Last Sunday was the 4th round of the Somerset teams of four. I was back at Dunwear while Lee, Dan and young Harrison Dunster were on the KSD (Parchey up, Bradney down and Bradney up).

Again I wanted Coombes or Marshes to get amongst the better weights, potentially 🀞.
I was drawn Lookout, not too displeased as it is decent if the tench and eels don't feed on other pegs. But there's no awful pegs and it's about figuring out what to do as there's many many options in most of the pegs.

I set up 3 rigs, two DT Floats Nevis patterns for anything that comes along in two different depths at 14m. The third remained unused was a Carbon Slim by DT Floats, this was for big baits and big fish.
Bait was the usual maggots, caster, worm and some corn. Groundbait was Bait-Tech Pro Natural Sweet Fishmeal with a bit of Bait-Tech The Juice ground. Only 3.5kg mixed up this week.

The match began very slowly with not much seemingly getting caught, though Gappy on Phipps's caught some smaller fish from the start, Kev Rawles on Riviera hooked, played and lost a decent carp plus he had a few bits. Those two were not in my section but we're in my eyeline.

It took me a while to catch, but a few roach, pommies and baby skimmers were being added to the keepnet. Russell Hilton called me to see how things were going, and he says in the same situation as myself and my neighbour Dickie Bull (on Helicopter).
So I plodded away putting a few smaller silvers in the keepnet, but I did pick up 8 or so better stamp skimmers around the 12oz - 1lb mark throughout the second half of the match. I did bump a couple decent fish, probably better skimmers but doesn't everyone?

At the all-out I reckoned on 3-4kg (6-8lb). Gappy had a tench, Kev lost another better fish and Dickie struggled.
I went and saw Russ, he admitted to a big bream and 4kg in total.
So the weigh-in. Les Braunton and Neil Purchase were on duty, Les said he had 4kg, Neil had 6 fish from Magic Tree and Slopey respectively.
Russ weighed in first with 5kg dead, Dickie had 1.75kg, I then had 25g more than Russ. Neil's 6 fish won the section as they averaged a kilo each. Les had 4.050kg.
So second in section for me. Happy enough.
The other section was won by Smiler on the same peg as last round, Coombes, with 9kg. Monkey was on Marshes and had 6.6kg. They were 2nd and 3rd in the whole match, which was won by the lovely Mark Vigar with 10kg.

On the day, our team did pants but somehow never finished last with a meagre 8 points. Somerset Angling won the day with 19 points from a maximum of 20. Well done πŸŽ£πŸ‘.

The last two rounds are on the KSD, then Chard Reservoir.

---------------------------------------------------

Since then I have had a pleasure session on Slopey at Dunwear after work on Tuesday. I caught 3 tench just to annoy Mrs W., a couple quality skimmers and some perch/rudd/roach. Only fished worm and corn on the hook over 6mm pellets.

Wednesday I fished the Sedges open, 30 fished so all of Brick and 31-40 on Tile were in.
I wanted to fish for silvers and middle of the lake on Brick was hoped for. Never near it, peg 20. Can be great, but not often enough.
A couple rigs for carp and a silvers rig for 14m in front.
I had one 12/13lb carp and around 18lb of silvers, so chucked back as did my neighbour on 19, he had two bites all day from 2 baby skimmers.
The match was won with 170lb or so from peg 17 fishing the pva bag over heavy feed 🫀. Then a couple decent weights from Tile.
Matt Rowe won the silvers with 34lb from peg 13 (I think) ahead of Alex Kerr on peg 16 (29lb) and Ron Stark (21lb, peg 14).

Yesterday I fished Bridgwater Docks, waggler and 6&8mm pellets only. Fished two hours and had a tench and a few silvers πŸŽ£πŸ‘.
Today I took a look at going on the KSD, it looked crap tbh, a few eels dead floating in the edges and not a fish plipping on the surface. So back to the docks for 3hrs
I had a couple tench, a bream and a bite a chuck from roach, rudd, pommies and little skimmers. Maggot at first (til I got bored) over Bait-Tech Pro Natural River Extra. I opened some corn after an hour or so and caught the tincas and some better skimmer etc. I fished a 6m whip. Enjoyed it despite the odd shower 😎. Finished with around 30lb.

----------------------------------------------------

Not sure where I am fishing this weekend, looking at the weather it won't be tomorrow, Sunday and Monday look ok.

Well an enjoyable weekend at the lovely Chard Reservoir for the Milo Fishing-IT & Van Den Eynde UK sponsored Chard AA Festival. 35 fishing 🎣🎣

Saturday:
I drew what is a good draw, most of the time 😎 Peg 30, I've never been near that area in the 9 months or so that I've fished it occasionally. Peg 31 is the end peg and went to superstar Ads Palmer Angling. I also had Alan Gage, Andrew Winter, Paul Purchase and Steve Kedge in a very tough section.

I mixed up 5kg or groundbait, 3kg of Bait-Tech Envy and 2kg of Bait-Tech Pro Natural Sweet Fishmeal 😍. It was a bream/skimmer day as 60lb would likely be close to winning the section. Two feeder lines, one at 36m another at 22m.
I soaked some micros for a method/pellet/hybrid feeder, had some worms, corn and maggot for the hook.
I did set up a whip, but it never really got touched.

The match started quickly for Ads, he was into decent skimmers & bream to 6lb from the start. Paul P had 3 nice skimmers on the whip.
I had a short wait for my first, a 3lb bream and a 1lb skimmer.

The match progressed and Ads kept putting fish in the net and borrowed one of mine in short order.
I was picking the odd skimmer off my longer 36m line. The 22m was less good. However I did lose a couple decent fish off that later on.
But the 4 of us aside from Adam just plodded along, but a late run from Paul and Andrew pushed them well ahead of me and Alan.

The match ended with Adam admitting to well over 100lb. I had 34lb on my skimmer clicker and a few roach etc in the second net.
I weighed 38lb 🫀, Adam 121lb πŸ‘πŸ‘, Alan 30lb, Andrew (Chilli) 44lb I think and 54-something to Paul, Kedgey had 40-odd from peg 26.

Adam won the day, Paul was 3rd (2nd in section).

The day didn't go all Ads way as his trolley broke on the way back to the car park. So my good deed was done in helping the man sort it out.

The res as a whole fished below average with patchy areas where whip fish were the target and won a couple sections.

The evening was spent with Dan Minchington in 'Spoons having a few (too many?) drinks which was enjoyable.
Luckily our B&B was only 50yrds along the road. Ideal.

----------------------------------------------------

Day Two.

I drew peg 13, another new area for me. As I was in with no chance of a framing place, and unlikely to do owt in the section as the pegs to my left were fancied to be better, I based my day around the pole, hoping to find 7ft, which I did at 13m. Floats were the DT Floats Nevis pattern, 0.8g for long and 0.4g for closer.
5kg of groundbait again was mixed, this time some Bait-Tech Pro Natural Fine was added and less Envy used. Pro Natural Sweet Fishmeal was the base.
Same hookbaits plus some caster for a short line in 4ft.
A solitary feeder rod was assembled at 25m.

Well I fed the pole lines and began on the feeder.
It was pants, in fact I had 3 roach and 2 skimmers on this all day, but I didn't fish it too much πŸ˜’.
The 13m line wasn't great or the shorter 8m line. Just a few roach from each. Very slow, as it was to Chilli on my left (I couldn't see anyone), I also had Steve Maynard, Ads Palmer, Paul Purchase and someone else (forget who, sorry) in my section and Kedgey on my right but not in our section.

After 3.5hrs I decided to plumb up at topkit and see what I could catch as I was seeing the odd pike. I hooked 3 during the match.

Well I spent a couple hours on this towards the end of the match and had a nice hour catching roach and perch in 2.5ft of water, feeding caster and some h**p I found in my bag.

The odd look on the feeder was pointless and I shouldn't have wasted my time πŸ™„.

The weigh in came and went. Kedgey had 50lb of assorted fish at 9m, Chilli had 14lb, Ads had 25lb, Steve Maynard 28lb and Paul had 38lb+ I think. The other weight was low 20lb I think (I will post weights when I see them). I had a smidge under 20lb.

We then went to the pub, The Country Inn. Very nice it is, we had a food spread and the presentation. Lovely and appreciated.

The winner of the festival was Paul Purchase ahead of Steve Maynard, Nigel Garrett & Chris Parr. I think the top 4 were tied on 3 points. Very close.

I had the best part of 60lb over two days, so some nice fishing really.

A big thanks to Andrew Winter for organising, and deadly duo of Andy Neal & James Alexander Thomas from Milo & VDE for sponsorship. ❀️❀️.

Next up I have the 4th round of the Somerset teams of four. and I am at Dunwear again. A nice draw please 😁.

Time to catch up a little.

Myself and Mrs W. had a couple times out in her mission to catch a tench from Dunwear. I am continuing to report she has yet to see success on her part.
In the meantime I have had at least 4, maybe 5 😬.

I also managed a day with Mr Paul Wharton, he bagged a few skimmers on that trip (and a couple tench on a previous one) while I tried to catch a carp on the pole over there, and the mission was achieved.

------------------------------------------------

Anyway on to matches.
The Somerset Teams of 4 was on the 2nd of August, 30 on the KSD and 10 over Dunwear. We were a man down on the day, so an uphill struggle in this league became steeper, but 3 section wins would alleviate this πŸ˜πŸ™„.

I was on Dunwear and had my preferred pegs in mind, Coombs and Marshes clear favourites then Lookout.
Well I was drawn on Phipps, the narrowest peg on the complex and not fished much, I didn't fancy it.
My section was Pylon (Paul Purchase) which was gonna provide a shed load of big fish or a boat load of naff all.
Coombs & Marshes went to Les Braunton (marshes) and Vince Stuckey (coombes), myself in Phipps and one of Colmic's finest Russell Hilton on my left in Riviera. So not coming last in the 5 pegs was my aim. I'd definitely need a few 2lb+ bream and/or a tench or 2.

I made up 4 rigs, all on DT Floats, 2x Nevis Patterns for out in front of me for silvers and a couple DT Carbon Slims for my 'edges' each side where I hoped a bonus or two would happen along.
Oh and a token gesture of a feeder to the reedy Island in front, only set up this as I was ready with an hour to spare, it had 5 mins in the water when I had a drink.

Bait was corn, maggots, a few caster and some worm. A little micro made it's way on to the side tray, it wasn't touched
Groundbait was 5kg in total. A mix of Bait-Tech Pro Natural Sweet Fishmeal and Bait-Tech Special G in green.

Well after my routine of feeding the various spots in my peg I set about trying to catch the 10kg that I thought would win the lake, though it could be higher if big fish feed in numbers.
Well a slow start for me, after half hour it was Russ who had got off to a steady run of fish on his short line. I had one little pommie.
But I was trying to be patient, and eventually I was putting fish in the net, nothing of decent quality ie tench/eels/bream but roach, pommies, skimmers between 2oz and 1lb with a good few 6oz samples were keeping me busy. I did bump a decent fish and had an eel let go, but this happens to us all.

Come the all-out I thought I'd have 13lb or so, I was sure Russ had more despite him losing a couple late eels, but he did have a couple 1.5lb skimmers. But I could see that the angler Coombs had caught well and I'd had a text saying Les had caught a carp, a nice bream and a big eel from Marshes.
Paul, in Pylon had a terrible day.

Paul arrived with the scales, along with his helper that was Paul Squires.
A couple 8kg weights & Paul's 500g-ish were on the board, I weighed 7.725kg which I was ok with, but I was sure I should have had 8kg+ from how the day went, it was the quiet start and a half hour fishless period around 1pm.
Russ weighed in 6.5kg, and we got where we thought we'd be in the section.
The other section was won with 7kg+ to Dickie Bull from Magic Tree. Made up of two tench, 3 or 4 decent skimmers and eels. A couple 6kg+ backed that up. I was 3rd across the lake as well as 3rd in section.

The KSD was won with 33kg from Redtrack with 9kg to Kedgey from near the winner.

As a team, Dan beat one in section and Lee struggled. We got a measly 6pts on the day and fell further down the table.

Somerset teams of four. has the full results and photos.

------------------------------------------------

Yesterday was a Taunton club match on the West Sedgemoor Drain (Stathe), 19 fished.
It was the first time I'd wet a line on it in probably 25yrs, and back then it was for carp. A little further back was when I fished it for silvers 😬.

Any hoot, I drew peg 18, so a nice trek up the field.
Meant nowt to me. I set up a couple whips using whip wags, I am not happy with my rigs tbh, a big fish rig (DT Carbon Slim) and a solitary light silvers rig using a DT Nevis for down the middle. I couldn't be arsed with any h**p rigs or a rig for further across.
Bait was worm, caster (this bait has been dire over the last year), maggot, pinkie and some corn. Groundbait was Bait-Tech Pro Natural Dark with a smidge of Bait-Tech Special G Natural colour added with better stamp fish in mind.

For company I had Mark Saunders on my left and he had Mark Vigar on his left. On my right I had a newbie to matches in a chap called Chris Davies. He was in a deck chair, a waggler rod, some groundbait and maggots. I was honestly jealous of such a simple approach ❀️. We carry far too much now 🫀.

I won't go into much detail except I wasn't going to be a windmill all day and try and catch 500+ fish for 10lb. That's not my thing, I am not good enough, rather up to speed on that thing.
I started off for some bites after feeding two areas of my peg. A few very little rudd, pommies and odd 1oz roach found themselves in my keepnet.
After 45 mins I had a look on my line where I hoped for tench or bream (or a carp, I saw one pass my feet just after the start). Well two mins of waiting paid off with a near 5lb tench and this was quickly followed by a 12oz perch.

I decided then to confirm my lack of unwillingness in micro fish fishing to just mostly wait it out for a bonus.
Well that never happened, I lost a decent eel which just let go, got bitten off by a couple pike and bumped a couple 3oz perch.
Meanwhile the two Marks on my left hand been getting some stamp roach, Mr Saunders fishing and catching well during the last two hours on h**p, not sure what Mark Vigar was doing up on the end peg, but he did well.

I weighed 9lb 12oz which was alright on the day, 7th I think. I did figure some things to do & not to do next time. Like perhaps open my h**p and don't be so lazy πŸ™„πŸ˜.

The match was won by Martin Chiffers with two lumpy bonuses for 14lb. Well done matey πŸŽ£πŸŽ£πŸ‘.

Results in pics.

-------------------------------------------------
Next up, other than a couple pleasure afternoon sessions, is the Milo Two-Day even at Chard Reservoir, where I hope to avoid embarrassment. I'll just fish my matches for enjoyment methinks. Especially as I only have about 8 matches left this year in my calendar, unless I hop on the Garbolino Festival at White Acres this November, I am glad that number is so low, I am enjoying the days out with Mrs Williams and Paul Wharton, chill, social, have a laugh and fish as and when.

Until next time, have fun 😘😁

Catch up from the last couple of weeks.

Last Saturday (18th) Mrs W. and I ventured to Dunwear for a few hours, we both managed near 20lb each. My fish were mostly roach and pommies, only 4 sensible skimmers. 76 fish in total. Mrs W. had 54 fish, most of her weight was made up of skimmers between 12oz & 1.5lb. Her Dunwear tench mission continues 🎣😁.

Last Sunday was the second round of the Somerset Teams of 4.
Draw was:
Monkey - P1 at Redtrack πŸ‘
Me - p17 at Parchey up 🫀
Lee Holliday - p24 Bradney up 🀷
Nick Collier - p36 Bradney down πŸ‘

Well it was a hot day, but windy at times down the middle. A few paddle boarders kicking around.
My section was tough going and I bundled together 2.5kg or so for 3 points, beaten by the two pegs downstream to my right with 3.5kg to Chris Parr winning the section.
I fed Bait-Tech Pro Natural River Extra with a bit of Bait-Tech Envy and Pro Natural Fine Dark. Maggot and h**p were the basis of my feed. I caught both on the waggler across and pole down the middle, short was a waste of time.
The match was won by Gappy with 14kg+ or bream.

Our team's best points came from Nick's section second. Us three scraped together another 11 points.

--------------------------------------------------------

Yesterday was a club match on Chard Reservoir.
I planned on fishing the feeder all day and only decided to chuck my 8m whip in at the last minute.

I drew peg 4 on the dam 😬😞.
Ads Palmer & Alex Murray to my right on 2&1. Steve Maynard well down to my left on 9.
So a traditional feeder was assembled as was a method plus bait up rod.

5kg of groundbait mixed up, Bait-Tech Envy and Bait-Tech Pro Natural Sweet Fishmeal in a 80/20 percent mix.
Corn, worms and dead maggots were the feed options, only bringing just under half a pint of live maggots.

Well I spent half hour putting my feed out at 32m then sat for another 90 minutes or more without a bite.
With boredom kicking in I got a 3.5m whip rig out plus the top 4 of my system whip and set about getting some bites.
The occasional, pointless, look on the feeder was done just to see if by hook or crook a bream or two had shown up. Never did.

So 3.5ft of water produced 6.5kg of mostly roach, nothing over 4oz. I should have really got another rig and a couple more sections out
Ads won the section with 8.8kg. if I'd not wasted a couple hours on the tip or been stubborn I think that was possible.

The match was won with 99lb to that man Gappy again, on end peg 31. Paul Purchase had a circa 30lb leather carp which counted as 4lb in his 75lb or so catch for 2nd. He was next to the winner.

Well done to all.

Next up for me is a couple pleasure sessions before round three on the Team of 4.

Will try and make this short.

A couple weeks back myself, Dan Minchington and young Harrison Dunster had a few hours on the KSD just to have a look before the Teams of 4 which is primarily the main venue for this season's league.
We all caught a few and enjoyed it.

Then on the 4th I went to Dunwear for a few hours and had double figures of assorted silvers and 3 decent tench. I caught a nice bit of sun, this was lovely 😍.

---------------------------------------------

The 5th saw the first round of said TO4.
I was at Bradney up, behind the EA building.
Dan was end peg at Bradney up.
Lee Holliday was end peg at Parchey up.
Nick Collier was at Red Track.

I was set up quick, feeder (nothing caught) and 3x DT Floats Nevis across a few areas of the peg. Groundbait was Bait-Tech Pro Natural River with a bit of Bait-Tech Envy. Maggot and worms were best for hook bait.
It was hard and I didn't have any bonus fish in my 950g. This was worth 4 points, only beating Jason King's 500g. 100g behind Andrew Winter on my right, he lost a big tench, he swore, naughty man 😬😁.
Shane Robinson was 2nd in section with a couple bream, but was pipped by Paul Purchase's bream and perch mix.
The match was won by Ian Burtonwith a few bream for circa 7kg, and he left early to go on holibobs. He was next to Dan at Bradney up.
As a team we came 8th, Nick lost a couple bream late (lots of big fish lost by the anglers up Red Track). Dan struggled to 1pt and like Nick, Lee had 3pts. Not the best of rounds for us.

-----------------------------------------------

This last weekend was meant to see Mrs W and myself fishing a club match at Plantation, but the weather saw the fishery cancel the match.
Instead we both went over to Dunwear for a few hours.
We enjoyed it, well Mrs W didn't like the two eels she caught.
I ended up with mostly skimmers in a 21lb catch, lovely fishing without it being hectic in the warm sunshine and cooling breeze.

This week I might pop up to the KSD for a few hours, then Saturday Mrs W and I are fishing somewhere and Sunday is the second round of the teams of 4. Me, Lee H, Monkey and Nick are the team as it stands.

Might as well do this now rather than tomorrow as I'm on earlies at work.

Fished Shiplate in a club match today, on the Main Lake.
We were not too sure how it would fish, pessimistic I'd say the general consensus was before the start.
Paying top 2 and two in the silvers pool.

No silvers kit for me today, so it would be carp or bust, mistake.
Bait was Bait-Tech Special G Meaty Margin Mix for my short meat line and edges, again using meat on the hook.
I did half half a pint of old manky maggots but they were getting ragged by baby fish.
But otherwise it was 6mm and 8mm pellets for up and down at 16m and 8mm meat. Some micros were dampened and then coated in Bait-Tech Special G Green liquid for chucking a method feeder around the peg.

Floats were a DT Floats Margin Diamond for the edges, a couple DT Pingers for shallow and two DT Carbon Slims in 0.3g for pellets on the deck long and meat short.
Hooks were Matrix Mxc3s and Mxc2s, sizes 12 and 14 😬 to 0.16 and 0.18 hooklengths.

I drew peg 13, golden peg on the day πŸ™„, a peg I have done well from on a few occasions, but 14 and 15 looked solid with fish, and with Scott Shaw on 15, James Parkhouse on 14, they'd be tough to beat.

Anyway the match began and for the first 3hrs or more I was struggling, I was kind of regretting not bringing silvers stuff as I was getting a good few skimmers from 3oz to 1lb, quite a few were falling off with my rather heavy set-up. We didn't expect the silvers to be so good, lots of young fish which are likely last year's spawning results.

Elsewhere Steve Lanerz Lane over on peg 4 was getting the odd carp on the tip, but Jamie on my left and Scott up on 15 were bagging and looked miles ahead when we got to two hours to go.
At this point Scott was on 5 or 7 nets, Jamie not far behind, I was on 3 or 4 carp caught shallow for 40lb-ish.

I had lost interest a good while previous, and Jamie had taken a couple nets off me, I was thinking of chucking back then, but I didn't and actually had a good last 90 mins with the margins coming good and a couple fish on the feeder.
In fact the last 10 mins saw me net 5 lumps for near 60lb.
Everyone seemed to be getting a few.

Luckily (in a way) the all out was called, I had no nets left anyway and I'd clicked 146lb on my carp nets (on a loose 50lb limit today) and probably had 15lb of accidental silvers.

I packed away and actually tipped my fish back when James Withers came along with the scales as I'd help weigh in the obvious top 2.

First was Scott, his many nets weighed 268lb 3oz. All caught on paste at 11m, he also chucked 10-15lb of silvers back as he needed the keepnet. He won on the day πŸ₯‡. Well done πŸ‘.
Next was Mr Parkhouse, his many nets totalled 242lb 14oz, mostly caught on the method to the island initially then short in the second half of the match. He was 2nd πŸ₯ˆ.
Laner weighed in over on p4, 131lb 8oz.

Silvers went to Chris Higgs on peg 1, 25lb was his total ahead of Hubert Evans and his 20lb 5oz. Just 2oz ahead of Mark Chilcott. They were pegs 11 & 12 respectively.

So, it was an enjoyable day in the end, but I struggled to be motivated really, and my stubborn idea of not even considering silvers definitely cost me an envelope as 20lb would have been easy enough especially as around 10lb fell off.
I was never getting 200lb of carp let alone 240lb+.

Off to the King Sedgemoor Drain next Sunday. That fished hard today with just 6kg winning and that included a tench and a bream.

Rapid write up of the last couple weeks 🏎️🏎️🎣🎣.

The 7th saw me and Dan Minchington fish the CRT Pairs qualifier on the B&T Canal.
We had big fish in mind, because we're not as good as many on the venue for small fish and to get through 7pts might be enough.

Well it was rather hard going and we limped home with something like 17pts only beating 3 or 4 pairs at best.
I had 100+ fish for 2lb 10oz. Dan had a similar weight of slightly better fish πŸ™„πŸ«€.
I used Bait-Tech Pro Natural Fine as groundbait with the usual maggots, caster and worm on the hook.
DT Floats Nevis Patterns for down the track in the awkward wind, a DT Floats Pinger for across against the far bank.

Top pairs & qualifiers were Richard Chave & Lee Trivett (4pts, 2x 2nds), then Stu Cutter & Paul Waddington (7pts) on weight, then James Fern & Rich Willis (7pts) followed Dan Baldwin & Russell Hilton (7pts).

Well done all 🎣

This last Sunday it was a match at Chard Res, I drew 24 and expected it to be alright, but it wasn't for most of the reservoir to be fair. I set up a feeder and a couple DT Nevis in 2g and 0.8g for pole rigs.
Groundbait choice was Bait-Tech Envy and Bait-Tech Special G Gold, mixed 4kg in total and used it all πŸ˜€.
I had 3 skimmers/bream late on, on the feeder at 40m, and a bunch of roach & perch on the pole at 13m.
I chucked back 13lb or so, which was bang average for the section. My section was won by Alex Murray with 20lb, everyone else had between 11lb and 17lb.
Young Riley on the peg to my left fished a tidy match for the silvers on the pole, 14lb+ was his total, well done. Great company also πŸ™‚ πŸ‘.

The match was won with 53lb, followed by a 50lb and a 42lb.

No idea where my next match is before the Teams of 4 on the 'Spill.
I might have a few hours on there this week after work for a recce.

Take a look at DT Floats, www.dt-floats.co.uk there's many great patterns to choose from πŸ‘
