Simple Match Fishing Forum

well..not a lot to say,apart from weather was crackin (not like yesterdays monsoon),sarnies were and thats about it,have never seen fish in such a poor condition every carp that was caught either had no lips or had big sores on the body

the mouths were that bad that you just couldnt get a proper hook hold hence very poor weights,37lb won it and 2nd was just a few pounds less.
myself...1 carp,1 skimmer.some nice rudd for a measley 9lb 3 oz,
got done by that OLD dog snowie by 1lb & half

have not been that disappointed since our last visit to a high profile fishery (larfords) think i will stick to the local cuts & commies

really cheesed off with doin hundred mile round trips for jack sh1t,with the club being treated second class.

had more fun & enjoyed catchin pound n half of skimmers and being battered either side by two shakes and his bro on the harrisons /talk angling match

sorry for moaning just peed off

Know where you're coming from OBI.......



Might just run with Hotlips suggestion that Cashmores have 15 cut matches next year

Im not keen on it myself to be honest. clubs get pushed off at 2pm for the opens.

There's a few places I've enquired about where you have to be off at 2pm Drynet - not just for a following match either :(

you dont mind if they give you time to clear up.

they were not to bad,did give us time .

clearly states on the notice board NO interfering with bankside veg or wildfowl,chap who sat on snowies peg took out a big blade on a pole and cut back most of the reeds and a nice little bush that over hung,

bet we couldnt of done that it would of been

think its a case of little club syndrome or is it just money grabbin, needless to say wont be bookin these puddles again,fishermen after us couldnt wait to get on ,mind u if i turned up with 15 pints of maggots i would want to start asap
