A great turn out for yet another successful Danglers match. We all arrived to a cold, gloomy Gorleston with the hope of catching plenty of fish and enjoying some good company, which is almost exactly what happened, just there wernt plenty of fish lol . The match kicked off with a unwanted guest in way of a seal that was only a stones throw away from the edge of the beach. We all laughed at hearing Sherry panic stricken as the seal seemed to have a little twinkle in its eye for young sky and spent the best part of 10 minutes swiming up and down in whatever direction sky was. The funniest thing is hearing Sherry say 'it might eat her'..Now was that the seal or sky, hehe. Poor Fifty+ started with a bang by cracking off on the first cast, we hoped this was not a sign of things to come. Dingit caught the first fish of the day with a dab, but his only fish of the day, hehe...we are all catching you up in the league. The match had begun with a couple of undersized fish coming out but nothing special. I hooked into my first fish, a flounder of 25cms, woo hoo, i was back on form and judging from the non arrival of the fish it looked as if it was a match winner . Little dingit was doing well for the juniors starting his day with a dab and ending on 2 fish to win the junior section. The weed arrived in force creating issues for us all for a couple of hours and slowing down the catching of the fish. We all had a giggle at Bruce's expense after watching him almost get washed away in the shore line whilst cleaning his hands..Why is this funny might you ask? well bruce it would seem has a hatred of dirt..thus feels the need to wash his hands regulary..A FISHERMAN who hates getting dirty , well i laughed and said he reminded me of someone id seen before 'MONK' the ocd clean tv detective...lmao...from here on in, that will be Bruces new name .Good banter continued throughout the day with a drip of fish being caught. Glossit, bless him, lost more sets of gear than the total amount of fish caught today, lol (ok a slight exaduration, but he did lose 4 sets)...As the day went on i caught my 2nd and last fish of the day, a dab and was leading the match on most fish and biggest flat...When a sudden scream from the next peg down, Sy, had bagged himself a 31cm whiting and had a smile on his face that said 'ive won the match' however unfortunatly for Sy as this was the only fish he caught only managed to get him biggest round. Just as the end was ny, i saw Fifty+ running toward Dingit with a fish in his hand, which could only mean one thing, it had to be bad for me. He had mananged to win biggest flat at the last moment with a 28cm Dab. Young Taylor tried his best all day and even though he did not catch any fish, he came in handy by being a weed pulling off wiz on mine and shez's lines. Tricky enjoyed himself that much that it knocked the stuffing out of him, so much so that he could no longer keep his eyes open and promptly fell asleep on his fishing box.
All in all a great day and it was a pleasure to socialise with all of the danglers members and for me, meet some new faces i had yet to meet. I would like to thank all of you that turn up and support our club new, old and future. It is a pleasure to see so many of you young and old (hehe) oh and female enjoying the matches and the good company. May long it continue. Well done to all and well done to the juniors who no matter what continue to be well behaved, helpfull and able to show the experienced fishermen, how to catch fish..lol. Looking forward to the next one.
