Sunday 23rd June - Summer League Round 3
The match was fished in gale force winds of pole breaking strength (ask Sailor Hill!) and single carp early on was enough to give Duncan Edwards his first ever vistory on the canal from unfancied peg 13. As the slabs did not show in numbers no one came close to catching Duncan. Nathan Underwood amassed a fine bag of silvers from peg 30 for second place, Nathan using a shorter length pole than normal to cope with the conditions. Simon Allen picked his way through the Lower Basin breakers to net 8lbs for third and further extend his lead at the top of the table. There were section wins for Simon Hockaday and Kevin Hill and everyone else was glad to get home and out of the wind.
