Top fishing thats is mate

Thanks Dave.

We have to be honest though and say that we're spoilt down here in the South East for decent venues that are capable of throwing up some outstanding weights.

However a quick read of TK's Cashmores reports  soon stops us becoming complacent.

Seems to be a lot of consistent big weight fisheries down there mate

In our main 8 outings we had 39 weights of between 50 and 100lb plus 20 over the ton. Surprisingly we didnt have any 200 or 300 lb weights as in previous years. But I put that down to the low water levels at Rockells.

Al led the way on weights and in 7 matches weighed a total of 702lb and an averagte of 100.3lb per match. I was close behind with 697lb 12 oz from 8 matches with an average of 87lb.



The total weighed in of 7561lb 10oz was our best ever beating the previous best in 2009 by over 400lb.

There are still several that we dont use like Framfield and Hawkhurst where 200lb plus weights are usually needed to win. I always wonder what your weights would be like if the fishery owners were to spend the money they make out of selling you overpriced Skrettings pellet on putting some fish in their lakes and spreading the pegs out a bit.

I'll sit back now and await the slap from TK when he reads this.

As Dave says

Dont think we've got anything like you've got - even our 'top' commies only tend to throw up the weights you guys consistently get to the venue cracks.......


And of course some of us - not all - are more happy catching a couple lb of gonks


But you never know - there's a few supposed 'cock' venues in the fixture list for Cashmores for 2012.........be interesting what the throws up


Had to laff the other week - one of our members (no names mentioned) reported that he fished a 'top' Midland venue this season with his other club............


And guess what the fishery (all over) had never fished that difficult ever.......not just the pool they were on


Spose it'll be a for us is too

I have caught about 3525lb from Rolfs all on my own this year, good fisheries down south

How many times have you fished there this year Simps, 40+?

Same here round here Dave most top venue's i.e Larford, woodlands, tunnel etc fish terrible on most club matches. But on the opens where they have room to fish the weights are massive.

Thats about 3 times more than our club has caught all season 

Mind you 3524kg of your weight was caught at the drawbag

Mugger, is 42 times so far

Dave, Drawbag....I dunno what you mean

Mugger, is 42 times so far

Fair play mate thats some going

Finally have a chance to comment rather than just read the threads.

Well what can be said, I have again thoroughly enjoyed the season and the banter.

For me personally, I think that I fished OK and was not too far away from framing in most of the matches which is always my target. I have had a couple of hard sections throughout with the consistancy of competing anglers getting better each year.

The highlights for me were the match at Colemans Cottage where I had fish everywhere in the margins but could not catch them, the same at Nicks Lake against the Morefax Lads. Perhaps I am a sucker for frustration.

Disappointments: Well none apart from the fact Al has decided to give up the singing, I quite liked it. and it would have nice to see Colin even if he just managed to come along to watch.

Congratulations to the top three lads on there performances this year, but don't rest on your laurels as I want my title back

Hopefully I will still get another chance to fish next year as a member. Dave you need to let me know the details so you can book another cruise and sort out the dates around it.

Nice one Keith.

How did it go at Stafford Moor? are we going to be treated to a blog report?

Peter

I doubt very much that there will be a blog report. I might get round to doing one but to say I fished like a @*(& comes to mind. Although some of the other lads did quite well.

It started off quite well but from then on got worse and worse but that is an experience I will not forget. So next year I will be better prepared.

Doh :(

Sorry to hear that fella .
One to file away for future reference under 'How not to do it' then.

Hopefully I will still get another chance to fish next year as a member.

No reason why you wouldnt.

I will be starting another thread to see how many want to do it again next year. I already have 3 or 4 people that would like to join as members so once I know how many we have I can start working on the figures and what venues to try and book.

Just back from Holiday,big thanks to Dave for organising another great Marsh season really enjoyed the laughs with the boys and girls.

Hopefully i will be able to fish all the matchs next year, looking forward to it already
