Report:booked a peg for the comp last week and had been looking forward to entering my first comp, checked the weather before i left and it was'nt looking good with gale and rain forecast. i thought the fishing gods were going to take it easy on me as it was clear skies on the drive up.
. then as soon i hit the glens i noticed about 2 inch's of snow lying in the fields 
.got checked in and landed peg 75 which was at the far end of the beach. got off to a very slow start with even the chap at peg 74 who was a waterfoot veteran moaning about the lack of bites. after about an hour and a half i landed a 23cm turbot, 
with my card signed and the fish back where he belonged it was time to try and find a few larger fish. this proved harder than i thought as every bait was coming back untouched. 
. at about 6ish i got a double of coalie and flounder was but both just shy of scoring size,then just as we were told to reel in at 7 i landed the dream triple shot of flounder coalie and rockling, which all looked decent size and would have put in with a chance of getting a decent score, but all 3 fell short at just 19cm 
. headed back to the bar to hand the card in was told of a fella that landed 40 fish and had none over the vital 20cm mark. overall a bad evening the office but personaly it was a good night as i did'nt blank and most cards returned were scored in the low 20's, and at least i can say i did'nt get my eye wiped by the season'd pro's....no photo's due to the rain and the fact that most of the time i could'nt feel my fingers
