16 members turned out to fish this match which had a slightly different format to usuall due to the match being held over two different lakes. This would make for an interesting experience. 8 fished on Lou’s and 8 fished on 4 Island and this was the split in sections.
On 4 Island, Trev come 3rd in section off peg 2. With Peg 1 & 10 out, he had plenty of water to go at however it appeared most of the better fish were in the main part of the lake. He had a busy day trying to feed off swarms of small F1s, carp and tench however the better fish simply didn’t arrive. He weighted in a respectable 78lb. New man Ian drew in-form peg 8, the only ‘open water’ peg on a very secluded, feature packed and some what pretty lake. Ian concentrated fishing paste to the edge of the lilly pads to the right hand side for a weight of 105lb 2oz for 4th over all and 2nd in section. Almost opposite Ian, Jonty sat on Peg 3. Concentrating fishing pellet shallow at 11m, his net of F1’s went 108lb 2oz marginally beating Ian to the section and taking 3rd in the match.
Over on Lou’s Tony’s weight of 116lb was enough for 2nd in section and 2nd in the match. Ron won the section and the match with a superb 123lb. Ron caught the majority of his fish shallow on pellet however a switch to the margins later on proved worth while as he caught a few better fish in the closing stages.
Result
1st – Ron 123lb
2nd – Tony 116lb
3rd – Jonty 108lb
4th – Ian 105lb
