Was I last in section and match ?

#3

Are you kneeling down Lee

Reminds me of Bob and Tink pound picture

#4

Was I last in section and match ?

you could have been last in section but you certainly were not last in the match Mate.

You were on the worse peg in the worst section.....You really must learn to draw better!

#5

I'll have to blame joff for that, as captain, he should have drawn better.

#6

I think it went more like this..........

its not the first time dodge ::) ::)10lb in every peg i was told

all i can say is what a fantastic bit of canal one of the best i've seen with loads of features on most pegs and the ones without still caught chub great company was well with lee and tony being on form and the rest of the lads
even lloydy had a 2lb chub
as for the breakfast i'd of taken a photo of it but i could'nt get it all on picture

:Dand for £3.50

biggest i've seen and hot

i was drawn on D1 and looked the part but as aways when i draw a good peg the weather was against me and had a strong wind from right to left and the you are fishing under bushes i little gaps it's not easy

still i lost no fish or tackle and thats a result

yes i lost a mars bar to llee but he was a million miles away and i was told he went straight for squatt fish as the mars bar was the most important part of the day

i'm not too sure if he got beat both sides

and it was tony that set the pace

really enjoyed the day and a special thanks to lee for carring my kit back he must of been really hungry for that mars bar

i did manage to win my section i'm not sure if lee did

for saying its only 48 miles from my house i will be back

and it just might keep me away from them commercials abit longer

back at the pub the tight bas##d did'nt buy me drink

and not a trentmen in site there is a god after all

joffmiester · #14

daylewlia i did'nt draw mate you did

joffmiester · #15

i would like to say this is how you should treat match fishing now'er days win or loss have a laugh

joffmiester · #16

its a really friendly league here's martin owen sharing his peg after taking a six two lead with chub

#17

It's just a pity the bloke sharing Martins peg doesn't know how to put anything on the hook bigger than a squatt....just like his mate Lloydy

#18

The bloke next to me thought casters were something off a settee

You can just imagine it......

Bill said "What you catching on Marigold"

I said "Squatt"

Bill "OK"

I turned around and there was Bill positioned like a 21 year old girl in a bus shelter on a Saturday having a piddle
