Winter League Round 7: Sunday 13th February:
It was decided to use the sections 1-20 to see if the deeper water from 3 to 11 would produce better results than the Second Basin. However, it turned out to be a difficult day for those in the narrows as the Upper Basin returned the first seven places. With the strong wind and persistant rain early doors the few bream that were caught fell to the feeder, Simon Allen found the most of our bronzed friends and banked 10lbs 2ozs for the win. It could have been different for Adrian Hill who lost two slabs and thereforehad to settle for second with 9lbs 2ozs. Andy Southey bucked the trend and banked a couple of slabs on the waggler and a skimmer on the feeder for 7lbs 10ozs and third.
Tony Johns netted around 40 roach for 3lbs 9ozs and the section win, and Kevin Hill was king of the nattows, winning that section with three bites and two skimmers for 1lb 6ozs,
