Peninsula National Loch Style Qualifier 2011

The annual qualifier that decides who goes on to the National Final and is Sponsored by Snowbee UK from Plymouth, was held in the beautiful setting of Blagdon Lake in Somerset on Sunday 1st May. Loch Style  fishing is in boats that have 2 anglers and drift freely with the wind, which in this case was a strong easterly blowing right down the lake and made a lot of the lake unfishable by boat.
The field this year was particularly strong and included 2 World Team members, 2 Commonwealth Team members, 3 European Team members and 9 International Team members, 1 of which is the ‘Brown Bowl’ winner. This is the trophy presented to the top angler in the Home Countries International events.
The fishing has been outstanding at Blagdon of late but has become increasingly difficult. This was made more difficult by the strong wind on the day. There were several areas of the lake that were holding good numbers of fish but the key area was Home Bay and this held most of the boats all day. Even with the strong wind the most successful method was with a floating line and a team of ‘buzzers’. The winner, Denis Symonds from Launceston in Cornwall, used this to catch most of his fish and later in the day switched to a sinking line and 2 lures to catch 2 more of his 7 fish bag. In second place was Roger Truscott from Liskeard Cornwall, Roger and Denis were boat partners and shared information during the day to catch 13 fish in very difficult circumstances, where the rod average was only 1.9 fish per angler.
The top anglers will now go on to fish the National Final to be held at Grafham Water in Cambridgeshire in September.
