Landsend weds

As they say good things come in three's, England beat the aussies,Phil Harding won a match and it looks as though trigger has got some growth on his bald spot ,or is it just a bit of residue from his hair thickening fairy dust.
Back to the match and joe thompson drew peg 19 for me ,how good is that.It has to be said it is the form peg of the moment ,even beany won off it.
Four rigs to make,one for the right hand margin,4x10 on 0.18 and a 14 xedion hook for corn over smelly caster that have been in my bag since sunday.One 4x14 for 8mtrs to fish hard pellet on the deck, and 2 rigs for ovar to fish hard pellet one with a bristle for on the bottom on top of the shelf and one for up in the water which is all balsa as it needs to support a pellet.
On the all in i potted in half a pot of 6mm pellets at 8mtrs and half on the far shelf, and 2 full pots of caster and corn at 4 mtrs in the right hand margin.starting at 8 mtrs with a hair rigged 6 mm pellet, and i was getting indications straight away ,and i had my first carp in the net after about 5 mins.Staying on this for the first hour and a half i had a few more carp plus a couple of skimmers and a tench, all the while i was firing a few pellets to the far bank where the usual sight of carp climbing the far bank was to tempting.
Pushing my shallow rig in to the far bank a couple of quick carp and then nothing. these fish are getting cute now ,when you feed they climb the bank ,you may get one straight away then they bugger off till you take your pole away then they come back.Out with the on the deck rig over and lots of bites trouble is it was a lot of liners which means foulers, so come about 2 foot off, and less foulers (just)and more in the net.2 hours to go and time to look down the edge on double corn, 4 put ins and 4 fish, time to feed again and go over and fish shallow.lots of bites now and catching steady .
at the end i thought i had about 110lb, i heard gary wall had about 16 fish on speci 32 and nick collier was admitting to 90 to 100 lb on peg 15. i need'nt have worried though.
t rixon 133.2
gary wall 104
n collier 91.7
j dyte 86.1
a jeffrey 82.5
m toombs 57.2
silvers
trigger 20.6
j thompson 18.5
ps i have tried getting the grammer and spelling right but it dont help when the wife is looking over my shoulder taking the piss.
