I had a fantastic day on the Leamington AA match held at Snitterfield Resy on Saturday. I really love this venue as it\u2019s full of quality silvers and you never know what the next fish will be. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

I drew peg 19 and had a memorable day, winning with 55lb, including a dozen tench, lots of small chub, some chunky roach, quality skimmers and a bonus 6lb bream (a known resident they affectionately call Stumpy as it has no tail!). My only surprise was not hooking a single crucian carp as there\u2019s loads in there!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I caught best on the short pole with casters and maggots over a little bit of chopped worm and Sonubaits F1 and Supercrush Green groundbait. Also used the new X2 hooks in a size 16 which were spot on!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I don\u2019t get to fish many LAA matches but it was a lovely day at a special venue with a really warm and welcoming group of anglers. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Watch The Live Match!<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n
