I dipped into the bowl of pegs and pulled out 12 - not over impressed to be fair, its not got a lot of form, it's in a bay and if the fish aren't in there then it can be lean times. I had plenty of caster left over from the silvers pairs, so had the option of fishing for carp or silvers. I decided that a day on the hard pellet would be the way forward, so mainly set out a stall to fish that a t 14.5m.
The peg does have a margin down to the left hand side, limited by a overhanging tree. So a rig to fish at about 10m down to the left.
Started on 6mm banded pellet and fed two lines, one straight out in front and one off about 11 o'clock, fed the one straight in front with micros and 4mm's, the 11 o'clock line with just hard 4's and a few 6's. The line in front had a few skimmers show, the 11 o'clock line produced 2 carp and a few skimmers - this was all in the first couple of hours, it died off then and I had two small carp down the edge in the last hour. I think the fish moved out of the bay and that was it, still I managed 5th and it was more than I thought I'd get from the peg.
Happy New Year to all and next up is Acorn Winter League and the Todber Winter League.
