Wednesday Open Match. 4th September 2013

Today’s open match was fished by 10 anglers. Mark Newbold pegged the match out for John. The weather was hot and sunny down the lake.

Results….

PLACE ANGLER PEG WEIGHT
1st Mark Newbold 5 321-11
2nd Mick Chappell 4 198-12
3rd Paul Jay 10 177-0
4th Kev Dolton 26 134-11
5th Pete Archer 8 132-6
6th John Draper 13 112-0
7th Dangerous Dave 16 80-14
8th Ben Bangham 32 74-9

John has asked me to put a foot not on these results. One angler had 120lb in a single net and also had 3 weighers in the net too. This as always is not acceptable especially when the weigh station and net box was right behind the peg involved.

Mark Newbold, Today’s winner. Well done. (fish not from today’s match.

I will be making a return to the lake on Friday to fish Gary Horne’s Annual match down the lake. The weather is supposed to be turning for the worse with rain forecast….Typical, hope my gore-tex still works 😀 😛

Thanks for reading. John, Eddie and Simon.

A very muggy day down the lake today with brisk winds and then flat calm.  16 anglers turned up hoping for a good days fishing. As you will tell by the results the fish seamed to be hanging around the mouth of the little lake and Chris Telling fishing on peg 8 took advantage of the fish in front of him to take the win and peg king of ‘end peg’ Michael Corsini 😀

Second today after a bit of time away from the lake was Jon Walker fishing from peg 9. Third place went to Paul Jay who managed to draw another flyer from the bag and make it work.

The Rabble

 

A very hard match down the lake today. The sun was shining at the start then it clouded over and we even had a thunderstorm and heavy showers. The fish were not playing ball today. I had a fish right away and then had to wait till the last 30 minutes for another fish. The rest of the big lake were also struggling with trying to get bites. The little lake seemed the place to be with Phil Powell making plenty of trips to the weigh station along with Jeff and Neal.
