Simple Match Fishing Forum

ever had one of those days where what ever you do it's either wrong or just ever works
yesterday it all started wrong from the moment i got up  [late]
i had got my gear ready the night before as i was fishing at frisby a late decision  on Saturday afternoon as i couldn't find anything else to go  i had worked out if it was flat calm I'd try waggler and a bit of hemp fishing
well that went out the window as soon as i saw the wind  i then thought should i go i didn't really fancy it  :-/but its a match .on arrival i was met with 25 anglers  :-/i thought perhaps a few more would of been there :-/the organizer had pegged the best areas and made it 6 peg sections  which i thought was good but as you know bream fishing iis so hit and miss and with little chance of pole fishing or waggler fishing its all your eggs in one basket
first mistake i didn't find out too much info on how it was fishing big mistake
i had brought all the usual baits for bream casters worms maggots pinkies and a few boilies for the hook and  fish-meal G/B
WRONG bye a country mile
then the draw 53,52,51,50 not in all the others are flyer's and i mean flyer's with the wind blowing into them then it went 49 ,48,and 47 cutback in a bay CRAP you have to chuck at least 30 yards further than the others  and yes thats where i drew 48
from there on it went really wrong  i never fished far enough out
and as for bait  it was all pellets and method feeders
how could i get it so wrong
so it was a early bath for the first time in years  not a good day
must try harder 

Fancy letting Browny beat you off the next peg. Mind you he did comment on your casting. said if you heard a splash you were happy

i know fancy brownie beating me off the next peg but taff could you stand 5 hours next to him especially on crap pegs i really did get it wrong yesterday i didn't put any time into the place taff i sat and watched brownie and we were chatting the next thing he crackered off and that was on top of loosing a couple at the net i bet he didn't tell you that
it was nice chatting with him

Pellets=The Future.

No he didn't tell me that or the losing fish either. he'll probably say you put him off!! but the point will be raised!!
I take a radio, then I can pretend I can't hear if I don't want to talk, that and pull my hood up, works a treat. mind you i'd ban bank walkers

we're not carp fishing you unsociable bugger

don't care , ban em

Joff, is it right they have wednesday matches on Frisby.
do you know what the crack is, draw time pools etc and if they get many there.

I haven't fished it for years. Could you go there and just fish the feeder or method and not bother about the pole

:-/not heard about them taff  :-/there are a few evening matches on a Thursday but you have to be a member to fish them i think brownie and Co go on them but i would of thought they will be coming to the end now
I've never seen or heard of mid week matches on there
:-/still its all coming to a end in October as its been sold to a private buyer and rumours are he doesn't want match anglers on it  :-/and it will be a £25 per day carp water
suit you sir carpping
