Next match saw us off to witherington farm which was put in place as our standby venue due to the River Parrott being unfishable.
All three lakes were in Cottage ,Sellwood and Barnmoor and having a breckie and sitting down and keeping my ears open i decided best place to draw was sellwood as that where the fish were showing the most.Hand went into the draw bag and section B came out (Sellwood) happy days i thought cant remember the peg no been a while i know it was in a corner and the wind had been blowing into that area all week (has lady luck finally came to give us a hand?)
I decided to fish right into the corner using micro pellet on the deck with with a soft expander over the top.
I decided to set another line up straight out in front around the 10 meter mark however i was expecting to catch any thing on it the depth must have been around 1 foot !!
water levels must of gone down i knew it wasn't all that deep but not that bad.
I set another line up towards the empty peg i had just of the corner where i had set a line up this line was deeper and was going to use the same tatics with pellet,
if the fish moved out of the cornor i was could move with them and just switch lines.
Right all in was called and away i went started slow to start with picking up the small silvers
but by the looks of things these could play a part as i couldn't see any one catching much in my section.
Half way through the match i was beginning to wonder if there were any carp in this corner ?
then dip float gone slight lift i was into a carp happy days i thought with 13hollow being pulled out it didn't take long to have it in the net a nice 3 pound carp couple more and i knew that what be enough for a section win. I reckoned i needed another 5 six in total with two hours to go float shot under again once again my elastic was showing and same as before didn't take long to have another one in the net. Things were looking up as i glanced around the lake i noticed one other fella catching next to me which could cause a problem as he wasnt catching carp but he was on the skimmers and nice big ones to boot.
I had two carp and a some good silvers in the nets but i need more i went on to land another two carp which gave me four how ever the fella on the skimmers was catch a good rate and i knew i needed a least another carp. The float shot under again with half hour to go it managed to tangle its self in the weeds which pissed me off and should have taken it slightly more care getting it out you can guess what happened next SNAP ! yep hooklength gone and no fish i knew that fish could have cost me how much i didn't know. A ll out was called and i knew i had blown it the fella next to me had started catching skimmers and bream and they just kept coming i had had a few carp and news was some on the far side to me had had a monster or two.
With the results in i found out that i was third in section being beaten by 500 gr for second and wasn't far off 1st that lost carp had cost me but hey i was back in the frame which was good to see.
