Summer League R2

Sunday 31st May
Summer League Round 2 - Tom King Trophy

Mark Gratton was dismayed to draw the second longest walk of the day due to his bad knee, but things soon changed for the better as peg 34 was drawn as a golden peg.  Mark went on to amass 1oz short of 10lbs, using a combination of short pole, tip and waggler to win the Tom King trophy and the £100 bonus.  Andy Preston fishing off adjacent end peg 35 banked a number of skimmers and silvers for a second placed net of 8lbs 6ozs.   Nathan Underwood completed the Second Basin shut out with 7lbs 1ozs of silvers taken on the pole.

There was a true section win for Paul Braund who won the Lower Basin with 4lb 13ozs of silvers taken on the short pole from peg 18, and Mat Sampson had a default Second Basin section win with 5lbs of silvers.
