Simple Match Fishing Forum

MrV, Any idea when you'll be able to let us know if match is 100% on?

Its on Josh. Weather forecast not too bad and it was low and clear at Burton today...so low and clear the bloody pike had half the fish I hooked. Still finished with just short of double figures in 3 hours, so looking good for Saturday

Heinzer will wanna fish it even if its got two foot on

Two foot on just freshens it !

2ft on frightens others MarkV

It might be too much, I dont know the venue.

But it is a shame nowadays that a drop of water and its called off. I think we know more nowadays about fishing with a bit of water in, often it can fish as well as without.

A low clear river can fish awful, bit it wouldn't be called off.

Waiting for the raft of reasons against now...

I find it hard to know what this actually means in reality.

When it was so much above or below normal winter or summer level, and falling/rising or steady, I could roughly imagine what it would be like.

But at the moment, it will take some getting used to.

Hope you have a good day,, whatever happens

Top tip - apparently the chub love a hair rigged 45mm white boilie

By the way MBK it's the V festival this weekend - so be careful with that sat nav

Whatever you do dont go Wton - A5 then east     or you are likely to get snarled up.   

Better to head 'across country' and get as close to the A38 as you can before hitting the A5
