Cheers Joff, drew a flier but it was a bloody long walk. Had fifty odd roach and a skimmer on punch at 5metres then mostly rudd on squatt across - just beat the next peg who caught a big bream and some perch - the rudd looked to be well spread but I think most sit it out for perch and skimmers. I might have caught more if I'd sat it out for lumps. Very good, friendly and well run matches - only downside is the walks and the towpath traffic from Foxton Locks! Where did you draw Joff?

foxton locks peg 6 loads of walks still i shipped down the towpath so it didn't really effect me too much .but boy they stopped behind you and asked all about fishing i never really had so many people ask about fishing ,stil can only be good for the sport
i had the venue expert next to me he had his pants pulled right down i can tell you 3lb 10oz and it could of been worse as i lost a big Billie and a skimmer that jumped into the bloody bush opposite i thought only pellet headed skimmers did that funny though

collie the spro lads were interested in the summer league i've put the the outlined dates on the calander and there is a mini spring league if you fancy it take a look ,do any of the spro lads come on here

there is a match here this sunday

Joff,

Who do you book on with for these matches and do you know where and what time the draw is mate? I know they have lots of pegs to choose from but what area will they be fishing Sunday.

Cheers Ian

steve warner is the man you need to book on with 07957468381 the draw is normally around 8 to 8.30am that the mcdonalds on the A6 towards market harborough steve will be able to tell you better i still don't know how to get to most sections anyway as there are miles of canal they have 


ps just ask him how he got on being next to me

Suprised that you werent there last week Joff!

I gave Mr Warner a good battering for you mind you you could've got about five pegs in between us. You certainly get plenty of space on these matches - took my ipod last week for a bit of company.

Ask Nick Moss about his peg, nobody else for miles!!

colly having a couple of weeks off mate, again that old chestnut brownie points still by the end of the day i think the tank commander would of preferred me to go fishing
still i promised the kids as well and tey don't forget
mindyou i'm wondering at the minute whether times running out for match fishing so i'd better get back pretty quick

ps sorry i didn't get the results either this week so tony or me could get them in the press
