Phil's day
Hi all, Weds club fished an interclub match against Safron Walden at Bordeux Pits. We were 2 to 1 down so needed a win today to draw. I drew peg 14 and having only fished this lake 3 times before I didn't know if I drew good or bad. I got to my peg and it looked quite reasonable with an island 15 meters over so a bit of scope in the peg so I thought. Started off feeding two lines; one at 10 meters with pellet and corn and one at 14 meters with micro pellet and red maggots. This proved the only productive spot - had a skimmer for 12 oz and the rest of the day had a few bits for a grand total of 1lb 8 oz. Thinking how bad it fished I assumed that everyone else had done a whole lot better - how wrong was I as the results show
1st John Todd with 6lbs 8oz, 2nd Roger Philips with 6lbs and half oz, 3rd Sam Robinson with 4lbs 2 oz, 4th Brian Newman with 3lbs 13oz and 5th was Mark Evens with 2lbs 15oz
Saffron Walden won the day with 57 points to Bishop's Stortford's 74
