Report from the Sunderland FAC winter league Round 3 match at Silksworth Lake, Sunderland.

Silksworth Lake, Sunderland | 30/10/2011 | Number of pegs/anglers: 12

Ian Foster went from zero to hero, putting last weeks blank firmly behind him to win the match and erase the bad memories. Fishing groundbait feeder at 30 metres towards the post he caught roach ranging from a half ounce to 12 ounces before switching to the waggler to catch more of the same plus small perch, all fish taken on maggot.

Andy McNeil using the same tactics kept up his good form coming second from the next peg to Ian, he also had the same fish but of a smaller stamp, plus a lucky carp of 7lb (counts as 1lb in Winter series rules).He was fortunate to get it ,not because he was fishing light for roach,but because he cast his waggler out which detached from the adapter and after looking to see where his float went picked up the rod with the carp on. Jammy sod!

Third placed Bobby Nash using mag and wag had roach and perch also to keep up his recent good results.
