2013 - Fyrisan Series match 1 - SWEDBAIT sponsored.

Last years Fyrisan series was agreat success and due to that emergence of the 5 match league then the sponsorers recognised its value . So this year Swedbait  http://www.swedbait.se/  Have placed a considerable amount of prizes and money behind the series especially with products from MVDE .
Further sponsorship from Metemask.com  http://metmask.com/produkter/ and Midlands Angling Supplies Ltd. were available to supply free floats sent by Denez at Dino floats  http://issuu.com/cilapower/docs/dino2012_hi_res  http://www.thebestfloats.co.uk/

First match was to take place down stream of the Students sports arena . This was fished last year and it provided reasonable weights , how will it fish today ?

Beautiful setting for the first match of the series.

Quite alot of bankside foliage but easy to trample down at your peg .....only problem was those dam mosquitos , they did'nt go till that sun got stronger , i must have been had a dozend times on my back ....little beggars , hate them !

This is not so beautiful , graffitti ! produced by scum .

Men of MAU , Johan Tikanen with a sizeable wedge of money and Jimmy getting his energy levels up with a Skit-Macka.

Expectancy in the air as the competitors gathered for the draw

The draw started ......Rolf

Jimmy

Johan

Decision for the day , keep in black so i emptied a 2 kilo bag of Gros Gardons with a couple of bags of Pidgeon shit and 2 dark leams . The lighter gbait i decided a NO !

In the mix !

Corn Worm under wet towel due to strong sun and hemp

Tares ! ....why not , give them a chance. Maggot and Pinkie

Lena on peg 14 with a nice 3 kilos plus and a handsome Perch

Pierre fished a great match taking Skimmers at 5 and 13 m with a great weight of 6.2 kilos

Hasse to me left who started of like a train taking roach on treble maggot ....finished with 3 kilos plus

I had a shocking start to defending my trophy , i started late , and did not start fishing till 15 minutes into the match. Then i snapped a rig then re-rigged , then lost a hook on a 5 metre whip , - wtf !

Eventually i started to catch at 12metres holding back hard and picked up 8 skimmers in the last 35 minutes to get 3.5 kilos.Not a good day at the office !

Great catch of bleak

Well deserved bag of fish to my right

Jimmy Band of Brother MAU with 2nd best weight on the day

Rolf with a confident smile and 1st place ....great bag of fish !

Johan on peg 2 with 3plus kilos and nice skimmers
