Okay there is Bad news and good news
First the good news .......
The bad news was the Brinks , peg 19 . I really fancied and felt confident because of a earlier win on peg 14 but that was a good day and mild with a little water on.
Long walk to the peg ........ it was like being on a commercial fishery !
The fence and pegs 20 , 22 , 23 and 24
To my right up to peg 13 , started at peg 14 for the section.
The match is always over quickly when the fishing is at its least and i tried so many different methods and nothing came to fruition even when fining the tackle down to 22's / 0.06 line and 0.4 float , it was awful . In the end i scraped together 15-20 fish dominated by minnows with a few small roach , a chublet , Gudgeon and a Perch. If i would have fished Minnow all match i might have scrapped 100 bits and just beaten 4th place 0-14 oz .
Weigh in was best at the far end and Brad Titmus weighed in over 6-13 lb of peg 24.
MAS team sheet and to be fair considering we have been improving and finished 4th on the last round our pegs were not the best on the day. Only Vince and Clive had any respectable weights.
The section of ounces .........shame as i really love this stretch of river.
Well done Wigston from 7th on the last round to 1st on the 5th ......great result .
Top Ponds ......great section with lowest weight of 6-1 !!!!
Oh dear .........Sutton has taken a dive when i expected it to show some weights on this section at least
1860 with consistent weights as usual
Normanton still consistent also
The days better Sutton section
Kegworth still very good
Suttons middles sections fished well - ish !
Section of death on the Sutton.....4 dry nets ......what is wrong at this end of the stretch ?
Still a great days fishing in the company of so many good anglers .
Nice to see at the draw that Mark Downes was allowed to choose a peg amongst some chosen 'short-walk' pegs because of his recent surgery on his knee . It does make sense and i wish i had applied for that also for a few of my members in the early rounds who's physicality was tough for them on other sections . Its good to exercise some common sense to it all as we don't want anybody getting stressed , injured or passing out , its all about having a days fishing with many friends.
At the next captain meeting we should make that a rule for the series as we don't want any problems with the participants.
A shame we lost the Deeps sections but those will come back into the fold next season i am sure. Top ponds has performed brilliantly and its a shame we haven't got a few more sections similar as clearly Sutton is in the doldrums either end of the length . Maybe a good idea to have give the 60's a go ? The organisers Joff and Brian are doing a sterling job trying to get 90 pegs each work with considerations for transport etc.... so patience and understanding is needed plus after all this is Winter League and the fishing can be rather tough.
Dear SANTA can MAS have a better draw on WL 6 ?
