4th competition report sent in Ed Taylor.
Twenty anglers fished from Poole on the 4th match a board "Piscary" "Ocean Runner" and "Silver Spray 2". With a flat calm start the skippers instinctively had different plans with them all travelling in different directions searching for as many species as they could A total of twenty five species were caught over the three boats, including some nice gurnard, tope, bass, congers, smoothhound, rays and even the welcome come back of red bream.
A huge thank you to all the skippers competing amongst themselves on the day with the following boat scores:
1st Piscary 1,935 2nd Ocean Runner 1,741 3rd Silver Spray 2 1,681. A fantastic day at sea, with great company, lots of laughs and even more fish.
