EVESHAM JUBILEE AS

MEMBERS met on the EDAA’s Common Road stretch of the River Avon for the last match of the season and the Last Chance Cup.

A bitterly cold day and extra water made conditions difficult with only two competitors finding fish.

Phil Seedhouse drew peg 10 and targeted bream on the groundbait feeder to win the cup, placing 13lbs 2oz.

Second was Stu Thomson on peg 21 weighing in 4-3 of roach and Bob Haynes was third with 0-4.

The fishery reopens on March 30 for the Easter match and there is a maintenance weekend on Saturday and Sunday with all members requested to attend early on either day.

Charlie Thompson Cup, Worcester canal at Perdiswell: 1 John Davis 6-0, 2 Phil Symnet 2-3; sections: Alan Gardner 0-12, Chris Martin 0-13.
