Baxk to bridge pool again today,(Thursday). Looking forward to it, i had a few hours sat on peg 27 on monday, i fished hard pellet over to the island and had a nice few hours catching carp to nearly 10lb and some f1,s, even though the water was.very clear the carp were happy to be in the shallow water, Dave gillard was doing his social distancing draw, i was fourth out, and he only pulls out peg 27 for me, plenty of groans but i was happy, lol. By the time i got to my peg mike Nicholls was already on 25 and was busy getting hus variois angling aids attached to his zimmer frame.

Baxk to my swim and it looked nice,the isalnd was 16.5 mtrs away, and i always like these swims between the islands as i think the silvers like to swim in these channels as its so deep (7foot)

So i set up the same pellet rig as monday, a .2g as4, for up the island shelf, also a shallow rig as i had a few on the drop on monday, the other rig was a .6 as5 for silvers .it was nust about now that mike Nicholls was having a practice cast with the wag, and managed to lasso a seagull around the leg, after a short but spirited fight it was safely released.

I had a quid side bet with kev winstone on silvers only, even thiugh i was a carp peg. So at the start i cupped in one ball of groundbait at topset and one, and three at 11 mtrs, all laced with caster. Starting short i only had one small roach, so i went out to 11mtrs, and began catching small skimmers immediately, i stayed on thus for the first two hours, really enjoying myself, all the time feeding hard 4,s to the island, after two hours i went across to the island expecting to catch carp straightaway, but it never happened, it took 15 minutes to get my first carp, so i rested it and came back on the silvers, it was a bit slower, but by topping up, i still kept the small skimmers coming, i had a few better ones and a couple over a pound but most were 2 to 6oz, good to see.i did get a few more carp from across, but it was nothing like it had been on monday, but it turned out i had done enough to be top weight on the day and that included the top silver weight aswell.

19lb of silvers and 28lb of carp, weigh sheets below, also i am running a match at acorn on monday if anyone fancies, I've got 20 at the mo, but a few more would be nice.
