Rose Hutchinson won the match with a total of 10lbs 12ozs, all caught on a 3m elasticated whip. She made a good start on peg 12, with plenty of roach to 4ozs and smaller perch to 2ozs. When she started feeding small balls of ground-bait she started to get a few hand-sized skimmers which were eventually interrupted with a bream of 2lbs 4ozs, which certainly got her excited on the light tackle she was using.

In second place came newcomer Tom Howard who was fishing for only his third time. He fished a 4m whip with maggot on peg 15, for roach (largest 5ozs) and perch to 2ozs, plus a couple of hand-sized skimmers for a total weight of 3lbs12ozs.

Elijah Macauley had 3lbs of roach (largest 3ozs) and perch from peg 10, narrowly beating his brother Sammy who fished peg 9 for a total of 2lbs 11ozs. However, Sammy did catch the heaviest roach of the day which was a very good-looking 7ozs.

Henry Burns fished peg 5, but just couldn't get the small fish feeding consistently and despite having a visit from a carp he only mangaed to put 14ozs on the scales. However near the end of the match, while Henry was walking around to see what everyone else was catching, his dad had a go on a whip with single maggot and latched into a carp of 7lbs 6ozs which gave him quite a few frights before he landed it on a light elasticated whip.
