Simple Match Fishing Forum

After the last match and a tough week down stafford moor I expected this one to be very hard and it was. After the match start time was changed after malcom got stuck not si this time . We started at 10am till 3pm. I set up 1 pole line at 11 meters and fished it 6inches over depth to combat the tow it was about 11 foot deep to . I expected the tip to do the business again and I drew a bad peg again on the left side along with si 2 pegs down.

I started with a small pot of pellet and corn on the pole and nothing so I potted in a pot of maggot and went on the tip I had a small roach on the tip and was happy to even get a fish . I then had a look on the pole and a big chub but that was all.
Nothing else happened untill si packed up after 2 hours and everyone ripped him about it . With an hour left after no more fish on the feeder I swapped onto the bomb and lobbed it out into the middle and had four carp in the last hour went on it too late

A good day shame about tink missing it though.
