Fred’s Birthday Match 11th June 2012

.

Another wet day down the lake

What a way to spend your birthday, fishing down the lake with a load of your mates. Thats exactly what Fred did today. Its just a shame the weather wasn’t better. Paul Jay said it rained all day and even people UNDER their brollies got soaked.
Todays Winner Paul Jay was fishing from peg 16 using 8mm banded pellet at 8m right in front of him. Second place birthday boy got a ton for his birthday and caught on the bomb with worm on the hook after not being able to get a bite on his pole lines.

10 anglers fished as 5 dropped out last minute.

The winner today caught on the feeder filled with pellet with meat on the hook and took full advantage of being end peg in the little lake.

Peg 32 fished to the bush with punched meat.

It seems the lake fished quite hard for the rest even though they had plenty of room each.

Jinx Series, Match 1. 2nd June 2012

.

 

The start of the Annual JINX Series at the lake and with Gem ‘The MINX’ only catching 1 roach on her last visit to the lake everyone was pretty confident they would escape her clutches. BUT The Minx force was strong today, she had drawn peg 2 and I foolishly told her where to fish 😀 The only person she did not ‘MINX’ last year was Fred Parker but she got him first go this year…A prime candidate for the MINX hat if ever there was one 😛 She also managed to win her section as Paul ‘Dick Turpin’ Jay was Guesting for Marcus Burgess.

The Minx herself, Gem Doyle

Gary Horne Invitational Match. 12th May 2012

.

Gary Horne, fresh from Egypt.

Gary Horne has 2 matches a year down the lake and today was the first one. 23 of Gary’s friends turned up at the lake hoping for a few fish. The weather at the start of the match was quite sunny but rain was forecast for later in the day.

A nice start to the day

Getting ready for the draw

Dive in quick ...

 

Nick Horne does not fish the lake very often but always seems to draw peg 18 or 32. Guess where he was today….

Nick on peg 32 again 😀

 

The fishing today was very patchy, people would have a few fish and then have to wait ages for a bite. It was hard to put a good run of fish together. People were having to swap and change swims to get the fish. While the sun was out the top end of the big lake was black with cruising and topping fish. Steve on peg 34 was the only person catching steadily through the match.

Looking down the carpark bank towards 32

 

20 minutes before the end of the match we had a storm hit the lake. The wind picked up and it rained very heavily. Everyone and everything was soaked, it lasted about 30 minute and then the sun came back up and the lake went flat calm in time for the weigh in…bloody typical.

Osprey’s AC Match. 22nd April 2012

 

Neil has just sent me the results for his club match back on the 22nd of April. This match last year produced some big weights but it was totally different weather last year. This year’s match was a different story though.

Today’s winner Ian Millin fishing from peg 28 used 10 pints of maggot and fished shallow long for the whole match catching everything from roach to carp. Malc Doyle in second place fished a short line with paste to keep the fishing coming. Completing the frame was Rolfs regular Mick Chappell fishing from peg 7.

Well done.
