Shanghai AC match - Barston Lakes

A bit short on numbers for this match and it ended up being quite a close. Everyone caught but the carp didn't show so the main weights were made up from bream. Breesy even managed a few small Barbel.

We had some of the most torrential rain I have ever experience during fishing, maybe that put the fish off as usually the bigger carp show for the last hour and that's prime method feeder territory. I caught steadily from the off on both fake maggot and red pop-up boilie but knew from Rich who was fishing next to me I was always on the catch-up. Half hour before the match I fished the Blythe behind my swim but only had a few knocks to show for it.
