Catch - 7 Carp
Weather - Hot & sunny
Match - Tackle Den (17 fished) - 2nd overall
With Steve Venn away on
holiday, it fell on me to run todays match. A significant change in the weather
meant today would be hot and it was no surprise to see the fish spawning, which
also meant it was likely to be tough day.
In the first hour I caught 3
carp, 2 on the method cast to the island with So Simple Kriller micros and a
6mm yellow gofter and 1 carp on the straight lead and 8mm meat boosted with
Kriller Sludge over pinged 6mm kriller pellet at 25m.
Another carp on the feeder
and then another on the lead, meant I was up to 5 fish after 2.5hrs. The
following 2.5hrs produced nothing. I even tried catching roach to put a few
extra pounds in the net but never had a bite.
In the last hour I managed 1
carp on three maggots from the left margin over dumped maggot and micros, with my
final carp coming from the right margins on meat.
By the all-out I was pleased
when the match finished and was surprised to have come 2nd overall.
