Div 1 National practices
Posted: July 1st, 2012, 11:12 pm
Every weekend now till the big day I shall be fishing an open on the Bristol Avon, Venue for this years Div 1 national. here's todays efforts: The Bristol Avon had fined down nicely following the previous weeks floods but was still carrying a touch of pace. The expected bagging session just did not happen. Most of the action was on the first 3 pegs by the rowing club, and coming out on top on peg 2 was Garbolino Blackmore Vale’s Richie Tomala.
Richie fished the pole at 13 with a 3 gram rig over groundbait and caster. after a few roach first up the bleak become problomatic so he switched to hemp hookbait on the same rig to land some quality redfins. Despite having to follow them out to 14.5M in the last hour he finished the day with 11lb 1oz
On peg 1 Dave Mawby Browning midlands had an altogether different net of fish for 2nd place, Dave caught quality perch early on maggot and worm fished on the pole but then switched to bleak in the last hour or two when everything else slowed up to finish with 7lb 13oz
On peg 16 Kev Abigale Garbolino Blackmore vale caught 7lb 6oz for 3rd which comprised of roach and skimmers on the pole but was helped along with a bonus bream and eel caught on the feeder.
4th placed Pete Bufton was on peg 3 and had some quality hybrids in his net of 7lb 2oz which he caught on the bolo mid river, as everthing he caught on the pole line was attacked by pike
The weights dropped away now as Rich Chave Garbolino Blackmore vale had 4lb 10oz for 5th from peg 7 and his team mate Steve Nadin had 4lb 3oz for 6th from peg 12
I've stuck a picture on the Matchfishing magazine website of Richie's fish, it should appear on there some time tomorrow, I can't seem to put them on here? I'm obviously doing something wrong?
