29th Sept - Lloyds Meadow - Badger

After a hasty change from Chester Lakes Rick sorted us out on Badger after some recent good results. Before the all in we had an 'incident' when amongst sunny spells a rain cloud passed over. A few girls including Jeff Grantham put their brolly's up and when Jeff moved 3ft off his box to get a top kit a freak gust took his brolly, box, bait side tray, two keepnets etc etc 6m into the lake and the wind proceeded to try to sail it across the lake!!

After much laughter, then abuse as we had to delay the start to rescue the Daiwa Box Iceberg the match kicked off with Jeff Grantham's inside line well and truly fed before the all in!!!

Ian Simpson kicked off with no feed short of the brambles in 4ft on pellet after several sessions on Lloyds when they back off straight away when fed but 9 carp in 9 drops suggested it was black!! Eventually needing to feed to keep them coming out of the brambles he went on to amass a winning 132.5lb.

Rob Dickinson managed to keep eeking a few from two far bank swims for 72.5lb enough to win many matches on Lloyds and Ian Lloyd did the same from left hand side for 3rd and 63.1lb. Sections went to Jeff Grantham who managed 35.8lb and admitted to catching nothing on the inside for some reason. Steve Gilmore started very well next to the winner but slowed in the second half but still managed 45.5lb.
