Twenty nine anglers took part in Saturdays encounter at a blustery Calf Heath. Top spot on the day went to co match organiser Mark Greening. Drawn on peg 80 and having recently won off it apparently there was smoke coming off the wheels of his trolley as he made his way to the tins. Greeted by a strong wind blowing straight at him ,Mark went for a beefed up one rod approach to make sure that his method feeder reached the target area. Bites came steadily for the duration of the match as 9 Bream, a couple of Skimmers and a bonus 3lb Tench were landed for a pleasing 35lb. As mentioned the wind was hoofing into the tins which certainly brought a previously tough section to life.Brian Ashley couldn’t believe his luck as he put together a cracking 32lb 10oz of quality Skimmers from un fancied peg 76.All the fish were taken at 20m by the Salop feeder veteran. The frame was completed by Martin Cartridge who put together a lovely bag of mainly Skimmers for 28lb 13oz from peg 12.All the fish fell to pole tactics fished at 11m.
