We fished the long bank nearest the carpark today. Pegging was a tight - a continuing theme, as most/all the venues we fish have seen a huge increase in demand from pleasure anglers, putting the pressure on space for us and on the lakes we fish; no surprise that weights are down.
Today was pretty hard going for many of us, with end pegs, and those who could reach the island accurately, faring best. Nothing, but nothing could get them up in the water, which is very unusual for this venue in summer.
Todays winner was Keith with 57lb just pipping Josh with 56lb, and Mark in 3rd place with 51lb. Well done gents.
