Bernie Fraser
(Ton Up Baits)
Peg 32 - 107lb

  "Sport Picks up at the weekend "

Fishing on Peg 25 can be bad for your neck, as you spend most of the match watching Peg 24. However, that was not the case today. Bernie Fraser took a positive approach from the starting blow of the horn and never had time to look back let alone right or left. By fishing at 15m and constantly feeding 4mm pellet over the top, Bernie presented soft pellet on the deck and took a good run of fish that totaled 173lb 8oz to record the best weight of the year so far.

Yesterdays winner, Mal Talbot, had drawn Peg 24 and consequently ran to his peg rubbing his hands at the thoughts of adding to yesterdays win. The double was not to be, however, a fine 147lb of fighting Carp headed a brace of Ton up weights this weekend and added a few quid to the coffers. Dan Jones and Colin Storey both recorded 140+lb weights to take 3rd and 4th respectively as 93lb was only good enough for 5th for Ernie Malyon on Peg 34.
