Well Conway in January returned to its windy self with gusts to 70mph overnight it was always going to be tough for those down the windy end but with only 11 'fools' turning up we managed to peg most not exactly out of the wind but not n the brunt of it.
Billy Gore drew next to the point and made no mistakes showing his class to take 43lb 12oz to the scales made up of roach taken close in and a rogue 10lb carp as well as around 10 smaller carp all taken on the bomb fished into the bowl. Dougie was drawn at the wild end (to suit his personality) and after catching roach quite steadily for a few hours they disappeared (probably pushed out by the carp) but he went on to catch a few proper lump carp down the same close in roach line for a very creditable 34lb 4oz weight from a difficult area. Ian Simpson drew in the 'Bahama's' compared to Dougie at the far end with the wind off his back and despite a nasty draft though a small hole in the hedge was able to fish 13m......that said the fish were at 5m and 32lb 8oz of roach and skimmers and a distinct absence of carp was enough for third place.
Result
1st - Billy Gore - 43lb 12oz
2nd - Dougie Walsh - 34lb 4oz
3rd - Ian Simpson - 32lb 8oz
The WL is hotting up now as the first few anglers have now fished 5 matches and its all about dropping points from here on with Billy Gore just sneaking ahead of Phil Henry at present. See the League Tables tab for details
This was our first WBAC match of 2015 and saw the first 4 Knockout qualifies with the above top 3 plus Phil Henry with 23lb 8oz now through to the next round. Rick missed out by just 8oz but not to worry everyone has until the end of April to record a 20lb weight to get into the next round. See the Knockout tab for more details
