Dave Cargill memorial/benefit match, Moreton Brickworks, 4/8/13 ~ Tollo wins with a ton

This match, in memory of our late Match Secretary Dave Gargill, was well attended by Eggy members and other friends and Brickie regulars who came to honour Cargy. The main aim of the day was to raise some funds for the Cargill family and pay tribute and remember our good friend Dave. A great total of £310 was collected on a very successful day. 
It's a good job it wasn't all about the fishing because although the usual pegs provided some great weights, there were also very poor returns from some areas. 
The winner was Paul Tolliton with 111lb of quality carp, taken on the pellet waggler, so congratulations to him. From the next peg was our very own Jamie Pickup with another pellet wag dominated carp catch to the tune of 88lb. Well done Jambo.
Another venue regular, in the shape of Lee Pickup, won a section with 46lb, while the other section was very poor with yet another regular (but only for 30years), Andy Lawton, needing only 3 carp and some bits to weigh 18lb. Good effort lads.
The aim of the day was achieved, and not even the last hour rain shower could put a dampener on proceedings. A big thank you for all those who could support the day.
