On the Peg with Grant Merrett and Big Bird

Come and fish with Big Bird and Pro Match Angler, Grant Merrett.
'First Time Fishing's' Grant has been 'bagging up' on the match scene recently -
- 3rd place in the 'On the Flyer' festival, losing out to Andy Bennett (Guru) and Lee Wright (Matrix).
- A 399lb haul match win at Meadowlands Open on Lambsdown Lake.
- Won his lake and 2nd overall at the recent Tunnel Barn Farm Open on Extension Pool with 200lb.
- And just this week finishing 5th in the Guru/Mainline/Lanes Bait 5 day Festival, either side of Brandon George (Guru) and Paul Holloway (Guru) with a final day Match win haul of 250lb at Barston.
- Not to forget that Grant is the holder of the highest Match Weight haul at Barston Lakes with 467lb.
The boys head to Meadowlands Fishery to talk about how Grant approaches his peg, why he choses a certain way of fishing to others, dependant on the conditions, and also how switching up your rig can help you when you're struggling for bites.

I think Grants biggest accolade this year so far, is smashing me up at Makins. Keep it up BB, and keep thrashing that water Grant🎣🎣

Maybe he should need a lesson on how to put fish back in the water, instead of letting it fall from 2 feet high.
