Lee Chapel Sunday Match - Stambridge 7th May 2006 0900 >1500 hrs

Fished from Peg 14 at 10 metres & close in 3 metres. Using Waggler as quick fish in, hook, out, Net, Bait, In, method with Fish in Swim.
Baits: Sweetcorn and Mainly Single Red Maggot - Size 18 / 2lb Hooklink fish 2 inches over depth was best set-up for fish present in Swim which were small Skimmers and Hybrids. to 3/4lb.
Sweetcorn produced the better Skimmers. –
Total weight 20lb 7oz in 6 hr Match. Position 4th.
The Brothers Wagg finished 1st & 2nd - Olly (29Lb Mixed Bag 2 nice Carp) and Mick (Tiggy) 21lb of Silvers - who also fished with Waggler / Maggot. Ron Price finished 3rd with a mixed bag which beat me by 1oz.
Two other talking points - 3 eels caught, two at the same time by Gary / John on adjacent Pegs.
The true 'highlight’ of the day was 'Boozy' taking 35 minutes to land a double carp on size 8 elastic - bank it then handing into the keep net it slipped at the vital moment & bounced off the keep net band and into the lake - A potential Match winning fish gone.

So it is 'Taxi' for Boozy
