This Weekend we had the first round of our teams of 4 Canal league. #9 Teams

The first round was pencilled in for Charlton but unfortunately the floating algae would have made this impossible.
So the decision was made to move the match closer to town starting from the Obridge down to just past the recycling centre Bridge. 

The top sections can be quite hard going when the water is clear and the water was clear 🥲 but the floating scum was much better.

The weather felt much Colder this morning with a smattering of rain.
The wind has changed to a better direction this weekend it’s was going with the flow of the water.

The Fishing however was extremely difficult in the top three sections. For the most part it was only ounces being caught from the middle of the sections 😳 but let’s not dwell on that some had a lovely day.

It is a Team event but I’ll give you a rundown of the top 4 and the mini section winners.

Top Spot on the day was Chris Parr with a cracking net of Tench and Perch for this end of the Canal. With 20lbs 3oz and the win

In Second place Tony Goodland also had Tench and Perch for 7lbs 8oz

In 3rd Dean Stacey with 5lbs 1oz of Perch & Tench

In 4th Andy Ankers with 3lbs 7oz

The weight sheet below show the Section Winners in Blue.
In the main frame light brown.

Next weekend, (Sunday) we are on the Bridgwater End. Again we will be meeting at the boat Centre for the draw.

The Teams table is also attached.
Top 3 on the Day
Colmic Somerset 27 points
4 Skins 25 points
Bridgwater and Chard in joint 3rd with 24 points

Any chance of c section please?

Well done, Chris Parr and the teams

great result Chris Parr 🙏

🦠The Match sections have changed 🦠.

It’s still on the canal but it’s changed to the town sections due to floating algae at Charlton it would’ve made it impossible to fish.

The drawer is still at the boat centre at 8.15
Breakfast from 7.30am

We will then make our way to the sections at Telecom and Nerrols.

He will turn up not like some

Guessing it's guna be 10.3/11.00 start?

By the time Mark Affleck has ground baited 11kg of worm, 32 pints of maggot and 11 wheelbarrows of crumb, all that would be pushed down to the swans neck 🤷‍♂️🤷‍♂️
