Venue: Lac au Duc, Ploermel, France Date: Saturday and Sunday, May 26th and 27th Only a few weeks ago I was competing at the Anglo Dutch Classic festival in Holland and managed to frame once again out of the 115 competitors.

Feeder Essentials: Browning Jens Koschnick World Champion Feeder Rods
Match Fishing Staff  |  May 29, 2018  |  0 comments
Joe Carass gets his hands on the World Champion Feeder Rods designed by Browning’s Jens Koschnick. I was certainly intrigued when the Jens Koschnick rods were announced late last year. Jens is a formidable angler on the Feeder World Championship scene and does well right across Europe, including a World Pairs victory in Ireland. His credentials are certainly there so Browning decided to team up with him to produce a rod that he wanted.

Match Fishing Staff  |  May 29, 2018  |  0 comments
Joe Carass gets his hands on the new flagship Xitan pole from Browning – the Z16L. Browning’s Xitan Z12 was a watershed moment for the company, in my opinion. Of course Browning has an illustrious history when it comes to making incredible poles, but the Z12 was a game-changer for the modern era. The pole made the whole trade stand up and take notice.

Match Fishing Staff  |  May 24, 2018  |  0 comments
Sunday saw me travel to Southfield Reservoir for the Feeder Masters qualifier – 60 of us battling it out, split into three zones and the winner of each would go through to the final. I drew Peg 65, which was towards the far end of the reservoir. The previous day on the team event had been hard, looking at the weights. Pegs in the 70s seemed to dominate but I still felt positive for a few bites .

Up Close – Malman Cane Floats
Match Fishing Staff  |  May 23, 2018  |  0 comments
Joe Carass checks out the new cane-bristled patterns from Malman Floats. In this era of hollow bristles, it makes a refreshing change to see float makers using cane as a bristle material. I am a huge fan of cane-bristled floats and if more of my favourite patterns had cane bristles then I would use them all of the time. I was really excited when I saw Malman Floats release three new patterns that featured cane bristles and just had to buy some to give them a try.

Up Close – Frenzee Fxt Seatbox Tool Bar: Get Organised
Match Fishing Staff  |  May 17, 2018  |  0 comments
Match Fishing takes a look at a crucial item of tackle that makes keepnet management a doddle. Net management is a critical part of commercial match fishing now that strict net limits are in place on most commercial fisheries. Being able to position three or more keepnets is a common issue, along with having the space to correctly position those nets. The Seatbox Tool Bar from Frenzee is an effective way to position up to five of the company’s FXT Euro Nets in a nice compact way.

One Line Winner
Match Fishing Staff  |  May 16, 2018  |  0 comments
Chris Cameron thinks simple is best in the hunt for match-winning nets of F1s! There is an abundance of theories on the pursuit of our commercial F1s, and this is of course inevitable as they are so widespread and there will always need to be an evolution of tactics to stay ahead of the game. There is a vast complexity to how you approach F1 fishing and there are the obvious forerunners to the tactical parade, but it’s not always relevant as a universal blueprint to success as the variables are vast – water temperature, target weights and the specifics of any chosen venue, to list just a few. It’s the latter of these that Middy’s Chris Cameron will offer a bit more scrutiny to and an insight into his experiences at the popular Manor Farm Leisure in Worcestershire. The normal perceived approach to F1s is to get busy, and that’s REALLY get busy in respect of how many lines you will be planning to move between in any particular match to stay in touch with what most of the time can be a finicky species.
