16th May - Hjälmare kanal - out with the Trosa Club

 What can i say but , what a marvellous venue , car to the peg with an easy bank to place the gear on , absolute quality choice to fish here .




There are a few layby areas so general public can pass in their cars 



Looking to the right of my peg 
- how good is this place !









I decided to make 4 pole rigs of approx. 1.25 to 1.75 in depth . Three rigs were for a 9-11m line and a close rig to fish at 3-4m also with a whip . Groundbait on the day was from the MIVARDI stable sold at MetMask including the best bait in Sweden now cited by many fine anglers and clubs , great work Russ.

The match commenced and i placed three balls in at 11m and placed a few closer balls by hand . I immediately went out on a MAS SM1 1.25gr with a EXNER 1.0gr olivetti with droppers and to a 16s 3405 SENSAS . In the first 30 mins or so all of us caught in our 5 man section but they were mostly small fish with nuisance bleak trying to muscle in so i switched to a 14s hook and half a worm and the effect was direct as i landed a bream about a kilo and a good skimmer . Then i lost two so i decided to change to my lighter elastics like solid SENSAS yellow No5 and MATRIX 3-4 . This helped but the Bleak were still a nuisance so i fed more ground bait closer to prepare for some speed fishing but then fed just chopped worm in soil with plenty of corn and dead maggots at 9m . It was good all the way till the last 90 minutes when my peg started to die yet to my right they were catching quite well . I tried to create a new area but that failed so i started to catch small fish closer but not quick enough so i changed back to 9-11m line and fished the corn taking two large roach and two large Rudd but my last 30 minutes was a disaster as only a few small roach and Bjorkna .

I weighed in just 9860 for a 4/5 in section






The comedian Percy to my right showing his best fish 




Thats more like it and a 5600 for Percy 


Jimmy next with a great haul ob 16 plus kilos 








I think he had 13 kilos ?



Johan about 12 kilos ?

There was another section further away and we heard that was won with 17 kilos !

Great venue and i really want to get back there for another match soon
