Long Eaton angler John Adamson (Kobra Feeders) switched to method feeder after a bite-less 3 hours and immediately caught ‘stockies’ from peg B17. He finished with 15 stockies and 2 proper carp for a winning weight of 38 lb 2 oz.
Chris Harrison (Baileys of Warwick) on peg A8 also caught his fish in the final 3 hours, his 5 carp, all falling to pellet presented on the bomb, weighing 30 lb.
