Fieldsend, 25 September 2010
Despite the changable and cold weather in the few days prior to the match, venue regular Ray Sladden stil believed the fish would be shallow. He was proved right as he won the match with 51lb 8oz of carp fishing the bagging waggler. He did feel the close proximity of Martin Spragg feedind the pellet waggler next door did effect his catch rate.
Jonty was 2nd. He fished the method feeder short to start with an nicked a few early fish before switching to the pellet waggler. The sun and ripple made location the "mushy" impossible so he relied on the fish pulling the rod tip round. After a few fish the bites dropped off so he decided to concentrate on the short pole and tempted a dozen or so fish in the last hour. His total weight was 50lb dead.
Martin fished the lond pole shallow with caster for a net mainly consisting of ide to 1.5lb. His hard earned 45lb was enought for 3rd.
Result
Ray S - 51lb 8oz
Jonty - 50lb
Martin - 45lb

Result
1 - Pete Dighton 14lb 8
2 - Weasel 13lb 9
3 - Ron 13lb 2
4 - Trev 9lb
then the weights dropped off, some pegs really struggled, so much so Steve Goodrum and Martin Sprag dnw.
The rumour is the lake recently had quite a big fish kill, no chub or any bream were caught.
Ron started off well catching the odd odd crucian and decent roach on the worm, Weasel was the first to start whipping but his fish were small. Trev joined in soon after but was not catching as well. After maybe a couple of hours Pete started fishing the whip and his fish were notably of a better stamp with the odd netter.
As the match continued Pete was really getting into them and those who tried to catch up did so too late.

Summer League, Fish-off
For the first time since the competition began, there was a tie on points count-back in the Summer League. Both Jonty & Tony tied on 37 points; both having 2 match wins, 1 section win and 2 section seconds each from the 5 counting matches. When there is a tie in this manner a fish-off is to be arranged between the members involved.
Jonty and Tony discussed at length on the date and venue for the fish-off and, as their was only 1lb between them at the club match earlier in the year, they settled on a 4 hour evening match on Snake Lake at Head Fen to suit their respective diaries.
As the lake was empty, Marcus, the venue manager, suggested using pegs 6 & 18.
A coin was tossed and Tony claimed peg 6. He fished pellet shallow for the first part of the match before switching to the margins with pellet/corm over pellet and ended up with 39 fish for 90lb.
By default Jonty was left with peg 18. In the first 2 hours he had 25 fish on punched meat over hemp at 10m. He then switched to the margins for the last 2 hours and had a further 30 fish on either corn or a 6mm expander over loose fed corn and 4mm pellet. His 55 fish went 116lb to win the fish-off, retain the summer league title and, most importantly, relieve Tony of his £1 coin.

Dun-no-more, Beastie Lake, Decoy 14 July 2010
With 159lb, guest Lee Kendall won this years dun-no-more trophy. Fishing from peg 18 Lee started off catching shallow before switching his attentions to target the margins later. Tony fished a blinding match on poeg 23 to weigh 170-odd lb but unfortunately had his weight knocked back to 153lb for exceeding the net limit with one of his net. Please can we make sure net rules are very clear in future to avoid these types of situation occurring in future.
Tony won the club match and bagged 9 points to tie the summer league with Jonty who managed 2nd in section with 109lb. They plan to fish a fish-off at Headfen in the next few weeks.
Martin won the other section to add 7 points to his league position followed by Ron who was 2nd in section.
Thanks to the numerous guests for attending the match.

Dents Farm Shop, 4 July 2010
13 members turned out on a warm and breezy day at Hilgay.
In a match where bites were plenty Trev made his draw on peg 26 count with an awesome 100lb 8oz to win his section an the match by some 20-25lb. Fishing his favoured worm over ground bait method he had a slow start but a proportion of the massive head of skimmer which inhabit the lake soon settled over his bait. From then on it was a case of feeding to bites to keep the fish coming in the relatively shallow water. Due to the 1kg ground bait limit, he ran out after 5 hours but the damage was already done. Of this 100lb weight around 80lb was skimmers ranging from 1.5-2lb in weight with the remainder made up of a few small carp, the odd tench and silvers.
2nd place went to Martin Spragg on peg 16. Not having much success fishing for the abundance of smaller fish, Martin decided to sit it out for some of the big carp which reside in and around his peg. 4 carp, including one of 17lb 4oz, made up the bulk of his section winning 77lb 4oz.
A contender for the performance of the day was Tony who drew peg 7. Fishing a long-line rig shallow at top 3 plus 1, Tony caught a fish a chuck all day on worm over loose fed caster. Catching at depths between 12-24 inches deep he caught a real mixed bag with 30-to-the-pound Rudd, 3lb bream and Crucians all making an appearance.
Result
1 - Trev, Peg 26, 100lb 8oz
2 - Martin, Peg 16, 77lb 4oz
3 - Tony, Peg 7, 76lb 4oz
4 - Steve Goodrum, Peg 30, 66lb
5 - Stu, Peg 9, 42lb
6 - Jonty, Peg 14, 41lb
