On Wednesday Tony Foster (PI Bold) added another first place to his Thursday win of last week. Fishing through gales and heavy rain, a foretaste of the week-end weather to come, Tony presented his pellet bait into the corner, and across to the far ban at peg 5 on the Middle, and included carp to 6lbs in his 110-14-0 winner.
Dave Cole (PI Bold) also had a corner peg, number 5 on the Deepdale, and worked pellet into the corner as well as at 5 metres to pick up carp to 4lbs and bream to 2lbs, but was well behind top spot on 44-8-0.

The top four weights came from the Sycamore on Saturday, when competitors had a biting wind to contend with. Jason Elwell (Phil’s Tackle) enjoyed some shelter from the wind behind the conifers at peg 1, and also enjoyed some good sport at the peg, to pick up the top prize. He fished pellet at 4 metres and down the side to put together 109-3-0, with carp to 8lbs and bream to 3lbs.
Andy Williams (Vespe) had to fish into the teeth of wind at peg 33 to net carp to 7lbs on corn at 5metres, on his way to 81-12-0 and second place.

Best the Chestnut was John Francis (R&G) who just behind 4th on 65-13-0.
