Absolutely wild with 50mph+ gusts and only two fools even tried the pole, everyone else relied on the method, bomb or feeder. Billy Gore ran out the winner with 65lb fishing the method with maggot towards the islands and into open water. Ian Simpson, yes, yes I know fishing the method, managed to chuck it somewhere close to the far side enough times to catch for 90 minutes and finish second with 45lb. Rick lost enough to have pushed Billy Gore close but the carp knew where the aerator was and left Rick ruing what might have been with third place and 35lb again all on the feeder.
The best news though was despite the unbelievable winds no broken gear bar Stevie G's landing net that the wind broke, not a fish I hasten to add!
Result
1st - Billy Gore - 65.12 (Long 18)
2nd - Ian Simpson - 44.5lb (Long 30)
3rd - Rick Keeley - 34.5lb (Long 28)
