Well what can I say,,,,,,,,,,,,
We had sun we had snow we had hail we had George clooney and his gand riding the sevan seas with the storm?,,,,
Was a funny crack from the word go,,,
Those that wasn't there pmsl, rushys tackle consisted of 4 x 19ft rods and coupled with a Abu closed face reel, with a old Shakespeare bogey green box, (the type ya find in an old skip)
The fishing was a disaster FOR EVERYONE, I kicked things off first within literally the first 5 seconds I was Into a baby barbel thought it was gunna be a great day for me,, but how wrong I was,,,
Carpman was next to me sinking away in his duff peg and 1 point I thought he'd fallen in with all the racket he was making ha ha
Barker gave it his all desperate to beat the betting pundit but it wasn't to be 3 scamps he managed which is hard going
Carpman was getting ready to throw his gear in the drink and go home at 1 point but then lent ino a fish so kept him interested
The bites for me was picking up,,, small method with a 18-16 hook and 4mm-6mm pellet those that don't know me,,, this is where I usually fish like a demon on this setup, and could I pick fish up could I BOLL@cks
Hook pulls knocks twitches lost fish at the net,, I could not understand it at all,,, I changed my hook length 5 times,,,,,
It was the same on pellet waggler I cannot describe how bad it was unexplainable,,,
I noticed all the fish I landed had severe slices of about 10mm from the hook this to me says there new fish,,, or there ready to spawn who knows but i lost a lot of fish think most did too bit nothing big
Last year me and the lads bagged weights of 100lb200lb in similar conditions what's happend
Anyways Manchester United need to sign up bivveu boy as there new keeper this lad knew how to save his rod being pulled in the drink lol what a guy everytime I looked at him he was doing a David Seaman impression,,,,,
To conclude it was an epic epic epic day,,, I don't normally like Matches there usually 2 serious For me but this was a joy with all anglers evenly matched skill sets,,,
Well done to Rushy your trophy was nuts though lol
I hope to be apart of the next match and this should be made a monthly thing without doubt,,,
WELL DONE LADS
