Evans Trophy - 19th October 2019

Saturday 19th October saw the return of the Heron’s much coveted Evans Trophy boat competition.
With 8 anglers taking part, the 4 boats headed out in conditions which were slightly choppier than anticipated. Thankfully the wind was short lived and by the end of the event, the seas were much calmer. 

All returned with reasonable catches of whiting and dogfish whilst dabs, bass and a lone thornback were also landed. 

The latter fell to T. Morris and at 6lbs 10.6oz he won the heavy fish pool for the event. Having one of his good days, Tony easily bested the competition and with 41 fish for 33lbs 11.6oz took top honours. 

Meanwhile, both D. Neiles and L. Perry-French returned with a sizeable bass each, Lewis’ offering of 2lbs 5oz currently leads the way for the Derek Line Bass Trophy.

Full results as follows;

1st- T. Morris, 41 fish, 33lbs 11.6oz
2nd- B. Morris, 26 fish, 16lbs 4.6oz
3rd- S. Mannering, 18 fish, 12lbs 7.6oz
4th- D. Neiles, 12 fish, 10lbs 13.6oz
5th- A. Wood, 12 fish, 8lbs 3oz

7th- B. Perry-French, 10 fish, 5lbs 5.6oz
8th- L. Perry-French, 6 fish, 4lbs 6.4oz
