The 2 golden pegs (1&9) produced a grant total of 6oz, allowing MGB to breathe a sigh of relief as the pot remained safe and secure.

And a dry net for KOD probably finally ended his attack for the club champion title.

Not a lot left to report from me. Had a total of 5 tugs.

Fished it SOB as previously stated my intentions.............no messing about after silvers.

The first bite was an hour into the match but ended with a decent fish coming off on a dipped top 2 after playing it for several minutes. A couple of mins later a 2lb jobbie was in the net saving a dry un.

Had to then wait 3 hours plus for the next 2 bites which were successfully landed. A further bite with half hour to go saw another fish come off the hook after a 30 second tussle.

So 5 bites, 3 fish for a level 10lb………………enthralling action, NOT. Is it any wander I still prefer to catch 2lb of gudgeon.

Woodcote – lovely place, the 5 hours fled by but I’m personally glad it’s having a ‘rest’ for next season……………..

Nice report mate.
Well done to HAHA for framing

I was wondering(showing interest) where the report was but didn't want to hassle you

[JJ_Gallagher]

was you on the top or bottom pool we had the bottom pool a few times last year didn't fish well

[me]

so you cracked the SOB then     [reason]change the record [/reason]

[Drynet]

Nice report TK

[TK]

was you on the top or bottom pool we had the bottom pool a few times last year didn't fish well

We were on Priory, the 'top' (middle) pool JJ

There were signs of fish down in the rh bottom corner this time......but them pegs daint produce - ask KOD & Fatty



I really wanted to draw in the Japanese sniper pegs on the car park side for the first time ever.........but it didnt happen (again)



In fact two pegs over there didnt come out of the hat...........typical :(

Failing that, I wanted on the dam wall.............and the other peg not to be drawn...................was just there too - with Drynet and MGB hiding behind the other two bushes



Final pickie - and its still raining and brollies up down the far end by the pipe

[TK]

As I said Simps..................lovely place

[Drynet]

Nice photo's i landed 2 lost 10

[corcatchacold]

TK...

lovely place it may be...

but just proves you need a lesson old son....  

you and harry should really have done better here  
you had the weather, the tips... i even hear that the water was bubbling like a jacuzzi at times.  
yet you still did not win... or even place!!!

shame lads, hang thy heads in shame!!!    

[corcatchacold]

mind you,
nice piccy's though

[Drynet]

you had the weather, the tips... i even hear that the water was bubbling like a jacuzzi at times.

Dont worry TK in this months pole fishing mag Steve ringer mentions how he struggles with a jacuzzi peg so your in good company.

[me]

steve ringer as always said (he told me 2 years ago) if theres a jacuzzi in one of your lines, then move to another line as the fish are gill feeding whichis making the jacuzzi.

you and harry should really have done better here
you had the weather, the tips... i

Just because tk and harry had your info doesnt mean it would of worked for them. Every one as different way of fishing, the air pressure changes, presentation is different for different people. A few years ago i had a match at herion brook and neil and martin both gave me that much info i knew everything but the fishes name. On the day in the match i totaly f**ked up as the wind was that strong it was impossible to fish more than top 3 and because both of them had said pole only i hadnt taken my feeder rod and everyone else was on the island with feeders . Now adays the only info i go for is depths, size of fish ect and fish it my way

[ROB]

I can't believe i missed this one TK, i've fished it a few times and i also had my biggest match weight there aswell. Is the place still full of little perch?

[TK]

I didnt see any Perchpoacher, but the guy to my right started catching them down the margins when he switched to the mag.....in fact he had a few upto 6oz.......

[GFFC]

yo guess what managed to sighn in 1st time ever
cant seem to get piccies up ::)

[TK]

Well done Gez

Have you got some pickies then.......

[GFFC]

tone one step at a time only a novice on this technical stuff

[TK]

Me too - but you'll soon get the hang of it

[Brambles]

Nice report and pics TK My main handicap other than being a crap fisherman was being hemmed in by bamboo either side. They were that close i had a struggle to position my brolly. As carp weren't showing early on I swapped my carp rig for lighter tackle and went for silvers which proved to be crafty and shy biting. After having my hook bait stolen several times I eventually tempted 2 decent roach on caster. Then the inevitable happened and a 6lb common led me a merry dance on my light rig. All in all not a bad day out. Only my second time on this pool shame it's being dropped next year TK.
