Catches were varied and sporadic, whiting numbers were not as prevalent as expected and those who did find them in numbers had to sift through hoards of undersized fish to fill their bags, dogfish were also present as ever as well as skate, dabs, pout and it was also good to see a few codling landed too.
The biggest of the fish fell to M. Morris with a reasonable ray of 9lbs 11.9oz on Sunday and of his four codling boated on the Saturday, Mick also took the biggest of those at 2lbs 2.7oz.
The numbers game was the tactic for T. Morris who landed 175 sizeable fish over the three days and did well in the event on the whole as a result.
Other highlights included codling from C. Zacharia and G. Mummery, with skate from K. Wilton, P. Gower and C. Zacharia. An impressive pout of 1lb 6.7oz form B. Morris was also brought to the scales.
Overall it was M. Morris who held his own over the three days however and took top spot with an aggregate weight of 95lbs 12.1oz.
