Monday Night Sweepstake

30th June 2008
Another grueller with very few fish caught - Bob Moss and Brian Woods shared top spot with 3lb 15oz each - both with good Tench and a few small fish. Third was Graham Johnson with a 2lb 12oz Roach/Bream hybrid and no other fish. The only other person to weigh-in was me, having caught 25-30 small Roach in the margins on pinkie for 1lb 6oz.

Weights on the match length are suffering and there doesn't seem to be an obvious reason. There are plenty of fish in evidence, but they simply aren't feeding. Looking at the weather forecast it seems rains are predicted for the rest of the week - maybe an influx of fresh water and some sustained pumping will trigger some feeding - the anglers need it, even if the fish don't.

RESULT:

1 Joint - Bob Moss & Brian Woods 3lb 15oz
3 - Graham Johnson 2lb 12oz
4 - Mark Rimmer 1lb 6oz
