Match Fishing Magazine May-23 Edizione posteriore

Matt Pillay has made it on to the front cover of the May 2023 issue and inside you can see how he fared on a weekday open match on the Islands Lake at Messingham Sands Fishery.

Finally, in our latest free-to-enter competition, you can win one of two fantastic MAP SUV Feeder rods, which together are worth £385!
