A colder day slows down the weights.

Today saw a low attendance of 7 hardy anglers fish this weeks midweek open.

With the weather much colder there was not much fish movement on the surface as there usually is.

The match today was won by one member of the Midlands Mafia aka Steve Wilson who was fishing peg 4 in the small lake. Steve caught the majority of his carp on a 6 metre line straight out in front fishing on the deck fishing with pellet.

After a slow start Steve was a regular visitor to the scales with his 8 board fish going 124-12 out of his final weight of 141-08, topped by a carp of 19-04.

Someway back today but having a great run in these midweek matches was Andy Rayment on peg 30 in the big lake.

Andy caught at 13 metres on the deck fishing pellet feeding pellet and at the end caught a few down the edge for his weight of 90-09.

Completing the frame was Colmic’s Frank  Donachie in no carp bay peg 10. Frank defied the odds to catch 8 carp towards peg 11’s platform for his weight of 75-04. His three heaviest fish went 43-12 of which the biggest on went 16-04 pictured below.

Today saw the really big fish put in an appearance.

In today’s match I don’t think I have seen so many big fish put in an appearace for mid October.

The day was not very warm with a slight breeze blowing from the big to the small lake, which I think helped the fish switch on to feed.

The match started in spectacular style when Gordon Worrell had 2 carp in the first 20 minutes that went 19lb and 20-08 fishing the bomb and meat to the areator on peg 36.

For the rest it was a waiting game but in the last 2 hours Andy on peg 7 started to get a run of huge fish ( his 14 board fish went 171-04).

Andy fished a top 2 plus 3 fishing pellet feeding pellet , but still managed to foul hook and lose about 20 fish on what could of been a really special day.

In the end Andy had around 21 fish for his winning weight of 223-04 ( well done Andy ).

In second place after his speedy start was Gordon Worrell on peg 5 who also had a run of massive fish with 5 of those going over 15lb topped by the mirror of 20-08.

Gordon fished a combination of bomb and short pole fishing meat and pellet hook bait feeding pellet to catch his weight of 169-00.

Also a mention goes to John on peg 10 who only had 9 carp but they went 123-02 thanks to 2x 19lb and a 17 and 15lb fish .

Today’s match saw 6 anglers weigh over 800lb of fish which 36 fish weighed over 10lb in another case of big fish catching.
