4 days again

Landsend fishery 3 day event, shoukd have been 33 fishing, but one no show, and they onky paid a bit of the money, dont understand it, why cant people just ring or text to let organisers know so someone else can fish, bit selfish really, breakfast at the fishery everday, vwry nice aswell, drew 58 first day , up on lake three, one of my favourite pegs as it favours left handers, with a big weedbed up to the right, reeds to the left and an island to go at,

thought i was going to be in for a rasonable day but it was tough, even going 14 mtrs to the weedbed was no good, all i had there was a tench and an f1, wierd. I had a few carp on meat at 9mtrs, a couple of the island on pellet and some more smallish ones to my left towards the reeds, ended up with 68lb for secomd in the section, beaten by steve(lanerz) lane on 41 with 71lb, so not to bad a start.well done to rich major on winning the lake from peg 68, obviosly the coaching from rod wootten and mike williams on margin fishing is paying off,

day two and my turn on lake one, speci lake, more than happy to pull out 33, corner peg behind the cafe,

had a really slow start which got difficult after a bit, I've hooked a carp which went under the aerator and snagged me. Pulled for a break but lost my rig, so off my box with hooks and blades attaxhed to net handles and cupping kit, i was aroung the side doing snag clearance, not ideal 90 minutes into the match, it took a while to start catching , but i caught quite well for a spell, i even had martin rayet worried over on peg 31 who was winning the lake and section But a bad last hour didnt help, so i had to settle for second in the section again, with 112lb, martin won our section with 140lb, so the first ninety and last 60 may have cost me. day three and lake two, into the hat and comes peg 13 up in the corner, all the lakes switched off today, two cold nights probably didnt help, managed.to winkle out 72lb , mainly.from the right hand margin, but christ these Landsend fish are switched on, they arent to worried by a pole over there heads, but they certainly knkw when your rig is in the water, but i managed to be top weight on the lake so a section win and i my just sneak in with 5 points, managed to come 5th so a bit of money, always.welcome , well done to luke fothergill on winning with 4 points, beating dan squire on weight, mark jones also had 4 points but less weight again, bob gullick was 4th with 5 points beating me on weight, then i did the same.to nick duckett who also had 5 points, big thanks to gary and Rachael anderson for putting up with us and our moaning, nice touch with the food after Rachael, much appreciated, ade the tea boy did a good job delivering food and drinks to the pegs during the match, without even using the quad, LOL 😂😂.and to Mike ducket for the organising, a thankless job, and steve seager for the results. Nearly had a day off on monday to watch the funeral, after.all it was a slice of history we will never see again, and she did our country proud, But decided to go to the sedges for the silvers match (over55,s), another lovely fishery breakfast, them drew peg 39 for myself, end peg on the day, angler on my right today was the legendary bob pascoe, always going to have a laugh with him nearby, anyway fed lines at 7 and 9 mtrs with groundbait with caster and a small.ammount of chopped worn, and loose fed caster on ny topkit line just to the left in 4 foot of water, again ive had a nice day catching good skimmers on all lines, trying to avoid the carp, which was nigh on impossible, the hook box certainly took a beating, ended with 47lb, which was enough to win, beating martin tizard whi had 43lb, tile lake.fished well, brick was a bit more difficult as the weigh sheet shows.
