Tuesday 3rd June: Pairs League (Evening) Round 3
It was another scratching match as the bream failed to show in numbers. It was very tight in the Upper Basin with Tony Hillas coming out on top banking 4lbs of silvers, whilst partner Matt sampson took second place in the Lower Basin, giving the 'Brendon All Stars' a much needed victory.
Not all the slabs have moved up to the narrows as Simon Allen demonstrated with a 5lb 3ozs season best speciman and a further 7lbs of silvers for the Lower Basin section win. However, 2lb 2ozs from partner Dave Allen in the Upper Basin meant 'Me and My Boy' had to settle for a tied second place with 'AB Angling'. Andy Southey bagged 3lb 11ozs of silvers to finish second in section and with partner Beau Charnock sneaking fourth in the Lower Basin section it was enough for a share of second, and see 'AB Angling' go joint top of the league with the 'Bude Bay Pirates'.
Its a double header a in a week with matches on Sunday and Tuesday which should really shape the league going forward and gives a chance for some of the big teams to get thier challenge.
