WBAC Winter League - Final Results

Well, after 9 matches fished through some of the worst conditions we have seen for a few years here are the final results: -

Firstly a few thank you's are in order: -

• John Heald for suggesting, booking and organising it all and also sponsoring it with £100 of his own money.
• Conway Fishing who also kindly sponsored with £100 and put on some food and beers for the presentation on Saturday.
• WBAC anglers themselves for having the foresight to not win the Golden Peg and then allow WBAC to sponsor a further £100.
• Finally to all those hardy souls(fools) who caught 2570lb of mainly roach over 9 matches at an average of nearly 18lb and donated a £1 per match into the final kitty.

Overall £444 was paid in and we were able to payout all members who fished at least 5 matches, that was 15 in total.

The final results were:-

• Winner: Ian Simpson 8pts (2 firsts, 3 seconds - 281lb)
