GORSTY HALL, 26/8/12 ~ Col does best in pellet wagfest

Recent match results from the Gorsty website suggested it was an improved venue this year (not that it hasn't been good to us in the past). The weather was pleasant enough, and the fishing proved to be good too.
In a low-key affair, Colin Cook took the honours with a carp net of 50lb 08oz, all caught on pellet waggler to the lilies. Good effort Col.  
In a head to head duel, Lee Pickup also caught carp steadily through the match, and from the adjacent peg, he weighed an excellent 48lb 09oz on similar tactics.
Third place was filled by Jamie Pickup, again using the Pwag for carp to the tune of 36lb.
Section B went to Dennis Jones with 29lb on the waggler and straight bomb. He generously lost enough carp to have won the match, thus ensuring the bonus peg is still alive for the next match. Section A went to Yozzer with an assortment of skimmers and cruies on pole-fished meat, which totalled 35lb 12oz.
