Round 2 Result
Well, round 2 saw a last-minute venue change. We were greeted by rough conditions with wind in our faces, so it was decided to move the match to Guinea Gap.
So everyone got parked up and 28 anglers booked on and we did a numbered walk off we delayed the start until 10 o'clock but everyone was set up by 9.30 so we decided to start at 9.45 and still fish till 2. It was a slow start with only a few fish showing which for some of us didn't change but there was a few fish caught up and down the prom with dogs whiting and dabs coming over the rails. The weather was on and off rain showers with a bit of a breeze from left to right and with it being a big tide the pull was quite strong with a lot of fine weed in the water. Soon enough it was the end of the match signaled by a shower of rain just to soak you while packing away. Back to the van going through the damp and wet cards and the results were in.
1st was a tie between Gary Richardson, Jon Forester, and Mike Bishton who All found a dog and a 25 cm dab each .
4th went to Dylan Kensall with a dog and a dab of 24cm.
The biggest fish after a recount went to Jeff White who found a 33cm whiting.
The smallest fish went to the mini species master Dave Radcliffe with a tiny 9cm whiting.
5th Dave Roberts
6th Jordan Roberts
6th Tom Murphy
8th Robert Turner
9th Andy Willmore
9th Chris James
9th Peter Spike
Well done to everyone who placed again it was nice to see some new faces and some returning faces.
As discussed at the presentation next week's match will be switched to Otterspool fishing from 13.00 till 18.00 hopefully the cod will put in an appearance.
