Press report - Clevedon Club Match Sunday 2nd February Main Lake Plantation Complex Kingston Seymour

I didn't fish this weekend due to youngest daughter home from Uni and it was her birthday. Here is the press report I submitted for the above match.

Clevedon Freshwater Angling Club continued with their winter programme and held the latest match on the popular Main Lake on the Plantations Complex Kingston Seymour. A break in the weather was forecast which in turn made it a sell-out event. Competitors began to question the accuracy of weather man as the first few hours were not that comfortable due to the cold wind and rain. The conditions did improve though and as they did the fish made an appearance resulting in one of the most closely fought contests on record. As usual pegs with a cast to an island were the favoured areas. On peg 4 was Club stalwart Kev Perry who used straight ledger or method feeder tactics to net 58lb 4ozs of quality carp. Immediately next to Kev on peg 5 and not far behind him was all-rounder Lance Tucker with 58lb 2ozs, all carp using similar methods. Third place went to in-form angler and Match Secretary Adie Baker who was pegged on the opposite side of the lake on 28 with 57lb 12oz. Mike Owens was not that far away either producing 56lb 9ozs of peg 32. The top silverfish weight went to Mark Bromsgrove with 9lb 13oz of roach and skimmer bream.
