#41

craftytafty · #42

sorted me old china
the pegs this year are
201 to 231 300 to 330
363 to 393 and the bottom section
two days on each section 77 are the most we can have

201 to 231, top 4 deep there matey, never did like that section, bit iffy

it starts 301. Now I remember someone setting all his gear up round there and balling it in once only to have to move cos there was a match, which was won off that peg

Hope this weather keeps improving for you, it'll be sound if it does.

#43

it was me

#44

i've never fished the 200s taff unless its the right hand side of the bridge that you go over if it is we pleasure fished it a couple of years ago and emptied it but i cant remember it being as shallow as that

still i was on end peg fishing shallow anyway

i can remember some of the northerners watching and saying i hope we draw here

didn't have the heart to tell them it wasn't in

craftytafty · #45

If I remember right it's 12foot deep max, maybe less.

When you go over the bridge you turn immediately right before the petrol station.

I've fished it a few times when we've had knock ups and the best we had winning was about 20 kilos, lot's of just odd fish were caught.

rather be on the moat

if as Pat said to me there'll be about 60 then surely there's enough on the normal stretch without using that. Hope you post some results for me to have a look at. won't be able to fone cos I can't get a signal in Cornwall on my steam age fone!!!!

i did think of taking tipton curry floats but i didn't like the pebble dash paint job on them

#48

just been on google earth looking at the voorne canal

looks ok
trouble is the lazy dutch haven't put the peg numbers out

or driven around the citta romana i just wanted to see if they were keeping my villa clean

the good news is the square in the town has not been routed

so the tank commander won't be able to follow us around

#49

craftytafty · #57

Did you catch owt matey. Browny was rapless in those 200's first day. ( told you). 90 kilo's won the first week didn't it, struggle to get in with that normally

from what he tells me bout the fishing I'm glad I went to Whiteacres.

#58

i'm back

the weather was the worest i've ever seen mate yes i was in brownies section and fished for a bite had three roach for 5th in the section i never seen it that bad mate got patted at the next peg one day adeyed another day and ended the week with 15 points

when we arrived we fished the 200s on the saturday i had 33 bream and lost 13 i new then it was going to get bad after that
the eel man has started to net the voorne for bream instead of eels as there is a lack of them this year

>:(the federation is trying to stop this happening but you know how long that will take

i'l put some photos up next week i've got to get ready for a canal match tomorrow

back to 3ft instead of 16ft

do you think i should ball it with 120 babys heads

#59

brownie did win the free weeks holiday taff so you better have a word

craftytafty · #60

We used to ball it on canals at times with baby's heads many many years ago, (well they may still do it but I wouldn't know

)

Yeah, he texted me to tell me that, jammy git
I def won't be going though unless they change the rules and even then by the sound of it it's had it's day unless things change.

Whiteacres for me matey, caught a few fish, won a few quid, had a few beers ( well wine and whisky actually!!

)

(If you've got a copy of the results off Pat can you e mail me a copy)
