There were some spaces on a Jinx match, Malc from MD's runs a series of matches and I was lucky enough to gain a place.
At the draw I drew peg 25(permanent peg 32) which was a end peg...
It was raining on and off all day. I had been told to fish bronze maggot up in the water and keep feeding.
All I took today was 6 pints of bronze maggot and my hooker pellets as you have to buy the fisheries own feeder pellets.
On the all in I fed 3 lines, one to the left one to the right and one in front of me. Really simple, I started catching right away and caught all the way through the match.
Biggest fish was 2lb. I was catching alot of smaller fish including skimmers and roach too but mainly small carp.
I finished 3rd overall with 62lb 4oz. Second was 64lb and first was 86lb.
Was a good day out despite the weather. Just drying all my kit off and getting my GB and bait ready for Larford tomorrow.
All me new gear got dirty and wet
But my new brolly is brilliant so far 
Si(me) looking serious for the days fishing..........
A bostin weight of small fish - pity them few fish came off the hook as you'd have sneaked 2nd place. Certainly a good way to 'bounce back' - a first and third tipping 140lb on the scales in the process.
and I carried on with the second rig.
