Paul Murrins 50th Birthday open

#1

Unread post by Paul_Murrin »

27 lads turned out for my 50th Birthday open fished at Shugborough,  And hoo mill / fruit farm.
Again the weather was quite pants with sleet and light snow flurrys causing a couple of guys to cancell,
the draw was to take place at Great Haywood sports & social club, but as i arrived there were anglers waiting outside ..... Opps the club had got its days mixed up and they thought it was sunday...... Image
any way i got the draw under way on the carpark which is never fun in winter,then the anglers scuttled of to there pegs trying to keep as dry as possible,  it was then i realised i had two extra sets of scales .....Opps, this day aint going to plan so of i went to drop of the scales, with the sections being quite spread to put anglers on a few fish it took me a fair while to get back to my peg, when i arrived the lads either side of me were well redy and were just about to start feeding, Opps this aint going to plan, so i decided NOT to fish and walk along chatting to the lads and taking some pictures,       ( album on my face book page,) Image
