Whitby sea anglers were met by excellent conditions for their 3 hour midweek match. A dieing northerly sea swell with coloured water at most venues meant catches were well up on those of late. Six anglers returned to the scales with double figure bags and both the heaviest fish and bag of the season were beaten. Brian Harland recaptured his early season form and won the match with 7 fish for 25 pounds 10 ounces which is now the heaviest bag of the season. Dennis Thompson came a close second with 5 fish for 21 pounds 7 ounces the biggest of which, a fine cod of 10 pounds 5 ounces, is now the heaviest fish of the season to date.
