Sedges, 26 September (11 pegs)

A great result for one of the club's newest members and current owner of the Psv Cleanest Kit award, Stuart Ashton.
Drawn on peg 12 Stuart started off on the pellet waggler without success before switching to a waggler with double red maggot fished on the deck(ish) at 20m.
He caught steadily throughout the match to record his first win with 27lbs of mostly skimmers and amazingly, no carp!
Across on the opposite bank, Match Secretary Steve Burgess on peg 6 started on the pole at 11m but when he spotted his neighbour and venue expert, Darren North catch a carp on the pellet wag, switched to the same to take 3 decent carp and a solitary 9oz skimmer for 23lbs 9oz and a well-deserved second place.
Darren, on peg 8, also managed to snare three carp to take the third spot with 20lbs 1oz while Paul (should have won) Reed took 4th with 2 carp for 18-11 from corner peg 20 (the peg with the wind blowing into it that was solid with fish)!
