The penultimate round of the Winter League and a huge match winning weight for Dale Shepherd, the biggest of the year here so far. Peg 1 on Strip Lake is either feast or famine but Dale found the fish there in numbers, fishing bread or corn down the side and in open water produced a string of proper carp to 10lb and F1s for victory.
On the league front, Ryan Lidguard has secured the overall win with one round to go. Current league update: R Lidguard 8; J Hall, B Fisk, L Marshall 10; P Wright, C Reilly, 11.
