Summer league 2024
Summer league round 1
Kicking off round one saw bright sunshine but a lovely breeze blowing across the res, as always there was fancied areas and these didn’t disappoint for those lucky enough to pull the right draw out of the bag, the fish still need catching when you draw the right area tho and on the opposite bank to us a good battle was under way with only 3oz separating the top two on the day.

Second place Stephen Dykes with 79lb 4oz peg 18,
