The weather was very mixed throughout the day, along with the fishing. However, the benefits of the payout structure were illustrated perfectly today, with close battles for prizes all around the lake.
The Gnome drew his now customary flier, an end peg, conveniently full of fish. Making good use of it, Yozzer put 37lb 08oz on the scales, an equal split of silvers and carp, all caught on maggot. Enough for a comfortable victory, but winning only the same cash as Steve Coleman, who's 10lb was the lowest winning section weight. A much fairer system, especially on a peggy venue, and the winner still gets the glory...priceless.
The runner-up berth was filled by Kenny Stuart, who also fished maggot, over micros, and finished with a level 26lb. Nice one Mr Mastercatcher.
Jamie Pickup was third, even having time for a midmatch walkabout to check out the opposition. Jambo fished chopped worm n caster, putting his new Sensas 874 pole to good use at 14metres. His final tally was 22lb. Well done JP.
Section winners were Sumo with 14lb 12oz, Pato (he's my friend) with 15lb 04oz, and Colin Cook with 18lb 08oz. Congatulations to all the prize-winners.
