June Sunday 1st Cley
June Sunday 1st Cley 0900-1400 (low water 1100)
With a week or so of great fishing on the North Norfolk coast, anticipations were very high among the 10 members who turned out for this match. We were greeted by a flat calm crystal clear sea and humid, damp conditions, possibly perfect conditions for the smooth hound action we all wanted.
The field were spread well apart with several opting for the left, some straight over from car park and the rest optiing for the long hike to the wreck and beyond..
As the match progressed it became sadly apparant that the fish were few and far between with only small Bass and the odd flounder showing up, no smoothhounds today..
After a very quiet 5hrs the winning weight came from Sam Attew with 3 fish for 1.14, closely followed by Dene “Smoooth” Conway also with 3 fish for 1.12 2/3, our junior angler Henry Randall secured third place with 2 fish for 1.6 2/3 and sneaking into 4th was Dennis “whinger” Hunn also with 2 fish for 1.3 1/3.
Richard “Golden Bollox” Ives peaked at 5th place with one fish, along with John Neave in 6th. Four angler failed to catch, including our illustrious leader Tony “Genesis” Chidwick, so all in a dissappointing session with the smutts not showing up, lets hope they have’nt left for another year and hopefully they will make a show on Friday for our evening match…..
