2024 - May 4th , 5th - Nykoping Feeder competition

Nykoping Feeder weekend evokes great memories over the years of very large weights of Bream , Tench, Ide , Bjorkna and Rudd however with the longer winter temperature (last weekend snowed on first day of Arboga) it was hoped for good weights considering that on 6th and 7th April was the first match at the venue and 15 anglers blanked on both days !!!  Surely it will fish well as we are greeted by warm sunny weather on the Saturday ?

2nd day view from the Masters section












First day of competition and unfortunately , again ! I failed to impress only securing 1 Bream and the rest were small Bjorkna , Rudd , roach and Bleak !!😞😞😞 . During the match i got neck ache watching Ivan to my left and Esa to my right catch a good stamp of fish . Again ! like Arboga i lose 2 Bream in snags !! 

Ivan the Terrible from Croatia 😀




Esa - Bream master - how does he do it ?




Kjell with the biggest Russ of the day - 850gr




Patrick on end peg with a decent Ide



DAY2 - A change of weather happened (typical weather at the moment in Sweden) as the promise of just cloudy weather ..........umm yet it rained off and on and was quite cool during the first half of the competition !





Ivan the T relaxing before the start and today has better non-leaking boots ( myself had the same problem on first day )



The wind started to get up so all is promising for those Big bream shoals to arrive 



Well , what can i say but on Peg 2 (previous days winner) started well until i lost my first Bream on a snag when half way bringing it in . I persisted and caught many small fish but again i was cursed with snags and loads more weed being hooked up as i lost another Bream and i think a third but unsure of its size . To my Right was Esa who had far more snags on the peg (my peg the day before ) , he too lost a few Bream and most of all snapped of on his leaders three times as he had a whole procession of snagging worst than me . He still ended up more fish than myself . 



Ivan on peg 1 was again snag free - how did he do that ? - nice Rudd



Still managed a smile but losing the three biggest put a damper on my day - thats fishing !



Esa must have lost 5 kilos of fish and re-threading time on both feeder rods 


Kjell enjoyed the day and started well with a large fish only for it to be a 2 kilo Pike !!



Mr Metmask enjoyed his day with 16 kilos and lost a tench



The sections happiest angler was Patrick who drew the same peg the day before and possibly was not looking forward to it but he sacked up 24 kilos - well done mate 






Day 1 winner of section A in the OPEN match was Stefan 'The Bagging machine' Holst



OPEN RESULTS - 1st Day



MASTERS - 1st day 






CONGRATULATIONS - to Mats Larsson for another well run competition as he is a great organiser.

HEALTH PROBLEM  - Sad to hear that on Sunday Tom could not make it as his back problem returns , get well mate and we all hope to see you back on the bank soon .

WANTED ! ........someone to Coach me back to normality  😂😂😂😂😂
