The venue itself is picture book with a superb hotel on the waters front and the lake looking so idylic no wonder anglers are attracted to this picture-postcard venue ......also because there are alot of carp in it.
In the mix , Band of MAU brothers conferring over each other mix of the day. None of us had a clear idea what we were going to mix , i had a dark and brown mix for feeder and waggler . Tim went with a red-ish mix , Mats went with a yellow and brown mix and Johan ?......cant remember , but i think it was a brown mix.
Venue is excellent , 10 metre walk with kit from car to the bank.
Tim mixing it red-ish
Hotel car park was superb placement for easy transition of equipment.
Peg 8 , mine .....clear skies , smooth water , recipe for 'not a good days fishing' for skimmers !
The draw was efficient and fast with pegs 1-9 for elite klass and 2 pegs for the not so elite.
Its the start of the event on a glorious sunny day , not a skimmer day :-(
Weigh-in time
Tim on end peg or should i call it 'end-snag'
Rolf next
4 hours for 3 fish ....this was typical !!
Kenneth faired better and took an all roach catch on the pole for the winning weight.
He (Kenneth) won but did'nt think much to the day's proceedings :-)
Bodd-miester with 3 skimmers
Roger had a few more but it was tough going.
Tom shown his class to 'grind' out a few fish
Johan frustrated with the day fishing and feeling rather hungry almost took a roach snack instead of a korv as promised after the match.
Lena shown the boys how to fish with a great net of small roach
Peg snag 1 seen Tim break off his waggler line leaving a prize Cralusso waggler float in the water. As much as he tried he was unable to retrieve it, so , only one thing left to do ......
In lane 1 representing England is Tim Heighes ready to Cralusso doggy paddle the 25 metres event.
Padooooooooooooooooosh!
target negotiated , now for return
Loads of line wrapped around his foot
All worth it ....float returns to rightful owner :-)
Brrrrr ! ....water was cool
Disappointing day overall for all competitors but the venue was superb and the weather just as good.Maybe next year and earlier match could be planned.
Well done to Mats and Johan for bait and organisation. Also huge thanks to Russ at METMASK.COM for supplying excellent bait for the day - much appreciated.
