Claire V. Weniger 16th June 2019

The SW wind was a little stronger than anticipated for the 9 anglers taking part in this year’s Claire V. Weniger Boat Competition on Sunday 16th June. Nonetheless, boats were launched and expectations were running high.
Unfortunately though, it was very quiet indeed for most. Despite a few rays showing as well as smoothhounds and dogfish, the general catch rate was very slow indeed.
In fact, the only boat to have any resemblance of doing well was partners, D. Perry and K. Morris.
Kevin had 6 dogfish whilst Dave managed 13 fish including 2 smooth hounds to 6lbs 18.8lbs for the win.
Andy Wood also boated a hound of 6lbs 9.8oz whilst the heaviest ray went to Phil Gower at 6lbs 1oz.

Full results as follows;

1st- D. Perry, 13 fish, 24lbs 1.6oz
2nd- A. Wood, 2 fish, 7lbs 15.6oz
3rd- K. Morris, 6 fish, 6lbs 15.4oz
4th- D. Neiles, 5 fish, 6lbs 10oz
5th- T. Morris, 2 fish, 6lbs 5,6oz
6th- P. Gower, 1 fish, 6lbs 1oz
7th- B. Morris, 2 fish, 5lbs 15oz
8th- M. Roach, 1 fish, 5lbs 1.8oz
