"Sigh*

Drove down to Peterborough from Liverpool and stayed in a hotel to fish a prac match on the nene sunday.

£44 = hotel

#5

lee whats £21 split 10 ways because thats all they will need

#6

I think anglers got mixed up with the bait limits.....

they only took

1 maggot
1 pinkie
1 squatt
1 joker and half a bloodworm

i think some one should have told them it meant pints....

It fished really well Joff

all the usual suspects framed

Pete rice won with 127lb a fantastic weight considering the wind

.

I drew New pool peg 3 and was told i was up against it.....right in the face of the wind and a very narrow peg . Thought i had about 90lb but i weighed 76lb, my f1s seemed a bit smaller than the regulars had caught but i really struggled with presentation, when it was slightly calmer in short spells i caught a better stamp

thorougly enjoyed it think i missed out on the section by 9oz

My team mate Matty Forster came 6th overall with 77lb and forgot to pick his section money up ::)
