Saturday 1st October 2011 Open Match
Into October and the temperature down the lake was very high. The fish were not really interested in feeding.
Mick Jones wins his first match of the year. Well done Mick.
Adam on peg 13 also caught a personal Best carp of 19lb 14oz. I was 20lb until the water came out the net lol.

I caught my fish shallow on the boilie but the heat was too high for me and I nearly passed out on peg 14. I was playing the last fish of the day and as I was shipping back I went blind and couldn’t breathe, Gem was luckily behind me and held my topkit whilst I got in the shade for 5 mins to get my breath back. I managed to get the fish in and had a bit of stick from the opposite bank 😀
Johns family turned up to the lake so he didn’t really fish the match and it was too hot for him anyway.
Adam’s New PB Fish. Well done mate.

Congratulations on your PB Adam, so close to the magical 20lb mark.
I particularly enjoyed my day as the shade at peg 5 was very nice.
Hope to be back “Tea bagging” soon.
Trust your feeling better now, Si.
