[31 Jan 2017 | Comments Off on Winter League Results Round 6 | ]

Sunday just gone was our 6th winter league match. Ricky Dennis’s draw arm was working it’s usual magic and he pulled peg 9 on Fir tree from the bag and caught a shed full! With the wind and rain blowing from the south at the start of the match I changed a few pegs from the last winter league match to give some shelter, but this didn’t matter as through the day the wind swung round to the north! I had an over weigh and was only 8oz from disqualification! Here are the results:

Fir tree pond:
1st Ricky Dennis peg 9 64lb 6oz
2nd Adrian Holland peg 15 14lb 7oz
3rd Alan Roberts peg 2 8lb 14oz

Heron Lake:
1st Neil Hodder peg 2 55lb 4oz
2nd Tony Jose peg 11 28lb 14oz
3rd Jimmy Crossley peg 9 21lb 6oz

Thanks to everyone who came and braved the weather.

Our next match is an open on Sunday 5th Feb hope to see you there.

Today’s open was fished on Heron Lake. Considering the cold weather and that there was a match on there yesterday it fished quite well and we had a close even match. Here are the results:

1st Neil Hodder peg 9 33lb 15oz
2nd Chris Bailey peg 17 30lb 6oz
3rd Ricky Dennis peg 20 25lb 2oz

I caught all my fish dobbing bread down the right hand margin in about 2 foot of water at between 12 and 13 metres.

Nice days fishing with great bunch of lads. Thanks for coming everyone.

Our next match is a winter league match on Fir tree pond and Heron Lake. Both be closed next Sunday.
