£31k. He caught the biggest fish aswell…. 🙂

31k the winner won , he caught the biggest fish aswell ! 😀

Watched it all live on tv , wow what a struggle it was for all anglers with no numbers of fish wanting to feed even in the last hour. The winner kept his cool all day even after a very slow early 2 hours, well done to him 😎

Ive got a feeling the Internationals and how they approach the venue will catch a lot more fish tomorrow especially Alan Scotthorne on peg 16 😉 😎

I was behind the hatman today and was watching martin on peg 4, he looked like he turned up with a plan in mind and stuck by it. Well Done and well deserved.

The boy done good, but, ‘35‘!!??? Blimey, how hard was his paper round? I suggest he invests in a bottle or three of ‘Just For Men’ and spends a few quid of his winnings on cosmetic surgery asap.

Lol the last post.

His better half looked quite tidy so she must luv him ! 😀 😀 😎

Anyone notice the weigher misread one of the winners weigh ins ? Good job Fordy (presenter) was on hand and clocked the scales go round once straight away ……. could have been controversial ! 😮

Was that Dick Clegg?? whoever it was they are to old for that job, a 10lb carp in the net plus skimmers and barble and he was going to give the guy 3 kilos odd, could have been a massive mistake, really good job the presenter sorted it out

Fantastic news, I am very pleased for you Warren, we had a chat in Angling Direct a week or so ago and you said you would stick to your plan……well it has paid off big time!!! hearty congratulations 🙂 🙂 🙂

Really enjoyed it today al the lads did angling proud. I thought the winner came across really well and fished a brilliant match, To top it all of I’ve just watched the Leeds Rhinos knock wingin out of the RL challenge cup fantastic,

Thats the one ! 😉 Think that was the heaviest fish aswell 😮 8.5 kilo weigh and nearly got given 3.5 kilo in a low weight contest . Good job they had a presenter (Fordy) on the peg who knows whats what ……. every chance 3 kilo odd would have been given if any of the other presenters (non angling) had been on the peg methinks ? 😮

Anyway all that ends well and all that ………

apart from me losing 20 quid betting on peg 1 😮 😮 😮 :rolleyes:

Will be interesting to see what Big Al sucks out of peg 16 tomorrow. 😎
Another England scalp on peg 4 too 😉

Yepp looking forward to it today pedro 😉

Some proper anglers on show , dont think it will get all the hype of yesterday though somehow :rolleyes: :rolleyes:

yeh congrats to warren well done mate its nice to see the winner come off a different peg and good luck to the team england lads today

An event of that calibre the scales people need to be focused 🙁

Well done Warren. He is a really nice as well. Ask him any questions about how he fished any match and he will give you a straight answer, no bullshit just the plain truth.

I’d second that – genuine down to earth guy fully deserved his victory.
Interesting how reputations are formed was interesting hearing him talk to Keith. He’s most known for his pellet waggler prowess – the method he qualified on – but there isn’t anything he can’t do. A day he’ll never forget! Plus the fact it’s the first time he’s ventured out of Norfolk to qualify…
