It was a misty day. I draw peg 20 for the day which put me in the 3rd zone for the day as well. Always difficult to compete with the end pegs on any particular day. So in my zone good anglers. Raymond Cloete, JD Steyn, Pieter Walker, Kobus Du Preez.
So from the start the distances was important. A lot of small fish under 150grams. I clipped on 70m with my 10ft Slingshot with the hope that I can fish through the small fish and land a weighed fish every know and then. But it seems nit the case. The 13ft slingshot in 125m doesn't produce any results. So I decided to take a 'BOER TRACE" with a P5 and a lot of worms and cast as far as possible. Well a small barbell - at least above 150grams. I did it again and another barbell - about 1kg. So I decided it will be the game plan for the day. Fish the small fish on 70M and fish at the back for barbells. I caught 3 barbells and 4 carps that were weighted fish. I also caught 15 non-weighed fish.
Well it was a tough day but I ended up 4th in the zone. The end peg won the zone which is normally the case. With a BMT of 66,66% I was happy and know that I can through this one away going forward.
Thanks again to my sponsor Pure Fishing for the reliable equipment. It is just awesome equipment and the best on the market.
