Peg 10 Heron Lake
50lb
2nd in section
2nd on lake
3rd overall
36 fished
This is my first winter league ever at Ivy House Lakes , which sees 36 anglers, which by todays standards is a great turn out. As even the Upper Thames AT winter league only has 48 on it, 6 proper teams of 8. And the Tunnel Barn Winter League has 4 teams of 8. So unfortunately the days of fishing 100 pegs leagues are long gone in my area. Shame, used to love them winter leagues that were 120 peggers!! When I was a boy they were 144 pegs.
Last weekend, I drew peg 6 on Heron and I really struggled and packed up early. Which is so UNLIKE me. Then had a friendly ripping from Derek Newson!!
Todays match
Drew peg 10, which is on Heron. This is a fantastic peg, so it was worth some bites. I started at 14.5 metres on maggots and mirco pellets. Then went to pellets at 16 metres.
I had two decent cap for 7lb between them and then mainly F1's. I reckon I had 50 fish, great stamp of fish, bars of gold them F1's.
