MFS - Munkees vs Shandies, The Glebe, 8th September 2016
The motley crew gather! Munkees vs Shandies 2016 and it was an early start from London to get to the 9:15am draw. 2015 saw the Shandies victorious so the Munkees pride was at stake to regain the crown! It was great to see everyone, including the usual abuse from everyone! Today would be the team event, 4 vs 4. The team I was in consisted of Scone, Andy T and Andy Kinder. The Draw The board that was chosen consisted of pegs on Pool 5. My placement was Peg 84 which was a long feeder chuck and also next to Pikey. We would be fishing 11am while 5pm, so plenty of set-up time with the draw being at 9:15am. Set-up I set-up the 11 foot extreme feeder rod with a 30gram gripper mesh feeder. I also set-up a 5m and margin pole line. Bait for the 3 days consisted of worms, casters, 6mm, 8mm and micro pellets, sweetcorn and dead reds. All-In Immediately out on the feeder for a number of reasons. To get used to the bigger cast and to try to dominate the line as I knew Pike
