Partridge Spey and Ribbon 6/5/18

All is calm again with the Eggy Ferry lads after the Facebook Bull**** poster Sumo is silenced at Partridge.

After another week of constant drunken facebook posts the self proclaimed Prince of Partridge was shown how to do it by Andy and Bucko.
Thirteen of us made the trip and we had two lakes to fish on .
Spey lake had two sections on it consisting of a section of three and one of four. Ribbon had two sections of three and it was D section that provided the winning weight Andy was this weeks champ putting 75-04 in the sling .Andy caught shallow all day on Ribbon which turned out to fish a lot harder than Spey.
On Spey  Bucko announced his return and the subsequent arse kicking of Sumo with 69-15  caught long , short and down the track with pellet. This was enough for 2nd place and the section .
In B section despite having his ego knocked (at last )Sumo caught 52.03 for third place and the section,beating Patto by a mere 12 ounces. Hard luck Neil.
By the way Sumo  was on the same peg that Mr Crabtree had 297lb in the 1957 fisho qualifier.
On Ribbon in C section Housey made it three wins in a row in the most difficult section. Phil had 15-11 to take the money . Phil , your on a roll mate , keep it going.
A slight dampener on proceedings was the withdrawal of Gary from the match .After a skinful of ale and multiple kebabs on saturday night the master of mirth was confined to lying on the bank to sleep it off (been there myself )
Despite the weather and the fish starting to spawn it was a nice days fishing on a well kept and organised fishery.
Well done Andy and welcome back Bucko . Sumo has gone into facebook silence this week thank god but it doesn't stop me giving him the title the Spaz of Spey for this week.
Whilst doing the weigh in we were informed by Sumo that he would be doing a youtube video of how to get fish out of the net and into the sling properly as we were all amateurs I suggested that he might be better doing a video of hanging himself which was seconded by Bucko .
