Match - Evening Club (11 fished) - 7th overall
We had 11 for tonight’s evening match and I somehow managed
to draw p21 again (the same peg as last match where I struggled for 10lb) – I was
not happy, as you can only fish the margins on a top kit and it didn’t plumb up
well. The only change to my approach from last week was I searched a little
wider to find a flat(ish) spot and found one to my right at 8m at 2 o’clock.
I decided to be quite aggressive with my feed as I felt it
was the only way to pull fish into the swim. As well as 4x 200g tins of meat, I
had 2pts of 4mm pellet and 3pts of micros – I wasn’t messing about.
On the all-in a half cup of meat and 4s was deposited at 8m
and 4mm pellet to my left over a 2+1 line. Initially the meat line only
produced silvers up to a pound including a rare barbel.
After 45mins I had my first bream and as the match
progressed, I found it was best to cup in feed after each fish, continuing to pick
up bream and some big hybrids.
The pellet line only produced a tench and a skimmer, as well
as loads of small fish pecking at the bait. However, I did foul hook 2 carp,
losing them both, which at least meant there were a few in the area.
Moving into the 2nd hour the pellet line was binned,
and I started feeding the margins with micros and meat. Its wasn’t until the 3rd
hour that I caught my first carp from the 8m line, soon followed by a 2nd.
As for my margin, I caught a couple more bream, eventually
catching a couple of carp late on.
My the all-out I knew I would be nowhere near framing, as I
just couldn’t find enough carp, although I was pleasantly surprised with my
weight of silvers which was the 3rd best silvers weight on the night
with Tom catching 30lb and Steve has 46lb.
