Sedges rnd 4 brick lake

Well what can I say went out last night for food ended up not eating and drinking too much oh dear !!!
I was woken up with a phone call at 855 am by Wayne staples saying where are u ?? Bed I replied I said draw for me and I will pay when I get there so I then rushed around like a bear with sore head sorted myself out Mrs made me a peice of toast and a cuppa and off I went I had a tx from ron stark saying peg 10 πŸ€”πŸ€” carp peg really but I felt confident for some reason god knows why πŸ˜‚ anyway arrived at the fishery and ran over Jon fuidges pole roller but luckily it survived bit of banter and rocked up to my peg sun was out no wind in this corner and a banging headache!!! Set up the usual gb feeder and one pole rig to fish 2 spots at 14.5 m I was just 10mins late starting the match I fed my pole lines and chucked the tip out slurping my disgusting flask of tea wich tasted like washing up liquid 🀒🀒 3rd cast and rods flown round carp about 10 pound got bullied to the netπŸ™ˆπŸ˜‘ rob dod on my right had a nice run of 3 skimmers and got me twitching a bit so went on my pole had one skimmer then nothing for about 2 hours I felt like death and my mouth was like Gandhi’s flip flop so went for a wander to see if anyone had any mints or anything but no such luck not a great deal was being caught either word was Jon fuidge was having a load on tile and Nigel Garret and Bob Gullick were having a few on brick but was slow for most after my lil walk I got back to my peg and added 3 more small skimmers to my net and then struggled again except from bites from large carp of which I landed 3 and lost one !!!!😑 come the last half hour I was struggling to keep my eyes open but I got threw it and thank fully the horn sounded. Another tough day great just hoped I’d beat a few pals for a nugget or 2 but that wasn’t to be either. Only bonus was not having to give one to Shane Pope who weighed in the same as me with massive 2.8lb last in my section. Another day over last one next week 🀞🀞 to draw on a load but I’m not holding my breath I’ve had a shocking series this year and hopefully I can forget it and move on. Earlier in the week due to weather and stuff I managed to sneak a couple of sessions down locking pit the first one I sussed it out ended with around 20 skimmers for about 10 pound was nice to see the float go under but on the second visit had a much better time landing 70 fish up to a pound for an estimated 35-40 pound mostly skimmers with a few roach and one small carp. So that’s it I’m off to bed now I won’t be getting hammered and fishing again the 2 don’t mix well πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚ thanks for reading no photos was Hard enough trying to fish πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚ hope everyone had a great weekend. πŸ‘πŸ‘πŸ‘
