NAC Report Kelling 7-1-19
With the holiday season now over, many were keen to get
back on the beaches and a good turnout of 19 arrived at Kelling eager and ready
to get started, the forecast for the evening was strong WSW winds turning W and
then eventually WNW, luckily the wind changed for the worse long after we had
finished the match, making the night easily fishable albeit a tad uncomfortable
if you didnt bring your shelter. Pegging was again left and right of the car
park.
Fish were coming in from the off with some good sized
whiting and dabs making an early appearance, along with the odd flounder and
pouting. High tide was at 7.21pm so we were fishing just over the top, slack
and then the first of the ebb. Big bows in line was one of the issues as the
Westerly wind blew line down to the right on each cast, but most managed to
steer away from tangling up with the angler to their right.
Top rod on the night went to Andrew Bunn with 20 sizable
fish 6lb 15 1/3oz fishing on peg 9, second podium spot went to Dene Conway with
18 fish for 6lb 7 1/3oz fishing from peg 2, and final podium spot went to Keith
Shaul with 16 fish for 5lb 15oz fishing from peg 15.
Heaviest flat of the night went to Paul Thorburn with a
nice dab of 29cm and heaviest round fish was shared between Keith Shaul , Billy
Rush and Dene Conway all with a 34cm whiting.
Lots of good sized fish came out and the majority in
prime healthy condition, this can only bode well for the upcoming matches as
the winter league draws to a close.
A total of 196 sizable fish were caught , but you can
probably double that with the undersized about aswell.
Well done to everyone who fished, next weeks match is at
Mundesley please book in asap once post has been put up.
