Today was a duel match, you could either fish for carp or Silver as there was a separate pool for both. John had offered anyone a bottle of champers if they broke the 100lb of silvers. With most people armed with worm and caster I think it’s fair to say most were going for the silvers today.<\/p>\n

Early morning wake up call<\/p><\/div>\n

The weather for once was nice and sunny with very little wind and NO rain \ud83d\ude00 Not the most perfect conditions for silver fishing most were saying. Fishing today was from 11.45 to 4.45.<\/p>\n

Simon and Michael pretty much had the lake lake to themselves along with 2 pleasure anglers who had turned up after leaving another fishery. Michael on peg 8 was using a whip to catch silvers, Simon on peg 6 was off to a great start with a big fish on straight away which spat the hook at the net, luckily it was followed by another which went 18lb 8oz, great start.<\/p>\n

After the first hour I had 6 carp and was off to weigh another and Michael told me that I was the only person to catch a carp, I didn’t believe him but it was true and the big lake was struggling for both carp and silvers.<\/p>\n

With 3 hours gone Michael could not resist after hearing the splashing from my peg \ud83d\ude00 and started going for the carp and started putting a few on the board and in the nets.<\/p>\n

At the all out I had 11 on the board (fish over 10lb are weighed and released) to 18lb 8oz and 14 in my nets (9 in one and 5 in another) along with 6 bream and some roach. Michael was claiming 30lb of silvers so I thought he had a least beaten my silver weight. Geoff had said Kev Dolton on peg 25 had a good bag of silvers so it was on to the weigh in.<\/p>\n
