Fished on Wednesday 27th June 2007 - 50 pairs
Due to the amount of rain we had there was a last minute venue change from the Match lake at Barford to Colton. The event saw 48 pairs fishing and one pair fished Railway and the other fished either Colton or Willow lakes. The low water temperatures and changeable weather effected the fishing – which wasn’t great!
Local anglers Paul Yeomans and Gary Kiddell were second and also qualified for the final which is on Saturday 18th August and will be held at Maver Larford Lakes (near Stourport). There’s £5000 & £5000 worth of tackle as the top prize. There will be 50 pairs fishing, with some of the top named match anglers in attendance.
The top pair both caught on hair rigged banded pellet. Paul Yeomans caught down the edge on Willow with paste. And Gary Kiddel caught on the bottom at 13 meters on paste.
