In association with Loughborough Soar Match Group. June 29th and 30th, there will be a two day festival held on the the river Soar at Sutton Bonington and Kegworth

With no matches at the minute I went off down Soar lane for a few hours.

Off down the river tomorrow so bit of prep

Keeping things short I balled it at around 10 Mt

The river is gin clear and by now the wind was really gusting and I could see others already struggling with it

Careful it’s hot!

It's August and the temp's outside are in their 30's! what better time to get out and go fishing or is it?

A hard league with the weather against you most of the time but hats off to the lads that set it up and run it, thank you Browning Central really enjoyed it.

One thing match fishing taught me and that is 'preparation'  It's no good trying to get stuff ready the night before!

Next thing I knew he was trying to swing a big Perch in! " Hang on ! no don't swing that in as I gabbed for the landing net!.

'It was going to be tough but boy we could never of predicted just how tough it was going to be'
