Match Report

11 anglers turned up for the second leg of the pole only match on Stemps. The weather was dry, cold (but not frosty) and windy. We had had frost on the previous nights and a hard match was expected. This proved to be the case as no carp were caught and catches were roach of varying sizes along with the odd skimmer.

The winner, Glenn Riley fished the long pole on peg 11 caught 2-7-8 of roach along with some skimmers, which he managed to catch in the last hour.
