great heather, i should be there hopefully

fished this comp today at otterspool, it was patchy and peggy like it always is. we fished from10 till 3.30 it was very slow for the majority of anglers. the two end pegs fished quite well and the pegs by the pontoon. Young Mike brooks won with 14 fish for208 points, england international Bill Lindfeild was second on fish countback. Mark Allanson did the best out of us with 5th place. I managed the 2nd biggest fish with a 36cm whiting so got a few bob back. Biggest fish was a 4lb 7oz codling for Ian Griffiths. Rockling were also caught. lovely day, first of many trips this year

Otterspool was the venue chosen to fish our annual top 30 final.
The finalist were the top 30 scorers after 5 matches.
After a very bitterly cold week a 5.5 hr match was not something I was looking forward to but I awoke to a pleasant, calm morning, not a breath of wind and even the sun managed to smile.
Fishing was very very slow with only Mark Allanson & Bill Lindfield catching a small cod each in the first 2 hrs. Rockling started to show and finally the Whiting.
An hr before high Ian Griffiths caught a 4lb Cod the largest fish of the day.

We fished 2 zones and paid out top 6 places continental style, weight calculation.
