Manor Farm Leisure - Island

• Sunday 28th
• Peg 23
• 59lb 8oz
• Won section
• 13 fished

Today's match look to a lot better, as the weather was much more milder and the wind nowhere near as strong. A seem to like drawing in the corner, however the wind was blowing into it, and therefore did fancy it for a few fish. However, my Mainline NRG meat didn't work today, and 6mm banded pellet was much more productive.

Yellow Meat gear, Drennan Carp Hair riggers and Preston quick stops.  I use 0.165 Colmic X5000 line, I wouldn't suggest going any lighter as these carp run big and they are very powerful.

 

 

Got a battering off the next peg though.

It is surprising how many big carp there are at Manor Farm Leisure, and I think with the cold weather coming, these carp are having a quick feed before the winter comes.  Last night’s frost was always going to make this a difficult fishing match, however very pleased with drawing peg 6, what a flyer!

Big fish trying to get under the rope.

 

I had 4 fish that would of gone 30lb.
