Hampton Willow 21/8/16

            Norman Batters the fish and the opposition

Hampton Willow was this weeks venue and 12 anglers made the trip.

Split into three sections the weights were close in some sections but the fish were more prevelent in the last section which produced the winning weight.

Norman fishing shallow with pellet put together a weight of 97.04lb for the win followed by Nicky 40.13lb and Eric with 51.10lb in C section.This was enough for Eric to make the podium with 3rd overall - well done mate.

In B section Stevie (close but no cigar ) Coleman had 85.13lb for second overall and the section win.

He left Davey H , Patto and Keiran in his wake and finished almost 55lb ahead of them.

In A section it was a close affair with 2lb separating the field.

Kenny Stuart was the victor bringing 43.02lb to the scales  ahead of  Les on 40.02lb and Brisso with 42.03lb. With SUMO claiming another Drennan North West award.

Sumo fresh from another failure at a Maver Match this attempt was showing off his latest match circuit bit of tackle.

This one is designed to speed up the weighing in process .You simply drop the fish in and guess the weight at the end of the match , removes the need for scales and stressing the fish.

He used it as The Glebe and Willow with a guesstimate of 100lb at The Glebe and 50lb at Willow.

Not sure if it will catch on as he won bugger all at both venues ,

Nice to see one of ours bringing the latest technology in Match Fishing to our attention.
