LCFC Sunday League Match - Clavering (Silver Lake) 7th October 2007
This was our First Club Match on the Silver Fish Lake at Clavering – A couple of members have fished it once or twice in the past. A bit of an unknown but rumoured that there are double carp and Bream to 5lb.
Today was also the Final Round of the inugrual Knockout Competition which was between John Buck and Kev Keeling
A smaller turnout today - 19 members - perhaps Autumn is kicking in ? 
I drew peg 2 – Gary Somerfeild my Partner in the Pairs competition to my right on peg 1 and Olly Wagg to my left the other side of the tree on peg 3
The Overhanging tree in between pegs 2 & 3
I set up a on the Hot spot pole – Main ain to get under the tree and the waggler and feeder as there was Fish up in the water further out. Drawing the feeder in on set up found weed so will fish up in the water out there – perhaps spray maggots and waggler on the drop.
A longer match today than normal 0830-1530. At the whistle feed under the tree tried the waggler 20 feet out where the Carp are rolling – but only a few small roach. So went in under the tree as I heard Olly with fish from his side. I was straight into small Bream then a couple of small carp, kept going like this until 1030am then went dead.

Tried down the right margin and back out in the centre – There was also less splashing activity from Olly also - Nobody else was getting anything Much until the afternoon when Ed Pearce and Fred Saunders on opposite banks started getting into Carp.
I got smashed up whilst in the margins 1 foot out in 18 inches of water – Float sinks and an eruption as a Long Slim Double of around 10lb leaps like a Salmon and immediately charges off – snap 2.5lb hook link has not chance as it makes its way into the centre.

In the last 1/2 hour there was his cruching sound of Carbon from the other side of the Lake where Mason Mills was doing a 'Boozy' and snapping up a Pole section and depositing in the Dustbin - Not sure what happend but sounded expensive.
I was last to weigh-in and Gary was sure I was going to win – I was not – A good Silver bag of 10lb+ but the Carp bag was not going to make it – and It didn’t enough only to finish in 4th 8 ozs behind Olly - The late charge from Ed was enough to Win with 23lb 12oz with Fred only a few ounces behind Ed for 2nd.
