The eight anglers on yesterday’s swindle had a right old time of it, it’s fair to say the pits have been fishing well, and C pit particularly has given consistently good sport this year.
Another draw with room and two sections of four on the odd numbers, with the exception of peg 2. A bold move by the MO to leave peg 12 out with pegs 2, 7, 9, 11 in the first section and 13, 15, 17, 19 in the second, paid off though.
Stuart Leisi is back with a bang, a massive 81lb 2oz from peg 9 taking the first section. The MO taking second from peg 11 with 40lb 9oz, exactly half of Stuey’s total! I can’t remember a bigger weight off peg 9, the room (and access to 10 probably!) certainly helped.
In the top section it was the other form angler on peg 15 taking the win. John Kiernan with a superb 101lb 8oz, and if memory serves, the first ton plus weight outside of 10/11/12. Well done mate. Manchester Mick in second from peg 19 (another end peg!) with a lovely 58lb dead.
Brilliant results with an average of around 47lb per angler! Brilliant fishing by any measure, well done all involved.
