Jubilee 2nd Round - 6th Oct 2019

Just 5 Herons took on the challenging weather to fish the 2nd round of the Jubilee beach competition on Sunday 6th October. With the winning weight from the 1st round at a paltry 4.8oz for T. Morris, it was all to play for.

On the whole, fishing was fairly slow but dogfish, whiting and an eel were caught with none of the entrants drawing a blank. 

K. Morris took top honours with 5 fish from the hundred steps. Combined with his 3oz rockling from January, it was good enough to take the trophy. Kevin also won the heavy fish pool with a dogfish of 1lbs 9.4oz. 

Fishing nearby, T. Morris was second whilst B. Morris took 3rd spot from the Kings hall. The only near-notable catch was for Ben who returned with a whiting of 1lbs 0.2oz, 3.8oz short of a specimen.

Full results as follows;
1st- K. Morris, 5 fish, 5lbs 2oz
2nd- T. Morris, 5 fish, 4lbs 2.6oz
3rd- B. Morris, 3 fish, 3lbs 7oz
4th- S. Stephenson, 1 fish, 1lbs 9oz
5th- D. Morris, 1 fish, 15.6oz

Overall winner;
K. Morris, 5lbs 5oz
