sunday landsend open

we ended up with 30 fishing today so we used speci, match and half of number 3 lake, i let andy bryant draw for me and i ended up on peg 11 which i wasnt to upset with as it was out of the strong westerly wind, and the last time i drew it i had 45lb of silvers on caster , so with that in mind i thought i would try the same thing. as its one of the deepest swims on the lake i set up a 4x14 rig with a 18 middy 6313 on .12 for 10 mtrs a soft pellet rig with a 16 of the same pattern hook to fish out in front of the island at 14 mtrs and to my left at 14 mtrs at the bottom of the far shelf, and a 4x8 rig for hard pellet on top of the far shelf, although it was sheltered i wasnt to sure as to whether the fish would be at our end as the wing had turned round as was blowing to the bottom of the lake, i had ed wynne for company opposite on 13 and the next angler to my left was tom thick on 7, and that was the only 2 anglers i could see, the banter was as good as always with tom thick on top form giving trigger some awful stick on 16, and as trig was allegedly found by paul elmes sharing a bed with another man when trig didnt answer his door but made the mistake of leaving his door unlocked , so he is now known as spooner edmunds,now i have chucked up my roast lamb at the thought of it i will continue with my match, nah, bollcks i cant be assed to write to much about my match as all i did i did badly, losing a few decent fish, silvers and carp and that cost me the section, and i probably totally overfed it as the caster line ended up with little roach being a problem, the soft pellet lines yielded 1 small roach and the far bank gave me 2 carp and a couple of chub , i think i made a mistake by not setting up a pellet rig to fish the end bank at 16 mtrs as my section was won by mike west with 46lb and my 24lb of silvers and 4 carp went 41lb so the lost fish were costly as far as section money went , there were some good weights today with ken rayner winning with 162.13 of peg 21 catching on caster and later meat(read his blog) 2nd was ryan summerhayes with 130.12 on peg 31. 3rd leyton palmer 120lb peg 36. 4th tony page 113.5 peg 41. 5th adrian jeffery 92.8 peg 29 6th paul elmes 86.2 peg 18. silvers. tom mangnal 44.2 peg 28, mainly skimmers
