This years competition was held in near perfect weather conditions the only downside being the water colouration. We had a total of 161 anglers fishing (inc 25 over 65, 5 juniors and 3 ladies).
25 anglers brought fish back for measuring. It was great to see most anglers keeping there fish alive and returning them after being measured.
There were 45 prizes valued at over £3000, any prize not won went on the raffle table. The top angler took home £500 cash ,longest fish was worth £250 and the pairs winners won £150. Most fish came from the West Bexington section and surprisingly from the car park to Dragons Teeth at Abbotsbury.
