Simple Match Fishing Forum

cheers TK and Mr, V very nice venue, put me down for next year if you book it. groundbait and a tin of corn was the bait, caught most fishing 12in deep to the left margin with a little help from those lovely swans . well done Mr V winning the knockout. Just one question, who were the designated scalesmen?

i'll start these ramblings with a cautionary tale of following old fuddy duddies to a venue you already know how to get to

1/ when arranging where to meet and being told follow us  treat with deep suspicion

2/ when said o.f.d. get in a lane,don't always presume it'll be the right one

3/ make sure you're fully awake so you can have reflexes like the stig



so after this i followed the A5  to tamworth travelling at warp speed i passed cotti's car (i'm sure i saw it spinning in circles )

so when i arrived and told t.k. that i'd passed cotti,only to be told cotti had arrived before me.

i knew then never to trust the old **"!*^%()%  again.

so after 10-15 mins of abusing anybody that would listen,i took my place in the queue to draw.

it looked like all the short walks would take the pegs i fancied,so when peg12 stuck to my hand i wasn't overly optimistic.

on arriving at my peg i discovered cotti on my right and haha on my left ,with these two fish magnets i surely couldn't go wrong could i ????????????


the plan today wasn't to fish long has i caught my fish close last year,so with this in mind and having a peg that has sedges that extended out from the bank

my options were limited anyway.

so two lines were set up .. one @ 8mtrs and another at the end of my keepnets,bait was mags for bits and corn and meat for anything that fancied it.



so with time to spare i tootaled of with my camera to see who i could upset!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

if your wondering why the piccies have taken so long i've had to photoshop a certain person out of all of them,

PS it wasnt Heinzer fault he threw you a dummy on the A5, he thought he was heading for Tamworth....... with Tom Tom in hand and out of his view, I snatched the wheel to shoot up the A38
