6th Shallow Boat competition report and photos by Brian Ansell.
On Sunday 18th May the club held its 6th Shallow Boat competition. The weather on the day began sunny and very warm with a moderate breeze, but sadly when the tide turned it became rough and unpleasant for a couple of hours. 8 club members took part and all caught fish which consisted of bass, black bream, dogfish, pouting, smooth-hound, bull-huss and ballan wrasse. All the fish are measured, weighed and returned to the sea as quickly as possible. AlanMapes caught a nice ballan wrasse weighing 4lb 9oz which was returned to the sea.
Results:
1st Neil Mitchener 90 pts, 2nd Alan Mapes 84 pts, 3rd Andrew Haines 73 pts, 4th Eddie Maynard (13 fish)55 pts, 5th Ady Hulme (7 fish) 55 pts, 6th Paul Watson 50 pts, 7th Adrian Moody 35 pts, 8th Alan Martin 20 pts.
