                              2nd was 3 from the end of the far bank of lake 3
                              3rd was peg 52 on 2
                              4th was peg 46
                              5th was peg 45
                              there was also another 5or6 ton weights
                              4th and 5th was all barble
                              3rd was made up of everything
                              but not one fish over 3lb
                              1st n 2nd were carp

                                45 is a end peg but the others are not. Although I would rather be on 46 then 45 in a match if I had the choice.

                                Im my experience Monks is a great water and it pretty fair when you leave pegs out and smaller matches can normaly be won from anywhere on lake 1 of the right of lake 2.

                                Its not impossible to win from the middle pegs when every one is in the draw but it is difficult.

                                    Nick, I had to do the weigh in on K section on Sunday (pegs 113 to 121)
                                    I only had a set of 20lb scales supplied by Dave Roberts and after weighing in this lot was well pissed off.
                                    The weights that I mention are from memory and they may be a little out, I know that when I got to peg 121 I had had enough.
                                    113–175lb
                                    114–106lb
                                    115–172lb
                                    116–135lb
                                    115–104lb
                                    116–82lb
                                    117–96lb
                                    118–88lb
                                    119–69lb
                                    120–52lb
                                    121–108lb
                                    I apologize if I got anyone’s weight wrong.
                                    What was noticeable was that the further you got from 113 was the distinct lack of silver fish in peoples bags.
                                    But the same end produced and the weights tailed off accordingly the only weight that was not consistent was Tony Meyer on peg 121 but then he had a spare peg to his right and 3 spare pegs to his left.
                                    Derek Gladwin was in my opinion the star of the section coming very close to nicking it from 113 and he did have Nick Delahey to his left and he is no idiot.
                                    Superb weights for a section.

                                      Sorry Monk,going to get myself in trouble for this,you say its the best silver fish venue in the country,for how long have barbel been classed as silvers?? To me Roach,bream,Dace etc are silvers to me.I do agree with you about it being a good venue.

                                        I can see by that why I don’t like fishing lake 3 though!
