Smurfit Kappa Group Match (Acorn)

Updated: Jul 14, 2021

Thanks to Shane Pope who invited me to fish in this match, which sees several of the different members of the Smurfit Kappa Group, competing in a team match. I was asked to fill in and make up some numbers.

The match was held at Acorn fishery with 5, 6 man teams competing for section points. I drew peg 29, which I was less than happy with🤣🤣😂.

Once at the peg it was clear that there were a few fish down our end so probably not as bad as feared😊😊😊🎉.

Well after 3hrs fishing I had one small Tench and one small Skimmer🤯🤯🤯🤯.

I started to try just about everything I could which didn't help and with 1.5hrs to go I had landed two more small carp, giving me about 5lb😭😭😭😭.

So in desperation I got a paste rig out of my box plumbed up in the margins. I had one line topkit and two to my right, then one to each platform left and right. I managed a few carp and managed to lose 3 under platforms☹☹.

I weighed 37lb, I think I finished about 11th overall, but did pick up a default section win😊. Our team didn't win not sure which team won, but congratulations to them🎖.

Thanks to all that fished, seemed like a great bunch of guys and I had a good chat with a few new people😊.
