Wednesday match today with the unemployables we were at quarry pool today I was looking forward to this one as im pn a good run of form at the venue Image, after not fishing sunday due to a long weekend in ireland Image I was looking forward to it.

Malcolm picked me up half 7 an dwe made a pit stop at helgas cafe (last as normal). We drove to the pegs today and I drew 6 and malcolm 7 (was second of 6 two matches ago) but with tommo on 12 (he won of it last match) it would be tough.

I started on the corn after feeding a pot of pellet and corn at 7 meters and had my first carp after short time. I then foul hooked a couple and landed a couple more before loosing my rig >:( >:( >:(. After setting up another I had one more carp on this line before it was dead :(.
I looked on the 10meter line then and had afew more carp but tommo and mikey had been catching well in the first hour and half. I had fish regularly untill the finish but only 1 in the last half hour >:(.
It would be close but I didn't think I would be able to beat mikey or tommo.

We weighed mikey first and he put 58lb 2oz on a golden peg (amazing what you can do for a knew pole) Tommo was the next to weigh in who could challenge mikey and he had 51lb less than we all thought :o. As I weighed in I didn't think I had enough and weighed 55lb 7oz >:(

Third match in a row I've finished second on at the venue Image so mad i've been beat by 6lb,3lb and 3lb again today Image
Better do one better on sunday Image Image

1st mikey thomson 58lb 2oz
2nd JJ Gallagher 55lb 2oz
3rd tommo 51lb odd
