Simple Match Fishing Forum

shouldnt bloody ask so many to go then should we  count me out anyway

Purely my fault Harry. I failed to let TK know of some dangerous pegs when I checked the length out last week and he unknowingly agreed to a few guests joining us.
Either way, there are still members out there who will not turn up without letting us know, and that should not happen

TK add the Cashmores to the absent list as well

Was it something I said....

Looks like we may have 2 pegs each ? Holiday time I suppose

hi there if theres any spare pegs going could you fit me in please cheers

Added you to the guest list Glynn

Was it something I said....

it was the thought of coming up against you river cracks

...or the thought of seeing TK sunbathing in his pants if it to warm ....(just a bit of info on his private habits i thought i would share....nearly fell off my box when i was told :surprise

.

Hi ya t.k I'm not goin to be able to make this match hope the rest of you have a great days fishing

Aok ta Carlos

Beam or Dial scale???

Bring em both if you've got em please KOD ta

Looks like pegs 1 to 18 on the platforms in the morning.....

There's a few spare pegs going (and expect another casualty or two in the morning)......

Should make it a nice even match TK. 18 pegs, all more or less the same distance apart, and comfortable platforms

Not a bad day, park right behind ya peg (well organised by Mr V, Tricast and KOD), the sun shone, the birds sang and despite the scorching and bright conditions plenty of wild fish were caught, with a few lost......

Wish I could've been there t.k but unfortunately my turbo on me car had other plans 😭😭😭 should be all sorted for the next match.👍

....not in my peg they wernt

not to sure i am cut out for this river mullarky

got a decent tan anyway

Smart draw well organised, off to peg 18 thanks to Tricast for helping me to unload.
Stick float and waggler rod set up although I had doubts about
overhead clearance to use the waggler.
First run through with the stick noticed Bream bubbling under an overhanging tree. Float disappears, rod bends, brief encounter with a lump, hook broken (oh pooh)
This is the start of a sequence of less than good luck, Pole is locked together, cannot reach the ideal distance. As feared I cannot cast any distance with the waggler. At this juncture, in desperation I decide on setting up a ledger rod (never been any good on previous visits to Baileys).
First cast<the line wraps around the quiver tip and it snaps, at this point I find I have left the spares at home. Execute a decapitation off broken tip and try again, the shortened works OK
The net result of my somewhat futile efforts 2 x2 inch Chub, 2 x 3 Roach, and 1 x 3.5 inch Kinver Tiger (Perch).
Oh great joy.

Glad you enjoyed it Phil

Certainly did.
