distance between pegs

joffmiester · #1

Right this a tricky question. Anglers that fish commercials have 10 to 15 yards, canals we seem to go every other peg, thats ok but sometimes you miss the fish if they have tightened up and rivers well you can have anything from 20 yards to a field.

Surely this needs to stop! Swino said to me that on the trent matches he had 50 paces between him and the next man, is this too far ?

on one section in our winter league i put two pegs quiet close about 20 paces apart. the reason i do this is roach especially live there and more than often one of them wins the section, if i was to give them more room only one would catch but would catch really well.
I know the river is gin clear but fish are where they want to be, the greens is quite closely pegged and no one minds yet on the natural sections they insist on really long pegs, this week i have cut the walks down as most dont want the long walks which we seam to have got nower days.
i just hope its ok.I look at it in this way. its a team match and your match is the section your in. anything else is a bonus what do you think ?

I think you need to look up the word 'punctuation' in the dictionary!

Punctuation??? Spelling etc etc etc, remember though Jon when Joff was educated it was chalk and a slate book

endpeg · #4

You mean Joff was educated?

Someone pointed this out to Joff before about his punctuation before on the AT site,so he started using smilies.

:(

::)

I know that my punctuation isn`t good but at least i have a go.

Just one full stop or comma every 100 or so words would be nice!

I think that's 1-1 with what I've just put on Ropa's thread!

It must be difficult for Joff to type in words tho

with him having 6 fingers

Maybe thats why he makes so many mistakes bless him

its not only his joffs spelling that takes some working out

but his pegging..50 paces between each angler.....he must keep losing count every time he gets past 12

..its not only the spacing between anglers but whats in the water

. my peg yesterday was weed from one bank to the otherand full of snagswhat a nice days fishing i had yesterday

joffmiester · #14

you looked at those pegs the other week and said they looked good

#15

You know what to tell him Joff

chris_buckingham · #16

there was colour in the river and u couldnt see the weed

8-)but its solid.....

....scriv been a bit quiet today joff...i wounder why

...and ifGOBfreys pegging the section next week it will be even worse

joffmiester · #17

i wonder if he will give his saturdays fishing to peg out in all that sh#ty mud and chop the pegs out.
sometimes its best to engage the brain to the mouth first and count to ten
bucko the best one i've heard is kimber shouting his mouth off in the tackle shop that he was going to punch my lights out for changing the sections

of which i did phone each captain about first
and what came of it

i need one more bullet before he gets afew home truths with both barrels
mr two rods himself

joffmiester · #18

scrivs could be standing behind you next week bucko

i would'nt want that on my worst enemy

still scotty could come under the axe this week
