Sunday 12th June - Open Match
Gary Thorpe "Still Spawning... but fishing better " Gary Thorpe commented at the draw bag that Peg 7 would do him nicely, and how right he was! Five hours and 296lb 12oz's later, Gary blew away all comers by the tune of at least 150lb from the weekend hotspot Peg 7. Fishing hard pellet on the hook, Gary took fish on the deck and later in the match up in the water. His key was feeding GOT feeder pellets, and lots of them. As of next week these are the only pellet allowed at the venue - it seems the fish will not be complaining about Rolf's decision. On the plus side, GOT Baits have a very competitive deal with Rolfslake that will advantage all anglers that visit the Oxfordshire venue.
Elsewhere, not as busy as Gary's peg but still plenty of fish to showing. Paste still not accounted for any single big weights, but It's just a matter of days now. A few bigger fish have already been taken on soft paste as the Carp have started to blow more and more. Watch this space. |
