Peg 22 Heron
78lb
5th overall
14 anglers fished.
Got destroyed today by Dave (weights and Vlog below).
I had a lovely day, 105lb, peg 7 on Windmill Pool. See video below.
Was back to Ivy House Lakes today for a pairs match, which Mark Poppleton asked me to be his partner for the day, the match was run by Jon Darby.
There was three sections spread across the lakes (Old Match Lake and Willow) and three sections spread across the canals (Moorhen and Kindfisher). I drew Mark peg 10 on the OML and myself peg 31, which is on Moorhen. Moorhen is lake that I haven't fished for while, but I knew I was up against as I was in the middle of the lake, the narrowest part of the lake and had two end pegs to compete against (not making excuses).
My attack was all about pellets and looking to catch stockies and a few skimmers, if I'm really lucky maybe catch some decent carp.
Mark did really well, won his lake and second overall (he won yesterday's open match too) with 150lb!! I came second in my section with 91lb, had a fantastic day, loads of bites caught over 100 fish. We had three points and came second overall with 18 pairs.
Top pairs on the day
Henry smith and Dwaine Seed 2 points
Mark Poppleton and Chris Telling (me) 3 points
Lee Janczyszyn Craig gilroy 4 points
Clayton Hudson Bob gullick 4 points
