31 July 2016, New Lake (Willinghurst)

After a run of decent weights (if not results) it was back down to earth with a bump on peg 15 on New Lake at Willinghurst on Sunday where I was literally battered left (Tony Yianni, peg 17, 133-8-0), right (Paul Gibson, peg 12, 98-8-0) and centre (Jake Gallagher, peg 7, 106-6-0)!!!
 
All the gear ...
 
 
   
My plan of bagging-up on the long pole shallow early doors then coming down the edge for a couple of hours of epic catching at the end only produced 6 carp for 38-8-0 – and two of those came in the last 10 minutes!!! Though as Paul Weller once sang – We came out of it naturally the worst: Beaten and bloody, and I was sick down my shirt. We were no match for their untamed wit, though some of the lads said they'd be back next week ...
 
Until next time ...
