Peg 2 Pines
69lb
2nd in section
3rd on lake.
Team 7th
The second year of Joseph James Law match, which is a fantastic event and very well run again. Unfortunately team wise, we Colmic, had a tough draw on Ash Lake and Speimen Lake, but Pines me and Jamie had a fair chance. I was on peg 2, which I wasn't over keen on, as I felt the pegs to my left were going to much more productive, especially peg 5 (my favourite peg) as this seems to hold a lot of fish no matter what the conditions. It has a sunken island, so good waggler and feeder peg if the pole doesn't produce.
The Match
I started short, 5 meters hoping for a couple of cheeky fish..... err that didn't happen, and looking to my right all I could see was elastic out.... therefore, had no option to go long, and lost my first two, so come shallow, and caught a few on the drop. Was too scared to get the slapping rig, as the water is quite clear. And remember messing a match up, trying to be greedy.
I was a little disappointed that I missed out on the section by 5lb, felt I was miles behind..... BUT was lucky to beat Pete Archer by a 1lb. However, the team struggled. So hopefully third time lucky??
