A hot and humid Round Three of the Matrix Commercial Champs at Moorlands yesterday. Didn\u2019t get much sleep or prep done after \u2018camping\u2019 overnight in our garden with a crazy little daughter for her birthday weekend\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Pulled out peg 2 on Bank, so a great peg on my favourite lake on the complex. Mugged two early, but they were nigh-on impossible after that. Had a crayfish short, then spent most of the day down the margins, catching very edgy carp, plus a few bream and F1s, mostly with meat on the hook. I\u2019ve definitely not fished the tidiest of matches as the fish wouldn\u2019t settle no matter how I fed, but thankfully still won the section and was 3rd overall with 163lb.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Well done Ben Townsend who was 2nd with 164lb and Jimmy Brooks who won the day with 168lb. A tight frame!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I\u2019d love to say what rig or feeding pattern was best, but after five hours I\u2019m still not sure! However, I\u2019ve used yellow 14-16 and green 16-18 Slik all day and they\u2019ve been ideal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Round Four is at Meadowlands, which could be really tricky if the weather stays like this! <\/p>\n\n\n\n
