Catch - 3 Carp, 19 Skimmers, 1 Perch
Weather - Cool wet start, sunshine and showers
Match - All Winners Final - 67 fished
At last the all winners final and the majority wanted a draw on Campbell, although I thought Cary or Spring might throw up a surprise.
As regular readers will know I can't get near Campbell and I really hoped today would be the day. Sadly not as my drawing arm seems to have completely fallen off recently, pulling 57 in the corner of Lodge and probably the one of the worst pegs I could have drawn.
Well this blog will be short, because I struggled to get any bites. I tried the straight lead towards the aerator and despite pinging pellets all match, never had a bite.
After an hour I switched to fishing 6mm pellet at 13m, looking to catch skimmers and hoping to pull in some carp. I did catch a few skimmers and lost 2 foul hooked carp, but wasn't going anyway fast.
I also hoped for a late run of carp down my margins on maggot or worm over groundbait, but 3 carp for about 35lb wasn't nearly enough.
A day to forget unfortunately and well done to those who framed.
