Phil's day
Hi all, the Weds team fished its monthly interclub against Abbey Cross at Taylors Lake. We had a selection from 2 bags of pegs we chose the not so good pegs but, to be fair, there was some bad pegs in on both sides. I drew peg 35 - one out of where I would like to have been. Started off with casters and pellet for the bream and roach but it was a hard day all over even on the flyers. I did manage to catch a large skimmer bream and a bream of 3lb or so along with some nice rudd but couldn't keep them interested and weighed in 5lb 9oz for 7th place. Just wish I felt a bit better than I did - very achy and delicate so much so that when I got out the bath I did a covid test that was negative glad to say.
In first place was Jeff Pearson with 16lbs 7oz, 2nd was Peter Green with 16lbs 2oz, 3rd Alan Sims with 9lbs 3oz, 4th was John Carter with 8lbs 8oz and 5th was Alan Fox with 8lbs 1 oz. Abbey Cross won on the day with 100 points to Bishop's Stortford's 68.
There was a riddle of a half £5 note that has been sorted and its rightful owner will get it on Sun or Weds.
Pic is my peg that looked great.
