat meat.
