Windmill Fishery

Sunday 24th May 2015

Chris decided the other day that it was about time he visited Windmill Fishery in order to defeat his gremlins.(He's always struggled there!) Lordy had been to Ivy House the day before and had some expanders to use up so he went along as well. This was a good idea really as he had qualified last week for the semi finals of the South Gloucestershire show and therefore a practice session seemed on the cards.
Drennan keepnets available at Fish & Field

Chris drew peg 22 and Lordy drew peg 23 making it a neighbourly affair. Chris decided not to use his lead rod but stuck to the pole at 16m to get as close to the island as he could. In the meantime Lordy put an 8mm pellet on the straight lead in amongst the ducks (who consumed at least half of his pellet feed during the day) ands was rewarded with three carp fairly promptly. Over the course of the match he varied it between the straight lead and the pole at 8m using the leftover 6mm expanders to finish with 50lb 7oz and first place.(No longer the bridesmaid!)
No more the bridesmaid!

Chris varied it between 16m and 4m but it took him until the last hour or so to start bringing in the carp. He finished with 19lb 6oz.

The Sedges Top 2 Tournament

Round 1 Sunday 10th May 2015
Fishing with just the top two of your pole can be a hairy event, especially when the carp decide to turn up, but this is exactly what 20 intrepid anglers, with another 20 anglers on another day, did on a cloudy and windy day.
Pegs 31 to 40 on Tile Lake. The upper numbers are favoured when it comes to bagging up on the carp.

Chris drew peg 33 which is not a renowned carp peg so he decided to fish for silvers, hoping maybe that the carp would come to his constant feeding of the caster. Chris fished shallow using the same rig as the one he used at Ivy House and by the end of the day had amassed a total of 23lb to win the silvers pool.
A handsome net of silvers from peg 33

Lordy was placed in peg 36, next door to John Wintle, a customer of Fish & Field, and the usual £1 wager was put into place!
No matter how he tried, John could not find enough fish in his net. He lost his £1
 Initially Lordy also fished shallow caster but after an hour had only a few small roach in the net. He reverted to fishing near the bottom of the slope with a Drennan carp 5 0.75g float, a size 16 hook and Diawa grey hydro in his top two. It took him several hours and the benefit of listening to his other neighbour before he reverted to meat on the hook. In the last hour he netted twelve carp to weigh in with 97lb and fourth place (bridesmaid again!!)
Four of the twelve carp who turned up in the last hour

The next round is on 14th June - just before Evesham which is Chris' favourite venue. Watch this space!
