Walsall canal Tipton
83 fished


With the ice thawing by Thursday the canal produced a much better match for most of the anglers below peg 93 with nearly half the field catching 4lb plus.

Former world champ Tommy Pickering showed his class on peg 1 with a catch on skimmers and roach that totalled 9-14-10 on bloodworm and joker.

The bionic beaker still doing the bizz

I've still got Tommy P's book - My way with the Pole - autographed by him and Colin Dyson - think I need to fish it out and swat up again
