After the first frost of the Autumn, the fish were going to be tough to encourage to feed, but there was a very good turn-out for this match with over 20 of us fishing. The weather brightened up and was quite pleasantly warm after the first couple of hours and with the river carrying about 2 feet of water the colour was good. Winner, from Peg 22, was Brian Tinman with 12 Lbs 2 Ozs. Second, from Peg 75, with 11 Lbs 12 Ozs, was Dave Leary. Third, from Peg 97, with 10 Lbs exactly, was Will Carr. As Paul Harrison managed a further 6 points and Graham Jones had just 4 to add to their respective tallies, this means that Paul with 75 points cannot now be caught by Graham on 62 and so will be crowned as Club Champion for 2018.

The 10th and final match will NOT be the usual Wines & Spirits, but to add a little interest to proceedings it will be a pairs match with pools money hopefully being distributed to a few regulars who rarely make the frame. It should add a new dimension to the contest anyway!
