4th Large Boat Competition 11th May Results and Photos sent in by Marc Duncan.
The club held its 4th Large Boat competition which took place on Sunday 11th May aboard "Ocean Runner" skippered by Ryan Jones. With decision to go' not taken until Saturday lunch time due to easterly winds, we ventured out to the entrance of the harbour in search of bass. After several drifts most anglers had managed to catch and release their 10.
With the last of the flood tide, we then moved further out to the sand for dogfish and congers. Dave Wood caught a nice red gurnard of 15oz and we had a couple of doggies and congers. With the tide having turned and starting to run we had a couple of moves around the Patch in search of pouting, bream and congers. Pete Chamberlain and John Wood managed to find 5 congers each with the rest of us catching a few bream and Dave Wood a small ballan wrasse. Final move saw us on another spot on the Patch and Marc Duncan catching a pollack of 2lb 4oz.
Results.
1st Pete Chamberlain 251 pts, 2nd Dave Wood 219 pts, 3rd Jane Hopkins 208 pts, 4th Marc Duncan 203 pts, 5th John Wood 195 pts, 6th Malcolm Gerrish 179 pts.
