PAIRS MATCH – HARTLAKE UP & DOWN – 13th March 2022 – (11pairs).

This was the last match of the season and a good turnout there was. 22 anglers attended this rover and the river looked nice with a little colour and some intermittant flow. There were some extra prizes on offer for this one. The most Gudgeon caught which was won with a very impressive haul of 71 fish by Mick Orum. Guess the combined weight of the winning pair was won by Tom Sawyer who was only an ounce out. Fish of the day went to Austin Battell  who caught a Chub of 1lb 14oz.
The fishing was again tough for most but nearly all anglers caught fish. Austin Battell drew number 6 out the hat and was surprised to find his favourite swim vacant. Austin caught fish from the off, although alot of them were very small. There were a few bonus fish amongst his catch, including a couple of decent Roach and six small Chub for an individual weight of 9lb 8oz. This with Peter Hole’s 1lb 15oz made up the match winning weight of 11lb 7oz. In second spot was John Cooper and Roger Trask with 7lb 11oz. Third spot went to Ray Berry and Tony Hyland with 6lb 9oz and fourth spot went to Mick Smith and Mick Orum with 6lb 2oz.
