Keith continues his run of good form, landing the winning catch from peg 9, carp on the pole with maggot hook baits. Nathan has fished similar tactics from peg 16 and despite losing several came in second on the night.
Martin’s 3rd placed catch was taken on peg 6 , on a top kit with caster hook bait.
The fishing remains quite tricky, although the silver fish are beginning to show, after spawning.

MATCH REPORT
  Highhampton Lakes was this months venue, very warm day and carp beginning to think about spawning so very moody and playing hard to catch at times… well done today to everyone very good turn out for the group today.. more actual fish were caught today but few anglers did decided to tip back rather than weight so sheet shows alot of D.N.W. does give people more points in the long run amd push people up the final league table by doing so, would be nice to see everyone weight out on further matches please even if it’s just ounces as could give u position points.
