MATCH FISHING AT THE POND

Very hard to say really mate, ability, method fished, swim, weather, all play their part. A normal day on Brierley can produce anything from just a couple of pounds to 50lb+

Ok no problem mate, Im not to bad at bagging in some decent fish Could give a few adults run for there money ;D

Thanks Craig

it is impossible to say ive fished matches where wieghts have been expected to be 150lb + but won with 35lb another match ive fished wieghts were expected to be about 80lb and lake record was only 97lb but 3 of us topped the 120lb with me at top with 167lb.
the best thing is not to fish to win the match but fish to get the best wieght possible from the peg you have drawn concentrate on doing that first then your on your way to winning the matches i cant stress enough that its practice in a variety of methods that will win you matches in the end

Man, I would love to see you fish!!! When is the next match I so want to watch you!

i grew up on the drains round the fens fishing a whip to hand it was not unusual to get 100 roach in an hour i have fished against some of the top anglers in opens on quite a few occasions when i was younger
