Weston produced the goods again with more than 580lb of fish brough to the scales from the 19 fishing so an average of over 32lb per man. After much heated debate about pegging, which I have to say is always going to be the case at Weston Canal as its such a bizarre shape, we managed to all seem to disagree but drew and got on with it!!
Rob Dickinson had a great last hour at 5m on pellet to pull away from the field with 60.7lb of carp, F1's and barbel from peg 13. Rick 'the coach' Keeley followed advice and fished 16m over early on and then 5m and margins to record 2nd from peg20 with a similar mix. Ian Lloyd declared he had about 28lb from peg 33 but weighed 45.2lb for third and to win his knockout from Ian S (he had declared 30lb but weighed 40.7lb as well, we are rubbish at guessing weights at Weston).
Sections went to Tony Byers with 42.4lb from peg 8 (well done Tony beating Billy Gore off the next peg is going some at the moment!!) and Jeff Gratham (who had a little moan about his peg) on peg 23 with 41.9lb including a lot of smaller fish on pellet.
With 32.5lb not even making the top ten, Weston again proved to be one of the better venues despite the now standard pegging debate there!!!! Oh and fishing past the next pallet there is a bit of a farce on some pegs that we really need to review in my opinion.
