That said, conditions varied from the predicted strong SW winds and heavy rain to clear skies and just a gentle breeze. The event was fished for four hours, all the way up the flood tide, with most of it in darkness.
Only 6 anglers ended up weighing in catches but the majority reported landing under size whiting, dabs, flounders and even codling.
However, it was G.S.A.C club member Simon Stephenson who took top spot with an impressive six sizeable fish comprising postage stamp dabs and rockling, one of which was an impressive 0.48lbs!
Of the other entrants to weigh in, B. Morris took the heaviest fish pool with a reasonable flounder of 0.88lbs while D. Kennedy landed a whiting and the others took rockling.
Full results as follows:
1st- S. Stephenson, 6 fish, 1.56lbs
2nd- B. Morris, 1 fish, 0.88lbs
3rd- D. Kennedy, 1 fish, 0.32lbs
