Gary Thorpe
(GOT Ton UP)
Peg 24 - 96lb

Gary Thorpe doesn't draw good pegs, or so he often can be heard to mutter as he leaves the draw hut! Well he's right and for the second week running he drew a Fantastic Peg! Peg 24. This week Gary once again used up the rest of the bag of his new GOT TON UP pellets to draw 97lb of prime winter Carp from the chilled waters at the Rolfslake hot spot. Gary was delighted with the drawing power of his new pellet as he once again almost doubled the weight of those around him.

Gary's win was made a touch easier with Stan Robak's somewhat obsessive draw to the silver fish, even though he had drawn a belting in form Carp peg. Unable to catch any Silver's Stan switched to the Carp line and plundered 51lb 8oz for runners up spot - pushing Pete Coxhead down to 3rd who took 49lb from the consistent peg 15. Pete fished long and fished sweetcorn on the deck over 2 and 4mm pellet at 16m, as did 1st and 2nd place.
