Rich day for Richie!
After an excellent match the previous day it was a case of after the Lord Mayor’s show as heavy boat traffic coupled with baking hot temperatures and a clear river saw just 3lb needed for a main frame place. Many of the sections won with low weights between 1lb and 2lb but one man who did find some decent sport was match winner Richie Reynolds.
Second place, with 5-8-8 of small chub and dace fell to Kevin Millard at Peg 2. Like the winner, Kevin fished mid river with waggler and bronze maggot.
Third, at Peg 64 with a 4-9-0 tench taken close in on worm was Welsh visitor Clive Branson, fourth was Daiwa Gordon League’s Brian Pollard with 3-13-0 of small chub from Peg 33 and fifth was Preston Innovation’s Ed Warren with 3-8-0 of eels and perch from Peg 51.
