Match News

First Match Report.  Sunday March 10^th 2013.

A very cold day, the water temperature was rising as the day went on, a full 3 degrees at 2 pm.  !

9 braved the weather and all sat out the full 5 hrs hoping for a raffle on prize money.

This was not to be !  

1^st) Trevor, Peg 34. sneaked 1 bite and landed it, a 10oz bream.

2^nd) John D,Peg 1.  1 bite and landed it a 2oz Roach. Being generous calling it 2oz !

3^rd) Alan C,  Peg 8.  1 bite at 10:45 missed it.

Only joking on the 3^rd but I did have a bite, I just got over excited at the tip moving and struck like a plonker.

We know this is always a hard match unless we have an early Indian summer, and the water warms up a bit.

April 14^th WILL BE BETTER. And expecting 12 to 15 entrants.

We are looking at a league format for matches, this year the winner takes all and estimate apx £50 as the prize.

We may tweak the points / scoring etc, Will explain at the next match and see if anybody has any ideas to improve.
