The glebe golden reel qualifier

Well set off at 530 am for this one linked up with the bait tech bagger tom downing on the m5 eventually!!
Weather looked nice sunshine bits of cloud and slight breeze. Got to the fishery and first job is dip the nets and once dipped you get a lil ticket to say you have dipped you cannot draw without doing what a great idea !!!
Lots of chat and dreaming of a flyer nice end peg would do. Top anglers there again local Preston master Andy power Jamie Hughes perry stone and many more!!!
Into the draw and I've pulled out 102 lake 7 fishery owner Roy marlow said it's a safe peg always a few there!!!
 Got to the peg pretty much middle of the lake and yes that is a carp cruising. But he soon buggered off !!!so feeder to far bank and a bomb set up just in case. Pole line at 14.5 m in front with pellet on the deck and shallow. Had 2 edge lines one either side and a caster line at top 5. Felt quite crammed in had anglers either side and Andy power 2 pegs to the right !!! At the all in chucked the feeder out and then fed my pole lines which   you are allowed to do here strange 🤔!!  But oh well crack on few chucks of the feeder and it's gone round only to wind in a bream around a pound (not what I was after) anyway back out and it went again better bream getting on for 3 pound but still not what I wanted when the pegs either side have a had a carp each. Gone out again and another good bream around 3 pound.then it went quite so went out on the long pole  float buried gently back and a small carp 2 pound straight back out and another one then another come on I thought but as quick as it started it died just getting liners. So went shallow had another 3 fish then that died. So I kept pinging pellets long and fishing it there is a no slapping rule here also!!from the off I was feeding caster at top 5 by hand pretty constantly so thought I'd have a look on that started on the bottom but one bite saw me catch the smallest perch ever 😭😪so went shallow no indications so went down right hand edge on the paste had 1 straight away thought hopefully we can have a few here !!!! Went down the left had one there all small fish tho none over 4 pound!!then no more indications down the edge.. so rest of the match went scratching around picking out odd fish of the lines. Think I've tried too much should of stayed on long pole as Andy power looked to be doing well on it. At the all out was quite glad it was over but struggled and I got battered by either side of me bloke to the left had 60 pound bloke to my right had 80 pound Andy p had 119 pound but the best weights were off the end pegs either end!!! So had a lil chat with mr power quizzing him a bit!! Tipped my nets back estimated 30 odd pound know where near enough. But I've had a nice day learning a bit for next time and getting about a bit worst part of the day giving tom downing a pound 😂 and driving home. Back to some more local matches hopefully get the confidence back up may do some more qualifiers but may just leave them for this year we shall see!!!!
Thanks for reading hope everyone had a good one 😃🐟🐟🐟🎣🎣🎣🎣
