Back to Gold Valley for the open match on Middle Lake again today, peg 75 to be precise. Things started well with a dobbed 10 pounder in the net after 7 minutes!!! Unfortunately this wasn't the sign of things to come and the dobbable fish that were present before the all-in soon disappeared. A switch to the new fish was equally disappointing - after 90 minutes I'd completely given-up on trying to catch them as I only had 8 in the net and was going nowhere fast! The remainder of the match was pretty tortuous too as I only managed three more fish (all on the pellet waggler) - an 8 pounder, a 4 pounder and a new fish - for a below par 30-4-0, though this was enough to beat Tom Arnot off the next peg and was actually fifth (out of twelve) on the causeway bank as it fished much, much harder than of late.
