What a great weekend with a cracking bunch of lads that was, thanks everyone you made it one of the best matches

I have been involved in over the years either as a competitor or a marshal. Me Julie was amazing as usual and my daughters Tish, Hayl and Stace x. The lads Ash, Tich, Craig and Ste did the fishery and the match proud, well done lads and thanks for all your hard work and pranks? I knew I would get some payback from all the banter and buckets of water you had off me ;-).

Behind the scenes we all worked hard in putting it all together to try and make it as pleasurable as possible for everyone attending and taking part in the match. Finally if it was not for all you 36 anglers taking part there would have been no match to start with so a massive thanks to all of you for taking time out to have a go. Until next time!
