After a change of venue, moving from the Meridian Canal the weather and venue looked good for the latest WBAC episode.
Dougie Walsh ran out the winner with some good sized carp on groundbait and maggot to the island for 47.5lb. Jeff Grantham drew the barbel hole but managed to secure second with a virtually all chub 44.6lb taken on worm with caster. Rob Dickenson drew a (its becoming business as usual) corner peg (makes a change form an end peg I suppose) and proceeded to lose numerous carp and barbel in the lilies. He managed to 'skull' a few out for 3rd. Dave Gentile managed fourth with the help of Ian S's "infamous foulhooker" pellets after finding his own floated. Ian Simpson won section A with 20.1lb or carp and silvers to maggot with Ian Lloyd taking the other section with 15.5lb.
After the usual banter at the draw Keith who drew 18 (out of 18) and Steve Gilmore who drew 7 were a bit gobsmacked to find Steve on end peg next to Keith. Rick is clearly struggling with his counting these days and went round pegging .....4,5,6,8,9 etc finishing with 16,17,18,"shit it'll have to be 7 I've missed it out mate.....I'll tell them at the draw mate, it'll be fine mate!!!"
All in all a decent day even if the carp were far from wanting to feed with as many lost as landed probably due to foulhooking. With any luck by the time of our next match in July spawning should be well and truely over!
