Landsend foul hooking festival

Back down to Somerset to my favourite fishery and the tital of the blog say`s it all. Ill keep it short. I drew the carpark end of the lake....AGAIN!!!, peg 1. Cant get away from this end. Need somebody to send me a photo of the top end as Ive forgotten what it looks like. Steve Seager was opposite on 24 and Rich Heatley next door on 3. My plan was for a meat line short. Tried it 3 times and hooked and lost a carp first drop in each time then nothing else. A rig for the next pallet. that produced not a single bite. And a rig for against the end bank and the point of the island where the majority of the match was spent. I was firing pellets across and the carp were straight on it every time, but I was plagued by foul hookers and lost nearly everything I hooked, I was up in the mid thirties in lost carp by the end and only landed about a dozen. Torrettes was at an all time high today. got to say I didnt enjoy it much as it was so frustrating. by the end I was glad it was over. The match was won by Stuart holmes who was one of 4 guys that stopped off for the day on their way from Oldham to Viaduct, with 126-3 from peg 17. second was Steve "I`m Struggling to get bites" seager with 105-10 catght from the end bank and a few down to pallet 23. Third was another of the lost northerners, Paddy Curry on peg 15 with 103-2. Rich Heatley was top silvers with 14-4, mainley good skimmers and F1`s taken on meat. I managed to come nowhere with 57-0.  Full results below.
