I didn’t see your name in the top 5 Dave, or did i miss it somehow? It was his first attempt and he did well to finish where he did.

It was tough up there today.

I spent a bit of time behind Pete Bailey today and at an earlier practice. I don’t think he could be faulted on mindset, preparation or ability and I’m confident, even though he’ll be disappointed, that we’ll see a lot more from him.

How did Nige get on?

He’d been catching when I left.

With Pete and Darren tied gong into the last round, it was thought that one of them would win, but if they both slipped up, the any one of the following 7 anglers all teid on 9 points needed to win there section to have a chance of nicking the tournament and picking up the trophy and the £4,000 chq, and Grant Albutt couldent of got any close as he tied his section with Kieron rich and both shared 1 point each. Even if thay had had 1 ½ point each, Grant would have still won as he won by a clear point, but if he had dropped a point, he would have lost to Tommy Hiller who had the highest weight of the tournament with 229 kilos to Grants 183.
Tommy’s total of 229 converts to 504lbs, over the 4 rounds. 73 kilo at Colmans Cottage, 34 kilo at Lindholme, and 66 kilo and 55 kilo at Barston.

Top 40 after 4 rounds.
