The MNTFA put in two teams for the Inter Club Floating line competition at the weekend and I made up one of the places.
Congratulations to a team from Invicta who won on the day. It was a hard day as the fish were very tightly shoaled and difficult to catch. Having said that as usual 3 people managed to bag up but with 5 fish I must have been up there shouting.
My partner was Ystlyn Smith from GWFFA and although he had not done much competition fishing before he was good company and did great with 3 fish and above average on the day.
We managed to find a very small shoal between the nature reserve and L buoy and with 5 drifts over a tight shoal we managed 5 fish. With 3 fish too on one of the last drifts of the day off W buoy, it was hard going for the rest of the day.
I was using a washing line with a tequila booby on the point and two diawl bachs on the droppers. It was like fishing a dry fly as they came up and took the booby off the top - shocking!
With Ash, Powie and John in the team too we managed 10 fish between us but no prizes!
