Silver Match 1 (2011 )posted on 1 March 2011 | posted in Articles / NewsHi All Just a quick report to let everyone know how the 1st Silver Fish match went Early start with a 8am check in and with the weather looking good , So it was set to be a great match So with the Draw on the way and with 3 on the little lake and 4 on the big Lake Fishing was a little slow and you had to really work hard to get the fish feeding as the lakes was still very cold and eastly winds on the bigger lake Then the bad weather hit us and trust me it was not nice with large hailstones coming down and the wind picking up at one point making must members brollys spinning around Fishing was really slow for me when the bad weather hit us with only a fish every 15 mins if I was lucky Anyway here are the results Results was Me 8lb 10 0z Andy 7lb 10 0z Joe 5lb 11 0z Lee Blundell 4lb 15 0z Raymond 1lb 12 0z Mark 140z Mich - No weight Not weighed In Joe also had biggest Fish a roach of 13 0z Plus I had a couple around the 11 oz mark I must say a very well done to everyone who fished the match as it wasn't easy at all , and great to see some great weights coming out as I checked a lot of other matches on this weekend and winning weights was as low as 3lb on packed full fish lakes Plus I was very happy to see the quality of fish caught from both lakes without any marks on them (Mint) which is very rare to see theses days on other lakes I must say I really have a big Buzz about the two lakes this year and can see some really nice fish and weights coming out Just a few more things to say is that full credit to Mark and this Catch from the little lake with some mint Carp but sadly carp didn't count in this Match and Andes work rate along with Lee Full Credit to them ... And Even Young Joe really getting into it and Raymond having a great Bash at It But really full credit Once again to everyone that fished the match , It was great to see and most of all a very enjoyable days fishing with Friends The only thing that gutted a few of us was that When we went to weigh Lees Fish in we couldn't find this Keepnet , The wind must of blowed it in Very Strange as I know Lee worked hard thought the match and had the skimmers going for sure Must be a wonder bait he has stuck up this sleeve In till next time Justin
