lovely landsend

18 booked in today so mike let us use the match and the far bank of the speci, thatchers platinum blond rent boy drew for me and handed me 28 which is halfway up the island on the speci lake, generally you need to be on an island end to do well , but i have done well off these mid pegs befor so i didnt really mind, and who drew flier 31 , yep fabio again , thats 6 times in 12 months surely he must get it right this time(not).
getting to my peg i was greeted with the sight of spawning fish, luckily it wasnt the carp but it seemed to be the f1 type things and the carp were having a bit of a mop up on the spawn.
3 rigs , a 4x10 impact 1 with a 16 b960 for banded pellet against the island in 15 inches of water and the same rig would do for down the edge, a 4x10 impact 10 (dibber) same hook and line for up in the water just in case and a 4x12 j3 for 14 mtrs same hook and line to fish in about 1 mtr of water .
no place for cups today so at the start it was catty,s only, i reckon i had my first carp on befor most people had finished cupping , so with an 8 pounder safely in the net it was back out on the 14 mtr line ,and i added another fish of a similar size about 10 mins later, then after a couple of liners and a lost fouler that was the end of the first hour and the end of that line.
over to the island and after a couple of liners number three was on its way, but at least it was a good double(13 tom 14lb) i would like to say that the bites came thick and fast , but they never , it was hard work as the fish seemed to need a constant bit of feed fired at them and a lot of lifting and dropping with a lot of the fish taking it on the drop, when i say lot i dont mean loads just the ones i caught, i only had one down the edge and that was the smallest at about 4lb.
i think i had 9 carp in the first 3 hours (with some big fish ), i had to wait till the last 15 minutes to get another carp it seemed the whole place switched off as most people struggled during the same period with the fish switching on towards the end, my peg was no different as in that last short spell in 3 put ins i had 2 grass carp in consecutive drops one of 12 lb and 1 of 14 lb , and on the last put in i had another double figure mirror, why couldnt they have started feeding a bit earlier, i ended up with the top weight on our lake with my 12 carp and 4lb of silvers going 123.2 with all the fish taking a banded 8 over loose fed 6,s
but it was only good enough for 2nd as my travelling partner dean malin on peg 17 had taken 35 carp on pellet against the island for 165.8
3rd went to the avon fire brigades only daffodil tony witcomb with 117.4 of paste cauht fish on peg 13
4h gary wall 106.8 peg 26
5th adrian bishop 86.4 peg 32
6th andy france 76.9 peg 24
top silvers went to john(the gimp)bradford on peg 7 with 42.10 all on caster at 3 mtrs
after looking at the results you can probably tell that fabio got it wrong again and could only manage 50 lb from what is the best peg in somerset lol sorry fabsy i had to say it. he really does need to find an extension for his pole so he can get to the far side, but he did lose a lot , i think he lost 4 befor he netted one.
i heard today that mat (the shrimp)tomes had been rushed into hospital with severe stomach pains , after a ct scan it appears he has developed a hole in his bowel(nasty) look on the bright side though now you got two bums you might be able to eat even more. or was it something to do with anton and nicky screwing you over the work but i dont think you meant it in that way lmao, get well soon mate i cos i dont know how long we can manage without you contribution to the pools .
