Simple Match Fishing Forum

well i must say with commercials like eye kettleby i could get used to fishing them more

 
its really come on since the days of the fish-o-mania clean and well maintained with a lovely wooden lodge with a bar and restaurant
the lakes have been stocked recently as well



for saying it was only a knockup it turned out to have 30 good and anglers on it  and drawing next to stu killen it was going to be a keenly fort  battle



my peg was the better of the two with a spare peg between us and to my right was the end peg with adam nurse on it with the wind blowing into the corner  memories of Holland again i had drawn a peg with a bare bank and really fanced it but it was fourteen and and half metres across still it was the line i fanced as i new adam would fish the margins
i'm bbye far not the best commercial angler in the world but i enjoyed the day.starting on pellet only to find loads of roach and rudd nicking the pellet so i moved to banded pellets which did bring some small carp and a few skimmers but i always felt i hadn't got it right and with the wind the presentation was hard and i remembered pete caton saying if its not dead right for pellets he'd turn to maggots trouble being i hadn't brought many not enough to feed off the small fish  i had got worm and caster and also sweetcorn  :-/which bait was going to the one to change the day
i could see most anglers catching but all had adopted different methods from margins to middle even pole method so this was it  i'd made my decission  corn reason behind it was the wind seamed to be taking everything to my right and i thought corn is quite a stable bait that you can hold to  i tried just depth off and 3inch on andthat was the best way i felt as if i could do a weight going into the last hour  as it was one a bung  still the end peg had caught really well  so i new a couldn't stop him if only the match had gone on another half an hour 
this is why commercial anglers are so far in front me they would of made that choice at the start still i managed 37lb 11oz for 4th and a section win  :-/but deeply thought i should of won the match or second
still everytime i fish a commercial i've learnt loads and can always do better

 
my net of 37lb 11oz al the fish in purfect condition

and adams winning bag of 58lb 5oz


the result
1ST ADAM NURSE WIGSTON 58LB 5OZ

3RD AARON WELLS LEICESTER SENSAS 46LB 4OZ

Looks a nice place Joffie - shame its just a tad too far for us for a club match - I checked it out today :(

well if you ever think about a coach trip [like a jolly boys trip] count me in TK like i said i'm not a commercial angler but the back up weights of skimmers were brilliant steve pratt known as crusty caught 16lb of skimmers all on bread punch if i could of packed up quicker i'd of took a photo of his net all peas in a pod
we all know you can't win off every peg but its nice to have a days fishing

its getting me interested more and more but i'm not old enough yet i can still walk across fields to a tree lined river or a gully or a hemp infested peg full of roach
but your right it won't be long

I was too old for that 10 years ago!!!!! I'm 50 nest year so I'll be on the feeder permanent then

I don't believe it.....................

Been away for a week and the site is full of fuiking pellets

Eh up bill

Good looking bloke Keith Hulland has been moonlighting for trabucco an all while you been away stuffy crappity smack even managred to catch a bream from the cyanide on the t&m at middlewich ::) ::) its the first bream ever been caught from there in 10 years apparently


ps well good thems pellets

joff always draws near a bridge so no long walks for him away just like being on a commie pool just the drive from the cafe is just a bit longer . .

Pellets & Paste, it's the future I tell you.
