The latest Over 55s match took place at S. Peverell today, in much improved conditions from the last match.
First from favoured peg 1, Rich Howcroft weighed 17lbs 15ozs. 4 carp too 5lbs made up the majority of his catch. Pole fished maggots were the successful bait.

Second from peg 7, a peg he knows well, having been on it in the last match, Mark Cottingham returned 7lb 10oz. The majority of his catch came on waggler, fished shallow, with maggot hookbaits.

Third from peg 3, Barry Westlerley weighed 5lb. Mixed silvers, including a perch of over a pound. All on pole tactics.

The next match will be at Abbrook on the 18th Feb. Book on as usual.

Third from peg 4, local bailiff Tim Hunt caught small silvers on maggot for 4lb 12ozs.
