- Peg 23
- 111lb 8oz
- Third overall
- 13 Fished
Back to Heron lake at Ivy House Lakes, which I have missed, as I haven't fished it for a while. Neil drew me peg 23, which is a good peg, to be honest at this time of year I believe the lake is very fair.
I set up shallow, edges, deck rigs, and a paste rig (October). Andy (owener) advised me to get the paste as a few of the locals had caught on it really well despite the weather been a little cold for "normal paste fishing".
I started at 4 metres on 6mm expander and caught immediately, but small carp and a couple of carp that didn't count (the small carp 1 to 2oz) to be swung in and then put back (to protect future stock). The fish had already offspring! This made me go to paste and it was solid, the first hour see me have 32lb, then I had spells of catching well and period of not. Edges didn't really come alive and unfortunately only caught 4oz to 6oz fish... I should of gone longer and shallow, but I felt my peg would get stronger been on an "end peg" and the last hour I would bag up!!! Err wrong, the last hour proved tough and see me, like a few others fade away. I'm not complaining, I had a good days fishing, but wanted to do better in the overall standings.
