Gloucester Canal - Open

  • Peg 192
  • 2lb 4oz (15 roach and 2 skimmers)
  • Last


    Really stuggled, back to the drawing board......
    DAIWA GORDON LEAGUE OPEN - SIMMS BRIDGE TO PILOT BRIDGE
    54 PEGS
    Fished on the unfashionable Simms to Pilot length everyone was talking about the Pilot Tanker Bay as the the place to be, the Gloucester Canal however once again had different ideas - put simply no one can predict where the winner will come from on this venue.  Whilst the skimmers dissappeared roach dominated in another tight frame. Steve Ford, Daiwa Gordon League, swapped carp for quality roach to win this one from permanent peg 188 on the straight above Rea bridge, where he fished feeder for 11lbs 3 oz, a net containing 4 roach over a pound. Second was Alan Jones (Daiwa Gordon League) on peg 278 next to Pilot bridge where he caught 10lbs 11oz of roach on short and long pole, maggot over groundbait. Tony Price was third with a level feeder caught 10lbs from in the middle of the Simms Rea length.
    1st S Ford, Daiwa Gordon League, Gloucester, 11- 3 - 0
    2nd A Jones, Daiwa Gordon League, Gloucester  10 - 11 - 0
    3rd Tony Price, Gloucester  10 - 0 - 0
    4th  J Gaylard, Daiwa Gordon League, Gloucester, 9 -12 - 0

  • Peg 5

  • 3lb 8oz ( 11 fish, 4 bleak, 3 skimmers and 4 roach)

  • Last

  • 26 people fished



    • Got battered again

    Due to a rowing Regatta on the rest of the canal this latest Sunday open was run between Hempsted Bridge and the Docks. Although pegs in Monk Meadow dock did not produce as expected, weights were again good throughout the remainder of the length.  Winner on the day from a pegs on the Hempsted upstream length was Ian Sheppard (Daiwa Gordon League) who landed skimmers up to a pound and a half on pole and maggot to weigh 18lbs 3oz.  On the next peg experienced Gloucester Canal angler Brian Pollard was second with 13lbs 13oz, again on the pole but fishing punch bread, and including some quality roach in his net.
    1st I Sheppard, Daiwa Gordon League, Warwickshire, 18 - 3 - 0
    2nd B Pollard, Daiwa Gordon League, Gloucester  13 - 13 - 0

    .
    Still haven't got this pellet fishing sorted, I’m missing a couple of vital fish in order to more me into a frame place!   Last couple of matches I have struggled to maintain a steady stream of fish.........

    • I'm unsure if to feed one line, gets exhausted more start another fresh line, then move onto another.
    • Rotating between two lines, feed one and then fish other and rotate, this gives the fish time to settle (have been doing this and feel this isn't 100% correct)
    • How much to feed?  To each bite or fish? 
    • Do you feed ten, fifteen, twenty, etc 4mm pellets? 
    • Is micro’s better for these new stocky fish? 
    • "Pinging pellets on top" (fish coming to noise, but can bring them up-in-the-water and you can over do it i.e. feed too much)
    Generally speaking more positive feeding will result in more carp, Manor has a large head of carp, but today I only had one.  Also speaking to other anglers not many carp fed today.  Micro’s did result in a few missed bites once the carp was feeding on Middle's match on Saturday, but I felt that the micro bought more small F1's into the peg or encouraged them to feed, but when the carp feed I missed a couple of bites, and therefore only fed 4mm's and began to connect with the bites.  But them missed bites maybe have cost me section win.
