why why why do anglers do this paul turner and tony keeling have done a fantastic job running 12 practice matches for the run up to the national two matches on each section surely you can't get better than that
and to cap it off yesterdays match had 280 anglers on it
as you have seen on other posts teams have been practicing and mostly not choosing to fish the matches
but to our horror when we got to our pegs yesterday you could tell all had been fished either Friday or Saturday piles of G/B peat from worms caster all must of added to the heavy rain the night before in between bonus fish very little squatt fish were caught :-[good anglers reduced to ounces long periods with out bites
so why do teams do it
on the total fishing site,is it the vespa team which is the army,navy and air force combined and given they are all across europe they have to have one week off all together and to be fare thats the only way of doing it plus they ran a team match on saturday off the national match length but this was made up of lots of local teams as well
agreed to some extent joff however fishing a match on a stretch of canal which will not be used on the national (no problem). practicing on the canal sections to be used no problem (so long as its not in the days preceding a match). as for the forces lads fair play they are restricted due to leave dates etc but what about those teams not represented by the forces? (no excuse). . anyway good luck next sat mate , at least the fish will get a rest this week but hopfeully only until sat
i didn't think it was mate just gutted i'm sure someone like yourself would of caught more and thats what i take home after the match i was home in hour just because i was trying to answer my own questions
your knowledge will be second to none you all know where your going so no stress there i looked off the bridge to see where you had drawn it looked a straight bit of canal yet its a good area i just hope we get 9 feature pegs and a boat turn
Dave Brown is one of the best canal anglers i've seen, last week he got battered both sides, don't beat yourself up Joff you've probably saved your draw for next week
The ploy is working well.
I have all the Div two teams on every stretch of the cut every day this week (well its within my rules anyway) They are vacating the pegs at 8am on Saturday morning so it will have a good rest.
