The event was held to support Cancer Research UK and was a complete sell out, 40 pegs spread over two lakes at the Plantation Fishery Kingston Seymour. The match was also sponsored by Ecolab, Cadbury Angling and Veals of Bristol. I believe there were 20 pegs on each lake and overall individuals paid out on each lake with runners up which is fair.
Big Carp man and Commercial Match angler Mark Barlett won off the main lake with just over 162lb of carp mainly on the pellet waggler with Brian Slipper second with 152lb caught on the pole shallow.
On the smaller lake (formally Horseshoe) seasoned all rounder Kev Perry won with 74lb, Kev caught long down the margins on meat and paste, second was Paul Nichols with 41lb.
Each year money is raised by asking people to guess the winning weight with 50% of the takings going to the person who guesses the nearest. P Hill guessed 162lb 5oz and won £235.
Overall the event raised £625.
