Cluckers Peg: April 2014
http://cluckerspeg.blogspot.com/2014_04_01_archive.html
I hope to post updates of my angling exploits, give hints and tips on venues and methods I fish, and maybe tell a few old stories. Sunday, 6 April 2014. I travelled to the match with Paul Elmes (I think he should have been in the cartoon Wacky Races) and Craig "Trigger" Edmunds, two of the best commercial anglers around, although Trig said Paul was the best at drawing fliers! For 20 mins I never had a bite. Clint Wojtyla won the silvers on my lake and overall with nearly 30lb of roach and rudd. I can't r...

Cluckers Peg: May 2014

I hope to post updates of my angling exploits, give hints and tips on venues and methods I fish, and maybe tell a few old stories. Sunday, 25 May 2014. Today and August 1995. I will just start off today by saying that I have had a better week personally although I am still a long way from "normal". Today I drove to Viaduct fishery and watched the league match that was taking place, this was a big step for me as I would be a long drive and a long way from the toilet! On Saturday 19th August I fished a mat...

ATWL Round 3 Bristol Avon Swineford, Crane and Jack Whites. Sunday morning, thanks for the extra hour in bed but why did I feel knackered? Liam Braddell is still being entrusted to draw for the team (we've been first every time he draws this year! Another ATWL next week, back up at Newbridge. Sunday, 19 October 2014. I was looking forward to this matc...

Maesknoll Match Angling: Float Only League Round 4. Ivy House, Sunday 19th July 2015
http://maesknollmatchangling.blogspot.com/2015/07/float-only-league-round-4-ivy-house.html
Wednesday, 22 July 2015. Float Only League Round 4. Ivy House, Sunday 19th July 2015. After Tuesdays practice match, I had decided to stick with pellet and maggot for down the edge for this round of the float only, although I did have a couple of pints of live maggot in case I drew the canal. A decent weight of skimmers had come from this bank on Tuesday, taken on paste, so I set up a paste rig, to fish over the pellet feed. Switching back to soft pellet saw the float going under again, but the skimmers ...

Maesknoll Match Angling: February 2015
http://maesknollmatchangling.blogspot.com/2015_02_01_archive.html
Sunday, 22 February 2015. Landsend Winter League R4. Sunday 22nd February 2015. Lets start with the good points about today, usual good breakfast, some good company amd banter and when I got home, a few beers and a kebab for tea, perfect. My pitiful effort went just over 10lb for last in section ( Trigger had a carp, foul hooked, bigger than my two little 'uns put together). The only saving grace was my perch gave me second in silvers section, so I now have two wins, a second and a last in section fo...

Maesknoll Match Angling: Viaduct Spring League, Round Four, Sunday 7th June 2015
http://maesknollmatchangling.blogspot.com/2015/06/viaduct-spring-league-round-four-sunday.html
Monday, 8 June 2015. Viaduct Spring League, Round Four, Sunday 7th June 2015. I am fairly confused by this league, or at least, by my results in it, I wouldn't have expected to do so poorly, even given the high quality of anglers fishing. This match has compounded my misery and I still don't know if I am doing something drastically wrong. Upwards and onwards, Landsend next Sunday, looking forward to that, then an open on Tuedsay at Woodland View, before the Fisho there on Wednesday, the MMT at Viaduct on...

Maesknoll Match Angling: Float Only League, Penultimate Round, Sedges, Sunday 2nd August 2015
http://maesknollmatchangling.blogspot.com/2015/08/float-only-league-penultimate-round.html
Monday, 3 August 2015. Float Only League, Penultimate Round, Sedges, Sunday 2nd August 2015. Reading the blogs and hearing the tales from Thursdays practise match, I decided to just take pellets and paste to this match, not sure if limiting my options like that was a good idea, but I don't think anything but a friendly trawler going round the lake for me would have given me a chance of winning it. Mike Walker 187-04-0 peg 11. Nick Chedzoy 146-11-0 peg 10. Gary O’Shea 133-01-0 peg 31. How End / Garbolino.

I hope to post updates of my angling exploits, give hints and tips on venues and methods I fish, and maybe tell a few old stories. Sunday, 28 September 2014. Commercial House Round 2 Bristol Avon Barton Farm and Staverton. The second round of this popular league with 12 teams of 6 anglers, well some teams struggle to get 6 for various reasons. Such as one team today which could not raise Martin Rayet for love nor money from where ever he was sleeping, seriously hope he was OK. It was a day of so near yet...

I hope to post updates of my angling exploits, give hints and tips on venues and methods I fish, and maybe tell a few old stories. Wednesday, 30 July 2014. The Last Tony Rixon Wednesday Open - Sedges Brick Lake. Glenn was doing well he was catching a lot of skimmers and had a few carp. I continued to catch carp but it was a long wait in between bites but as nobody had really been bagging I thought I was doing OK. However, Tom Magnall over on peg 9 had go the pellet wag to work and was now flying. It was ...
