"I'll huff and I'll puff and I'll blow your pole in" seems to be the theme at Conway as the gales returned and more pole sections went for a swim along with a floater, sorry diver......but more on that later.
Ian Simpson drew one past the point and couldn't get the roach to settle but stuck wi
th carp and pellet to snare 9 mainly F1's and some skimmers to add to his roach to weigh 27.9lb to just pip Billy Gore who drew first past the staging and stuck to 6m for his now customary dog roach net along with some carp for 26.2lb and second. Dave Gentile was 2 past the tree on the left and snared a few late carp to add to his silvers for a respectable 21.4lb net and third place.
It really was a grueller with heavy rain and wild conditions which resulted in Steve Brew having 6 sections of pole go in.......4 were rescued before that glug glug glug feeling ensued and Conway swallowed his Tourney Pro 4&5 section. It happened as we were packing up and Steve knew we had Trevor already in the water as our club diver with all the gear, air tank, flippers and the works already in the opposite side looking for Ricks 12m section from a fortnight ago........Trevor was walking up and down feeling for the section for a good while before trying to dive down for a closer look.......problem was he didn't have enough weights on and simply splashed around on the surface........after a bit of barracking he gave up and tried to no avail for Steve's section as well. Conway really is proving to be the pole graveyard with at least 4 x no4's, a no5 and a no9 that WBAC have lost this year.
Result
1st - Ian Simpson - 27.9lb
2nd - Billy Gore - 26.2lb
3rd - Dave Gentile - 21.4lb
