Managed to come second with 52ld first was 69lb we both used corn and plenty of it not bad considering its the first time we have fished this water match time was 10am 3pm by the way try paste on the hook.
The locals who came on after us to fish the open all had liquidised bread and cage feeders plus the new rocket type and were using either banded pellet or mini white boilies, and popped up bread especially if you draw an island peg.
If you draw peg 29 move your box 2 yards to the right so you can fish down the edge to your left under the tree supposed to best peg on lake
