Peg 33
96lb
Won match
16 fished
Back to Ivy House Lakes today, on the canals. I drew peg 33 on Moorhen, which is good area, so I was told, however I never fished ot before. More importantly Derek Newson is on peg 37, and we had a £2 side bet and it was all over Derek Newson Fan Page on Facebook. This was more important than the match...... pride.
The first 4 hours was tough, and was really struggling, couldn't get it right.  Paste at 5meters was void...  had some blowing, but only resulted in two small carp.
Lucky enough I started to catch some carp late, and found potting 2mm Marukyu Animo Pellets and maggots, but BIG potting after every fish was best.  Strange..... goes against the grain...... but wish I done it sooner, lucky enough it didn't cost me the match or £2!!!
Small video of me fishing, nothing fancy.

| Couldn't catch anything on paste down the track. | 
| Everything was caught long, apart from a couple of small carp at 5 meters and a few fish down the edge (1 small carp and 2 bream). | 
| Lovely carp | 
| My Garbolino UK2, seems to be a good luck charm... |
