Windy, “very windy”, would be the best way to sum up the conditions at Horseshoe lake, Sibson, on this summer’s day. It was the 2nd Round of the Wade cup and 3rd round of the individual knockout cup with another great turnout on the clubs own lake. A total of 19 Anglers were in attendance and included the opportunity to welcome some more new faces to the club day events.
Brian Johnson won today’s match with 44 lb 10 oz, in his first event of the season with the club. Brian fished peg 18 using paste at 11m on the pole and a combination of 6mm hard pellets and sweetcorn on the feeder.
Second place was Graham Wright with 41 lb 14 oz from peg 39, fishing a feeder to the far bank and cat meat in the margins. Third place Ray Torrington with 39 lb 4 oz from Peg 17.
