Dillington Pond – JMA Summer League – 29th June 2008
Me and Andy went to Alan Dunn’s 40th barbie on Saturday night and as a consequence I was feeling really rough this morning. I got to the Crown for the draw and had one of Tommy’s excellent brekkies which went someway to sorting me out. There was another good turnout with 14 anglers fishing. The Yeovil muggers, Scott and Ashley turned up …

Everybody wanted peg 1 (where Scotty was last match) and Justin drew …

The peg is probably the second best peg on the pond (behind peg 11) and is one of the famed corner pegs and …
Dillington Pond – JMA Summer League – 1st June 2008
After the disappointment of Perry St last week I was really looking forward to getting back on my favourite venue, Dillington pond. We had a fairly large turnout of 16 anglers too, including Scott Russell and Ashley Tomkins who don’t fish the pond much but have enjoyed plenty of success when they have. I drew peg 11 on the road side and …
