Quarry pool last wednesday match
Posted: October 8th, 2008, 6:44 pm
Today was the last matcha nd after getting the day of from school I was looking forward to it. After a cold night I thought it would fish bad. We met at helga's sandwich place and after breaky we paid up and went to the pool.
It was meant to be every peg a golden peg but as it was won last wednesday by woody we didn't bother with it. We had the pegs by the tree and I drew peg 29 a good peg for a change
. I set up a shallow rig, one light and one heavy rig at 10 meters and another at 11.5 meters. At the all in I fed a pot of 4mm's and some corn, went over the top and had the first fish of the day after 5mins.
I had a steady run of small carp untill the last 2 hours when it went dead so I went on the tip and had 2 in 2 chucks before that died to
. Back on the pole with just over a 80mins left so I changed the way I was feeding adn foul hooked a few and a got a few out before the all out at 3pm. With tommo bagging in the last hour it was going to be close.
I had all my fish on the soft pellet apart from the 2 on the tip as they were on the hard pellet. In the finish I had 16 carp and a goldfish, tommo had 9 carp but it was close.
1st JJ Gallagher 57lb 4oz
2nd Tommo 51lb 7oz (9 fish
)
3rd M Bethall 24lb
It fished well for me although it was very cold looking forward to next year and can't wait to go back to quarry pool
it's solid
