This match had to be cut short because of the heavy rain and the fact it got to dark to see but the outcome was the same, Pete and Dave battling for top spot again, this week it went Dave’s way drawn on the end peg he fished pole and corn out for 6 carp – 4lb then the last hour he fished down the margin for 10 more – 9lb. Just managing 2nd spot, Pete fished pole and meat out at 12m after a slow start he had only 3 carp in the net with an hour to go but a change to corn on the hook brought him 12 more – 4lb finishing with 64lb 9oz
