Apologies if the weights for the last one are not exact as they are from memory, I normally take a pic of the match book.
This last match was memorable for the shear number of good fish topping all along the stretch. If only you could find a method to catch them. I, along with others, have tried and it is most frustrating to have them topping around your float and not getting any bites. There was a slight frost overnight and with little flow and bright sunshine it proved a struggle for most. Peter Williams gave us all a lesson on float fishing. Jamie Allen managed to winkle out a Bream but they have proved illusive so far this year.
Next match is again on the Mersey, next Sunday 4th October, usual 08:00 am on the car park.
