had a disaster from start to finish, didnt catch a fish till nearly half way thru the match....picked up sporadic fish here and there, but the sun killed it for me, im still nowhere near cracking cuts, certainly not consistent enough although i feel my rigs were perfect, i just feel the area cheslyn boy,myself and micky baker were in was a not a popular holding place for the fish, then again maybe i am just crap on the cuts

The draw always plays a part YAMO, dont think its ever possible to 'crack' fishing, as in do well everytime. Well, i'm sure of it. As you know, the fish aren't evenly spread. Only chance is to be more consistent, over time.
Sometimes you can fish really well and not catch, other times stumble along and get a netfull ...in our ' most unpredictable of sports'.
Too easy to beat yourself up as well. I know, i've done it plenty lol.

keep your head mate or you will loose it
I'm trying too
With 2 more gruellers to come can Simps hold on Joffie
I think he's starting to feel the pressure
Too Bloody right I am
He couldnt have another bad one on the penultimate match, Could he?
And you can bog off
Yamo you did great in the last match
I am still looking at the picture of my peg thinking how the hell didn't I catch more off it, ahhh well sh!t happens

I agree with Yamo i think we where just in the wrong place as the condition of the canal wasn't a factor
It also didn't help my cause when the owner of the boat decides to show his mates how far he got rebuilding it
But all in all it was good to meet and get to know some of the faces taking part
Will be there on the 14th

Hey Simps – check out the typo on line 28 of the grueller table – hope our ‘guest’ don’t take exception…………
im still nowhere near cracking cuts
and
maybe i am just crap on the cuts
Yamo – none of us are – stop cutting yourself up about it – look on it as an ongoing learning curve –I’ve seen the days when a lot of the clubs anglers used to struggle to break the lb mark – irrespective of cut venue…….. and I’d have never have thought it possible a few years ago that we as a club would record double figure weights (occasionally) off the cuts………
Plus……….
Did Ball it In wipe you out
To put things into perspective, just read some of the tales of woe quoted from over weekend elsewhere on these forums..................some cracks off here faired even worse and had some right gruellers

Suddenly gone off the KP have we :P
Just depends how many we got 'turning out' for the last match - could end up on the cut - who knows
Mind if we don't start seeing a bit of 'tropical' weather there might not be anymore gruellers if this arctic blast keeps up for the next month

Cotti lost a dog roach well over the pound mark at the net that in his own words 'would have almost trebled me weight'
