Coking Farm Long Lake Doubles Match

posted on 9 July 2012 | posted in Articles / News


Hi All

A quick report for this weekend just gone

as a few of you know that myself and Simon was fishing the pairs match at Coking Farm Long Lake Clap

Early start with Paul picking us up at 5.45am as Paul and Andy was fishing woodlands lake while the match was going on going for the Cats

not the best of starts as Si's Alarm didnt go of Shocked , so we left and Si maded this own way to the lakes

arrived at 7.30 am , a quick look around the lakes as this was the 1st time we have been to the lakes , then back to the fishing hut for the draw , we ended up with peg 3 which was my 3rd choice so not bad Wink

As I walked out the hut si pulled in the car park so that made me feel a bit better

Andy helped Quickly with the bivvy as it was raining very hard then in the rain set up and all ready for 10am start

So it was a Tricky start as trying to work out the lake , rigs , locations , bait ect but still managed to catch a few

8 hrs into the match lots of others was catching plenty around the lake but we was just about working out the bait , locations and rigs to catch them

Then every few hours we managed to catch a few , went in stages 2 or 3 very quick bites

In the Night It really rained very hard , Not the best of fishing condition's in anyone's book but kept working at it

Here a Photo of the 13lb 10 oz ghosty

I am not going to say to much about the rigs , Bait , Loctions as we are in the final in 3 weeks and hoping it will still do the job for us Big smile

All I can say is that myself and Si worked our socks of for this match and it paid of and could of ended up with a much bigger weight if we fished the lakes before and found out what we know now plus we lost a lot of fish

But very happy with the result
